Second oldest nomination right now, let's do this. I'll try to review it this year still. Skyshifter  talk  22:36, 26 December 2023 (UTC)

General comments

 * Fair use image has a valid rationale
 * No copyvio (highest one there copies text from Wikipedia).

Infobox and lead

 * Ok

Background and production

 * — confusing, maybe missing a semicolon or something?

Music

 * — I'd suggest because the word "record" is being used too much
 * ✅ -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * — is "opens" the correct term here? I interpret that as "Acuérdate de Mi" being the opening part of the third track (meaning there's more to it). Also, the standard here for citing the year would be "Alpha (1986)". So my suggestion would be
 * ✅ -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * — change to, otherwise it feels like "Acuérdate de Mi" comes after "Tú No Sabes".
 * ✅ -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * — in this sentence, "The subsequent tracks" only applies to "Cariño, Cariño Mío" and "Dulce Amor", so would make it clear that the latter two songs also follow the previous ones. So something like should do
 * ✅ -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * — it's not clear what position these tracks are in the album or that they follow the previous ones. Suggestion:
 * ✅ -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * — Same here. Maybe
 * ✅ Changed to 15th as per MOS:1ST, let me know if fifteenth is better -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
 * Scratch that, I changed it to fifteenth to be consistent with "The thirteenth track, 'Dime'" Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:05, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Release and critical reception

 * — change to "one of his recommended listens"
 * ✅ -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Add the year of publication for Texas Monthly's Joe Nick Patoski list in prose
 * ✅ Should be 1992 as per source right? -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * I'm not sure this is a necessary quote. The album is a greatest hits album by Selena, so it is "a collection of Selena hits" by definition.
 * for now, let me know if the prime editor wants to integrate the Billboard source -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * change the comma to a semicolon
 * ✅ -19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Track listing

 * Originales is mispelled
 * ✅ -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * In the third track, change A. B. to A. B. Quintanilla, as he still wasn't mentioned in the track listing by then
 * ✅ -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)

Chart performance

 * Ok

Other + spotcheck

 * Good sources and ref formatting
 * Spotcheck: AGF for offline sources. I might check all the online sources due to the low number of them.


 * This only confirms the date, so information such as "As part of a commemoration of Selena's twentieth year since entering the music industry" doesn't appear referenced. However, it seems like Cobo 2002, p. 26, confirms it; can you include it alongside the Brown source?

 * Now knowing the context, "a collection of Selena hits" is indeed just another way of saying "greatest hits albums", not her opinion about the album, so the sentence should be removed.

 * The source says "An overview of Selena's early career." Can "overview" really be rewritten as "comprehensive examination"? You could just use "overview" or more accurate synonyms such as "general review" or "summary".

 * ✅ Already done prior to me -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Source says "and he would ignore us", and the article says "Silva spurned and disregarded the group". I don't think "ignore" becoming "spurned and disregarded" is accurate. Seems like the same case as above; why not just use "ignore"?

 * @Skyshifter Hey there! I'm just a random editor who happens to be stopping by after it said the OG nominator was inactive. I went around and fixed the article to the best of my abilities, ping me back if there's anything missing. Also kudos to you for reviewing and passing Skibidi Toilet lol. -Dcdiehardfan (talk) 19:02, 2 January 2024 (UTC)
