5x expanded by Hunter Kahn (talk). Self-nominated at 03:30, 1 April 2020 (UTC).
- Hey Hunter Kahn, this is an impressive expansion, and I think it can easily pass a GA review. My review follows below: epicgenius (talk) 02:16, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
General: Article is new enough and long enough |
---|
Policy compliance:
- Adequate sourcing:
- Neutral:
- Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing: - There are a lot of quotes that bring up false positives on copyvios. But there are also some true matches which aren't in quotes:
first true concept album. Its songs grew from a project Field Music undertook for the Imperial War Museum
utilised transducers to capture the vibrations, then displayed on a graph showing the distances between peaks on different lines to pinpoint the location of enemy armament
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation |

QPQ: Done. |
Overall: epicgenius (talk) 02:16, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks epicgenius. I've made some minor changes to try to alleviate the copyvio issues. The two flagged passages were actually in the pre-expansion version, which may still have been written by me in the past, but is probably why I didn't catch it during the expansion. In any event, let me know if you think it's sufficient now. (Also, I actually have nominated it for GA, along with one other Field Music album, so if you or anyone else reading this is interested in reviewing it, by all means! LOL) Thanks! — Hunter Kahn 02:47, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- @Hunter Kahn: No problem. I didn't see the GA template, but that's even better. I or someone else might review it down the road.
- Sorry to bother you again, but there are actually a few more examples (which I didn't notice before). I think these should be the last issues. epicgenius (talk) 02:52, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- No bother at all epicgenius. I made a couple other changes that I think address the ones that aren't either quote fragments or album/song titles, but if I missed any feel free to ping me again... — Hunter Kahn 03:00, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
- This should be good to go, then. Thanks for responding so quickly. epicgenius (talk) 03:08, 3 April 2020 (UTC)

This is quite a long article, so it may take a while for me to review. However, I will work hard on it and the first suggestion is to add a personnel section for easily going above start class, remember there is more than composing and writing to be mentioned within the article. --Kyle Peake (talk) 11:31, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- Thanks Kyle Peake for taking on the review! I just added a Personnel section consistent with those in the other Field Music album GAs; sorry I initially forgot that with this one. Looking forward to your feedback on the article! — Hunter Kahn 17:49, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
- Hunter Kahn Good to see, it is my pleasure to take on such a long article! --Kyle Peake (talk) 18:23, 22 April 2020 (UTC)
Infobox and lead
edit- The citations are not needed here as that is sourced in the body
- Removed. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- I can see that the album was initially recorded in 2019, can you find a source to verify if it ended then or 2020? Add this within a sentence in the body, then add recording year(s here
- I don't have a source that specifically states this. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- I know there's various genres cited in the body; list pop and rock here since most are sub genres of them that are sourced
- Done. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- The lead does not comply with WP:LEAD, as it is five paragraphs long. Try thinking about what it is notable for the lead before trimming it, take the sentence: ""A Change of Heir" was inspired by Harold Gillies, a surgeon who pioneered skin grafts and later conducted one of the first gender realignment operations." for example; this is hardly notable here
- I've tightened it a bit; the area you suggested was the main spot where there was fat to trim. Let me know if this works. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- Yeah looks good, needs a few more fixes though. --Kyle Peake (talk) 05:56, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Could you be a bit more specific? — Hunter Kahn 18:54, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- I have made a list of points that are further comments for the new lead, which you haven't yet responded to on this page. --Kyle Peake (talk) 19:32, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

- "by the English rock band" → "by English rock band" and mention the members directly afterwards, while wikilinking David
- I've added the wikilink, but are you sure mentioning the band members is necessary? I don't usually see this kind of thing in articles about albums (for example, Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is an FA, but the lead doesn't list off John, Paul, George and Ringo as band members). It would also add length to an already fairly lengthy lead, and it would also be a little more complicated than with a normal band, because you could argue that David and Peter Brewis are the only true band members, whereas the other three are more like touring/associate members, and if we were to list all five we'd have to explain that context and add even more length to the lead. My preference would be to just keep it as is, and the fact that the band article is wikilinked means the reader can always click on it to get more information about the members anyway... — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- No, it's fine like it is, actually --Kyle Peake (talk) 06:26, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

