GA Review

Hello, contributors. I will be reviewing this article for GA status, and I'll have the checklist up with my decision no later than tomorrow if the review doesn't need to be put on hold. Timmeh! 19:10, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

OK, I look forward to all comments, and look forward to addressing any concerns that you may have. Thank you very much for reviewing the article! :) CarpetCrawler^{message me} 19:24, 10 April 2009 (UTC)

Checklist and analysis

GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   There were some minor grammatical errors, but I did fix them.

Thank you. :) CarpetCrawler^{message me} 02:02, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

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

   The references are good.

2. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

3. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

   There doesn't seem to be any definitive negative review mentioned in the release and reaction section. I'm putting the review on hold until a negative viewpoint toward the song is added here to make it more neutral.

I tried to go and find one, and I think I may have found a good enough one. Does it fit? Honestly, that was actually quite hard to find, since it's an album from 1973, so most reviews of the album that are reliable sources are going to be hard to find... especially from that timeframe. CarpetCrawler^{message me} 02:02, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Yes, it looks like it fits reasonably well. That was my main concern about the article. Thanks for finding that review. Timmeh! 03:07, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

1. It is stable.

   No edit wars etc.:

2. 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):

   I know images for a song such as this would be hard to find, but maybe it would be possible for you to find and add one or two pictures of live performances of the song, just so there's some kind of image here.

Would Joel's picture from his main article work? CarpetCrawler^{message me} 02:02, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Probably not. However, I don't think there are very many images that would be appropriate for a song article. The lack of images is not such a big problem, and it can do without any for now. Timmeh! 03:07, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

1. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   After seeing improvements to the article that address my concerns, I am passing this article for GA status. Congratulations, CarpetCrawler and anyone else who contributed to the article. Good luck on this article in the future and on any future endeavors. Timmeh! 03:07, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

Wonderful, thanks for the review! :) CarpetCrawler^{message me} 05:55, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
