Reviewer: WonderBoy1998 (talk · contribs) 14:09, 6 September 2013 (UTC) Hi! I'll be reviewing this article. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 14:09, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

Links and files

• 1 Dead link- Ref.13→ Year End Charts 2009 – Dance/Electronic Albums (info) [billboard.biz] (See here)
• One non-free file used, which has a rationale. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 14:48, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

Background

• "Rap-Up announced on December 21, 2008" - You should mention what Rap-Up is exactly. For eg- "American hip-hop music centered magazine" or something similar.

Critical R

• Your cites to the Allmusic review of the Remixes link to the main original album. This seems to be the correct one -http://www.allmusic.com/album/release/good-girl-gone-bad-the-remixes-mr0001022249
• "The edits ... were possibly favored to further emphasize the disc's alternate standing to the original set ... it plays out more like a proper album than a standard, disjointed remix compilation."- I don't see anything negative pointed out here. Then why is "Kellman disliked that the label opted for the radio edits instead of the full-length versions" interpreted like this. In fact, the fact that the album "plays out more like a proper album than a standard, disjointed remix compilation" seems positive all the more.
• "He selected the Seamus Haji and Paul Emanuel remix of "Umbrella", the Soul Seekerz remix of "Breakin' Dishes" and the Moto Blanco remix of "Push Up on Me" as the compilation's best tracks"- You'll have to remove this since your ref doesn't mention this, nor does the new one I found. Also recently a user pointed out to me that AllMusic Picks don't point out the best tracks, in fact this is their AllMusic definition- "These are the songs on a recording that our experts feel are most representative of the entire album". See here.

Commercial R

• "The following week, it remained on the same position and stayed in the top-ten for seven more weeks."- Source?
• Ref. 12.- ^ a b c d e "Good Girl Gone Bad [The Remixes]". Billboard. Prometheus Global Media. Retrieved February 13, 2012- Why does this reference link to the Hot 100 chart? Please fix.
• Ref. 15- ^ a b Grein, Paul (March 2, 2011). "Week Ending Feb. 27, 2011: Albums: All About Adele". Chart Watch. Yahoo! Inc. Retrieved February 13, 2012.- The source doesn't mention the sales of Remixes. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 15:24, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

Charts

• You should use direct chart links to the respective Billboard charts, instead of using Ref.12, which links to the Hot 100 chart.
• Year end chart is dead (mentioned above in Links and files). Use this http://www.billboard.com/artist/365068/rihanna/chart?f=442

Certs

• Why is this section even there when Remixes hasn't even obtained a certification yet? This has been covered in the body so I see no use for this section. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 15:24, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

Lead

• " who dismissed the use of radio edits"- As far as I see, only one reviewer did, considering the fact that Kellman didn't dismiss them.

Finale

• On hold until all above issues are resolved. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 15:24, 6 September 2013 (UTC)
