Hannah Montana: The Movie (soundtrack)[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because… I want to nominate it for GA in a couple of weeks, but I want to make sure the article is perfect and meets all the requirements. Anything is accepted: copy-editing, sources, etc. Please help with anything you can to make the album better.

Comments: The article looks very for good for the criteria, but I suggest one thing. I don't know what you call this bracket symbol: { but there are two references with that redundently cluttering it up. Otherwise then that, good luck for WP:GAN! ATC . Talk 02:55, 25 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Liquidluck (talk) Lead

  • is a soundtrack for -> "the" soundtrack for
  • Perhaps make the difference between Cyrus and Montana more clear. For example, take out the parenthesis and say in the next sentence, "Songs performed by Cyrus were credited to both herself and to her movie character, "Hannah Montana".
  • mainly [...] Gerrard,the latter who ->primarily [...], Gerrard. Gerrard also produced Cyrus' hit "The Best of Both Worlds", a remix of which is featured as the album's closing track.
  • various nation -> various nations
  • Since it is an American album, shouldn't another country be listed as the highest international peak? You could say, "In the United States, the album spent a week at number one on the Billboard 200, thereby becoming Cyrus' fourth album to top the chart." The album also became Cyrus' first Top Country Albums number one in the U.S. Its highest international peak was (Blank). The soundtrack was certified platinum by the (blank) on (blank date).
  • copy-edited: The lead single from the album, "The Climb", became Cyrus' best charting single at the time. Cyrus' "Hoedown Throwdown" is the album's follow-up single and reached the top ten on the Irish Singles Chart. The album was promoted through exclusive releases to Radio Disney and live performances at numerous venues, notably Cyrus' first worldwide tour, the Wonder World Tour.

Writing and development

  • "The songs were written for the composers and eventually offered to Peter Chelsom, the film's director." This sentence is confusing, and it isn't sourced. Who are the composers? Why didn't the composers want them? If the songs weren't written by the composers, who were they written by?
  • The citation for Cyrus only wrote Don't Walk Away is only a track listing- it doesn't say who wrote the songs. You can delete the "Of her songs" clause, since Cyrus did not write any of the other songs on the album.
  • I think the fact that the Hoedown Throwdown was an ongoing collaboration between Jamal Simms, Chelsom, Cyrus, and the writers is a better fact to use. Replace?
  • Climb section: You only need one citation, at the end of "offered it to Cyrus". Also, who is Jon Mabe? It isn't mentioned.
  • Unless you know that Cyrus re-recorded Best of Both Worlds, just say "a remixed version of the BoBW... . I could be wrong, but I think remixes are usually done digitally rather than by re-recording.
  • Find a source that says the songs performed by BRC and Rushton were promotion; otherwise, just say they were featured on their own albums. If these songs were included in the movie, they definitely weren't used as promotion- they just happened to be selected.
  • Find a source that Crazier was intended for Fearless; the current source is just a track listing.

Music structure and lyrics

  • Copy-edited: Musically, the album is country heavy, but merges contemporary (contemporary what?), country pop, country rock,[2] and teen pop styles.[1]
  • Delete the on an interview with Just Jared sentence- it's unnecessary.
  • "making a beat from from" -> delete a from.
  • Change "throughout the week" to "in it's fifth week"

Nicely done on the rest, especially promotion. Overall, delink everything that has already been linked before, even if it was linked in the lead. The one exception would be song titles, esp. in the singles section. Image captions should be interesting facts related to the section, sort of tiny "did you knows?" per WP:CAP. Hope that helps!
