I do believe "Selena day" was April 16, 1995 not 1994.
The composition section needs copy-editing.
I had done some editing. Will put the article on hold.
Sorry must of missed that one. Thanks for your review, I had asked another editor to do a quick c/e of the composition section. Thanks, AJona1992 (talk) 20:05, 13 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
Since the reviewer forgot about this apparently, I took a stab at it. Here are my concerns:
"Selena's brother and music producer, A.B. Quintanilla III," no comma needed after producer, both in the lead and background sections.
"Quintanilla later wanted the song to be a cumbia, which is a popular music genre among Colombian's, mix with techno." mixed with techno
"Cumbia song mixed with Techno." Techno's capitalized here but not in the part above; keep that consistent.
"While Suzette Quintanilla, Selena's sister, believed that if Selena was still alive, Los Dinos would have been performing that type of "cumbia"." this is confusing as worded. I kinda get what it's trying to say, but it's a sentence fragment as is and doesn't fit in the background section all that well. You can try rewording it, but removing it entirely may be best.
""Techno Cumbia" has been performed in" was performed.. gets the point across better.
"Selena performed and promoted the song during her Amor Prohibido Tour (1994–95).[12]" the years aren't really needed, and the sentence actually feels redundant, as the section makes this quite clear.
"Sara M. Misemer and Walter Aaron Clark, " no comma needed here.
"about "Techno Cumbia"'s different taste in music genres, had helped it to be" which had helped.
"had helped it to be more acceptable to the Spanish-international market: "The most compelling tunes were the ones aimed at the Spanish-international market: "Techno Cumbia"," this is pretty redundant, even though one is a quote and one's not. I'd remove the quote part and have the quote start at Techno.
"A.B. Quintanilla to received gold and platinum plaques for the Selena albums he helped produce.[27] According to Billboard, "Techno Cumbia" is the earliest example of a song that fuses the Pop and Cumbia rap genres.[28] After Selena's murder, her brother A.B. Quintanilla" in both parts it can just can Quintanilla, and her brother doesn't need to be repeated as we got that earlier.
Fixed all concerns. Happy holidays, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 15:46, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
