Hi! I'll review this one. ★★RetroLord★★ 21:53, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Close paraphrasing concern: "production team have enlisted a 16-person, hand-picked, male tenor/bass choir plus 10 female Bulgarian vocalists, a full 50-piece orchestra, and a host of other performers to work on the soundtrack" Seems to be copied from http://www.halowaypoint.com/halo4/en-us/#!an-epic-universe/soundtrack/59e1db4b-7acc-4572-bd10-523151c0772c Could you please fix this?

1. Well-written:
	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.	" he kept monitors with interesting visuals" Could you rewrite this? It doesn't quite make sense  Not done "album debuted the No. 50" What does this mean?
	1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
	2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
	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).	The track listings section is unreferenced, please fix this
	2c. it contains no original research.
3. Broad in its coverage:
	3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
	3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
	4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
	5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
	6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
	6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
	7. Overall assessment.

Discussion

• In response to 2b. The first article reference: Halo 4 Soundtrack details is a suitable source for the track listing. However does the track listing section actually need citations? I've never seen another album article with citations on the track listing section after it's release. The1337gamer (talk) 22:17, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Since it's providing information I don't see why it wouldn't need citations. ★★RetroLord★★ 22:39, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

Added them. The1337gamer (talk) 07:23, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

I couldn't find in that reference anything about the lengths of the songs, is it in there? If not, could you get a ref for that too please? ★★RetroLord★★ 09:05, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

Changed the references to iTunes listing. The1337gamer (talk) 09:14, 9 March 2013 (UTC)

• Adjusted the paraphrasing; I believe all your currently-listed concerns have been addressed. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs^(talk) 15:33, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

The last to do listed has been addressed. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 01:11, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
