I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it meets FL criteria. Lists I used as reference while writing it included List of songs recorded by Katy Perry and List of songs recorded by Taylor Swift. I don't see anything that would hinder it from being featured. All input is appreciated. Thanks.--NØ 16:34, 16 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

- Looking over this article, everything looks good for the most part. The only thing that really stands out to me is that AllMusic isn't linked in refs 12, 17, 19, and 23. However, this is minor so it won't withhold my support. Well done JOEBRO64 17:34, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you. I’ve purposely only linked websites in the first instance of them being used as references to avoid overlinking. It’s done the same way on other FAs and GAs.—NØ 19:42, 16 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from Aoba47
edit- For this sentence (When Trainor signed with Epic Records in February 2014, her three self-produced albums were pulled from circulation), you can use “she” instead of “Trainor” as it is clear from the context, and to avoid the repetition of her name, which is repeated in all three sentences of the opening paragraph.
- I do not believe the “1950s in music” wikilink for 1950s is needed as it is somewhat ambigious. There were a lot of different styles of music in the 1950s and I doubt that Trainor covered all of them in her EP. I think that the wikilink for “doo woop” clears up the genre and is more beneficial for a reader who wants to research more about the style of music.
- For this sentence (Its lyrical composition contemplates 21st century womanhood.), I would just say “lyrics” instead of “lyrical composition” for more concise language. Remember to adjust the verb accordingly.
- I have two comments for this sentence (Trainor initially released three independent albums: Meghan Trainor (2009), I'll Sing with You (2011), and Only 17 (2011).). I do not believe “initially” is needed as we, the reader, already know that this is the first in the timeline of Trainor’s release given the release dates and it is the first thing mentioned in the lead. Also, I would say “self-released” to let the reader know that she did on her own as opposed to an indie record label.
- I would revise this sentence (Artists who collaborated on the album include Chris Gelbuda, Jesse Frasure, John Legend and Shy Carter.) to something like this (She collaborate with other artists, including Chris Gelbuda, Jesse Frasure, John Legend and Shy Carter, for the album).
- Remove the wikilinks for “1950s in music” and “1960s in music”.
- For this sentence (Title was inspired by Trainor's love for throwback style records, and music from the 1950s and 1960s), I do not believe the comma after “records” is needed.
- For this part (She combined different musical genres, including caribbean, doo-wop, hip hop, soca and pop, for the album's songs), you could just use “album” instead of “album’s songs” to be more concise.
- For this part (She combined different musical genres, including caribbean, doo-wop, hip hop, soca and pop, for the album's songs.), the word “Caribbean” should be capitalized.
- You have R&B linked twice in the lead.
- I have two questions about this sentences (The R&B album was created in hopes that the singer will showcase her caribbean side, and her love for Aretha Franklin, Bruno Mars and Elvis Presley.). Who is the person doing the “hoping” here? Trainor, the record company, producers/songwriters for the album? And I do not understand what you mean by “her Caribbean side”. The link goes to the geographic region, but Trainor does not appear to have ties to the region through family. This requires further clarification.
- In the lead, you only mention her guest feature on “Just Got Paid”. Do you think her other features, such as “Marvin Gaye” should be mentioned?
- Do you think that Trainor’s soundtrack contributions (i.e. The Peanuts Movie and the Smurfs) should be mentioned in the lead?
Wonderful work with this list. Once my comments are addressed, I will be more than happy to support this for promotion. If you have the time, I would greatly appreciate feedback on my current FAC. Either way, have a great rest of your weekend and start to your week! This inspires me to do more work on music-related lists as it has been a minute since I have done so.

- All Done. I only mentioned Marvin Gaye among her features though since thats the only successful song she has featured on aside from Just Got Paid. I was hoping you would comment here since you helped with all the other lists, but I saw you tell someone on your talk page that you're not reviewing featured content currently so I didn't bother you lol. Great review!--NØ 05:05, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Thank you for addressing everything. Since I have decided to resume nominating articles through the FAC process, I thought it was only fair to review other people's FACs and FLCs. I have already reviewed both editors' FLCs already just so you know. I just have one more suggestion before I can support this. For the following sentence (has contributed two songs to soundtracks: "Better When I'm Dancin'" and "I'm a Lady".), you mention that she did "two songs" for soundtracks, which is not true according to the chart. She did record one other song for The Peanuts Movie. I would also add the titles of the films to the lead. Aoba47 (talk) 05:19, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
- Since this has been addressed, I support this for promotion. Aoba47 (talk) 06:49, 24 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
Source review passed; there were a couple small sorting issues with the table but I just fixed them; promoting. --PresN 06:05, 28 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]
