Infobox and lead[edit]

  • The songwriters are not directly sourced anywhere in the body as they should be
  • Wikilink Philipp Kirkovov in the lead
  • "to select Russian entrant." → "to select the Russian entrant."
  • To avoid the lead being too cluttered, you should start a new para at Vocal Band
  • "due to the band members being" → "due to the members being"
  • Wikilink music video
  • I think it is worth noting that the placing was their worst result

Background[edit]

  • Introduce RTR and ORT by their full names per this being the first mentions in the body

At Eurovision[edit]

  • Img looks good!

  • "didn't participate in 1994 contest." → "didn't participate in this contest."

K. Peake, I've made almost all the changes you've requested. Only I had one question (added above). Danilmay (talk) 00:02, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Danilmay MOS:QWQ issues are when you have used double speech marks inside reference titles; replace with singular ones ('). --K. Peake 15:17, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
