Hello, I am Carbrera, and I'll be reviewing this article for possible good article submission.

Full review coming very soon. Carbrera (talk) 23:48, 01 April 2016 (UTC)

• @Carbrera: Thank you very much! This will be an interesting review as I literally made this page so hopefully I did it all correctly lol. Aoba47 (talk) 00:29, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

Infobox

• Remove the quotation marks around "Day Dreaming" in the singles box; they are pre-included without having to manually add them

 Done

Lead

Paragraph 1

• Include the year after Ask a Woman Who Knows.

 Done

Paragraph 2

• "Upon its release" → "After its release'

 Done

Paragraph 3

• I would move this paragraph to the one above, creating a slightly larger one :)

 Done

Background and recording

Paragraph 1

• Looks really good!

• Thank you!

Paragraph 2

• Hmmm. I particularly don't like album covers used in sections; is there a different image that could be used in place of this previous album cover? If not, it'll just have to do.

• I will look for a different image. I agree with your point.  Working Aoba47 (talk) 06:02, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

•  Done (The image is pretty blurry, but it is hard to find an image that is both high quality/appropriate and that will not be taken down immediately.)

• The period should come before the quotation marks in the last sentence, right?

• I was told that the punctuation comes after the quotation marks unless citing a full sentence. I thought it was odd too as it is not like that for normal writing, but I was directed to this during the c/e. Aoba47 (talk) 06:02, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

Paragraph 3

• Link 'Dallas Austin'

 Done

• Otherwise, good work

• Thank you!

Paragraph 4

• "yet up-to-date". Taylor described..." → "yet up-to-date"; Taylor described..."

 Done

• Nothing else to mention

• Thank you!

Composition

• Highly impressed with this section; zero comments whatsoever!

• Thank you! It took a lot of work for this section!

Promotion

• Another comment; is there a different image of maybe Cole singing live or something? The music video pic is alright, but an image of Cole performing one of the album's songs would be even better!

• I will look around for a different image. Thank for you for the suggestion!  Working Aoba47 (talk) 06:02, 2 April 2016 (UTC)

• Since Cole did not promote the album a lot, there are unfortunately only a handful of times that I could find a video of her performing the songs live and I am not certain if taking screenshots of any of those would help the article as they are very pixelated/blurry.

Reception

Critical response

• Change the first sentence to "Leavin' received positive reviews from music critics."

 Done

Track listing

• Are the producers available for the tracks? You could try discogs.com perhaps?

• Thank you for bringing my attention to this. Will add this.  Working

•  Done

• @Aoba47: Could you add who produced the only non-Austin produced track in the short statement above the track listing?

Will look for it now.  Working

@Carbrera:  Done

• Shouldn't the No. for the bonus track be #13.?

 Done

Credits

• This may be a little putzy, but shouldn't the additional positions/instruments after the first one be all lowercased? Like for Dallas Austin for example: "Composer, drums, executive producer, horn arrangements, percussion, performer, producer, rhythm arrangements, vocal arrangement" Do you see what I mean?

 Done Sorry for the mistake here ><

Charts

• Remove 'Weekly charts' since it didn't end up on a 'year-end chart'

 Done

Release history

• The dates need to be in chronological order; 2010 comes before 2006 in this example

 Done Wow, that was a silly mistake lol

References

• [36] - Remove the link to 'Billboard'  Done
• [38] - Remove the link to 'Billboard'  Done
• [39] - Remove the link to 'Billboard'  Done