- Are you sure the information about the meaning of the album after the release sentence should not be switched to the next para instead? It just seems like the recording information belongs earlier in the lead than this to me... I am not referencing the museum information here.
- I personally like it in the first paragraph because I think it's perhaps the most crucial single statement of the whole album, so it feels appropriate for the very top. Moving it to the second paragraph would also make that one very long while the first paragraph would be very short (not that that is a major consideration). However, I did move the sentence to the bottom of the first paragraph, so it segues more smoothly into the second. Is that an acceptable compromise? — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- Yeah, that works --Kyle Peake (talk) 06:26, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

- "and how that they impacted the 100 years" → "and how they impacted the 100 years"
- Oops. Fixed. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "by Field Music's David and Peter Brewis" → "by David and Peter Brewis"
- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "The starting point for the project" → "The starting point for the museum project" to specify it's not the album
- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "exact moment when the war ended" → "exact moment that the war ended"
- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "After conducting researching" → "After conducting research"
- Ugh, I had some rather embarrassing typos in the lead! Apologies; I think some of these I had thought I previously fixed on a copy edit, but perhaps it didn't save. I've fixed this one now. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "World War I, and instead" → "World War I. They instead" as the sentence is a bit of a run-on
- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "topics are addressed in the songs" → "topics are addressed in the songs on Making a New World"
- Added. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "first single" → "lead single"
- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "for dressing war wounds." → "for dressing war wounds, and was released in September 2019."
- This sentence was removed due to my efforts to condense the lead, so I believe this is a moot point now. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- Follow this in the same para with "It was followed by the singles "Money Is a Memory" and "Beyond That of Courtesy" later that year, while "Do You Read Me?" was released as the final single in 2020."
- Per above, I removed the mentions of the singles; my feeling is that since they are listed in the infobox, we could omit them from the lead and help shorten it from five paragraphs to four. Thoughts? — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- Agree, since they are not highly notable --Kyle Peake (talk) 06:26, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

- Done. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

- I reworded this a bit to shorten the lead. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "Making a New World features a diverse mix" → "The latter features a diverse mixture"
- I changed the paragraphs a bit during my edits, so this sentence begins a new paragraph now. If we keep it that way, I think it makes sense to keep the album title in, rather than "the latter". But let me know your thoughts. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- Target vocal harmonies to Vocal harmony
- Done. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "The album received generally positive reviews and was praised for its" → "Making a New World received generally positive reviews from music critics and was praised for the"
- If we are indeed keeping the album title in the prior sentence (up to you!) that means adding it here will create a bit of redundancy. So for now I've made the changes you suggest, but kept the "the album" part. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "with writers complimenting praising Field Music" → "with Field Music being complimented"
- Ugh, another embarrassing error. Fixed. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- "Some negative reviews said an album" → "Some critics were more negative, saying the album"
- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
- I may have further comments about fixes once it has been trimmed to four paragraphs.
- Just let me know! — Hunter Kahn 20:41, 28 April 2020 (UTC)
Further comments for the new lead
- "The primary recordings for Making is a New World came" → "The primary recordings for the album came"
- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 19:39, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- "used for the museum shows and tour dates for the album" → "used for the former's tour dates and the museum shows" since you will have already used "the album" for referencing it in the para
- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 19:39, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- Bonus: just noticed the infobox has the first single's release date listed as 03 January; change to 3 January 2020 instead
- Fixed. — Hunter Kahn 19:39, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

