Andrzejbanas coming back to this? The Rambling Man (Keep wearing the mask...) 07:26, 17 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
The Rambling Man, sorry about that, got a bit distracted this week. I've updated your suggestions. Andrzejbanas (talk) 13:04, 17 September 2021 (UTC)Reply
  • "Your Love" was played in clubs from tape for over" do you mean cassette?
  • "cassette tape version played that played" needs fixing.
  • "previously done remixing work for hire," rewrite, not professional writing.
  • "italian" Italian.

You know what, I think this needs more help than I can offer at the GAN. I'm asking you to make fundamental and basic corrections to English which I would not expect to have to do at this stage. I suggest you send it to WP:GOCE to get it thoroughly copyedited, and that may take a few weeks to facilitate. I'm sorry but I'll fail this. Once it's copyedited and back up at GAN, drop me a line and I'll happily pick it up again so you don't have a lengthy wait at GAN.

Infobox and lead

edit
  • Remove refs from the infobox since they aren't needed for writing credits
I've moved the citations to the track listing section here. I think that should clarify it. Andrzejbanas (talk) 19:48, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Chicago house genre needs to be written in the music area because one mention of a list later on is not sufficient
Not to be particular, but what rule breaks this? I feel a bit conflicted as calling this "Chicago house" (which I think in contemporary terms is fine), but not sure if such a regional term was used at the time, so I feel like the Rolling Stone article is fine enough. If not, i can try to dig something up, but how would you like me to approach this? Andrzejbanas (talk) 19:48, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Introduce who Bryan Walton really is because he's the main artist
Not sure what you mean here, i introduce him as Jamie Principle in the same sentence int he lead. What would you suggest here? Andrzejbanas (talk) 19:48, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • Add "for the final release" after the above term instead of current stuff, as the release date has already been specified
Sure, but i've re-phrased it a pinch, because "final" sounds like, there hasn't been releases, remixes of it since, and their surely has been. Andrzejbanas (talk) 19:48, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • "is commonly credited to Frankie Knuckles despite it having" → "is often credited to Knuckles, despite having"
Done. Andrzejbanas (talk) 19:48, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Remove the ref from the lead since this is not the appropriate place
I've been told in the past that if you have a quote, even if it's in the lead, it requires a citation. To balance this out, i've just re-phrased this slightly. Andrzejbanas (talk) 19:48, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Done, I think. Andrzejbanas (talk) 20:08, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
  • Regarding the usage of [8] in the last three sentences, it should only be after the final one of the para

Music and additional production

edit
  • The part about it being played on tape should not be in this section, especially when it's in the following one anyway
This is tricky for me, as I'm trying to state that the song was played in clubs, but it wasn't officialyl released yet and was not the same version people are more familiar with from the recording. What's a better way to phrase this? I've tried to clarify this. Andrzejbanas (talk) 20:27, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • "extensively samples an italian" → "takes inspiration from an Italian" per the source, unless this is an interpolation then write interpolates
I've re-phrased this, because i feel it's a big WP:EGG to link "disco" to Italo-disco which is a unique genre. But i've rephrsaed it anywaysAndrzejbanas (talk) 20:27, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

  • Mention when "On and On" was released for context
To quote Johan Kugelberg in his liner notes for Big Apple Rappin', " Small record companies run by independent entrepreneurs hustling to make a buck, don't keep detailed documentation on the records they release" We have a copyright date on the record, but I don't feel comfortable adding a year like that which may not be accurate. I think from the sentence alone, people can gauge that it was around the same time. Andrzejbanas (talk) 21:20, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply

Final comments and verdict

edit
Hey hey @Kyle Peake:. I think i've tackled most things, I had few questions along the way that maybe you could address. Thanks for your patience with me on this one. Andrzejbanas (talk) 21:34, 15 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Andrzejbanas I am relieved to see you have responded by now and your strong effort here is definitely commendable; the only problems I have are that you should use the American house artist introduction in the lead and remove the double speech marks from that Vice ref. Also, I advise you to always have infobox genres written out in music sections since any mere mention in reception is not the appropriate context for sourcing them, sources should be invoked after any sentences using direct quoting like you've done after my suggestions and the clubs brief mention in music is fine per its relevance. --K. Peake 09:04, 16 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
Hey hey. I've added what I think you requested here. (I've added the genre part to the "Music" section as well earlier). I may be misunderstanding the quote section on Vice but I think that's everything. Andrzejbanas (talk) 11:16, 16 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
 Pass now, I removed the redundant usage of the word "the" in the lead during a slight copyedit! --K. Peake 19:07, 17 January 2022 (UTC)Reply
