I should be able to comment in a few days. Please keep one thing in mind that this is my first review and I might make mistakes. Before full review, on a quick-glance, I can see that there are many issues with references, which I'm going to list soon. -- Frankie _talk 22:12, 21 July 2015 (UTC)

Lead

• "also censored as" => "censored as".
  • Done. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:25, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• Alphabetize the names of writers in the infobox. I would understand that Gaga, being the singer of the song, should come first, but that's not the case in producer neither should be in writer.
  • I believe this is the order in which the writers/producers are credited in the album's liner notes. Chase (talk | contributions) 15:53, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
    • Yes, I think it is best to keep them as they appear in the liner notes. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:25, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Images

• Images need personality rights warnings at the Commons.
  • I don't know what this means... ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:25, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
    • It means this. Per 6a. criterion. -- Frankie _talk 16:30, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
      • Done. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:47, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• DJ Snake.jpg needs an alt text. Caption – William Grigahcine is more popularly known by the name of DJ Snake.
  • I don't think William Grigahcine is more popularly known by the name of DJ Snake. is acceptable alt text. That would be more suited for a caption. "DJ Snake" or even "refer to caption" would suffice as alt text. Chase (talk | contributions) 15:53, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
    • I, too, was suggesting it for caption, not for alt text, but I guess it is written in a confusing way. -- Frankie _talk 16:07, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
      • Done. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:25, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• Janet jackson.png – ALT needed.
  • Done. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:25, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• Lady Gaga at Roseland Ballroom 7.jpg – ditto.
  • Done. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:25, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

References

• Author needed for ref 2.
  • Done. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:31, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• There might be substitutes available for Metro (British newspaper).
  • I don't see a need for a substitute. (?) ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:31, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• Daily Mirror is not a reliable source.
  • But can a paper like this just publish a direct quote from the artist if it is not true? The quote was also published by ContactMusic.com, The Arizona Republic, etc. I realize the source may not be preferred, but it is only being used to cite a direct quotation. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:31, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• Is NewNowNext reliable?
  • The NewNowNext Awards are from the TV network Logo, which is owned by Viacom (Nickelodeon, MTV, etc.). It's reliable. Chase (talk | contributions) 15:53, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
    • Thank you. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:31, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• What makes RyanSeacrest.com a high quality source?
  • Seacrest is a well-known entertainment news anchor; I don't see why his website would not be considered reliable. Chase (talk | contributions) 15:53, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
    • Agreed. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:31, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• The Atlantic needs to be linked in ref. 11.
  • Done. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:39, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• Digital Spy shouldn't be in italics in ref 12.
  • Done. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:39, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• Do you think it's safe to use a reference from Idolator?
  • Sure, why not? It is published by SpinMedia, which also published Spin and Vibe. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:39, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• MTV News linked twice in ref 5 and 15.
  • Done. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:39, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
• I am not sure if The Huffington Post is eligible for GA, I was asked in an FLC to remove it.
  • The Huffington Post is generally considered a reliable source. Chase (talk | contributions) 15:53, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
    • No it isn't [1] [2] [3]. -- Frankie _talk 15:59, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
      • That first site you provided itself does not look reliable. You may wish to look at this thread from RSN. Chase (talk | contributions) 16:33, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
      • (edit conflict) I use HuffPost articles all the time without problem. Is there a specific Wikipedia policy/guideline which says HuffPost cannot be used? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:40, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
      • This may not make a difference, but keep in mind this source is just used to describe a live performance and not to verify a controversial fact. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 18:31, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
        • Hmm, surely live performance isn't something they would lie about, so I think it's safe to keep that source. -- Frankie _talk 18:54, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

• The link for ref 27 is broken.
  • Hmm, I am not sure what to do about this. It worked at some point. Marked with the "dead link" template until I can think of another solution. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:41, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
    • You can use this. -- Frankie _talk 16:45, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
      • Wonderful, thank you! Done ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:48, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

   I hereby put it on hold for 7 days. I wouldn't mind giving more time if needed. -- Frankie _talk 15:31, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

   I've left some outside comments in response to your suggestions. I have not worked extensively on this article and am not the nominator. Chase (talk | contributions) 15:53, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Thank you, both, for reviewing the article and participating in this nomination. Much appreciated, and I look forward to resolving all issues. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:42, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Everything seems to be done, but whenever I have used Huffpost, it has been objected by someone. I have opened a discussion here and once this query is resolved I should have no problem passing this. -- Frankie _talk 16:51, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Sounds good. Thanks again for your time and assistance. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 16:54, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

Update: I also added links to the fairly recently-created article for DJ White Shadow. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 17:11, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

All resolved. I shall finish the process tomorrow if it's okay. -- Frankie _talk 19:28, 25 July 2015 (UTC)

I am passing this article, if anyone is not satisfied with the review, they can take it to WP:GAR. Cheers. -- Frankie _talk 20:17, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
