Infobox and lead

[edit]
  • Change Official lyric video to Lyric video in the infobox
  • Remove the No Rome stage name, as that is not notable for the lead when already written in the body
  • "The track was created as an homage" → "The song was created as a homage"
  • "by Joseph Beuys entitled" → "by Joseph Beuys, titled" to avoid repetitive wording
  • Remove the word "skittering" from the lead since it's not appropriate language for here
  • "Thematically, the track deals with" → "Thematically, the song deals with"
  • The opening sentence of the third para currently reads like a run-on; start a new sentence at the parts that were praised
  • Remove the part about the lack of a single release since it was common for non-singles to chart in 2018 like is the case now
  • "the track reached number 29" → "The song reached number 29"
  • Wikilink lyric video per MOS:LINK2SECT
  • "It features the track's lyrics" → "It features the song's lyrics"

Background

[edit]
  • Retitle to Background and development
  • Quote box looks good!
  • First para looks good again!!!
  • "compresses, punctuates his voice," → "compresses and punctuates his voice," with the pipe
  • "perception of the United States," → "perception of the US," per MOS:US

Music and lyrics

[edit]
  • Audio sample looks good!
  • "composed in the styles of" → "composed in the genres of"
  • [16][17] should be swapped to be correctly ordered with the prose, as the latter is the one that backs up electronic
  • Are you sure "a bed of" is the correct term or should it be replaced with something more appropriate for Wiki?
  • [22] [23][19] should be put in numerical order, plus remove excess spacing
  • Remove pipe on autotuned
  • "Will Richards of" → "while Will Richards of"
  • [30][24] put in numerical order
  • Wikilink youth culture
  • "in the United States." → "in the US." per MOS:US
  • "style,[33] and only a few lines are" → "style;[33] only a few lines are" per British English
  • [20] does not back any of those quotes up but [24] does, so maybe invoke that here instead?
  • "("I'm scared of dying!")," → "("I'm scared of dying!")"
  • "repeatedly exclaiming the phrase" → "repeatedly exclaims the phrase"
  • [29][26] put in numerical order
  • Img looks good!
  • "Juan Rodriguez of" → "while Juan Rodriguez of"
  • "but ends with the" → "but the end has the"
  • Pipe chorus to Refrain

Reception

[edit]
  • Img looks good!
  • "and used" → "with him using"
  • "noted the band sounded" → "noted the band sounds"
  • Should Auto-Tune use capitalisation when you did not on the second instance?
  • "take some responsibility." → "take some responsibility."" per MOS:QUOTE on full sentences
  • "Dan Stubbs of NME called the lyrics" → "Stubbs called the lyrics"
  • "the band's early EPs." → "the 1975's early EPs."
  • Remove the part about the lack of a single release per my earlier comment

Promotion

[edit]
  • Wikilink lyric video per MOS:LINK2SECT
  • "while lyrics scroll" → "while the lyrics scroll"

  • "with the band" → "with the other band members"
  • "in Corden's chair" → "in James Corden's chair" with the wikilink
  • "highlight the other band members." → "highlight the other members."

Final comments and verdict

[edit]
  • @(CA)Giacobbe:  Pass now, very good to see your response mere hours after the review was wrapped up. The only issue was The Fader ref being invoked twice in one sentence when it was only used for the first part, so I removed the ref from the end. --K. Peake 12:30, 27 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
