Mine! Per my talk page, I may be a little slow in getting through this, but I will get through it! Tkbrett (✉) 13:00, 26 August 2021 (UTC)

Recording and composition

• Bowie also apparently considered making a Pin Ups sequel ...: Ditch "also apparently" (MOS:DOUBT). If the source expresses doubt, then make sure to attribute who is doing the doubting.

• That was something I missed from before expansion, my bad. Removed apparently.

• When was the album recorded? In the second paragraph it says "from July to August 1973", but the last sentence of the third paragraph says "Recording was completed on 31 July".

• There's always discrepancies I find. Removed 31 July so we'll keep it July to August, as that seems much more realistic. – zmbro _(talk) 16:06, 11 September 2021 (UTC)

Release

• The album had advance copies of 150,000, which was 50,000 more than its predecessor.: "its predecessor" is referring to Aladdin Sane, correct?

• Yep specified.

Final comments and verdict

• copyvio score of 60.5% due to a blog poster copying text directly from the Wiki page. The blog post is from 29 December 2020 and includes text apparently copied from the page as it looked on 10 December 2020. No concerns here.

• Smh

• Images are PD or have an appropriate fair use justification.
•  On hold: zmbro, another very well written article that managed to tell an interesting story about an album I always passed by. Great stuff. Rather than make you jump through the hoops I made edits as I read through it, so make sure those all look good. Tkbrett (✉) 14:40, 11 September 2021 (UTC)
