A fact from City Girl (song) appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 29 March 2013 (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Kevin Shields used a "slapdash approach" to recording while producing "City Girl"?

This more or less meets the GA criteria IMO, I just have minor quibbles:

"Produced by Shields, the song has been described as a mid-tempo garage-influenced alternative rock song" could avoid repetition here
"...inclusion on the Lost in Translation soundtrack, and earned Shields nominations for a number of awards; including a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) award for Best Film Music, an...", is it grammatically correct to place a semicolon before an -ing? Perhaps change that part to "...nominations for a number of awards; these include a British Academy...
Would be clearer if direct quotes like "very simple, in the sense that it was just me teaching Brian the chord structure and Brian just jamming along to it." had a citation next to it.

No dabs or dead links. References are formatted appropriately and the one image has a sufficient license to go with it. Shall pass once comments have been addressed, on hold till then. Lemonade51 (talk) 18:11, 5 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Cheers for the review. Think I addressed all the issues in my last edit, if not let me know. --Idiotchalk _(t@lk) 19:12, 5 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
