Lead
  • I don't know if you have to necessarily link "Follow Your Instinct" to the other Wikipedia, but if it's not an issue with you I wouldn't worry about it
  • "and Romanian recording artist Alexandra Stan" --> "featuring Romanian recording artist Alexandra Stan"
  • "portrays" --> perhaps "is" instead?
  • "generally acclaimed" --> Sounds a bit too positive; there was a fairly mixed review mentioned below–change to "well received"?
  • "Germanic territories" --> Shouldn't it be "European countries" ?
  • "near a pool or the sea shore" --> "near a body of water"
  • "Follow Your Instinct also made various appearances for media and television." --> In regards to what?
Background and composition
  • The first sentence technically shouldn't be in quotation marks since the original text is in a different language; I also don't understand what this sentence is trying to get across
  • "Recording took place before Stan's alleged June 2013 physical altercation with her then-manager, Marcel Prodan, over compensation, which caused controversy in her native country.[2][3]" --> This seems pretty trivial to the article's importance
Saved some of the information though, because it's a little bit important due to the recording stuff. Cartoon network freak (talk) 11:35, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Viper and Lionezz have appearances throughout track." --> What types of appearances?
Not stated in the source, sorry. Cartoon network freak (talk) 11:35, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Reception
  • "delivered" --> Remove
  • "German magazine Klatsch-Tratsch described the recording to include "anthemic melodies, crisp beats and an extra portion 'eye candy'", while labelling Stan a "pop princess".[9]" --> I feel like this would be better fit in the above section instead
  • "Commercially, "Baby, It's OK" was moderately successful in Germanic territories." --> Same thing as mentioned in the lead above
  • "top one hundred" --> "top hundred"
  • "managed to open" --> Doesn't sound right
  • "exciting" --> "exiting"
Promotion
  • "confessed" --> "expressed" sounds better in my opinion
  • "bikini" --> "bikinis"
  • "Jonathan Currin generally praised the visual" --> His review seems fairly mixed to me; he starts off negatively but then becomes more positive as the review progresses
  • "Pure Charts" redirects to "PureMédias"
  • Bravo needs to be italicized
ON HOLD to allow for necessary changes to be made. Good luck. Carbrera (talk) 01:39, 21 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
