Reviewer here. Bruce Campbell (talk) 00:57, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Literally the only things I could nitpick:

"In 2011, Miguel collaborated with rapper Wale on the latter's single "Lotus Flower Bomb", which attained extended airplay on urban radio into 2012." - explain directly what this has to do with the background. Should be mentioned that it was his breakout single/that it was a top 40 single and secured him the interest of a wider audience, etc.
Prince, Marvin Gaye, Frank Ocean etc are wikilinked multiple times. Some publications are too, like Pitchfork Media. (yeah I know how repetitive of an issue it is )
I dunno... wikilink Rock-paper-scissors?
If the album was released in Canada why doesn't it have a charting position?

So yeah, this definitely fulfills the GA criteria... I just don't like passing things without at least attempting to comment on what could be improved even if there's very little. Bruce Campbell (talk) 02:17, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Done; either it charted at too low of a position in Canada to be reported by Billboard and the like, or a lot of Canadians are missing out on good music. Dan56 (talk) 02:42, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Passed. Bruce Campbell (talk) 03:23, 11 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Supposed deluxe version[edit]

This source from JPC (retailer) does not verify what you are using the Amazon.com source to support. Your source does not say anything about it being a German, Swiss, or Austrian release. All it says is "Kaleidoscope Dream (Deluxe Version)" in a store that's translated in German. Using it to support what you added is original research, meaning that it does not directly/explicitly support what it's supposedly citing. It also contradicts the source that is more reliable for this information: a major German retailer. Dan56 (talk) 01:26, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]


You know what this is pointless. I know for a fact that the album is being re-released with the tracklist. Just watch and see. So damn stubborn. Amazon.de works independently from Amazon.com...

This from JPC.de. They are also going to sell the re-release with the new tracklist. http://www.jpc.de/jpcng/poprock/detail/-/art/Miguel-Kaleidoscope-Dream-Deluxe-Version/hnum/3586968

Same goes for this Swiss retailer. http://www.buch.ch/shop/home/artikeldetails/kaleidoscope_dream_deluxe_version/miguel/EAN0888837318228/ID35055523.html;jsessionid=C2735280E2C542EE0DDCB497D3BE1A5B.tc1p

Neither link you provided shows a track listing. Dan56 (talk) 01:51, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

???. I'm seeing the original release's 11-track listing. Dan56 (talk) 01:05, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You are f**ing annoying. http://www.jpc.de/jpcng/poprock/detail/-/art/Miguel-Kaleidoscope-Dream-Deluxe-Version/hnum/3586968

IT IS RIGHT THERE! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.71.165.253 (talk) 08:53, 14 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That's not what you originally showed. Calm urself. Dan56 (talk) 03:05, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
BTW, your most recent link is erroneous: track number 10 "We've Only Just Begun" is merely just a sample used in the preceding song "How Many Drinks?" ([1]); same for "Time Of The Season" being sampled on "Don't Look Back", and "I Got The" on "Kaleidoscope Dream" (as credited in the liner notes). Dan56 (talk) 03:14, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Let me interfere here, the album is indeed being re-released. Malcolmo (talk) 09:52, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
