Hello! I will be reviewing this article! --Cerebellum (talk) 10:33, 7 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose):   b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):  
    Some critics were split on the changes in which Yankovic composed, performed, and recorded his parodies. This should be reworded - "in which" doesn't really apply to "changes."
    There is an "as of" tag in the commercial performance. You need to specify "December 2011" or whatever the correct time reference is.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):  
    What makes Yahoo music a reliable source? How about buy.com? You could probably just remove both of these, leaving the genre section in the infobox uncited; FAs like Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers) and The Dark Side of the Moon have no references for the genre either.
    Reference #9 also uses buy.com - why is this reliable?
    The link for reference 31 seems to be be broken.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects):   b (focused):  
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:  
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):  
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  
    Looks good! I'm place this on hold for seven days, so just let me know when you've fixed the issues above and I'll promote this. --Cerebellum (talk) 11:26, 7 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
Alrighty, I believe I've fixed all the issues. Also, a note on 31, there isn't an exact way to pin-point the album on the RIAA website, so you have to wade through a couple pages to get to the right page.--Gen. Quon (talk) 14:53, 7 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
Good job! Happy to pass now. --Cerebellum (talk) 09:11, 8 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
