The studio should be cited in the parameter for it instead
WP:OVERLINK of Who Is Fancy in the infobox
"is a song recorded by American singer" → "is a song by American singer"
"Fancy co-wrote it with Jonathan Rotem," → "Fancy co-wrote it with J.R. Rotem,"
"with production from J.R. Rotem." → "while the former of the three handled production."
"released it as a single" → "released the song for digital download and streaming as a single" with the appropriate targets
"and lyrics about Fancy," → "and lyrics about Who Is Fancy,"
Mention the critical reception as the first sentence of the second para instead, giving that the song's title to begin the sentence though
"and number 26 in New Zealand," → "and number 26 on the New Zealand Singles Chart," with the target
Gold should not be capitalised and the target should solely be on that word instead
"was released a day prior to it" → "was released a day prior to the single release, featuring the trio in animation"
"The trio performed it" → "Who Is Fancy, Trainor and Grande performed it"
Add what year the performed it on the show

"Jake Hagood met Meghan Trainor in Nashville" → "Jake Hagood met Trainor in Nashville" with the target
Target single to Single (music)
"Hagood wrote" → "He wrote"
"with Jonathan Rotem, Jason Gantt" → "with J.R. Rotem, Jason Gantt"
"with production from J.R. Rotem." → "with production being solely handled by Rotem."
"He recorded the song" → "Who Is Fancy recorded the song"
"with Trainor and Ariana Grande." → "with Trainor and Grande."
"because of Fancy's enthusiastic" → "because of Who Is Fancy's enthusiastic"
"during its recording." → "during the recording."

"he announced Trainor's role as a feature" → "he announced Trainor to be featured"
"On November 12, Grande unveiled its artwork" → "On November 12, 2015, Grande unveiled the song's artwork"
Order of formats and single statement is wrong way around
"on November 23" → "on November 23 of that year"
"in the United States" → "stations in the United States"

Retitle to Composition and lyrics
"of "Boys Like You"'s chorus," → "of the chorus of "Boys Like You"," on the audio sample text
Sure you can't add some info about the chorus itself on the sample?
Wikilink doo-wop to itself and target pop to Pop music
"with lyrics about Fancy" → "with lyrics discussing Who Is Fancy" to avoid repetitive wording
"describing it as a" → "describing the track as a"
"charm" in which she delivers" → "charm" that sees her deliver"

Italicise Vulture and target to Vulture.com per MOS:LINK2SECT
"where it debuted at number 34 and peaked" → "debuting at number 34 and peaking"
"certified Gold in the country" → "certified gold by Recorded Music NZ (RMNZ) for selling 7,500 units in the country" with the target
"also reached number 18 on the US" → "further reached number 18 on the US Billboard"

"of Fancy, Trainor and Grande." → "of Who Is Fancy, Trainor and Grande."
"and flirt with them" → "while flirting with them"
Target 21st season to Dancing with the Stars (American season 21)
"in which Fancy wore" → "for which Who Is Fancy wore"
"Trainor and then Grande." → "Trainor, and then Grande."
"reported that Fancy's choreographer" → "reported that Who Is Fancy's choreographer"

Switch the certtable so shipments figures is not listed at the bottom, since it is totally irrelevant to the article

Nice job on the archiving!
Copyvio score looks great at 23.1%
Ref 1 is missing a space after Trainor,
Ref 5 should cite numerous countries to verify the release was various and add distributors in brackets; (US), for example

Is it fine to just change it to Google Play? Which I think has one link that works in every country.

Yes, since that is considered reliable isn't it? --Kyle Peake (talk) 20:43, 13 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

On hold after a review of this nice short article. --Kyle Peake (talk) 17:36, 13 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the review, I was a little cranky during our last GAN so I apologize and good to see you back haha.--N Ø 18:30, 13 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

MaranoFan You're def on point mate, got a comment for you before this passes. --Kyle Peake (talk) 20:43, 13 July 2020 (UTC)Reply

Yup, Google Play is considered reliable and I've replaced iTunes with it already. The only thing confusing for me was the suggestion that Jonathan Rotem's birth name shouldn't be used, but I removed it anyway. Cheers.--N Ø 02:46, 14 July 2020 (UTC)Reply
