2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
Good
2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
Initial comment: Awfully short. Are you sure you aren't missing anything?
1A
I'd suggest paraphrasing some of these quotes, as the article is so short.
Done
A comment on "could not get this idea out of his head," -- This is not encyclopedic wording; it should be paraphrased encyclopedically or put in quotes. Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:21, 11 December 2011 (UTC)Reply
You should change the initial capitals in quote sentences where necessary.
Noted
Chart performance
"God With Us" debuted at No. 17 on the Billboard Hot Christian Songs chart for the chart week of October 27, 2007." -- Don't think we should repeat chart twice.
I think I corrected it?
3A
Has the song ever been covered? Performed live by MercyMe? On TV? If so, when? What were they wearing?
Not by a notable artist, no. I have noted uses in compilation albums instead, as well as added a section for their live performances.
Who produced the music video? Where was the "live setting"?
Although more in-depth information would be preferred, I have been unable to find any coverage of this song on-line. As such, I am passing this nomination.
As there is a possibility that this may or may not go to GAR eventually, I will leave a note regarding my rationale. I do not wish to sound discriminatory, but it seems to me the lack of coverage is caused by the limited market share of Christian rock; a mainstream song like "Umbrella" would not pass at 4500 characters. I am convinced that the nominator has tried his or her best to make the article comprehensive with the limited sources available; my experience with Caffo suggests that it is acceptable, and indeed some featured articles (such as the controversial MissingNo. are not much longer than this.
