(Criteria marked are unassessed)

Lead

• "Jepsen wrote it with songwriter Simon Wilcox, and Benjamin Berger and Ryan Rabin from its production team Captain Cuts": What are you referring to when you say "its"? Are Berger and Rabin not humans?
• I would introduce Schoolboy Records and Interscope Records as record labels.

Background and release

• "Jepsen announced that the album, titled The Loneliest Time, will be released on October 21, 2022": As you are talking about a past event, "will be" should be "would be".
• "Jepsen wrote "Talking to Yourself" alongside songwriter Simon Wilcox, and Benjamin Berger and Ryan Rabin from its production team Captain Cuts": See point above about the "its".
• "School Boy and Interscope Records released...": See point above about introducing them.
• "...along with a music video, as the album's third single, three days later": What are all these commas for?

Composition and lyrics

• "...Eli Heisler, Berger and Wilcox programmed it...": Shouldn't this comma be a semicolon?
• "pulsating, beat-driven": Why are there quotation marks? Is this someone speaking (if so, source the statement), or just scare quotes?

Critical reception

• "Consequence picked the track as...": Consequence should be in italics.

Unfortunately, my attempt to add this to the file page was thwarted by a message saying "You do not have the permission to review images, this edit was therefore disabled". Everything else addressed upto here!--NØ 04:53, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

How strange; it did not let me to so either. Oh well. In any case, I will pass this GA nomination. It was wonderful working with you again on a quality article, and I hope to see more from you soon. Unlimitedlead (talk) 12:17, 3 June 2023 (UTC)
