Wikipedia:WikiProject Biography/Peer review/K-os
Expanded significantly the article over the past week. I'm hoping to get this article to FA status, and just wanted to find out the project critique and suggestions. My only concern are the chart information for the singles, which I'm having a hard time finding. I guess thats it, thank you in advance. - Tutmosis 03:01, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
Very nice indeed! Your osmosis with FAC reviews has obviously significantly helped you! The article is comprehensive and well-written. I also liked the prose. I'm not a native English speaker, but I think the article has a nice article flow. Some minor remarks, which may be subjective and, therefore, not correct by default:
- How is "k-os" written when it is in the beginning of a sentence; the article is "K-os", but when you start a new sentence with his name, you write "k-os" and not "K-os". Which one is the correct form?
- Your article is filled with criticisms and various assessments of his albums, but I'd like to have some more comprehensive assessements of his musical style and influences in general. What about creating a new section?
- You have just one photo. Photos are not a prerequisite for FA status, but can you add at least one more?
- You have a variety of source, but only web. Are there any printed sources available? I ask because they are higly esteemed in FAC.--Yannismarou 08:27, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
- I did not find any mention of this in my research, but the article before I edited it states his name is always lower case so I went with that. Regarding consistency with lower case, I believe I previous fixed it [1] and really can't find anymore.
- The problem with this artist is in inteviews his always throwing out names of artist so he himself is not really consistent with his influences but I can definetely try to get more information. Also I thought about making a section, but it would just repeat the Music Career which basically already says "his songs always change genres and he sings and raps". Also, because he always talks about change and positivity in regards to his music and so do his reviewers, I didn't want a section dedicated to what a positive guy he is which might come off as POV. I think the lead and Music Career mentions the previous, but I'll go back and make it clearer and try to dig up anything more.
- I know very little about photo research and since most images about musicians are fairuse, I didnt want to throw another one in. So I'm just waiting for an experienced user to suggest something.
- The article primary sources are newspaper articles which also happen to have mirrors on the web. Considering his a musician, been around for a short time, and not a legend I doubt I'll find solid sources like books.
Anyway Thank you very much for your nice comments and good pointers Yannismarou! - Tutmosis 13:54, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
- Little update, I added images per your request and added some audio samples. I'm still working on more information regarding him, but in the meantime anyone else have any comments or critique? - Tutmosis 18:41, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
