Expanding

[edit]

Hello @Gained:. Is it okay if I jump in to expand this (yet to be) article with you? Ippantekina (talk) 07:58, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, and actually, you can do everything you want in it. I abandoned this article a few days ago because I got bored. Gained (talk) 08:02, 7 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

[edit]
  • Infobox looks good both times!
  • "She wrote the track with John Rich and produced it" → "She wrote the song with John Rich and served as a producer"
  • ""The Way I Loved You" is about" → "it is about"
  • Remove pipe on country since contemporary country is linked in the same sentence, making this come across as a WP:OVERLINK
  • "snare drum and loud and subtle" → "snare drum, and loud and subtle"
  • Make the reception sentence the first one of the second para instead
  • Add a comma after Hot 100 and mention that the certification was in the United States
  • "the United States," → "the US," per MOS:US on mentions after the first instances
  • "received certifications from" should be a new sentence saying "The song received platinum and silver certifications in Australia and the United Kingdom from the..." and then mention the two certification organizations, respectively
  • "The re-recorded track received mostly positive comments" → "The re-recording received mostly positive reviews"

Background and writing

[edit]
  • "contain autobiographical themes," → "contains autobiographical themes,"
  • "said that Rich "was able to relate to it because" → "said that Rich managed to be relatable "because" to avoid overquoting and re-invoke the ref at the end of each of these sentences that use direct quotes
    •  Not done – I'm not sure about the sentence you suggested, I had to read it a couple times to understand it. I'm thinking of something like "said that Rich managed to feel for it" or something like that; what do you think? Gained (talk) 05:47, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Releases

[edit]
  • Img looks good!
  • Remove link on Fearless and mention the position of the track on the album
    I just added another source to mention and verify the track's position. Gained (talk) 10:35, 5 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Mention that the certification was in the United States
  • Remove overly obvious link on Lisbon since this is a capital city
  • Second para looks good!
  • "with peaks of 94[21] and 24,[22]" → "with peaks at numbers 94[21] and 24,[22]"
  • Mention the two countries those certifications were in

Music and lyrics

[edit]
  • ""The Way I Loved You" is a" → "Musically, "The Way I Loved You" is a"
  • "oriented country[4] and rock" → "oriented country, rock" and I would suggest moving all of these refs to the end of the sentence as the order generally lines up with info here
Whoops, I didn't saw that. Thank you for mentioning it! Gained (talk) 13:00, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Critical reception

[edit]
  • "and wrote that the production was" → "and that the production was"
  • "evoked her previous "Avril Lavigne-esque sneer [...] hits" but" → "evoked Swift's previous "Avril Lavigne-esque sneer [...] hits", but"
  • "delightfully dramatic" [...] which," → "delightfully dramatic – which,"
  • "was devoid of "radio-ready hooks and megawatt" → "is devoid of radio-friendly hooks and "megawatt"
  • "gave it "new life"." → "give it "new life"."
  • Remove link on Vulture

Personnel

[edit]

Charts

[edit]
  • Good

Certifications

[edit]
  • Shouldn't this section follow the previous one's blueprint of having the separate tables and captions rather than sub-sections especially since the first version only had one certification?
    • Oh yeah, I just noticed it and I have removed it to follow the previous section's format. Thank you for the thorough observation, it seems strange that we have different formats for these sections. Gained (talk) 05:47, 4 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Note

[edit]
  • Good

References

[edit]
  • Copyvio score looks safe at 23.1%!!!!
  • Ref 1 should cite the original URL (https://www.songwriteruniverse.com/taylorswift123.htm) with the archived link rather than the homepage of the website and the current duplicate of the same URL and fix MOS:QWQ issues
  • Replace ref 7 and 18's people parameter with the others parameter
  • Cite MTV as publisher instead on ref 11
  • I am confused by ref 14; the original URL is CNN but the archive is CTV News, which one are you meaning to cite?

Sources

[edit]
  • Good
