General

• Some problematic links here

@Calvin999: All  Done — HĐ (talk) 13:27, 14 March 2015 (UTC)

Lead

• Each of the three paragraphs in the lead starts with 1000 Forms of Fear'. Try to use other ways like "It" or "The album", too.

•  Done

• 1000 Forms of Fear also incorporates → It also incorporates

•  Done

• songwriting skill as well as the album's lyrical content → Is this kind of one and the same?

•  Done

• Remove repetition of "atop" in two successive sentences. "charted" / "peaked" ?

•  Done

• The lead feels slightly sparse. How about some promotional performances being included? Awards won for the album and how "Chandelier" was Grammy Nominated.

•  Done

• was made available in January 2015.→ Slightly ambiguous as to what is it available for.

•  Done

Background

• managed to start a career → and established a career

•  Done

• Any info as to why she decided to go back to singing? First paragraphs says she retired, second says she recorded vocals for a possible new album. There's no in-between.

• Actually it has already been mentioned. Sia signed to RCA Records with the release of the album as a contractual obligation.

• Ah okay. I was getting a bit confused.  — ₳aron 09:25, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

Singles

• There's lots of repetition of "the single". Five times in the first paragraph alone.

•  Done

Promotion

• Sia recruited Maddie Ziegler → Sia recruited Ziegler

•  Done

• Kirsten Wiig is also an actress (arguably better known as)

•  Done

Critical reception

• It's quite quotey, try to paraphrase some of the quotes so it doesn't read like a list as quotes.

• I tried the best as I could.

Certifications

• You can include United States and write 177,000, just leave the certification blank.

• It will, in my opinion, look not really nice. HĐ (talk) 05:45, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

• Most articles include it, because it's a sales and certifications table, not just certifications.  — ₳aron 09:25, 16 March 2015 (UTC)

References

• Some of the work parameters in the references are not linked the very first time, perhaps one or two after. Such as Billboard being linked in ref 5 but not ref 3.

•  Done

• NY Times in ref 4 needs linking (it's linked in 12)

•  Done

• 56 for example is missing Billboard
• Just go through the refs and check them again.

•  Done

Outcome
