Lead

"He performed in North America, South America, and Spain". I have checked the article on the tour, and it seems he performed in Central America as well. Perhaps it should be just "The Americas".

Done

"music critics" is just a common term and does not need to be linked.

Done

The infobox lists the genre as "pop", but the Allmusic entry lists "Latin" and "Pop/Rock". Perhaps it should be Latin pop and Latin rock?

Not done See WP:RSMUSIC, "Biography/staff reviews are reliable, but do not use sidebar, as it may be user-generated or otherwise separately sourced from the prose."

Background and recording

Again, no need to link to "music critics"

Done

What happened with Manuel Alejandro, why doesn't he help with this new album? Was he dropped because of the criticism? Or was that meant to be a one-time thing from the start? He is mentioned, and then not mentioned anymore.

I couldn't find a source why he chose not to collaborate with Luis Miguel anymore. Should I remove this?

Allmusic is just a general database of raw data, which is fine for specific data (such as the details in the infobox) but not so much for text in prose. Don't you have a better reference?

See above on Allmusic.

"Final name" and "final title" is a bit repetitive, as you say one right after the other. Perhaps you can just use "name" when talking about he name after the mystery.

Done

"Luis Miguel described the record as another chapter of his life"

Done

Composition

There's a quotation of Luis Miguel, ending with "Luis Miguel added". Added to what? The "concluyó" in the source makes sense because they provided two quotations one after the other. Here, with both quotations joined as one, you should use something else, such as "Luis Miguel said".

Done

The whole thing with Shakira sounds a bit suspicious and WP:GOSSIP. "According to an American television channel"? Yeah, right, which American television channel? And better yet, which TV program from it? And the one who said that to that unnamed TV channel was... an unnamed employee of Warner Music? And then they give the excuse that both artists refuse to talk about personal stuff, so this info would be hard to confirm. Yeah, right: personal stuff are their relatives, friends, or things they do as hobbies, not a shared work with another established artist. And even if something turned out wrong and they don't want to talk about it... that's what agents and spokesman are for. Unless there are better sources with more clear and attributed content, I would remove this.

Done

Release and promotion

"A deluxe edition of the album was released on 18 January 2011 which contains remixes of "Labios de Miel", "Mujer de Fuego", "Tal Vez Me Mientes", and "Es Por Ti" done by Adrian Pieragostino and a calendar" You need to add a comma between "Pieragostino" and the second "and", otherwise it would be written as if "Pieragostino and a calendar" did the remixes. Also, is there something to say about that calendar? What made it special and worthy of a deluxe edition CD?

Done

Triunfo del amor is a telenovela not a soap opera. That's a similar, but different, genre.

Done

The "Tour" subsection seems a bit too short, just 3 lines. Isn't there anything else to say about it?

@Franlm14: I'll leave this to you.

Critical reception

Now that we are at it, "music critics" in in fact redundant. Just "critics" should suffice. What other kind of critics, if not music critics, would write opinions of a music album?

Done

"Labio de Miel"? I thought that the song was in plural, "Labios de miel".

Done

Commercial performance

This section seems fine Cambalachero (talk) 19:42, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Cambalachero: Hey I remember you! You're part of Latin music project as a contributor Argentine rock music! How have you been? Anyways, see my above comments. Erick (talk) 20:49, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm fine, I'm working with some editing drives. The article is mostly ready. More detail on Alejandro's absence would have been fine, but we can live without it if there's no info. I had also thought that a free photo from the tour would have been great, but I couldn't find any on Commons, on Flickr, or even on Google images, so I didn't mention it. We would just need to expand the text on the tour a bit more, let's wait for Franlm14 to do it in the next days. Cambalachero (talk) 15:54, 2 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
