Oranges & Lemons (album)

edit
  • ... that XTC's 1989 album Oranges & Lemons reinterprets 1960s psychedelic music styles through modern instrumentation and technology?
    • ALT1: ... that XTC's 1989 album Oranges & Lemons reinterprets 1960s psychedelic music styles by using the sounds and technology of the 1980s? Source: "Partridge's ethos for this album appears to be a continuation of the Dukes Of Stratosphear aesthetic -- exploring the sound and colors of their '60s influences -- but he makes the unfortunate step of trying to filter it through modern instrumentation and technology."

  • Comment: save for February 27, 2019 (the date of the album's 50th anniversary)

5x expanded by Ilovetopaint (talk). Self-nominated at 20:24, 10 November 2018 (UTC).

General: Article is new enough and long enough

Policy compliance:

Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: None required.

Overall: Nominator's first nomination so no QPQ needed. Earwigs gives a >70% score but that's because of the quotations, that are cited inline. This will be good to go once the Singles section is sourced. Unfortunately, per the special occassion hook guidelines, special date requests should generally be made no more than six weeks before the requested date, and February 2019 is too far away. Thus, the request has to be respectfully declined. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:01, 23 November 2018 (UTC)

  • Done (removed the singles section) --Ilovetopaint (talk) 18:01, 1 December 2018 (UTC)
Yeah, I'm sorry about that. I got pretty busy and wasn't able to get back to this. I'll try taking another look by tomorrow. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 10:19, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
@Ilovetopaint: This is almost ready for approval, just add a general footnote to the Personnel section and this will be good to go. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 23:22, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
Footnote for what?--Ilovetopaint (talk) 23:24, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
@Ilovetopaint: The "Personnel" section lacks references for the staff. A single footnote to the liner notes or something could work in this case, though. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 23:42, 23 December 2018 (UTC)
 Done--Ilovetopaint (talk) 17:31, 8 January 2019 (UTC)
@Ilovetopaint: The footnotes are still missing from the Personnel section. I'd also suggest adding footnotes for the track listing. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 02:57, 10 January 2019 (UTC)

Thanks, good to go now. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 11:05, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
  • @Ilovetopaint and Narutolovehinata5: I was going to promote this to a Feb 27th slot, but I do not believe the hook facts, of which there are several, are cited inline (at the end of the sentence they are in and not the end of the paragraph). The word "reimagine" does not appear in the article and is probably the wrong word for the hook. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:48, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
  • @Cwmhiraeth: Changed to "reinterprets" — the info is cited under "Music and lyrics" Ilovetopaint (talk) 11:11, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
  • Thanks. Restoring tick based on Narutolovehinata5's review. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 11:26, 18 February 2019 (UTC)
  • "Modern instrumentation and technology" is a direct quote from the source; I put it in quotes in the article, but wonder if it would look odd to do that in the hook. Also, please provide a cite for the date of release. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 20:45, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
  • Thank you. Restoring tick for ALT1 per Cwmhiraeth's review. Yoninah (talk) 21:19, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
