Infobox

• The "length" section needs a {{duration}} template

• Although not a requirement,  Done Statυs (talk) 20:44, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Lead

• Link interpolation
• Billy Joe's song is a single, change accordingly
• Too many instances with "the song", change it up

•  Done Statυs (talk) 20:44, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Background

• ""Can't Stop Won't Stop contains portion from the song "Uptown Girl" which was written and sang by Billy Joel (pictured)." ---> ""Can't Stop Won't Stop contains a portion from the single "Uptown Girl" which was composed and recording by Billy Joel (pictured)."
• "In 2009 interview with People Magazine," ---> "In a 2009 interview with People magazine,". Also when was the interview?
• "Usher, whose private life has been highly documented after filing a divorce from wife Tameka Foster, " ---> irrelevant to the song.
• "In March, 2010," ---> remove first coma
• "Upon its release, Raymond v. Raymond received generally mixed reviews from music critics, who were ambivalent towards its songwriting and themes" ----> another irrelevant sentence.
• Remove the entire paragraph that follows, irrelevant.
• "Adams has previously written and produced Usher's 2010 single "OMG"" ---> needs past-tense tone
• No need for Billy Joel's album
• Link mixed

•  Done things that needed to be fixed. Statυs (talk) 20:44, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Composition

• ""Can't Stop Won't Stop" is eurodance and dance-pop song that incorporates dubstep elements with a length of three minutes and 51 seconds" ---> "is a eurodance"

•  Done

• There needs to be a period before FN#16

•  Done

• No need for Usher's album Confessions and Nothing but the Beat

•  Not done Why? Statυs (talk) 20:51, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

  Please point to a GA or FA article that has this? Best, Jonayo! ^{Selena 4 ever} 15:03, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

• Watch n' Learn maybe? — Tomica (talk) 15:22, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

• Synth is linked but what about hook?

•  Done Statυs (talk) 20:51, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

• I noticed that some of the descriptions directly derived from the reviews. Unless they are in quotations, it needs to be restated in your own words. Otherwise, it's plagiarism.

• See Hahc's comment below. Statυs (talk) 20:51, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Reviews

• "Erika Ramirez of Billboard" ---> Billboard

•  Done Statυs (talk) 20:51, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

• "Billy Joel's songs" ---> according to source it was only one of his songs so why does the sentence gives the feeling that it was more than one?

•  Done Statυs (talk) 20:51, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

• Again many of the reviews are not in your own words.

• Just to step in this. What "are not in your own words"? Mean. The reviews can be as either quoted or paraphrased. I red the section and this is not an issue at all. Please elaborate. Thanks. —Hahc21 20:40, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

Personnel

    •  Done — Tomica (talk) 15:22, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

Charts

• "debuted at the singles chart in South Korea." ---> "debuted on the singles chart in South Korea"

"The next week, the song sold additional 3,593 copies and felt to number 78" ----> remove "additional" and change "felt" to "fell".
