Hello, I'm User:John M Wolfson, and I'll be your GA reviewer. Looking through the 6 criteria:

  • Well-written: The prose is clear and readable enough.  Y
  • Verifiable and no OR: I'm not sure that the reviews given support the statement that the album received "widespread acclaim", they by and large seem more descriptive than praising. Also, could you cite the track list if possible?
  • Broad in coverage: This is mostly satisfied, but I would like to see something about the background and production/recording of the album.
  • Neutral: The issues raised with the reviews also apply here, but other than that this is satisfied.
  • Stable: I see no obvious vandalism or edit warring in the past 50 edits.  Y
  • Illustrated: Some illustration might be good, but the cover art is sufficient. I see it is fair-use, and the rationale is adequate.  Y

Let me know if you have any more questions! -John M Wolfson (talk) 02:56, 28 March 2019 (UTC)Reply

@Sullay: I was just wondering if you had received my comments and had a chance to look them over. -John M Wolfson (talk) 03:21, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply

Hey! I just saw this. If I remember correctly, there wasn't any information (on the internet at least) about the production or recording of the album. I hope that isn't a deal breaker? I'll try finding a source for the track list, which I believe should be easy. –Sullay (Let's talk about it) 03:47, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Two reliable sources found! –Sullay (Let's talk about it) 03:51, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Not having a background is fine, although I'm still concerned about the reviews being acclaimed. -John M Wolfson (talk) 04:03, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Well, the album did get good reviews. But we can change that sentence if you like, it's no problem to me. –Sullay (Let's talk about it) 04:15, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
I'm not entirely convinced that the reviews quoted are quite as acclaiming as you say they are. Perhaps stronger quotes would change my mind. -John M Wolfson (talk) 04:26, 3 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
I fixed those issues myself and am now comfortable with passing  Y this article to Good Article status. Congratulations! -John M Wolfson (talk) 03:31, 6 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
Magnificent! Thank you! –Sullay (Let's talk about it) 06:59, 6 April 2019 (UTC)Reply
