Let It Go (EP)[edit]

5x expanded by 001Jrm (talk). Self-nominated at 01:59, 13 May 2015 (UTC).

  • Hook fact checks out, according to Google Translate. AGF on paraphrasing (a lot of the sources are Korean, a language I can't read). No image to check. Length and age are appropriate. Good to go. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:57, 15 May 2015 (UTC)
  • The hook doesn't make sense. What was his motivation? Also, the article needs a light copyedit for encyclopedic grammar. Yoninah (talk) 17:14, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
  • I thought that it would be hooky-er if I write it that way.. Anyways, uhmm inserting phrases like "...to challenge himself as a solo artist..." and "...to expand his singing abilities..." would be to obvious and not hooky, I believe? sooo.. how 'bout,
ALT1: ... that Heo Young-saeng chose dance song "Let It Go" as his title track for his solo debut EP to get away from his usual ballad songs that people already know about?
ALT2: ... that Heo Young-saeng chose dance song "Let It Go" as his title track for his solo debut EP to try out other genres different from his usual ballad songs?
  • I also did a few edits on the article, but let me know if it needs more copyediting. Thanks! 001Jrm (talk) 22:17, 17 May 2015 (UTC)
  • I went ahead and copyedited the page for English grammar and to make the language more encyclopedic. It's not clear to me why you're calling it an "EP" when it's a mini album. What's left of the ballad/dance tempo idea could yield this hook:
  • ALT3: ... that Heo Young-saeng, who usually sings ballads as a member of South Korean boy band SS501, chose a dance song for the title track of his solo debut album, Let It Go? Yoninah (talk) 13:16, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
  • Thank you... so much! Yes, this source refers Let It Go as a mini-album. However, EPs are often referred to as mini-albums in S.Korea (probably in Asia). Wikipedia redirects 'mini-album' to Mini-LP, but recognizes that releases often referred to as Mini-albums in Asia should see Extended play. So, should I use mini-album or EP? Thanks! 001Jrm (talk) 20:13, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
  • Well, it looks like "EP" is fine, based on that hatnote. Since I just rewrote all the information you had in ALTS 0, 1, and 2, I'll go ahead and approve ALT3. Foreign-language hook refs verified and cited inline. ALT3 good to go. Yoninah (talk) 22:40, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
