- Hey @Brachy0008! The reason that there is no "Personnel" section for the original song is because there's actually no info on them. The liner notes of the album dosen't have credits at all, just the prologue and the songs. Gained (talk) 06:36, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- understandable. however, some other Speak Now articles were able to milk personnel information from tidal. also, isn’t haunted a promotional single? Brachy08 (Talk) 07:35, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- I personally don't think Tidal is a good source for personnels as per WP:AFFILIATE, and I can't access it anyway. And no, "Haunted" is not a promotional single; the acoustic version is. Gained (talk) 08:23, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- I mean... songs like mine are walking around wikipedia as GAs with tidal-supported personnel sections Brachy08 (Talk) 09:21, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- Well... Tidal has been one of the standard source for personnels for years, but I still find it sketchy as Swift nor Big Machine never released the official credits. Gained (talk) 09:31, 20 May 2024 (UTC)

It's me! Hi! I'm the reviewer, it's me. Don't mind me, just reviewing an article I created (and was later stolen) about yet another Taylor Swift song =D.
Not so much comments yet (due to my shitty iPad external keyboard not working, so i has to resort to the digital and more shittier one), however a first look into the article, it seems a bit incomplete (probably bc of the personnel section leaving it haunted).
Sources...?
editBackground and writing
editFN 2: Not really sure how you gotShe conceived the album as a collection of songs about the things she had wanted to but was unable to do with the people she had met in real life
from FN 2 (maybe bc of heavy paraphrasing, so I would like a bit of quotation).
Background and writing clears. Good job! Also delved into the Music and lyrics section and so far, so good. Keep up the good work, I will come back with MORE comments.
Music and lyrics
editFN 23: No mention of Haunted.FN 24: Is The Morning Call reliable?- Can you quote FN 17 (The Words and Music of Taylor Swift)?
- FN 29: Is
Yahoo! MusicOur Country reliable?- Yahoo! Music is actually just where the article was uploaded and they did not publish it themselves, which I changed now in the prose. It was uploaded by Our Country, Chris Willman's country blog. I don't see a problem on the reliability of the blog since Willman is a very experienced critic and now a chief music critic at Variety.

- Can you quote FN 33?
Live performances
edit- FN 43: Is NJ.com reliable?
- The article's writer, Tris McCall, is an experienced writer who has been hailed by The New York Times as "the plugged-in, Internet-era muse of Jersey City". Gained (talk) 09:32, 4 June 2024 (UTC)
Copyvios
edit- Checked with Earwig's. Copyvios unlikely (10.7%)
Other concerns
edit- I don't really think that the quotations in
her "great" songwriting skill
are necessary, best to remove them, maybe paraphrase it a bit?- Paraphrased
Overalls
editI have thrown in all my comments. Please address them, and I shall pass the article.
