Proposed deletion of Punk Bunny Coffee

The article Punk Bunny Coffee has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Article reads like an advertisement, and I can barely find any sources following the name change.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

New page reviewer granted

Hi The Sharpest Lives, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the new page reviewer user right to your account. This means you now have access to the page curation tools and can start patrolling pages from the new pages feed. If you asked for this at requests for permissions, please check back there to see if your access is time-limited or if there are other comments.

This is a good time to re-acquaint yourself with the guidance at Wikipedia:New pages patrol. Before you get started, please take the time to:

• Add Wikipedia talk:New pages patrol/Reviewers to your watchlist to follow NPP-related discussions
• If you use Twinkle, configure it to log your CSDs and PRODs
• If you can read any languages other than English, add yourself to the list of reviewers with language proficiencies

You can find a list of other useful links and tools for patrollers at Wikipedia:New pages patrol/Resources. If you are ever unsure what to do, ask your fellow patrollers or just leave the page for someone else to review – you're not alone! _signed, Rosguill ^talk 14:45, 5 June 2024 (UTC)

Good article mentorship

I had a look at the article myself plus its review page, and I think it could use a bit more comments.

• The NFUR for the sample can be improved, and you might want to be a bit more stringent in that regard when reviewing. IMO "most ambitious" is not a helpful description that can be intuited using a sample, and more concrete commentary on the composition should be the focus instead if samples are to be used on music articles.
• In reviews, you should also make sure to look at:
  • the article's concision, part of criterion 1a (e.g. the two uses of "It was announced" and the statement "It peaked at No. 1 on the Australian Music Radio Airplay Project (AMRAP) Metro Charts, remaining in that position for two weeks" can be trimmed)
  • the lead (where is the description of the album's lyrics and music?)
  • and use of quotations (many of the lineson the critical reception section can be paraphrased).
• For more general advice, if you are reviewing a song or album article, it helps to look at similar articles that are already GAs to see what such an article should or should not have.

Other than that, I think you have a good grasp of the other criterion so far. Good work on pointing out possible copyvio, taking the time to assess the use of visual and aural media, and asking about the use of primary sources. PSA 🏕️🪐 (please make some noise...) 03:37, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
