Infobox and lead

edit
  • Only list new jack swing in the infobox since the other two are influences
  • Add the release year of her album of the same name
  • "and most European countries it was" → "and most European countries, it was"
  • The Billboard 200 part is not relevant enough for the lead, also are you sure that the "not black enough" part is either?

I think it is, it gives background information as to why Houston decided to focus on the black public and record the track

  • "she chose to work with" → "Houston chose to work with"
  • "produced boyfriend Bobby Brown's 1989 album" → "produced her boyfriend Bobby Brown's 1989 album,"
  • Shouldn't the song being one of the last recorded be mentioned?
  • "it was generally well-received by most critics," → "the song was generally well-received by music critics,"
  • Should "street-oriented" really be in quotes when only one reviewer actually wrote that?
  • The #1990s part is not needed
  • "it is now considered one" → "it has been considered one"
  • "It was also" → "The song was also"
  • "successful; in the United States, it become Houston's eight number one on the" → "successful, becoming Houston's eighth number one on the US"
  • The Switzerland position is not written out anywhere in the body
  • Lowercase the Supremes per MOS:THEMUSIC
  • "as tribute to Houston" → "in tribute to Houston" however, this para is too short so try to split the previous one at a different point

  Done

Background

edit
  • Img looks good!
  • Mention that it is her self-titled second studio album
I believe how I wrote it works fine, since Whitney Houston actually has two self-titled albums: 1985's Whitney Houston and 1987's Whitney, and I don't want to mention the word "Whitney" twice.
  • "to debut atop the Billboard 200." → "to debut atop the US Billboard 200."
  • "chastised Houston for "playing it safe"," → "chastised how Houston "plays everything safe"," per the source
  • Remove capitalization for adult contemporary music
  • "but I wasn't"." → if this is a full sentence, then the punctuation should be inside the quote
  • "attitude" inspired Houston." → "attitude" inspired the singer."
  • Remove the comma after third studio album

  Done

Composition and release

edit
  • Audio sample looks good!
  • Remove pipe on keyboards
  • "Musically, it has been described" → "Musically, "I'm Your Baby Tonight" has been described"
  • Black church should not be capitalized unless the source does that, also why is dance piped to dance pop not dance music?
  • "unlike her past songs, it doesn't" → "unlike her past songs, the track fails to"
  • Wikilink tempo
  • Wikilink chord progression
  • [6] should solely be at the end of the sentence
  • "Breihan held that it's the word" → "Breihan held that it is the word"

  Done

Critical reception

edit
  • "received generally positive reviews" → "was met with generally positive reviews"
  • "who called it a "sure hit" and" → "who called the song a "sure hit", and"
  • "Tom Breihan wrote that, despite its" → "Breihan wrote that, despite the"
  • "more and more fun"." → "more and more fun."" per MOS:QUOTE on full sentences
  • "is what's required"." → "is what's required."" per above
  • "considered it Houston's" → "considered "I'm Your Baby Tonight" Houston's"
  • A poll conducted of Rolling Stone readers found the song to be Houston's eighth best, so alter accordingly
  • "saying it was a" → "saying the song is a"
  • "For BET, it is" → "For BET, the song is"

  Done

Commercial performance

edit
  • Img looks good!
  • "for shipment of 500,000 copies;" → "for shipments of 500,000 copies in the US;"
  • "Houston's eight number one" → "Houston's eighth number one"
  • Is "up at the time" really a good way of wording it?
  • "In Australia, it entered the" → "In Australia, the song entered the"
  • Why is the Switzerland position not mentioned here when it is in the lead?

  Done

Music video, live performances and covers

edit
  • Img looks good!
  • Shouldn't the choreography sentence read that Adam Shankman was in charge of choreography?
  • Lowercase the Supremes per MOS:THEMUSIC
  • "candy-colored dresses" and focused" → "candy-colored dresses", and focused"
  • "Christina Aguilera and" → "Christina Aguilera, and"
  • "On early 1991," → "In early 1991,"
  • Mention the year of the Welcome Home special
  • "as tribute to Houston." → "as a tribute to Houston."

References

edit
  • Copyvio score looks slightly too high at 43.2%; cut down quoting from the Stereogum ref to fix this
  • Washington PostThe Washington Post on ref 1 with the wikilink
  • New York TimesThe New York Times on ref 2 with the wikilink
  • Remove or replace ref 4 per WP:SELFPUB
  • Cite Google Books as via on refs 7, 11, 55 and 60, only wikilinking on the first instance
Can you please elaborate what you mean?

Final comments and verdict

I have fixed most of the issues addressed; will be back later to finish the rest. --Christian (talk) 14:38, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
I have addressed (almost) all the points addressed, I just have some questions I hope you can clear up for me :) @Kyle Peake: --Christian (talk) 23:02, 30 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Chrishm21 The only things I have left to comment are that you could identify the album as her second self-titled album, I meant to add the via parameter to those refs with Google Books and ref 87 needs date formatting fixed. --K. Peake 10:44, 31 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
@Kyle Peake: Ref 87 is an embedded template for the certifications, is there a way to change it? My doubt regarding the google books via parameter is, do they go on the Bibliography section? Can you provide an example? --Christian (talk) 16:36, 31 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
Chrishm21 The problem is with the access date, which obviously can be fixed and the bibliography section gives no links to Google Books, so no. --K. Peake 10:21, 1 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
Hello @Kyle Peake:, happy new year :D ! I'm still not sure on the google books/via you're mentioning, could you provide an example? I also haven't figured out a way to modifiy an existing template (regarding the certification) :/ --Christian (talk) 00:57, 3 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • @Chrishm21: I mean sources like 7 that are on Google Books; add this parameter to them and all you need to do is change the access-date, which can be done for a template since someone obviously set that part in the first place. --K. Peake 09:06, 3 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Kyle Peake: hello! I have modify the certification template; let me know if that is OK--Christian (talk) 23:42, 6 January 2023 (UTC)Reply
