Reviewed: I Won't Let You Down (OK Go song)

5x expanded by EditorE (talk). Self nominated at 20:49, 21 September 2014 (UTC).

I will finish reviewing this page in the next 24 hours. My first glance is that the sourcing is good, but I'm seeing some deadlinks. Hook is interesting, accurate and well-cited (if deadlinks are replaced with archives). Seems like adequate expansion. Sent nominator a prelim message here. Looking for a QPQ. Will stare at this further tomorrow, to doublecheck numbers and to check for close paraphrasing. BusterD (talk) 04:25, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

- I'm sorry, but which unarchived links are dead, because of the sources look fine when I access them? 和DITOREtails 22:07, 27 October 2014 (UTC)
  - BPM was giving me 404 messages last night, but looks good this evening. Thanks for the QPQ. I'll have this done by my bedtime. Interesting question below. BusterD (talk) 00:15, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

Should Watts be described as British-American as in the infobox at his article? He was probably an American citizen at the time he made the recordings. -- Brianhe (talk) 18:16, 27 October 2014 (UTC)

I do agree with User:Brianhe above, that Watts is more properly a British-American. Overall this is quite a nice expansion, which far exceeds 5x. Newness is good (nominated two days after expansion began); seems properly cited, neutral based on sources and meets editorial standards, including not closely paraphrasing, based on my clickthrough. Likewise I see no issues with the hook, which is quite concise, interesting (because of the connection of a famously dead spiritual figure appearing in synth/dance music), and neutral. QPQ is met and no image present. Nicely done. Don't why this languished so long waiting for a reviewer... BusterD (talk) 03:15, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
