Lead

[edit]

 Done Thank you, I always forget about keeping citations out of the lead section... I've cut down most of them (they're all featured throughout the article, anyway), while also trying to add some more relevant details.

Background and recording

[edit]
  • First paragraph is all one sentence, can it be broken up
  • "[Forestdale], [Hereford] and [Los Angeles]." makes it seem like Foresdale is a city Hereford.
  • Maybe worth noting that Los Angeles is in the US while the other two are in the UK

 Done I've made a few adjustments and re-shuffled the second paragraph, in order to make it clearer and smoother.

Music and lyrics

[edit]
  • That last paragraph appears to be one long sentence. Can it be broken up

 Done I've tried to break up the sentence as requested; let me know how it looks now!

Release and promotion

[edit]
  • Unpipe "Brooklyn, New York" per WP:NOTBROKEN
  • "Los Angeles" should be "Los Angeles, California" for constancy
  • Delink "Los Angeles" for consistancy

 Done Does it look better now? I've also tried to improve the grammar slightly!

Critical reception

[edit]
  • Delink "NME" for consistancy

 Done It took me a minute to understand your request, but eventually I got it and complied to it! : D

Track listing

[edit]
  • Note A seems incorrectly formatted]'

Question? Are you sure about that? I think it should work correctly as it is...

References

[edit]
  • Linking is inconsistent in the ref’s. Some link publications some dont
  • Ref 14 seems unnecessary.
  • Ref 18 shouldn't be in all caps

 Done I've now deleted that Warner Music Ireland citation: I just felt it wasn't necessary anymore. I actually don't remember if I added that reference to the "five fortnights" myself, but I've now moved it to make its meaning clearer. I've also tried to make ref-linking more consistent: whenever a source was repeatedly cited (e.g. The Line of Best Fit, NME), I left a link just on the first citation. Let me know if it looks better!

Misc

[edit]
  • There seems to be too many quotes present

Question? Did you mean the interview quotes, or the ones in the "Critical reception" section?

@OlifanofmrTennant: Thank you for your review: I've tried my best at cleaning the article up and complying to your suggestions. Let me know how it looks now!
On a side note: I haven't forgot about reviewing your article, I promise... : ) Oltrepier (talk) 14:05, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Generally, throughout the page there is a lot of quotes can these be paraphrased Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 20:27, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
@OlifanofmrTennant I've now trimmed down most of the quotes, as you suggested. Please let me know how you feel about it! Oltrepier (talk) 21:12, 1 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
