Hello, I am Carbrera, and I'll be reviewing this article for possible good article submission.

Full review coming very soon. Carbrera (talk) 23:48, 01 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • @Carbrera: Thank you very much! This will be an interesting review as I literally made this page so hopefully I did it all correctly lol. Aoba47 (talk) 00:29, 2 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Infobox

edit
  • Remove the quotation marks around "Day Dreaming" in the singles box; they are pre-included without having to manually add them

  Done

Lead

edit

Paragraph 1

edit
  • Include the year after Ask a Woman Who Knows.

  Done

Paragraph 2

edit
  • "Upon its release" → "After its release'

  Done

Paragraph 3

edit
  • I would move this paragraph to the one above, creating a slightly larger one :)

  Done

Background and recording

edit

Paragraph 1

edit
  • Looks really good!
  • Thank you!

Paragraph 2

edit
  • Hmmm. I particularly don't like album covers used in sections; is there a different image that could be used in place of this previous album cover? If not, it'll just have to do.
  • I will look for a different image. I agree with your point.   Working Aoba47 (talk) 06:02, 2 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
  •   Done (The image is pretty blurry, but it is hard to find an image that is both high quality/appropriate and that will not be taken down immediately.)
  • The period should come before the quotation marks in the last sentence, right?
  • I was told that the punctuation comes after the quotation marks unless citing a full sentence. I thought it was odd too as it is not like that for normal writing, but I was directed to this during the c/e. Aoba47 (talk) 06:02, 2 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Paragraph 3

edit
  • Link 'Dallas Austin'

  Done

  • Otherwise, good work
  • Thank you!

Paragraph 4

edit
  • "yet up-to-date". Taylor described..." → "yet up-to-date"; Taylor described..."

  Done

  • Nothing else to mention
  • Thank you!

Composition

edit
  • Highly impressed with this section; zero comments whatsoever!
  • Thank you! It took a lot of work for this section!

Promotion

edit
  • Another comment; is there a different image of maybe Cole singing live or something? The music video pic is alright, but an image of Cole performing one of the album's songs would be even better!
  • I will look around for a different image. Thank for you for the suggestion!   Working Aoba47 (talk) 06:02, 2 April 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Since Cole did not promote the album a lot, there are unfortunately only a handful of times that I could find a video of her performing the songs live and I am not certain if taking screenshots of any of those would help the article as they are very pixelated/blurry.

Reception

edit

Critical response

edit
  • Change the first sentence to "Leavin' received positive reviews from music critics."

  Done

Track listing

edit
  • Are the producers available for the tracks? You could try discogs.com perhaps?
  • Thank you for bringing my attention to this. Will add this.   Working
  •   Done
  • @Aoba47: Could you add who produced the only non-Austin produced track in the short statement above the track listing?
Will look for it now.   Working
@Carbrera:   Done
  • Shouldn't the No. for the bonus track be #13.?

  Done

Credits

edit
  • This may be a little putzy, but shouldn't the additional positions/instruments after the first one be all lowercased? Like for Dallas Austin for example: "Composer, drums, executive producer, horn arrangements, percussion, performer, producer, rhythm arrangements, vocal arrangement" Do you see what I mean?

  Done Sorry for the mistake here ><

Charts

edit
  • Remove 'Weekly charts' since it didn't end up on a 'year-end chart'

  Done

Release history

edit
  • The dates need to be in chronological order; 2010 comes before 2006 in this example

  Done Wow, that was a silly mistake lol

References

edit
  • [36] - Remove the link to 'Billboard'   Done
  • [38] - Remove the link to 'Billboard'   Done
  • [39] - Remove the link to 'Billboard'   Done
