@HereIGoAgain: The remainder of the review is on hold pending resolution of the two priority items below. I understand this is your first GAN, so I want to provide as much feedback as possible, but these are major blockers. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 07:21, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Please do anything to make these sources available as the best as you can. Try copying some words or a sentence from the newspaper material as an offline source and see what is available. If nothing found, then I would recommend citing them as an offline source. The references are from Oslin's archive scrapbook material that holds every review from magazines and articles dating from 1986 through 1988 that might have been out-of-print or were less-significant to publish at that time.

I have supplied what I can (see below), but I don't think the specific magazines and press releases are available from databases, @HereIGoAgain.

I know that there are a lot of really useful music sources like this (for instance, a shadow library blows ProQuest out of the water with its archive of Radio & Records), but I know too that at some point someone will give you this note, so I felt it was best that you know now.

Fair enough... so the remainder of the other references other than newspapers.com/proquest source duplicates that you've found, I think we can leave the rest as offline sources at this time. Until some information of some article wording might show up, it would take a couple of more years until it gets noticed or a different source is needed. I've already taken care of the references [12] and [46] to the actual metadata. HereIGoAgain (talk) 22:56, 25 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Done! WordPress blogs are removed and are cited into offline sources! All priority items are now fixed in response to WP:COPYVIOEL and WP:Offline sources. HereIGoAgain (talk) 06:14, 28 August 2024 (UTC)Reply

Did you know? If you fancy doing so, I always have plenty of GA nominees to review. Just look for the all-uppercase titles in the Television section. Reviews always appreciated.

Copy changes

Sourcing and spot checks

Priority item: WP:COPYVIOEL stipulates that extenral links to copyright violations are forbidden. There are 18 links to a WordPress blog as references. It is going to be difficult to identify appropriate links or database IDs for some of the music-specific sources. This sentence contains citation information for the various reviews that I could find in Newspapers.com or ProQuest.^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5] For the remainder, I could not identify appropriate material. What you can do is cite the publications as an offline source.

Priority item: Reference [12] and [46] (actually duplicated) is a bare URL, which is not permitted for a GAN. Please add citation metadata and consolidate into one reference.
