I've listed this article for peer review because I have the goal of getting it to Good Article status.

This article has been taken to GAN, but I'm delaying closure of this PR, as a quick-fail is unfortunately likely. I can contribute some comments here later today. —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 15:03, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from TechnoSquirrel69

Hey Ktkvtsh! Here are some suggestions for how I think this article can be improved.

As noted on the talk page, the most pressing concern is the lack of citations for a significant amount of content. Since this article falls under the biographies of living persons policy, these should probably be removed unless it can be immediately sourced.
§ Career is not in chronological order.
Since only "Rise Up" has appeared on a chart, I think that the columns for the chart positions can be removed, and the table turned into a simple list per MOS:TABLE. The chart appearances for this single could be mentioned in a footnote, or elsewhere in the prose of the article, perhaps in the section discussing Riskykidd's Eurovision performances.
Is zobbel.de a reliable source?
The external links need to be reformatted for style. I'm not sure if the Discogs one should be included at all, but in any case, the section should comply with the external links guideline.
As a general note for improvement, I'd recommend you go through a few of the featured articles on musicians and try to replicate the style and layout they have. A lot of the points I'm bringing up are fixed issues, and taking inspiration from content that has passed an FAC is a good way to get your content up to that level as well.

I hope that's some help. Good luck with your GAN either now or in the future, and let me know if you have any questions! —TechnoSquirrel69 (sigh) 19:08, 9 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Z1720

Comments after a quick skim:

The lede should be expanded and include a summary of all sections of the article.
"At the age of 14, he moved to Athens, Greece, and became a naturalized citizen, holding dual citizenship with the United Kingdom and Greece. He is married with two children." Needs a citation.
"He was again nominated for Best Duet/Collaboration at the MAD VMAs in 2017 alongside Demy on the "This is Love" music video. Riskykidd has performed at the awards show on several occasions." Needs a citation.
"Music Releases" section doesn't have citations, which is a problem.
