[edit] GA review

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


This article is in decent shape, but it needs a little work before it becomes a Good Article.

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:
    In the Release - Music video section, "in contrast to the studio recorded radio edit released as a digital single", what does that mean? "The music video is directly the performance featured on the DVD for the Across the Great Divide tour...", wouldn't it be best to re-write the sentence to "The music video comes directly from the featured performance of the Across the Great Divide tour DVD". If not, then it was a suggestion pitch. Is "Glasgow" a recording label? If not, what exactly is it linking to? New section, Critical responses, shouldn't "TheScene.com.au", "CitySearch Sydney" and "Fastlouder" be italicized? Can a little more information be added to the Track listing section? If not, I will not make it a big deal to the review.
    B. MoS compliance:
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. References to sources:
    Wouldn't YouTube violate source policy, per here?
    B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:
    Does Reference 6 cover all the info. about the music video? In the charts section, "The song's critical response has been mostly positive, though so too were the two prior singles from Dream Days at the Hotel Existence, which both performed poorly in the charts" and "Like these two, "Who Really Cares" was released to radioplay and music video stations, but with little inclusion in circulation, leading speculators to believe the single will follow "I Don't Remember" and "Nobody Sees" with poor charting performance", need a source to back that up.
    C. No original research:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:
    B. Focused:
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
    B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
    If the statements above can be answered, I will pass the article. Good luck with improving this article! Also, contact me if the above statements are answered.

Without going into OR, there's not a lot more that can be said of the track listing, because nobody's reviewed the single as a single, nor the music video. As to YouTube, it can be used as a source, if it's an officially released video, and the purpose of using YouTube is to link to the actual video, not a collection of arbitrary information. I'll see if I can address all of your concerns asap. I think I'll need the full week though. I'm pretty busy. --rm 'w avu 14:02, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
That's alright, if info. can't be brought about the song, then that's fine. As for the YouTube stuff, I was asking it if violates policy or not. The full week it is. Good luck with the article. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 00:35, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Responses to prose stuff.

  • I removed the first phrase you quoted; it's not relevant to the video.
  • 2nd quote reworded.
  • Glasgow is a location, removed as not really adding much.
  • Put a new section in.
  • No, no italics as they're not magazines/newspapers, they're websites (see WP:ITALICS).
  • That's all the track listing there is...:)
