Written like an advertisement? edit

How can this article be written like an advertisement? It only states facts. Please consider removing this tag.--Sylvia Anna (talk) 19:02, 30 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

The phrase "... the latter containing a booklet with exclusive studio pictures and liner notes from Lukather and producer CJ Vanston, as well as a personal message from Lukather." sounds like something taken out of a press release from the record company rather than an encyclopedic article. – IbLeo(talk) 19:53, 30 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
And how would you write that? I thought it would be useful to say how the limited edition version is different from the ordinary version.--Sylvia Anna (talk) 20:34, 30 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
I honestly don't think it's very important. As a reader I would be more interested in the history behind the album, the musical style, the critical reception, etc. Did you ever have a look at WP:ALBUM, there is lots of advice for writing good articles about albums? Please don't get me wrong, I am a longtime Toto fan and I hope I didn't offend you. It was honestly not my intention. – IbLeo(talk) 20:45, 30 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
I just don't think that tag is justified and useful. What the sentence says may not be that important, but it's certainly not an advertisement. I know that this article is lacking. I created it shortly after the album was released. I am not the right person to write about musical style and it is not easy to find critical reception about this album that could be used. The article is not great this way, but it is a beginning. Would you agree to remove this tag again?--Sylvia Anna (talk) 22:35, 30 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
Alright, I have removed it as I see you had no intention to advertise. I also slightly rephrased the lead section. In best cooperation. – IbLeo(talk) 05:27, 31 December 2010 (UTC)Reply
