Hello, I am Carbrera, and I'll be reviewing this article for possible good article submission.
Full review coming very soon. Carbrera (talk) 04:29, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
Infobox edit
- Shouldn't the title be "Lo Mejor de...Selena"?
- Album cover image needs an alt
Lead edit
Paragraph 1 edit
- Separate the lead and second sentence into "Lo Mejor de...Selena is a double disc compilation album by American singer Selena. It was released posthumously in the United States on March 31, 2015 by EMI Latin and Universal Music Latin Entertainment."
- I would clarify what chart the seven singles were on where they were number one
Paragraph 2 edit
- I think the tense of the second to last sentence should be the same as the rest of the article; perhaps you could say "The album has charted on the Top..." instead?
- The final sentence isn't necessary because it doesn't really describe the article as a whole
Background edit
- Move 'In March 1995' to the front of the sentence so it reads "In March 1995, American Tejano singer..."
- Delete 'simultaneously' and instead add 'also' so it reads 'It was also made available for digital download and released as a double disc.'
Songs edit
Paragraph 1 edit
- Again clarify what chart her singles were number one on
- Find a source stating that "Como la Flor" is Selena's signature song
- The fourth sentence contains a total of six references; that's quite a lot; I think you can make the same point with less citations
- The acclaim needs to have more than one reference as one source does not explicitly state it was received well, the popular culture reference needs to be proven by multiple sources since not one explicitly state there was an error on their chart reference, and Billboard's reference would need to verify that popular culture has been wrong and in fact the single only peaked at number six. jona(talk) 00:32, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
Paragraph 2 edit
- This paragraph is quite good; I have nothing to add to this section
Critical reception edit
- This section doesn't mention any critic reviews or critical opinions; this section should be renamed "Commercial reception" or "Commercial performance"
- Since this section no longer has a critical reception section, it definitely needs one; this is major for a GA album
- Replace "Over at the" to "On the"
- Replace "Seven songs of the singer" to "Seven of her songs"
- Replace "has been" to "was"
Track listing edit
- Add total time to the track listing for disc one
- Shouldn't Selena be credited as 'Quintanilla' on the tracks instead of 'Selena'?
- Add total time to the track listing for disc two as well
Charts edit
Weekly charts edit
- Italicize 'Billboard' in 'US Billboard Top Latin Albums'; change to 'US Top Latin Albums (Billboard)'
Year-end charts edit
- Nothing to add here :)
References edit
- [1] - Provide a link to the Houston Chronicle
- [3] - Provide a link to Newsday
- [9] - Provide a link to Billboard
- [12] - Un-italicize AllMusic and remove the link
- [20] - Remove the link to AllMusic
- [22] - Remove the link to AllMusic; needs an access date and an author (depends on how the source is used)
- I used the Template:Allmusic which does not allow me alter anything since it was only to source the writing credits and no review was posted. jona(talk) 00:32, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
- [24] - Remove the link to AllMusic
- [26] - Remove the link to Billboard
- [27] - Remove the link to AllMusic
- [28] - Remove the '.com' in 'Billboard.com'
- [34] - Provide a link to Twitter
- [36] - Remove the '.com' in 'Billboard.com'
- [37] - Remove the '.com' in 'Billboard.com'
- [38] - Remove the '.com' in 'Billboard.com'
- [39] - Remove the '.com' in 'Billboard.com'

End of GA Review: edit
A very good article, but it definitely needs some work before passing. A critical reception section is necessary before passing. I'm allowing the nominator to make changes before passing. Thank you. Carbrera (talk) 23:35, 22 March 2016 (UTC)
- @AJona1992: Very, very good! Just one thing away from passing, can you change "has been" to "was" under the commercial section? Then I will gladly pass it! :) Carbrera (talk) 01:35, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
