I fixed up most of the things you addressed, but have only a couple of questions. "Reference 34" cites the album's official website for information about its release formats, so for that it should be reliable. Also, according to WP:External links, the standard for linking is to list them with a bullet, so why shouldn't the first one be needed? Dan56 (talk) 21:23, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

I did not see the official website at the bottom of the page in Reference 34. When talking about the first bullet point, I was referring to making it more specific than "Official website". Instead, try "We're New Here official website". - Rp0211 ^(talk2me) 22:36, 28 July 2011 (UTC)

I renamed the link "Official album website". Dan56 (talk) 00:52, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Since all of the issues have been addressed, I feel confident passing this article now. Congratulations and keep up the good work! - Rp0211 ^(talk2me) 03:15, 29 July 2011 (UTC)

Overall review

After thoroughly reviewing this article, I have decided to put the article on hold at this time. There are only a few minor issues listed above that are keeping the article from reaching GA status. Once these issues have been fixed, I will feel confident to put this article in good article status. I will give you the general seven days to fix the mistakes and/or debate the items you believe do not affect GA status.- Rp0211 ^(talk2me) 20:32, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
