Okay. Best way to clear the backlog is probably to review the oldest article left. Let's have a look-see.
- I feel that this meets all of the main GA criteria in general – it's excellently written and extensive in coverage, neutral, superbly referenced (the sheer number of book sources means that linkrot won't be much of an issue), stable and uses images appropriately. This being the case, I'll list some more specific points to improve the article just that little more.
General
- Are you sure this is actually a single? I've been under the impression that, on vinyl singles, the A-side is the actual single but that the B-side is just an accompanying track that doesn't have proper single status. Only if a disc is a double A-side would two songs be credited as the single (i.e. in the manner of "Ghetto Musick / Prototype"). Please correct me if I'm wrong.
Lead
- "on his final album for Apple Records, Extra Texture (Read All About It)" → "on Extra Texture (Read All About It), his final album for Apple Records." This order reads a little better, and seems more logical.
- "a request for them not to judge." → judge who?
Background
- "while also completing his new album, Dark Horse." → since you've mentioned Dark Horse in the previous paragraph, this seems a little repetitive. "while also completing Dark Horse" is all that needs to be there.
Release and reception
- "estime" → "esteem", surely?
References
- Mostly fine, but a couple of points: Rolling Stone is published by Wenner Media (which should be part of a piped link to Jann Wenner (like this → Wenner Media). Also, it would be better if you formatted the Fong-Torres interview directly to the original magazine (i.e. using something like the cite journal template, although the link used can still be included in the "url" section of the template).
Notes
- These are very lengthy notes. Could the information they convey not be incorporated into the main prose?
That's all I can find right now; I'll put other points if I find any more. Overall, though, this is very good, and I'll put the review on hold to let you address or question any of my points. Nice work! I Am Rufus • Conversation is a beautiful thing. 07:39, 2 August 2013 (UTC)
