Infobox and lead edit

  • Shouldn't Eurovision 2010: Epilogi tis kypriakis symmetochis be italicised in the infobox like it is elsewhere?
  • "in the selection of Jon Lilygreen and" → "in the selection of Lilygreen and"
  • Change on February 7 2010 to merely in February 2010 since the full date is not notable here for a selection contest
  • "Cyprus placed tenth" → "Cyprus placed 10th" per MOS:NUM
  • "and placed twenty-first out" → "and placed 21st out"

Background edit

  • "twenty-seven times since" → "27 times since" per MOS:NUM
  • "which it achieved three times:" → "achieving this three times:"
  • Remove commas around Cyprus Broadcasting Corporation (CyBC)
  • "at the 2010 Eurovision Song Contest" → "at the Eurovision Song Contest 2010" with the wikilink
  • Not all of the various methods are sourced
  • Remove "compete at Eurovision" from the end of the sentence because this is implied

Before Eurovision edit

Eurovision 2010: Epilogi tis kypriakis symmetochis edit

  • None of the info appears to be sourced by [4], unless there is an archive mentioning this?
  • Remove comma after received submissions
  • The 1996, 2002 and 2005 participations are not sourced, nor is Mike Connaris' involvement
  • "broadcast on RIK 1, RIK Sat as well as in Greece on ET1 and online" → "broadcast on RIK 1, RIK Sat and in Greece on ERT1 as well as online" but the website part is not sourced
  • "The song received the" → "The entry received the"
  • Remove overly obvious wikilink on Wales, though this fact itself is a nice addition!

Promotion edit

  • "Jon Lilygreen and the Islanders made" → "Lilygreen and the Islanders made"
  • "On 12 March, Jon Lilygreen and" → "On 12 March 2010, Lilygreen and" per this being a new sub-section
  • Remove overly obvious wikilink on Netherlands
  • Pipe Marga Bult to Marcha

At Eurovision edit

  • Wikilink Jon Lilygreen on the img text
  • Remove wikilink on RIK 1, also not all of those broadcasters are sourced

Performances edit

  • "Jon Lilygreen during a rehearsal" → "Lilygreen during a rehearsal" on the img text
  • "Jon Lilygreen and the Islanders took part in technical rehearsals on 19 and 23 May," → "Lilygreen and the Islanders took part in technical rehearsals on 19 and 23 May 2010,"
  • "The Cypriot performance featured Jon Lilygreen" → "The Cypriot performance featured Lilygreen"
  • "It was later revealed that Cyprus placed tenth" → "The country placed 10th" per MOS:NUM, also this is from the same source as the previous sentence
  • "the ten qualifying countries." → "the 10 qualifying countries."
  • "Jon Lilygreen and the Islanders once again" → "Lilygreen and the Islanders once again"
  • "on 28 and 29 May before" → "on 28 and 29 May 2010 before"
  • "of their semi-final performance" → "of their semi-final position"
  • "Cyprus finished in twenty-first place" → "Cyprus finished in 21st place"

Voting edit

  • "the country they represent." → "the country each represented."
  • "Cyprus scored 57 points." → "the nation scored 57 points."
  • "who announced the Cypriot votes" → "who announced their votes"
  • 37 is the ref that backs up the voting info, so should be invoked after that as well as the last sentence of the para
  • "and awarded by Cyprus in" → "and awarded by the nation in"
Points awarded to Cyprus edit
  • Good
Points awarded by Cyprus edit
  • Good

References edit

  • Copyvio score looks fantastic at 11.5%!!!

Final comments and verdict edit

  •   On hold until all of the issues are fixed; nice work on this though! --K. Peake 16:16, 18 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
    @Kyle Peake: Thanks for another detailed review! I've made the changes you've requested, though could you please clarify this comment: "of their semi-final performance" → "of their semi-final position"? Grk1011 (talk) 14:25, 20 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
    Grk1011 When I click on the source, the only thing identical about the two separate occasions is the position they performed from. --K. Peake 15:01, 20 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
    @Kyle Peake: I didn't see that in the ref either, so I just reworded it. Let me know if any other issues remain! Grk1011 (talk) 18:58, 20 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
     Pass now, nice job on this! --K. Peake 07:29, 21 June 2022 (UTC)Reply
