Infobox and lead

• Infobox looks good!
• Remove close wikilink on riff per MOS:LINKSTYLE
• Pipe music critics to Music journalism
• "otherwise found it" → "otherwise found the song"
• "Commercially "False God" peaked at number 56" → "Commercially, the song peaked at number 59"
• List the full name of the ARIA Singles Chart
• Mention that the certification was in Australia
• "by its musical director" → "by the show's musical director" and mention the years of this performance and her tour
• Mention Ryan Hurd's cover version
  • I also included James Bay if that's okay. Gained (talk) 16:15, 16 April 2024 (UTC)

Background and release

• The "love letter to love itself" quote is not mentioned by the source
• "celebrity at the time" is not needed in the sentence since we know the media would be focused on her status and at the time is implied
• Wouldn't the chart positions go better in a new para of reception, retitling to simply this word?
  • Personally, I think they fit better with "Background and release" and I believe it's too short to a new paragraph for it on "Critical reception". I also think that section is very tightly focused so adding info about chart performance would kinda make it a bit unfocused and forced. Gained (talk) 16:52, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
• The correct Australia position is number 59, not 56

Production and music

• Audio sample looks good!
• "in New York City, and" → "in New York City (NYC), and" per later instances appearing in the article
• Pipe Michael Riddleberger to Bleachers (band)
• "Sterling Sound in New York City." → "Sterling Sound in NYC."
• Either remove the pipe on Evan Smith or send to Bleachers (band), not sure since they are already linked
• "considered it "faux-R&B"." → "considered the song "faux-R&B"."
• Re-invoke the Lipshutz ref for the slow jam sentence
• Maybe only use the dash as 1980s R&B-influenced?
• lovers' rock → lovers rock with the wikilink

Lyrical content and analysis

• First para looks good!
• "using heaven imagery:" → "using heavenly imagery:"
• "The couple encounters problems" → "The couple encounters challenges"
• "to make amends but" → "to make amends, but"
• "Religious imagery continue" → "Religious imagery continues"
• "my hips"[31] and ultimately accepts" → "my hips",[31] ultimately accepting"
• "the mentions of New York City and" → "the mentions of NYC and"
• Maybe it would be suitable to mention "Cruel Summer" is from this album and the other two tracks are from 1989?

Critical reception

• "called it a" → "called the song a"
• Refinery29 should not be italicised
• "to be confident that evoked" → "to have confidence that evoked" or something similar to be clear
• "Lipshutz ranked it third among" → "Lipshutz ranked the song third among"
• "Some critics regarded" → "A few critics regarded"
• "and the New-York references ineffective but" → "and the NYC references ineffective, but"
• "somewhat experimental production but" → "somewhat experimental production, but"

Live performances and covers

• Img looks good!
• The flat shoes are not sourced
• "and "vibey" and highlighting" → "and "vibey", and highlighting"
• "of the 45th Saturday Night Live season;" → "of the 45th SNL season;"
• The one on guitar and one on piano throughout the tour is not sourced as far as I can see
• "on the 53 U.S. dates,"
  • Sorry what? Gained (talk) 16:02, 16 April 2024 (UTC)
• "The next year, she performed" → "In 2024, she performed"
• Mention that James Bay sang the chorus as falsetto
