   Pass or Fail:

• Lead

Swift wrote had previously written the song and offered it to producers for the film's soundtrack -> This sounds very awkward.

Done.

"Today Was a Fairytale" is used 5 times.

I do not think it is not repeated too often. "The song" is used three times and "it" was used once. I still switched one "Today Was a Fairytale" to "it". -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 05:38, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

• Composition

Weiner of Slate magazine -> Since it is an online magazine, it shouldn't be in italics.

Done.

• Critical reception

Like the lead, "TWAFT" is used several times.

Think I took care of it. -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 05:38, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

• Chart performance

became Swift's first number-one on the Canadian Hot 100, a peak it maintained for one week -> It is a fact, but the source does not state it.

The source says it peaked at number one for the week ending ____. That suffices. -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 05:38, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

Not that part, the part that says that it is her first #1 single on the Canadian Hot 100. Tbhotch^{Talk C.} 05:53, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

Added source. -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 19:13, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

debuted at number thirty-seven and peaked at number twenty-nine. -> comma (seven, and peaked)

Done.

forty-one in Ireland[19] -> forty-one in Ireland,[19]

Done.

This is really not too much work to do, practically are tips. On hold one week until 14 July 2010 (UTC) for the bolded comments. Tbhotch^{Talk C.} 02:09, 8 July 2010 (UTC)
