Lead

• Add the year the album was released in parenthesis after She Wolf, in the first sentence.

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• "What Is Done Is Done" should be in quotes.

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• Jorge Drexler should be added to the infobox with a side note (Spanish-language version)

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• "Lyrically, it details a guilt over an involvement in a man's extramarital affair." — Huh? "a guilt"? That sound weird.

I changed it, how is it now? --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• "and at numbers six and 11 on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs and Tropical Songs component charts" — add a comma after charts.

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• Delink Spain and Italy per WP:OVERLINK

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• "it was certified gold by Productores de Música de España for shipments of 10,000 copies." — Add "the" after "by" and before "Productores". Also, does the Productores de Música de España certify for shipments of exactly 10,000 copies or over 10,000 copies? This needs to be clarified.

Another user had added this info and when I checked out the ref I found out it was actually for 20000 copies sold! But I have no info whether it sold more than that or less. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

That's not what I meant. Does a gold certification by the Productores de Música de España certify sales of 20,000 or an excess of 20,000??

That's what! The ref doesn't specify excess or exact. Just a " ' ", which the legend says means 20.000 unidades vendidas. Here is the ref- http://promusicae.org/files/listastonos/historial/TOP%2050%20CANCIONES%2010_13.pdf

Background and composition

• The sound sample is too long. See WP:SAMPLE. I believe for a song with the length of three minutes should have a sample 18 seconds long.

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• Remove (Williams) from "he (Williams) comes up with ideas, and he executes them immediately. It's really cool, because I'm a little bit slower, and he's the man with the big strokes, and he really comes with great ideas. It was a great synergy". You already state "About her collaboration with Williams, Shakira commented,".

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• Delink Spanish per WP:OVERLINK.

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• Why is it mentioned in the lead that it is a dance song but not here?

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• You contradict yourself by stating "A remix of the English version of the song, featuring additional vocals from Kid Cudi, was later released on December 11, 2009." after stating that "The single was not officially released in the US market,". It had to been released in the US to reached number six on a major chart.

There are plenty of refs to support this. I have no idea how it charted there. Maybe a single doesn't have to be released in America to chart on these charts. For example, all 4 singles released from Kylie Minogue's Aphrodite album topped the Billboard Dance Club Play and if I'm not wrong none of them were released in America. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

You're not answering the problem. If it was later released as a remix in the US, then you need to remove "The single was not officialy released in the US market".

The article never mentioned that the remix was released in the US.... --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 05:47, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Then you need to specify where it was release because it's pretty confusing. — DivaKnockouts 12:43, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Critical reception

• "and also as good choice for creating a Spanish version." — There's a missing word here.

"a" before "good choice"?

Yeah :)

Why you play puzzles? :P :P XD  Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 05:47, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Commercial performance

• "Internationally, "Did It Again" received moderate success." — You can't receive moderate success, but you can achieve it.

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• Delink all these countries per WP:OVERLINK

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

• "In Germany, the song peaked at number 34 on the Media Control Charts and remained on the position for one week." — It remained at the position for one week, not on the position.

And to think your English was not "the well"... haha kidding....  Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

I've been learning .-.

• " In Ireland, the song peaked at number 17 on the Irish Singles Chart and stayed on the chart for three weeks.[29] In Italy, the song entered and peaked at number 15" — Add a comma after 15.

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Music video

• Looks good here.

Live performances

• "Shakira performed the song on the US version of Dancing with the Stars on October 13[47]," — Move the comma to before the reference. Punctuation always comes before references.

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Charts

• Only one problem: In the Certifications section, it should be consistent with the Chart performance table and (Spanish version:"Lo Hecho Está Hecho") should be used instead of ("Lo hecho está hecho"). — DivaKnockouts 19:14, 26 June 2013 (UTC)

You mean I should add the certification for all countries in the Charts table? As for the Spanish version addition  Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 02:39, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

No, you did what I wanted you too. The way I worded it makes sound like two different things. But if there is a certification for another country, then yeah, add it. I'll leave the references section so that the GA review will actually have something to review ;) — DivaKnockouts 04:17, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

Lol I was extra careful with the refs this time. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 05:47, 27 June 2013 (UTC)

I want to add what Jose said above: You're missing some accolades and is there no year-end charts available? Erick (talk) 15:42, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

I checked on that list and "Did It Again" seems to not have been nominated for anything. And okay, I'll try looking for some year end charts. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 16:23, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

But the Spanish version did though. Erick (talk) 16:26, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

Oh! Yes you are right! --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 16:40, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

For the accolades-  Done ; As for the year end charts  Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 17:10, 28 June 2013 (UTC)

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 12:41, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

• This is an English language single, so Dexter doesn't need to be here.

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 12:41, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

• As it is a dance song with elements of electropop and samba, electropop and samba should be removed.

• is a song by recorded by → Spot the mistake

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 12:41, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

• Is Shakira credited in the booklet as a co-producer? As The Neptune's rarely allow co-production.

I don't have the booklet, but many sites state Shakira as the producer of the song too. Shakira wrote and co-produced all the tracks on the album. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 12:41, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

Okay.  — AARON • ^TALK

• Use a different word than "lauded"

• Should write 'chart' after the name of the chart

Background and composition

• from the album She Wolf → Comma after album

 Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 12:41, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

• contains strong elements → Remove 'strong', it's superfluous in this context

Critical reception

• received very → Remove 'very', sounds bias

• This section could simply be two paragraphs.

I made the section into three paras- Development, synopsis, and reception. Is that okay? Or shall I merge development and synopsis?--WonderBoy1998 (talk) 12:41, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

Yep  — AARON • ^TALK

Charts

• How come US Tropical isn't in the table if it peaked at 11?

It is there. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 12:41, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

Okay. The Latin Airplay bit threw me.  — AARON • ^TALK

• 2009 peaks should be in a separate table to 2010 peaks.

 Done They were all 2009 peaks, I don't know why there was 10 there... --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 12:41, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

References

• MTV, Digital Spy, Allmusic, BBC, UK Singles Chart, iTunes etc. should not be italics.

Ugh, I did this all in the beginning and some users used AWB and removed all the apostrophes. Well I'll do it again.

They should never be in italics, they aren't newspaper/printed applications. Whoever told you to make them italics was wrong.  — AARON • ^TALK

No I used the apostrophes to just cancel out the auto italicization of these entries. Anyways : Done --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 12:50, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

• It's Official Singles Chart, no 'The'
