[edit] Illmatic
Well-written article on a classic album. —This unsigned comment was added by HasNoClue (talk • contribs) .
- Object. No references. External link sources should follow a format similar to that of WP:CITE/ES, so that in case a page is moved or altered, it can be determined what was cited. The two album images probably don't need a fair use rationale (but should have one, ideally), and Image:Nas making illmatic.jpg and Image:Bow-wow-wanted.jpg need fair use rationales for their inclusion in the article. The former also needs to identify its source. Johnleemk | Talk 19:05, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
- Oppose, but is a good article and we could really use a WP:FA on an album. Reasons for opposition are:
-
- 2a -- Trivia section is not brilliant proese. Is instead a random list of information, some of which is not even trivial.
- 2b -- "Music" section doesn't enter into much discussion of the songs on the album.
- 2c -- Entirely too little referencing. Only references are external links to websites. Many external links are inlined, and need to be fixed.
- 3 -- doesn't follow guidelines at WP:ALBUM. Specifically, the track list is a chart with either too much information or too little.
- 3a -- Lead doesn't summarize the article. See WP:LEAD.
- 4 -- Images all need Fair use rationales.
- Best of luck! Jkelly 19:13, 18 March 2006 (UTC)
- Object per above; consider changing the external links to WP:FOOTNOTEs and adding information about the links per WP:CITE. AndyZ 00:45, 20 March 2006 (UTC)
