Hello, I am Carbrera, and I'll be reviewing this article for possible good article submission.
Full review coming very soon. Carbrera (talk) 02:16, 30 March 2016 (UTC)
Infobox
edit- The single cover image needs an alt.
- I don't think that the cover image is acceptable here; it wasn't made specifically for "No Man's Land", so this cannot be the official cover, even if it was used for the promotional CD singles or whatever it was used for
- Change the genre from 'Rock music' to 'Rock'
- The track listing's numbers are messed up; it skips from 13 to 3...?
- Remove the "Miscellaneous" part from the infobox
Lead
editParagraph 2
edit- If 'heavy metal' is mentioned here, shouldn't it be mentioned above as well?
- "lovers life." → "lover's life."
- "favourable to mixed" → "mixed to positive"
- You need a period (.) at the end of the final sentence in this paragraph
Paragraph 3
edit- "Because it was released digitally, "No Man's Land"..." → "Due to "No Man's Land" being released digitally, it..."
- Shouldn't the semi-colon be a colon?
Background
edit- Remove the semi-colon after "main record labels"
- Remove "has" after "Mr. Blistah..."
Composition
editParagraph 1
edit- Nice addition of a sample!
- If she herself described the song as "Heavy metal", it should definitely be included in the genre(s) above in the infobox
Paragraph 2
edit- Remove "online store"
- Insert "the" before "English and Japanese language"
- Insert "s" after "English and Japanese language"
Release
edit- You could probably add this entire section to 'Background' and change the section title to 'Background and release'
- What do you mean by "Because Japonesque was released in Taiwan, the song and its music video was released on all formats?"; I don't see the relationship between the two
- "the song and its music video was released on all formats" → "the song and its music video were released on all formats"
- "same released date" → "same release date"
Critical and commercial responses
edit- Rename as "Critical reception"
Paragraph 1
edit- "Upon its release," → "After its release,"
- "favourable to mixed" → "mixed to positive"
- You use "commended" and "commending" a lot; you can also use "appreciated", "enjoyed", etc.
- Remove the link to Asian Junkie; it will be perfectly fine without one
Paragraph 2
edit- You can remove this entirely; it's too short to warrant a separate paragraph and it only charted in one country–see my point?
Music video
editBackground and synopsis
editParagraph 1
edit- Why is the text centered in the picture to the right?
Paragraph 3
edit- "cited it" → "declared it"
Release, controversy, and ban
edit- Unfortunately, I am not fluent (or even near fluent) in Japanese. And I do not know of how to contact a Japanese Wikipedian; since you are right about the original research part, I would remove the section entirely, and from the lead as well; let me know what you decide to do!
Live performances and other inclusions
edit- Remove this: "The performance at Kanagawa Arena on September 8 received positive remarks from music critics;" (It's unnecessary since each performance is the same.)
End of GA Review:
editAnother very good article; just some tidying up needs to happen. The music video controversy section should be removed so it doesn't include WP:OR. Thanks again! Carbrera (talk) 03:00, 2 April 2016 (UTC)
- @CaliforniaDreamsFan: Are you done with this yet? I reread this and it looks fantastic. Carbrera (talk) 02:23, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
- @Carbrera: Give me a few more ticks (minutes) to re-read some areas just in case it doesn't cross over into the WP:Original research category. I'll let you know once I'm done re-reading it. Cheers, CaliforniaDreamsFan (talk · contribs} 02:26, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
