Infobox and lead

• Remove rap from the infobox, as that is not a specific genre like drill, hip hop, trap, etc. – but you can keep it in prose
• You forgot to mention in the opening sentence that it is from his second mixtape, Meet the Woo 2 (2020).
• "808Melo and WondaGurl handled" → "The first two of the four, known as CashMoneyAP and WondaGurl, handled" since 808Melo is not listed as a producer in the personnel or by the source
• Remove rap genre per my comment about the source in the body
• A full stop is needed at the end of the first para's last sentence
• "It samples the lyrics of" → "The song interpolates the lyrics of" with the target
• Remove the release year of the song, as that is not notable for the lead per previous discussion
• "was released the same day and" → "was released the same day as the single release, which"
• "meeting fans as and historical African American figures." → "meeting fans, and footage of historical Black American figures."

Background and release

• Merge with the below section and retitle to Background and composition
• "before its release." → "before its January 16, 2020 release." because the date is not mentioned until a good number of sentences later
• "Scary L' → "Scary L"
• "808Melo and WondaGurl handled" → "The first two of the four, who have the stage names of CashMoneyAP and WondaGurl, handled" for accuracy
• Target programmer to Programming (music)
• "recording while Jess Jackson mixed the song." → "recording,, while Jess Jackson mixed it."
• The source does reference the release, but offers no mention of it being for digital download and streaming so remove those parts
• "on Pop Smoke's second studio mixtape Meet the Woo 2." → "from Meet the Woo 2."

Music and lyrics

• This should be the second para of the proposed merger
• ""Christopher Walking" is a" → "Musically, "Christopher Walking" is a"
• Remove rap genre because only one source calls the song "drill rap", which is another way of referring to drill as a rap subgenre
• Swap the second and third sentences of this para because the third should come before the 50 Cent lyrics, as it is about the meaning of the song
• "The song prominently samples the lyrics of" → "It prominently interpolates the lyrics of" with the target, per both sources calling this an interpolation
• Target single to Single (music)
• "from the 1990" → "in the 1990"
• "throughout the streets and mentions" → "throughout the streets, and mentions"
• "with someone: "Tie that boy up like a cowboy."" → "with someone, declaring he wants to "tie that boy up like a cowboy"." per MOS:QUOTE

Critical reception

• Target music critics to Music journalism
• A lot of MOS:QUOTE issues within this section
• Wikilink Brooklyn drill
• "Tom Breihan that "Christopher Walking" had" → "Tom Breihan opined that "Christopher Walking" has"
• "mentioning that it had" → "mentioning that it possesses"
• "as his voice." And that it sounds" → "as his voice", which sounds"
• "He concludes by saying" → "Breihan concluded by saying"

Music video

• "as he passes by them" → "while passing by them" but HB offers a mention of him showing off his attire that has not been included
• "shows archive footage" → "shows intertwined archive footage"
• Target Black Panther to Black Panther party
• Fix MOS:QUOTE issues with the three reception sentences

Credits and personnel

• Good

References

• Copyvio score looks moderately good at 32.0%
• Make sure all of these are archive by using the tool
• Remove the author from ref 10
• Cite Complex instead for ref 15 and target to Complex (magazine) per MOS:LINK2SECT

Final comments and verdict

•  On hold until all of the issues are fixed; crazy to think this was up for AFD just a week ago and you were considering quitting Wiki! --K. Peake 09:00, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the review Kyle Peake. I have addressed all of your concerns. It's 3 am from where I am in the US and I'm hella tired. And to be honest, I am quitting Wikipedia as soon I as start college in August 2021. The Ultimate Boss (talk) 09:38, 20 February 2021 (UTC)

The Ultimate Boss Nice job, you only missed one change besides running the tool that was very minor anyway so I added it in for you. There were also a few errors made that weren't missed changes, so I fixed those for you accordingly. ✓ Pass now and it will be a shame to see you retire from Wikipedia soon, but we still have FB to keep in contact! --K.
