Hey Ya!

Review commentary

Notified: WikiProject Songs, WikiProject Hip Hop

I highlighted some concerns on the article's talk page about two weeks ago and some issues were fixed the same day. No other work was done, so I just made a copyedit myself. However, some of the writing is still confusing, and some parts of the article still lack sourcing (track listings/formats). And a few dead links need to be taken care of. Also, I don't know what makes "Rock on the Net" a reliable source with no editorial policy given. Till 10:41, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

Agreed with the Rock on the Net point. I found the writing okay, but the article still feels a little incomplete research wise. Farrtj (talk) 14:40, 10 March 2013 (UTC)

FARC commentary

FA criteria mentioned in the review section include prose, referencing and comprehensiveness. Dana boomer (talk) 12:41, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

• Delist. One month later: very repetitive prose (I saw 'topping' five times in 1 paragraph), 'Rock on the Net' fails WP:RS and unsourced sections (track listing, personnel). Overall, not a depiction of Wikipedia's best work Till 01:30, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
• Delist per above, none of the problems have been addressed. Ten Pound Hammer • ^{(What did I screw up now?)} 18:28, 24 April 2013 (UTC)
