As the original GA reviewer I'll be happy to take a look at this again. Will probably finish it tomorrow.

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    "lead singer of the band Seether," - I'd consider dropping this on account of too many commas in one sentence. Either that or split the sentence into two
    "their previous record managed" - did you mean manager?
    "Lee expressed "no intention of hurting [Morgan]" during an interview" - when did this interview happen?
    "he[r lover]'ll" - i'd replace this
    Perhaps wikilink "Canada.com" to Postmedia News
    'For the week ending September 2, 2006, "Call Me When You're Sober"' - the full song title is already mentioned in the previous sentence so repeating it so soon doesn't read well. I'd just replace the title with "it"
    The 'Chart performance' section striked me as having too much coverage of chart trajectory; see WP:CHARTTRAJ
    Any specific recommendation on what to drop? I'd be willing to do whatever, I just don't know which ones should go. dannymusiceditor Speak up! 05:39, 27 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
    @DannyMusicEditor: Hmmm it's a bit of a tricky one. The coverage is at lease consistent for all charts, giving debut, second week ranking, peak, total weeks in and year end position. This information isn't uninteresting, it's just a fair bit more than I'm used to seeing. I think the article would be improved by toning it down a bit in general but I don't have a specific suggestion. Accordingly this isn't going to be a fail point so I'm happy for you to just ignore the issue for now. Just fix the outstanding issues with references and I'll be happy to pass this.

    I don't think linking "straddle" to "sex position" is accurate, as that link implies there would have been penetrative sex whereas this obviously wouldn't have happened in a music video
    'saying that he is "too late"' - how exactly does she say this? I can't imaging she audibly says "too late" during a music video
    'Before the start of the performance, Lee announced: "We're going to do something completely different from everyone else tonight — and rock as hard as we can."' - I can't see any reason why this is worth mentioning
    I'd wikilink "china" to Porcelain
    Wikilink "Jingle Ball" to KIIS-FM Jingle Ball, assuming that's the same concert
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. Has an appropriate reference section:  
    Checklinks finds three deadlinks and a handful of other issues: [1]
    Ref No. 26 (AllMusic) seems to have bizarre title formatting
    B. Citation to reliable sources where necessary:  
    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 tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:  
    B. Images are provided if possible and are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:  
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:

Nominating editor hasn't touched Wikipedia since before Christmas last I checked. Will be watching this. dannymusiceditor Speak up! 14:30, 26 January 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Freikorp: I believe I've done everything, did I miss something? dannymusiceditor Speak up! 12:46, 29 January 2018 (UTC)Reply
