  • There are four things that need to be fixed: reference 28 malfunctions, the hook needs to be directly sourced (not a few sentences later), the stub classification on the talkpage has to be upgraded and lastly: this article relies too heavily on quotes. Consider paraphrasing a few instead of literal quoting.—♦♦ AMBER(ЯʘCK) 18:31, 1 May 2013 (UTC)
  • All of these issues have been fixed. However, please read over the article again. It doesn't rely heavily on quotes. The longest quote is just three sentences and that's in "Writing and production". This section needs quotes from the people who wrote/produced the song. Just saying. Arre 05:23, 4 May 2013 (UTC)
  • Yes, it's much better now. But when citing books (especially when using that in hooks), you need to list the page number(s) where you found the information. Just giving the name of the book is not enough, I'm afraid.—♦♦ AMBER(ЯʘCK) 13:23, 4 May 2013 (UTC)
  • It has been five days since the last activity was presented. Please show some progress soon.—♦♦ AMBER(ЯʘCK) 09:16, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
  • I don't own the book, and Google Books does not show it's number, so I don't know what it is. And I'm not sure how that relates to DYK or not.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 17:46, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
  • This is all a bit strange and unnecessary. When I click on the link, the Billboard book pops up, with the number 922 in a huge font. The page before it, I checked, has 921. Ergo, the article is on page 922. Status, there was a "cite web" template used; if you use the proper one, "cite book", the URL fill-in function will stick in the proper (first) page number.