- Remove the img wikilink to Field Music
- Remove the opening sentence, as that does not need to be written in the body of an article
- I don't actually agree with this feedback; I think it should be mentioned in the body of the article and I don't see the benefit of removing it. But I've done so. — Hunter Kahn 21:06, 28 April 2020 (UTC)

Critical reception
edit- There is a 10 score limit per MOS:ALBUM#Album ratings template. You do have more reviews to add to the scores but have chosen not to for some reason; add the five other most notable reviews here
- Added. — Hunter Kahn 20:36, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
- "Making a New World was well-received by most critics, with an aggregated Metacritic rating of 73/100 based upon 18 reviews, which the website characterised as "generally positive reviews".[143] The album also received an aggregated rating of 7.2/10 on AnyDecentMusic? based upon 22 reviews.[144]" → "Making a New World was met with generally positive reviews from music critics. At Metacritic, the album received an average score of 75, based on 22 reviews.[143] Aggregator AnyDecentMusic? gave it 7.2 out of 10, based on their assessment of the critical consensus.[144]"
- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 20:36, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
- This section is way too extensive; see the recently passed GA Ye for an example of how long critical reception should be. However, keep positive reviews alongside the few non-positive to lead the article to remaining neutral.
- I have to disagree. This section is consistent with feedback I've received in past GA and FA review processes for other Field Music albums such as Commontime (album) and Open Here. Rather than just a collection of review blurbs, the section is organized by specific statements and themes (i.e., "Many reviewers described Making a New World as an ambitious album...", "...described it as a particularly niche and idiosyncratic work...", "...too many ideas and narrative elements to form a cohesive album...", etc.) which are supported by {{#tag:ref}} notes as well as occasional quotes. As for interspersing positive and non-positive, I have been specifically told not to do this in the past, and to instead put them into specific sections so they won't get lost in the shuffle, which is why most of the negative comments about the article are paired together. I don't think there is much risk of coming across as non-neutral, however, as the article clearly states both here and in the lead that not all reviews were positive. — Hunter Kahn 20:36, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
- I meant with my initial comments that you mix positive and non-positive as in putting positive first, then having non-positive after them – with mixed coming first, then negative. However, the extensiveness is now something I do not see issue with after having heard that this has been consistent for your Field Music albums, and nothing at WP:RECEPTION writes against you; just remember not to be too repetitive with wording though. --Kyle Peake (talk) 07:48, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

- The lists in the last para of the section should be split into an accolades sub-section.
- Let me know if the way I did it works. — Hunter Kahn 21:27, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
- That's a fine sub-section, but a Reviews sub-section isn't needed; just keep the Critical reception section with that information in it and Accolades as the only sub-section. --Kyle Peake (talk) 07:48, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

- Only done the first para but will take a look at the rest after you make the initial fixes I mentioned, since this will probably have influence on what changes you will need to make; one tip would be to not reintroduce people who have already been introduced
- I did make changes so that reviewers already introduced elsewhere in the article were not introduced again. But I guess we need to have further conversation about this, since we disagree about this section. I respect your opinion of course and have incorporated almost all of your edits so far, but I feel it's already fairly condensed (there is a LOT more I could have included that I left out) and I don't really feel significantly scaling it back would benefit the article. I'm hoping we can work it would, though, and that the article won't fail simply because of this... — Hunter Kahn 21:27, 29 April 2020 (UTC)
- No, you won't fail. I will take another look at this soon. --Kyle Peake (talk) 07:48, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Continued assessment
- I did state on this very page that I would take a look at the remainder of the critical reception section after you had made the initial changes, separated into this sub-heading so it is not confusing to read; comments for improvement can be seen below. --Kyle Peake (talk) 17:01, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

- Removed that and just used the two citations. — Hunter Kahn 19:13, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- "Steven Johnson of musicOMH wrote" → "Steven Johnson wrote" since we already know he is from musicOMH, but two Johnsons have been mentioned
- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 19:13, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- "the favorable reviews complimented" → "the favourable reviews complimented" since this is not an American article

- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 19:13, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- "He wrote: "Suddenly" → "He claimed that "suddenly" since that quote is in the middle of a sentence from the source
- Are you sure [nb 8] is needed since there is only three refs under it? Same for [nb 9], [nb 10], [nb 12], [nb 13], and [nb 15].
- The notes were not only used in instances of three or more citations, but to provide a bit more context about the specific reviewer statements. If you really insist on my removing them and replacing them with just citations, I will, but I personally perfer it this way and don't think it harms anything. — Hunter Kahn 19:13, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 19:13, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- Why is Howe's quote directly after this when you already started on his review earlier?
- This quote is referring specifically to the new criticism introduced in this part of the paragraph, about some critics disliking the concept altogether. So though I've quoted other parts of Howe's review before, I'm returning to it here because he also addresses this particularly criticism. — Hunter Kahn 19:13, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

- Changed. — Hunter Kahn 19:13, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- Don't think the final para is needed, since that is heavily repeating a lot of what is in the earlier sections.
- Only some of these bands were mentioned before, and others not at all. And most of the earlier references to some of those bands compared certain songs or elements of the album (like Byrne's vocals on "Only in a Man's World", for example) not the album as a whole like in this paragraph. — Hunter Kahn 19:13, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- I understand that, but the opinion of every single critic doesn't need to be listed; there's already been enough reviews written out in prose to form multiple paras and give an overview of what critics thought in the lead, which has absolutely no mention of this para – you can remove it. --Kyle Peake (talk) 05:09, 3 May 2020 (UTC)

Personnel
edit- Add "Credits adapted from AllMusic" at the top of the section before both musicians and technical personnel, with the AM ref solely cited at the end of the added credits statement
- I had a little trouble making the formatting work when I tried including it in both subsections. Would putting it at the top of the overall section (as I've just done) work? — Hunter Kahn 21:27, 29 April 2020 (UTC)

edit- Are you sure linking to such a large list is necessary?

- Are you sure though, since you have reused middle names elsewhere? --Kyle Peake (talk) 07:48, 30 April 2020 (UTC)

Citations
edit- Some of the ref numbers may have changed since I listed the issues with this sub-section after your responses to issues with other sections; try to attribute any that may appear misnumbered to one likely close to them in terms of numbering that meets the criteria listed below, as that will likely be the correct ref. --Kyle Peake (talk) 18:24, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- I did indeed find a few more after the changes made from this GAN review, and I've fixed them. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Copyvio is too high on refs 5, 8, 16; make sure to fix this, can be done by reducing the number of quotes and putting things into your own words but still having it make sense
- I've made some edits to reduce this. Looking at the comparisons in Copyvio, basically all the remaining flagged text are song titles, lyrics, or direct quotations... — Hunter Kahn 21:02, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Do most refs with a p number not need URLs as I'm confused since a few do have them included like The Guardian?
- The ones that only have a page number and no URL were offline sources that I used; i.e., physical magazine articles or newspaper articles I found using Lexis Nexis or Newsbank (which provides the date and page numbers). If an online version is available as well, I will include that along with the page number, but some of the ones on this article aren't available online. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Ref 3 is missing a URL and target of The Morning Sun to its page; add an access date too after fixing those issues
- This is another offline source I got from Lexis and/or Newsbank. Usually they have page numbers, and when they do I always include them, but this one does not, nor did it have an online version. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- That makes sense, but you still need to add the wikilink. --Kyle Peake (talk) 06:37, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- I added one, but there doesn't appear to be a Wikipedia entry for this newspaper, so it's a redlink currently. — Hunter Kahn 18:54, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- Should be wikilinked to The Morning Sun (Pittsburg), my bad for not pointing to the exact page; I'll fix this for you! --Kyle Peake (talk) 19:32, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

