(Criteria marked are unassessed)

Lead and infobox

[edit]
  • I see why you included two YouTube links, but personally I'd keep one only.
  • "song by American singer-songwriter Bob Dylan, which was released as the first track" grammar
  • Any way we can remove the quote and citation from the lead?
  • I'd sum up the lyrical content in one concise sentence. The rest of the info can be elaborated in prose later
  • "The song has been covered by British progressive rock group Hard Meat (1970), by Todd Rundgren (1976), and by Patti LaBelle" you should either introduce who they all are or just leave their names

Critical comments

[edit]
  • The section currently reads a little staccato. Some remarks i.e. "a demented marching polka beat", "mix of desire, regret, jealousy, and disgust" can be part of the previous section. I'd also paraphrase some to avoid a quote farm.

Live performances

[edit]
  • "it reached number 66 on the Billboard Hot 100,[30][31] and 47th on the Cash Box Top 100 Pop Singles" change to "number 47" for consistency
  • The quote farm issue recurs here

Covers and remix

[edit]
  • Italicize The Sentinel
  • The Record) has a redundant bracket
  • Italicize The Joplin Globe

Formatting

[edit]
  • Sources are reliable and properly formatted.
  • Optional: have you thought of including chart performance tables for the song?

Verdict

[edit]
  • The only notable issue is the overuse of quotes, which should be easy to solve given your Wikipedia expertise. Other than that, a few minor issues scattered here and there. Putting this  On hold for seven days. Cheers, Ippantekina (talk) 03:58, 4 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
