Infobox and lead

edit
  • A release in Mexico needs to be mentioned in the body to warrant the cover being listed as Mexican
  • Remove the usage of the word studios from the parameter
  • The release sentence should be the third of the para instead
  • "and Estéfano with the artist and" → "and Estéfano, while produced by the singer and" however, you need to mention the producers in the body too
  • "it utilizes mariachi horns and lyrically that equates" → "it utilizes mariachi trumpets and lyrically equates"
  • The music video info should be directly before live performances in the second para instead
  • "A music video was filmed" → "An accompanying music video was filmed"

  • Wikilink amplifiers per WP:PIPE
  • "than her previous records since more people worked on this album." → "than Shakira's previous records since more people were involved."
  • In the co-writing sentence, also mention who she produced the track with
  • "It is a pop rock song" → "Musically, "Ciega, Sordomuda" is a pop rock song"
  • "Lyrically, she describes herself" → "Lyrically, Shakira describes herself"
  • Why is there a space between foolish and the comma?

Critical reception

edit
  • Retitle to Reception per awards being included
