I've listed this article for peer review because the article failed FAC two months and has since then received a copy-edit from the guild and a review from AJona1992. Before renominating FAC, I would like to receive feedback from someone who is unfamiliar with the artist and Latin music in particular.

Thanks in advance! Erick (talk) 17:50, 19 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Nikkimaria I'm not able to speak authoritatively to the comprehensiveness of this article, so keep that in mind when reading the below.

  • When you have a full date (including day as well as month) in the middle of the sentence, per MOS you should have a comma after the year

 Added a comma after every year with a full date

  • If there's only one person as the focus of the picture, you don't need to say (pictured)

 Removed pictured

  • How long is the original recording from which that sample was taken? Should include that in the description to verify that WP:SAMPLE is met. You should also explain further why the sample meets fair-use requirements, rather than relying on the generic example rationale

 Addressed on the file page with a further explanation for the rationale

  • Is there a project-based guideline you're following for the organization of the article? Personally I would think it would be more logical to associate the Charts and Certifications sections more closely with Commercial performance
Yes, I based the organization on WP:ALBUMS. See Fijación Oral, Vol. 1 a FA-article I co-contributed to.
  • "Since Miguel signed with WEA Latina in 1987, he has been successful in Mexico" - does this remain true today? If so, you will want a more recent source to support that. Also in that sentence I think you mean "cumulatively" rather than "accumulatively"
Miguel is still popular in Mexico to this day, but I decided to remove the "he has been successful in Mexico" because the background is just meant to be a timeframe between his last recording and this album.
  • Is it known why Calderón's cover versions were not approved?
After reading the article more closely again, I realized that "covers" never appeared in it. The article is a bit vague on what happened, but it does mention the record label unconvinced of Calderon's songs he pre-selected.
  • Who decided on the title?
I couldn't find who decided on the title, but I did find the reason for title which I added.
  • Where was the music video released - was it screened on television, released via YouTube or similar...?

 Premiered on a Mexican variety show which I added

  • "also has an orchestral accompaniment" - full orchestra, or just strings?
I changed this part to mentioning that this video was also directed by Pedro Torres and filmed in Miami just as its predecessor video did.
  • Suggest wikilinking crossover in the article body

 Done

  • You sometimes use Allmusic and sometimes AllMusic - which is correct?

 Fixed the inconsistency

  • Suggest a different arrangement of Credits, splitting performing and non-performing personnel

 Split between performance credits and technical credits

  • Your citation formatting could use work before returning to FAC. Here are some suggestions: shorten Google Books URLs to after the page number where possible; be consistent about whether you include publishers for periodicals (and if so how these are formatted); be consistent in when you include accessdates (generally they aren't needed for GBooks); include page numbers for print sources without weblinks.

 Shortened the urls for Google Books, added publishers for El Informador, and added accessdates for other weblinks, and added page number for album booklet. Nikkimaria (talk) 04:12, 20 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you very much for taking the time for reviewing the article Nikkiamaria. Your insight has been very helpful for me to contribute to the article. Erick (talk) 20:56, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]
