This is an overview of Filipino entertainer Regine Velasquez. I am nominating these series of related articles to WP:FT. All relevant articles have been promoted to either GA and FL this year (with the exception of awards and songs which were promoted to FL back in 2018). Happy to address your comments and thanks to all who take the time to review. --Pseud 14 (talk) 18:30, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
- Support: Looks like the GA biography and a series of FLs, all linked by a category and navbox and linked in appropriate places in the main article. I don't see anything obviously missing! -Bryan Rutherford (talk) 20:33, 20 November 2021 (UTC)
- Support: Looks good to me. Great work with this. Aoba47 (talk) 04:49, 9 December 2021 (UTC)

CommentsI am not sure about the inclusion of a photo of Velasquez on The Main Event Tour in the 2008–2012 section of her article, as this tour is not mentioned in prose. Also, any instances of AllMusic across these articles should cite it as the sole publisher for consistency, WordPress should not be used in the awards and nominations one per WP:RSP and the lead of songs recorded should be cut down to four paras to comply with WP:LEAD. Ittook me a while to comment since initially I was quite busy and then the main article was going through a copyedit so it was appropriate to wait until that was complete; these articles are broad in their coverage, well-researched using a variety of sources! The topic description is intriguing too with its detail, also I commend you for maintaining the correct form of English there. --K. Peake 15:53, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Kyle Peake: thank you for your feedback, I have addressed each of the points raised. I've replaced the image in the section with something that has been mentioned in the prose. Parameters for cites on AllMusic updated, believe there was only one where I had Tivo as publisher, fixed that. I can't seem to find any source where I used WordPress.com, that may have been a downloadable source of winners in Word Document format taken from the official Awit Awards site, updated the parameter to avoid confusion. For songs recorded, the only extra sentence I have merged with the fourth para, hopefully that still meets the WP:LEAD criteria. Much appreciate your time in reviewing the articles. Let me know if there's anything else I may have missed. Pseud 14 (talk) 19:57, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
- Ref 7 of awards and nominations uses a website that has a homepage reading Sing Your Mind | Just another WordPress.com weblog; this has gotta be removed or replaced. --K. Peake 21:28, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
- @Kyle Peake: My bad, I was looking at the main article. Thanks for this, I've searched alternative RS and could only find an article from a Filipino music resource site that provides news articles and press releases. I'm hoping this will suffice, let me know otherwise. Pseud 14 (talk) 22:37, 9 December 2021 (UTC)
