Lead
*Try to not mention album twice in one sentence
 * Done


 * Two originals appear on the set, which were written by Aly & AJ with Armato and James -> I think you should tell us which they are
 * Well this is the lead and it is supposed to only summarize. If that were so then I would name all the Christmas carols too. I could see if just one song, but since more than one, I believe it should be left to the body.


 * It utilizes influences of pop, pop rock, ->It uses pop influence
 * Done.


 * and teen pop on Christmas music -> and?
 * The album received generally positive reviews, complimenting -> who complimented? you need to write critics
 * Done.


 * and peaked on the Top Holiday Albums chart at fourteen -> and peaked at # '' on the Holiday
 * Done


 * It was the second best-selling holiday album of 2006 -> The reference used in the body does not verify this in any way. I also don't see how its possible; it only peaked at number 78. According to this source, the best-seller that year was Sarah McLachlan's which peaked at #7. I don't see how #2 that year could have that much of a gap.
 * Hmmm, that is interesting. But that's what the book said.
 * The source isn't a book though, its a Billboard page that verifies chart peaks.-- CallMe Nathan  &bull;  Talk2Me   17:15, 25 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Walt Disney Christmas Parade -> link
 * There is no page for that.
 * Walt Disney World Christmas Day Parade :P.-- CallMe Nathan  &bull;  Talk2Me   17:15, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Background
*were enlisted to executive produce -> were hired as executive producers
 * Done, but using "recruited" as I believe Armato and James are the label's producers, so were already hired.

Composition
*Acoustic Hearts of Winter is musically Christmas music -> re-write
 * Done


 * while two original numbers are also present -> including two original songs
 * Hope you don't think I question anything, but I don't see what's wrong with "two original numbers..." Candy  o32  15:07, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
 * I don't mind :) That part isn't the issue, its the "also are present," maybe try included.-- CallMe Nathan  &bull;  Talk2Me   17:17, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Critical reception
*I don't see how "JesusFreakHideout" and "The Celebrity Cafe" are reliable music critics. IMO, About.com is already pushing it.
 * Well first of all for starters they seem refutable enough to warrant their own Wiki page, but then again TMZ does too. In vein of a smaller, holiday album GA like Sounds of the Season: The Taylor Swift Holiday Collection, I think we can only use the best of what is available, and this seems to be as reliable as we can get.

 * complimented the classic Christmas songs done in a -> re-write
 * What's wrong needs to be rewritten? Candy  o32  14:52, 25 November 2010 (UTC)
 * "done in a" doesn't flow or read well, change those last few words before the quote.-- CallMe Nathan  &bull;  Talk2Me   17:22, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Chart performance
*On the chart issued December 2, 2006 -> dated
 * Done.


 * A week later, it moved up to number fourteen, where it peaked. It spent fourteen weeks on the chart -> try to merge into one sentence
 * Sounds kind of garbled together, but done.


 * Second best-selling is not verified in reference
 * Oops wrong ref. Fixed. Candy  o32  15:07, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

Promotion
*and another which features soley the sisters -> syntax and re-write
 * Done


 * at an opening at -> act
 * Done


 * Thats it, I'm watching this page so I'll check back once you address these issues :)-- CallMe Nathan  &bull;  Talk2Me   02:26, 25 November 2010 (UTC)


 * Well done, few more to fix. Also, you need to include page numbers in the book sources. Look at "All I Want for Christmas Is You" if you need help, its quite simple. Good job! :)-- CallMe Nathan  &bull;  Talk2Me   17:22, 25 November 2010 (UTC)


 * I've done everything except for the page numbers, because I cannot tell which page numbers there are because they are not present and pages do not appear in between the preview of it on Google Books. Candy  o32  16:16, 4 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Its alright, I won't have that stop you. Good job!-- CallMe Nathan  &bull;  Talk2Me   04:10, 8 December 2010 (UTC)