- Memphis Industries should not be italicised
- The "work" field in the cite news and cite web templates automatically italicizes, so I've changed it to the "publisher" field instead, since that doesn't have italics. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Are you sure ref 12 is from February 2002? Also, remove wikilinks on refs to David's wiki after this one.
- Oops, no, that should be 2020. Fixed that and removed the subsequent David wikilinks. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Complete Music Update should not be italicised
- Changed to publisher to remove the italics. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Ref 30 should state Peter as you have already mentioned David Brewis; same for ref 47 and use David's second mention on the latter ref as solely his forename
- I'm sorry, I don't understand what you're looking for here? — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- It's not required to mention the Brewis surname twice on the same ref(s) when it has already been established that David and Peter are related. Understand now? --Kyle Peake (talk) 06:37, 1 May 2020 (UTC)
- I believe this is fixed now. — Hunter Kahn 18:54, 2 May 2020 (UTC)

- Rough Trade should not be italicised
- Changed to publisher to remove the italics. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Allmusic should be AllMusic and not italicised
- Fixed the spelling, and changed to publisher to remove the italics. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Ref 83 shouldn't wikilink Peter Brewis since that is pointless, linking to Field Music's page
- Removed. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- On ref 89, you can just state David since you already said Peter Brewis; same for 98 and 134, and the second mention of Peter on the former should just be his forename
- I think I've addressed this now, but let me know if I haven't... — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Looks fine on these three refs now. --Kyle Peake (talk) 06:37, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

- Ref 97 date?
- Oops, yes, added. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Is ref 116 definitely from February 2002?
- That also should've been 2020. Fixed! — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- For refs 130, 131, 132 and 133, best to replace per WP:TWITTER
- I removed the first two altogether because they were just backing up something that was already cited by something else. The other two are the only citations available for their respective sentences, but they are both official Twitter accounts so I think it should be acceptable in this limited use, right? — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Yeah since it's not from the Field Music Twitter account, which would violate WP:SELFPUB. --Kyle Peake (talk) 06:37, 1 May 2020 (UTC)

- Ref 135 should mention Peter without the surname and David's second mention should only be his forename
- I think it's good now? — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Cite Official Charts Company for refs 138, 139, 141 and 142; also, remove italicisation on ref 140 for it
- Done. — Hunter Kahn 20:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Ref 147 is not formatted properly
Works cited
edit- What's up with a and b, respectively, after works one and two; why is that included?
- I use the "harvnb" template to directly link citations to these works cited, which I find to be an excellent system overall. However, when there are two separate works cited that have the same author and the same year, the template page suggests adding the A and B to the end of the year so that they can each be linked to and not mixed up with each other. See Template:Harvard citation no brackets#More than one work in a year. — Hunter Kahn 21:06, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
- Are you sure multiple publishers should be included here in parts?
- I've done this kind of thing in other GAs/FAs before and it was considered ok... — Hunter Kahn 21:06, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
External links
edit- Add discogs here; see Good Kid, M.A.A.D City as an example of how
- Done. — Hunter Kahn 21:09, 30 April 2020 (UTC)
Final comments and verdict
editWill continue with the other sections soon, hard work from you on this though! --Kyle Peake (talk) 08:30, 24 April 2020 (UTC)

I have to run right now, but I will try to look at the follow-ups you made later tonight or tomorrow, and am more than willing to work with you on any other improvements you think are necessary.

- Kyle Peake Oops, sorry I missed those initially! Done. — Hunter Kahn 19:39, 2 May 2020 (UTC)
- Hunter Kahn all you need to do is fix the reception and this should be good to go! --Kyle Peake (talk) 05:09, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
- I kept in the PJ Harvey bit, if that's OK with you, but otherwise I cut that paragraph you had suggested we eliminate. Thanks Kyle Peake! — Hunter Kahn 19:05, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
- @Hunter Kahn: ✓ Pass time has come, since you have made the necessary fixes... strong work on this, well done! --Kyle Peake (talk) 19:43, 3 May 2020 (UTC)
