Review: August 3, 2013. (Reviewed version).

Music video section is terrible and should be re-written as a paragraph, not a bulleted list. 74.66.26.225 (talk) 18:49, 18 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Relevance[edit]

"At one point in the video, a picture of Elvis Presley is seen hanging on the wall."

Why is this relevant?

The #27 thing is kind of interesting but needs a reference. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.153.29.23 (talk) 02:34, 7 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What does mean the word "weiner"? I think that, there should be "wiener" - some kind of sausage/hot-dog/frankfurter (http://www.wordnet-online.com/wiener.shtml) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.177.230.120 (talk) 11:35, 23 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox

How about linking Al Yankovic in the Writer parameter and unlinking him in the Producer one?

Lead

"Headline News" charted at number 4 --> "Headline News" charted at number four

Release

The single charted and peaked at number 4 --> I think it is better: "The song charted and peaked at number four"
which corresponds to a position of 104 on the Billboard Hot 100. --> Italicize Billboard
"Headline News" received mostly positive reviews from critics --> Rewrite to ""Headline News" received mostly positive reviews from music critics"
Remove "although at least one critic noted that the source material would soon become dated", this review is cited later
Not all reviews, however, were so glowing --> "Not all reviews, however, were positive"
Yankovic first started performing "Headline News" in August of 1994 --> Yankovic first started performing "Headline News" in August 1994
Italicize Larry King Live

Status

On hold.

Thank you for the review! How does it look now?--Gen. Quon (Talk) 23:08, 2 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
