GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

   "F Major" -> "F major"  Done

   "She also portrays an extreme motorcycle girl in a commercial who drinks a soft drink called "Lies" that affords its drinker the opportunity to "Be somebody."[14]" - what does "extreme" means? Is this POV?  Done

   "In another Japanese commercial she is playing " - not sure why you switched to simple present  Done

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   References are ok, but could you replace the Amazon refs with another, more reliable?

    Not done Amazon is reliable.

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

   see above about "extreme"

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

• Dabsolver check: ok
• Checklinks check: ok
• Reflinks check: ok
• Fixed dashes
• All in all a very nice article
  • Hold and I will pass if you fix the issues.

Everything  Done. My love is love (talk) 16:49, 6 December 2011 (UTC)

Ok, I will pass! Very nice article! :)

Not Dedicated to Britney

Sadly Britney Spears fans repeat fake news about her and they have reported on Breatheheavy.com that this song was dedicated to Britney.. As this article clearly states, Amy Lee was talking about fake celebrity. She did NOT dedicate this song to Britney which would have been the opposite of her intention to encourage young girls not to hold Britney and her type up as role models. In fact as this video was filmed years before Britney's break down, one might wonder if Britney saw the video and was inspired to wear a pink wig and cut her hair just like the character in the video, not because she was crazy, but because she was choosing to act out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:14B:4401:D5C0:4D76:F34B:EF17:3587 (talk) 02:23, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

Statement in lede not backed by article

"Critical reception towards "Everybody's Fool" were mixed to positive with critics praising the nu metal sound of the song." Curious to know more, I went to the Reception section which states "Johnny Loftus of Allmusic classified 'Everybody's Fool' as a nu metal song". This acknowledges a critic identified it as nu metal, but includes no praise for it. Second, what's "mixed" about the reviews? Who said anything bad about the song, and what did they say was bad about the song? Currently the Reception section has critics talking about the theme of the song, one predicts it would be a chart-topping hit (which says little about its quality- it's only a prediction of popularity), one calls it "cold, sad and angry" (could be positive or negative), one calling the singing "disembodied" (positive or negative?).
