The current state of the article is not up to GA standards, specifically the referencing. There are currently two cleanup tags on the page, and some of the references are unreliable (some are references to Wikipedia and YouTube). I feel like this should no longer be a GA unless it receives a decent amount of work to bring it up to standards. What do you think? Anarchyte (work | talk) 13:02, 17 April 2017 (UTC)Reply

I've taken care of the unplugged section's referencing (took out the actual auditorium, since it wasn't covered by the source), and removed the award sentence since it duplicated the same information from Critical reception. That leaves the Cover versions section, which has the YouTube references (I didn't see any to Wikipedia articles) and also some bare URLs (though those are easily fixed by running one of the tools that fleshes them out). If you really think the unreferenced entries on the list are enough of a problem that the article should be delisted, then the simple solution is to remove all unsourced or inadequately sourced cover versions (or at least comment them out). The question becomes then whether there are any other ways in which the article fails to meet the GA criteria, and for that, you'd need to basically do a complete GA review here—and as you've opened this as an individual reassessment, that's the job you signed up for.

@BlueMoonset: Okay, I've cleaned up everything else. Should be right now. Cheers for the help. Anarchyte (work | talk) 01:08, 20 April 2017 (UTC)Reply
