Talk:Settle Down (No Doubt song)

Producer

I've noticed a couple of different users changing the producer from Diplo to Spike Stent. The following sources credit Diplo with the production:

• CraveOnline
• Gigwise
• Huffington Post
• Idolator
• Los Angeles Times
• UPI

These are considered reliable so I'm leaving it at Diplo until someone can provide proof otherwise from a reliable source. Scarce2 (talk) 13:18, 17 July 2012 (UTC)

Chart performance

The single didn't land Belgian's main chart (Ultratop 50) but landed 18th in another less important chart (the Ultratip 100) Ziyalistix (talk) 10:03, 1 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello, I'm Cartoon network freak, and here's my review to your GAN:

Lead

• a song by -> a song recorded by
• Spike Stent, it was -> Spike Stent, the track was; you've already used "it"
• 2012 by -> 2012 through
• Remove "Latin and Caribbean-tinged beats" -> it is no genre and it doesn't fit togethr with the other content
• Lyrically, the song -> Lyrically, "Settle Down"; you've already used "song"
• about confidence and about feeling good, adjusting yourself to unfamiliar circumstances -> about confidence and feeling good, with one of its subtopics being familiar circumstances
• other songs -> other recordings; you've already used "song"
• Some critics -> Some reviewers; you've already used "critics"
• fifth album Rock Steady, -> fifth studio album, Rock Steady (2001),
• Remove "particularly"
• Santigold songs -> the works of Santigold
• July 16, 2012. In it, -> July 16, 2012, which portrays
• convoy, which -> convoy that
• to perform the song -> to perform "Settle Down"
• It received -> The clip received
• praising the -> praising its
• lights and -> lights, and
• to do -> to shoot

Background and release

• album Rock Steady -> album, Rock Steady
• hiatus to take a break to -> hiatus, in order to
• add year of the compilation in "()"
• The main reason to go into hiatus was that, in early 2003, their lead singer Gwen Stefani started work on her 1980s-inspired new wave/dance-pop music side project, under which she has released two solo albums — Love. Angel. Music. Baby. on November 23, 2004 and The Sweet Escape on December 5, 2006 ->The main reason the band took a break from their music career was of Gwen Stefani's solo work; she had released two albums — Love. Angel. Music. Baby. (2004) and The Sweet Escape (2006).
• Remove "successful"; fancruft
• began initial work -> commenced work
• 2008, after Gwen Stefani wrapped the tour behind her second solo album, The Sweet Escape. -> 2008, following Stefani's promotional tour of her second solo record.
• This section is too excesively about the album; try to short it out

Outcome

I've reviewed a select few sections, but as you can see, there are a substantial amount of basic errors. However, I think the first step would be to request the article be copy-edited, and then even request someone to help you improve the article (however, I'd discourage asking me as I'd quite like to re-review this when it's been worked on, and if I've worked on it, I can't review it!) Best of luck, Cartoon network freak (talk) 10:28, 22 May 2016 (UTC)
