Wikipedia:Peer review/Hit 'Em Up/archive1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I would like it to reach FA status. I believe it is an important cultural topic; I did very prematurely bring it to FAC on the day that I moved it from userspace. The points raised during that discussion I have addressed, excluding some minor prose issues.

  • 2Pac (real name Tupac Shakur) I'm not sure this is the best wording. Perhaps just remove "real name". I saw that was brought up in FAC, but I have never seen that before.
Removed "real name".
Linked.
  • "Hit 'Em Up" was written[2] and recorded in Can Am Studios in Los Angeles, California in May 1996.[3] Why is there a reference randomly placed after "was written"? This also goes against MOS because references should generally go after punctuation.
Addressed; one reference said written, the other recorded.
  • Dramacydal and Outlawz are the same group, and should be noted as the same name to be consistent.
Fixed.
  • Los Angeles, California should be linked.
Added.
  • New Jersey should be linked.
Added.
  • Is there no last name for 'Tiffany'?
The book I read made no mention of her last name, although I did not have full view of the text. Her inclusion in the article was brought up during FAC, I thought it relevant to his lifestyle, along with the information about his assistant getting involved with his other female associates.
  • or at least had advance knowledge he would be robbed and shot insert "that" inbetween "knowledge" and "he".
Added.
  • although it did not mention Shakur's name he felt it was mockingly directed towards him insert comma after "name".
Added.
  • Lyrically, the song was aimed primarily at The Notorious B.I.G. since it was just talking about "Who Shot Ya?", specify it was "Hit 'Em Up", not just "the song".
Fixed.
  • Ref 12 should go at the end of the sentence after ref 8
Moved.
  • A reference is needed directly after quotes.
Do you mean that there should be a ref after the quote, instead of at the end of the sentence, making "Biggie, remember when I used to let you sleep on the couch?" and their subsequent fallout.[15] incorrect?
  • Chino XL also came under fire "came under fire" is poor English
changed to "was also insulted.
  • There is inconsistency between the uses of ". and ."
changed all occurrences to ."
Added.
Added.
  • Put ref 33 at the end of the sentence and remove the comma between "Mall" and "in"
Done.
  • Shakur had already had enough, so he fired her "already had enough" is not professional wording
changed to "had grown wary of her"
  • the release of "Hit 'Em Up" Evans Comma before "Evans"
Added.
  • That's all I see right now. Also, it's nice to see another 2Pac article attempting to achieve a higher status. I recently nominated Me Against The World for GA and was passed. If this is to fail FAC again, I strongly suggest that you or someone else nominate it for GA. CrowzRSA 03:28, 9 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
