OK, notes here. Looks very good at first glance. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 11:12, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • There are rather alot of direct quotes in the article; changing these into regular prose is alot kinder on the eyes. Even if a few can be converted, that would be a help.
  • It has been suggested that "Bohemian Rhapsody" was influenced by the 10cc song - weaselly, can we add in who suggested it (?)
  • ...it had been suggested to him that, at 5 minutes and 55 seconds.. - be nice to get who suggested to him.
  • The song dominated the 1975 UK Christmas number one needs a "spot" at the end (??)

OK, just minor things really. nearly there. nice work. Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 11:26, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your review and comments. I've addressed the minor ones. I'll see if I can rework some of the quotations. I used quotations a lot here, especially in the 'Music and lyrics' section, to avoid accusations of OR. The JPStalk to me 11:39, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, it is tricky I agree. I feel even if a few can be converted without changing meaning it would really help with flow (there are certainly lots to choose from) Cheers, Casliber (talk · contribs) 13:03, 22 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
OK, I've made some minor tweaks. I've tried leaving the more interpretative quotations alone, though. The JPStalk to me 10:14, 23 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
