On the last FAC, I was nearly close to getting the article being promoted to FA, but due to the problems with the rationales with the samples and some of the sources, I had to rework both to resolves those issues. This time I change some of the samples and detailed the rationales for both of them. If the samples still don't meet the criteria, I'll remove them. Other than that, I'm ready again for the FAC this time. Erick (talk) 22:27, 16 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
  • I would link Luis Miguel on the first instance in the body of the article (i.e. In 1997, Luis Miguel released his twelfth studio album).
  • Unlink “bolero” in the composition section as you have it linked in a previous section.
  • I would move the link for pop music to this sentence (He indicated the upcoming album would be a return to pop recordings) as it comes before the current link placement.
  • I do not think Miguel’s name is required in the titles for the audio samples. I think the song titles alone are good.
  • Remember to link the singles in the body of the article. For instance “Sol, Arena y Mar” is linked in the lead, infobox, and track listing, but I do not think it is linked in the actual prose of the article. I would check all four singles to make sure about this.
  • For this sentence (A music video for the track was filmed in San Francisco, directed by Rebecca Blake), something about the last part “directed by Rebecca Blake” seems awkwardly tagged on the end of the sentence. Maybe something like “Rebecca Blake filmed the music video for the track in San Francisco”? The same comment applies for this sentence (In the same month, the music video for the fourth single, "Amarte Es un Placer", was filmed in Bel-Air, California, directed by Alberto Tolot.) too. I am not saying you have to use my suggestion, but something about the current wording is a little off to me.
  • For this part (and more than 101,800 spectators attended his eight shows in Chile, the largest audiences of the year for an artist), I am assuming it means the largest audiences for the year for Chile in particular not worldwide? I just wanted to clarify that part.
  • There is an additional space after the comma for this part (gave it two-and-a-half out of five stars,  noting that from the title).

Great work with the article. I hope that it gets more attention soon. Once my comments are addressed, I will be more than happy to help. If possible, I would greatly appreciate any feedback on my current FAC. Either way, have a great rest of your day and/or night! Aoba47 (talk) 16:31, 29 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Aoba47: Alright, I made some changes to the article per your suggestions. How does it look now? Erick (talk) 16:31, 30 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
Lead
  • I know I've been gone for some time now but is using a translation template the new norm for non-English media titles? I haven't seen any recent FA's with this template but the usual English title of said article in brackets.
  • The lead says it is a pop album with R&B, pop ballad, and Jazz influences but the infobox list other subgenres Bolero and disco.
  • It would look more appealing to say: and the title track "Amarte Es un Placer" instead of just wikilinking to the song under the guise of the title track for better flow.
  • Continuing from the singles sentence and avoiding repetition, just wikilink the tour under the guise of "embarked on a world tour".
  • Why wikilink music critics and not List of music recording certifications when you discussed the commercial success of the album in other territories? I believe music critic, which is fine linked, is less confusing than the number of music certification requirements that are different in other territories.
Body
  • Correct me if I'm wrong, but isn't it "In October 1998" and not "On October 1998"?
  • It would be best to add that Armando Manzanero confirmed that he was working with Luis Miguel on a new album to a reporter from El Siglo de Torreón.
  • There's a difference in the writing of Marcos Lifshitz's song and the tracks of this album in the composition section.
  • It would be nice to know how many weeks "O Tú o Ninguna" was atop of the Hot Latin Songs chart.
  • There's a comma error right before footnote #5 in the composition section that needs to be fixed.

There were some things that caught my eye that I pointed out in detail above, but overall the article is in good shape and well-sourced. – jona 15:25, 6 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I'll get to work on this on Sunday as I'm off work that day. Thanks for the review btw! Erick (talk) 02:37, 8 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
@AJona1992: Thanks for the review. Just two questions: Could you elaborate on what you mean regarding Marcos Lifshitz and where the comma error is? I'm having trouble finding it. Erick (talk) 01:38, 10 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Coordinator notes

[edit]

This seems to have stalled with minimal review and support thus far. I've placed it on the Urgents list, but it will have to be archived in the next few days if it does not receive some more attention. --Laser brain (talk) 12:13, 5 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Laser brain: Isn't a bit preemptive to archive considering AJona1992 just commented a few days and I just replied to his comment yesterday? Not to mention I already asked Simon Burchell to do a spotcheck and he agreed to do it on his free time? If nothing, can I at least re-open a new FAC? Erick (talk) 13:29, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, with this near the bottom of the list and still being quite a ways off, we'll need to archive. With a longer queue of nominations, the community has consistently requested that we are more active in archiving older nominations that aren't "almost there". Hope this helps. --Laser brain (talk) 16:20, 11 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]
