Me Haces Falta

edit

Created/expanded by Status (talk). Self nom at 22:05, 4 June 2012 (UTC)


  • Article created in 2007, went through some changed and redirects then re-opened on 2 June. DYKCheck says its assumed to be at 5x now after 115 edits and it was nom'd 2 days later. length is okey. However the 2nd massicve para in the music video section is unsourced and im also concerned about the sourcing for the release info. Also "generally mixed acclaim " is vague, and thre are also only 2 criticis cited. Hook is nice.
There is also the cover picture which could be used.
As an aside the template could/should use a link to this.Lihaas (talk) 13:04, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
  • I really don't understand much of what you are saying. The release info is sourced directly from iTunes and synopsis are self-written. Statυs (talk) 13:15, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
You need a source (similar to how the plot summary on the cheers article recently had a source.). Im cocnerned about the creibility of itunes as a RS source. (also can you point out where the date for each country is?).
The "generally mixed acclaim" is vague and broad a term for the 2 cited reviewers.Lihaas (talk) 14:23, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
Plot summaries do not require a source. See Saw (film), for example. It is a GA and it does not include a source for its summary. iTunes is a credible source and is used on Halo (Beyoncé Knowles song), an FA, for example.

Maybe it shouldnt be a GA, but we were told there that the source was placed in plot summary. Perhaps iTunes needs to go to RSN...it is a commericial source that doesnthave a reputation/need for fact checking/editorial oversight.
And the "generally mixed acclaim" wasnt answered.Lihaas (talk) 19:25, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
When were you told that? See WP:FILMPLOT. iTunes is a reliable source that is used in thousands of articles. I am not following anything you are saying on that aspect. Statυs (talk) 19:47, 12 June 2012 (UTC)
Okey on the first i guess. But just cuase itunes is used doesnt make it reliable, its for-profit nature is not conducive to editorial oversight in the same way as a paper.
for "generally mised acclaim" you make the assertion that it is general and mixed, but there are only 2 reviewers and the sentence is sourced to a specific one so its better to mention that instead of the broad and vague phrase uyou used.Lihaas (talk) 10:22, 13 June 2012 (UTC)
Since the User:Lihaas didn't comment on this DYK for like more then a week, I will take the response for it. I agree with Status, plots don't require a source. So this DYK is okay to pass. — Tomica (talk) 00:01, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
