I'll get to this before the weekend is over Azealia911 talk 17:35, 17 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Will you have a review posted by Sunday?  — Calvin999 09:18, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Yes. Azealia911 talk 18:34, 23 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Lead and infobox

[edit]
  • ""Angels Cry" preceded by a one minute" needs a 'was' added after 'Cry'.
  • "purely in her whistle register" remove 'her', she does not own a special variety of whistle tone.
    • No you need to keep the pronoun otherwise it doesn't make sense. It is her whistle register she's using, that's the part of her voice she's employing to di it.  — Calvin999 21:23, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Nothing on the songs genre?

Overview

[edit]
  • The entire first paragraph needs rewriting or possibly moving to a 'Credits' section. Having reviewed a few of your GAN's before I can see you're not overtly fond of these sections, so I'll respect your preference. But gosh, that first paragraph is a mess. "Copyright 2009 Rye Songs which is administered by Songs of Universal (BMI)/RZE Music Publishing/Universal Music Publising (ASCAP)/C Style Ink/Slide That Music//EMI April Music Publishing Inc." can all be removed, it provides nothing to the reader and just ruins the flow of the section. Perhaps it would have been appropriate in a 'Credits' section, but not in a paragraph of text. "Track fourteen is a one minute, four second prelude called "Angel (The Prelude)" which leads into the fifteenth track, "Angels Cry"." needs rewriting, it sounds like it's from the albums article. "It was written and produced by Carey, Stewart and Wright." is already mentioned at the beginning of the paragraph and can be removed. "however Garten and Thomas recorded the prelude at the Studio at the Palms in Las Vegas in addition to Honeywest Studios. The prelude consists of Carey performing only whistle notes." isn't relevant and can be removed, make sure not to talk too much about the prelude, this is about the track that follows it. There's also too many mentions of last names, but I'll make more comments on this once you've addressed the ones I've already made.
I assumed the sentence about who had written the actual song had been written twice, try switching "It was written" for "The prelude was written". Azealia911 talk 00:44, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • "that the song had a "sad" tone, she praised" → "that the song had a "sad" tone, while she praised"
My bad, I didn't see the 'Although' and thought the sentence started with Ann Powers. Azealia911 talk 00:44, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Background and release

[edit]
  • I feel like this section leaves us hanging, could you possibly add a section confirming that she was indeed working on a new christmas album?
    • I didn't on purpose because I thought you would have said it was irrelevant, as talking about something which takes place 10 months after the release of this remix isn't Background info, and hadn't even happened yet, or been confirmed.  — Calvin999 21:30, 24 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Composition and reception

[edit]
  • (2005)": → (2005):

Chart performance

[edit]
  • "becoming her twenty-eighth career entry and Ne-Yo's first." → "becoming Carey's twenty-eighth entry on the chart in her career and Ne-Yo's first."
  • "it is the first" → "it is also the first"
  • "peaking at number four" something needs to be added on which chart it peaked at four, as far as I know, the International Digital Singles chart is not SK's main chart.

Music video

[edit]
  • "The accompanying music video for the remix of "Up Out My Face""...hehe
  • "with Minaj" → "with Nicki Minaj" this is the first time she's mentioned in this section.
  • "It starts with Carey" → "The video starts with Carey"
  • Hitfix shouldn't be in italics.
  • "appears to be albeit little make-up" does not make sense.
  • Add "from The Guardian" to "Leonie Cooper"

Charts

[edit]
  • Tables can be made sortable, I recommend it seeing as there's six entries.
  • OCC → Official Charts Company
  • Linking all instances of chart providers would not be an overlink, especially as this would be the case if you used singlechart.

Release history

[edit]
  • Island Records → Island

References

[edit]
  • MoS:DASH violations in some titles.
  • I advise you archive iTunes references, they're very temperamental.
  • Before I give further comments on this section, are you adhering to the rule of no markup in references? Would prefer to know before I make several possibly unneeded comments.
Yes, italic marks and bold marks ( and ') shouldn't appear in references. However in past GA reviews of your nominations, you've used them throughout. This article uses some markup in references, but not in all cases where it is needed, so I was just wondering weather you'll be using markup in the refs or not. Azealia911 talk 12:58, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I've made the last few italics so they all are now.  — Calvin999 14:55, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
[edit]
  • There's a MoS:DASH violation in the first title.
  • The first title is rather long-winded, just "Official music video" would do.
  • The lyrics link should disclose which version the lyrics are for.


Passing. Azealia911 talk 21:41, 26 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
