Will be getting to this over the weekend! Azealia911 talk 07:05, 6 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Lead and infobox[edit]

  • Perhaps it would be useful to carry on the sentence of "category at the 2013 Grammy Awards." EG ", but lost out to".  Done
  • Cover art needs an alt.  Done
  • The 'A' in "Album version" and the 'R' in "Radio edit" don't need to be capitalized.  Done

Background and writing[edit]

  • "During a preview on French site" A preview of what?  Done

Music video[edit]

  • "who previously directed the music video for "Neutron Star Collision (Love Is Forever)"" Needs citation.  Done
  • "The two main characters are played by models Erin Wasson and Max Silberman." Needs citation.  Done
  • A large majority of the second paragraph is unsourced, save for the lyrics. It really does read like one big point of view, and as we know, we can't submit our point of view, this is especially noticeable with sentences like "This could also signify that this emotional exchange is repetitive." could? from who's point of view?  Done

Release and reception[edit]

  • "The song was released after its premiere on BBC Radio 1 at 19:30 GMT on 20 August 2012." Needs citation.  Done
  • 'described it as "like' reads poorly.  Done
  • Why is the paragraph split with a following mere two sentences? If you're going to split the section into two paragraphs, perhaps have one focusing on critical reception, and the other on commercial performance. Speaking of commercial performance, why have you only commented on two charts while the song did pretty well internationally? Give a broader perspective.  Done
  • Don't use hashtags when writing out chart peaks, use 'number 45' instead.  Done
  • "in its 27th week." 27th week of what? release? charting?  Done
  • "making it the song with the most weeks at number one ever on that chart." Needs citation.  Done

Track listing[edit]

  • Both of these variations need sourcing.  Done

Charts and certifications[edit]

Weekly charts[edit]

  • Stylize the UK Streaming entry like the entry above it for the UK Singles chart.  Done
  • Per WP:USCHARTS, because the song entered the Hot Rock Songs and Rock Airplay charts, you should remove the Adult Alternative Songs, Alternative Songs, and Mainstream Rock listings.  Done
  • The US chart entries should be listed Hot 100 → Everything else, alphabetized.  Done

Year-end charts[edit]

  • Alphabetize US charts.  Done

See also[edit]

  • Both occurrences of Billboard should be in italics.  Done

References[edit]

  • 3 dead links  Done
  • Lots of MoS:DASH violations in titles.  Done
  • #1 – An unverified YouTube channel isn't a reliable source.  Done
  • #3 – HitFix shouldn't be in italics.  Done
  • #7 – Metro.co.uk → Metro  Done
  • #9 – Is there no secondary source that can vouch for the music videos release date instead?  Done
  • #15 – Same comment as above.  Done
  • #17 – Unlink NME  Done
  • #21 – Unlink Rolling Stone  Done
  • #22 – Unlink NME  Done
  • #27 – Bare url  Done
  • #36 – There's a {{singlechart}} that can replace this reference, see Chasing Time (song) for an example.  Done
  • #55-62 – Unlink Billboard  Done
  • #67 – The work parameter should be Recording Industry Association of America  Done
  • I will most likely have a few more minor comments about the references once the main issues are addressed.
