GA Review

[edit]

Hi, I'll be reviewing this article. I was a fan of Madonna in high school (even had a picture in my locker for a spell), but I'll try not to let my bias influence this GAR :) To save us both time, I'll make minor edits as I go along, and bring the other stuff up for discussion here. My wiki-plate is pretty full, so the review may take a few days. Cheers, Sasata (talk) 02:59, 7 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Update: I've done a fairly extensive copyedit of the prose. Review the changes and revert anything you don't agree with, and also check if I've inappropriately altered the meaning. Will be back in a day or two with the actual review (and probably more copyediting). Sasata (talk) 02:56, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Wonderful! I checked and its fine. --Legolas (talk2me) 06:52, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, have made a few more small tweaks to the article prose. I checked out some of the online sources, and mostly everything checks out. One comment:

  • "It was also featured on the promotional-only instore video compilations It's That Girl and She's Breathless.[24][25]" These citations are to Wikipedia articles, which is to be avoided. Can you find another print or web source that says the same?

    No edit wars etc.:
  5. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    I believe the fair-use rationale to be appropriate for the two images included.
  6. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

  1. Sorry for the late reply. I replaced that link with that from Andrew Metz's book. It has a list of all the videos and the tracklists. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:57, 22 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
