We had discussed the prospect of me potentially reviewing one of your articles this winter in the past; I will now do it! --K. Peake 17:29, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- Thank you! ---Another Believer (Talk) 18:33, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
Infobox and lead
edit- Recording date is not sourced anywhere in the body
- I don't even remember adding 2016 to the infobox. I have no idea when the album was recorded so Removed ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:50, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- Target holiday to Holiday music
- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:57, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- "by various artists, released by" → "by various artists. It was released by" since the opening para is currently too short at only two sentences
- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:57, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- "The 30-track album is a sequel" → "Consisting of 30 tracks, the album is a sequel"
- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:57, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- Add release year of Christmas Queens in brackets
- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:57, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- "contestants as well as" → "contestants alongside"
- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:57, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- "for "Working Holiday" featuring" → "for "Working Holiday", which features"
- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:57, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- "and Manila Luzon, a web series called" → "and Manila Luzon. A web series was released for it, titled"
- But doing this makes the second sentence grammatically incorrect. See below comment. ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:04, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- That is reasonable, but still change "called" to "titled" in the above manner though. --K. Peake 09:25, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:27, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
- "and a tour with December shows" → "and a tour by various artists with December 2016 shows"
- I implemented your preferred wording here but kept a single sentence instead of splitting into 2, in order to keep the text grammatically correct. Does this work for you? ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:57, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- Why are the countries not ordered alphabetically?
- They are ordered chronologically. ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:57, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- You should add a sentence after this one about the album's critical reception, writing: "Christmas Queens 2 received..."
- I just added "received a mixed critical reception" ahead and the chart placement claim because there aren't really overarching opinions, I would say. Critics more or less said things they liked and didn't like about individual performers, more than provide commentary on the album as a whole. Would you agree? ---Another Believer (Talk) 22:04, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- Yes, it is fine to not give an overview when it is extremely hard to. --K. Peake 17:00, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
- "Christmas Queens 2 reached a peak position of number two" → "It peaked at number two"
- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:57, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
- You still need to change to "peaked at" to be less wordy. --K. Peake 09:25, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:27, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:06, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

- I think the parenthetical is better here, otherwise the sentences becomes a bit of a run-on and hard to follow. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:06, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
- "smokes pot") as well as" → "smokes pot" as well as"

Track listing
edit- Use hlist to separate artists when there are multiple ones for a song, rather than commas
- Why? Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Album_article_style_advice#Track_listing doesn't suggest this... ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:40, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
- Oh, my bad; I was just used to seeing things the way I suggested but you needn't change the track listing then. --K. Peake 17:00, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
Charts
edit- See MOS:TABLECAPTION
- I'm not sure what's needed here. I'm looking at the GAs on your profile page and I'm not seeing a difference. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:14, 17 December 2020 (UTC)

- The ref should be next to the chart's name rather than having its own column
- Done ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:38, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
References
edit- Copyvio score is too high at 58,6%; fix quoting from the refs to reduce this
- Hmmm, the only extended quotes are the two in the "Reception" section, which I'm reluctant to trim because they are the best commentary about the album as a whole as opposed to individual performances. Is trimming required if the quotes are appropriately attributed, given proper weight, and otherwise integrated nicely within the article overall? ---Another Believer (Talk) 15:58, 17 December 2020 (UTC)
