I'll try to have a review up today, but I'll be camping all weekend and won't be able to respond to replies until Monday. Thanks, liquidluck ✽ talk  02:24, 26 June 2010 (UTC) Right, here's a start (not yet complete, I'll finish and respond to questions when I get back). liquidluck ✽ talk 07:20, 26 June 2010 (UTC)

 * I will continue the review of the article, seeing as the previous reviewer has stopped. Adabow (talk · contribs) 10:45, 13 August 2010 (UTC)


 * lead: mall 'and bowling-alley setting


 * In July 2010, the video became most viewed video in YouTube history "the most viewed"?


 * File:Baby.ogg is far too long (36s). Per WP:SAMPLE, non-free audio recordings should be less than 10% of the original recording, up to 30 seconds. Please trim to less than 21.6s.

 * You have only reduced the sample to 26 seconds - it needs to be 21s or less. Also the quality of the sample is too high. Adabow (talk · contribs) 01:00, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks for trimming it, but the quality needs to be reduced to about 65kbps. Adabow (talk · contribs) 05:04, 17 August 2010 (UTC)


 * 'Chart performance' section: this needs a pretty decent copy-edit. An example: "Baby" was beaten out as the weeks highest debut by Taylor Swift's "Today Was a Fairytale" which debuted at number two. beaten out? weeks highest? Maybe "Baby" was beaten as the week's highest debut by Taylor Swift's "Today Was a Fairytale", which debuted at number two. "beaten as" still sounds iffy, maybe a total restructure of this sentence.....anyway, have a read over the section for tone, spelling, grammar, et cetera
 * Justin Bieber should be referred to here by his surname, not his given name


 * 'Music video' section Singer/actress Jasmine Villegas portrays Bieber's love interest in the video. Bieber's friends, Young Money artists Canadian rapper Drake, and Lil Twist also appeared in the video, alongside Tinashe Kachingwe and jerkin' crew, The Ranger$ → Singer and actress Jasmine Villegas portrays Bieber's love interest in the video. Bieber's friends, Young Money artists Drake and Lil Twist also appeared in the video, along with Tinashe Kachingwe and jerkin' crew The Rangers.
 * Fix
 * The claim about Drake and Lil Twist being Bieber's friends seems like OR
 * Added sources,
 * Also wikify MTV
 * Again, the most watched video...
 * Again, the most watched video...


 * 'Live performances' section: are there any photos available?
 * During most live performances of the song, Bieber jerks during the end of the chorus - needs a source


 * Charts - looks good, but are there no other certs? With high chartings in some countries, the song may have received certifications there, too (apologies if you have already looked into this)
 * Already looked into it, hasn't been certified a lot...dont know why. - (CK)Lakeshade  -  talk2me  -


 * 'Release history': seems quite short. Surely references for other release can be found easily?
 * Most were removed and just added as a purchasable song from the album, I don't believe there are anymore available. - (CK)Lakeshade  -  talk2me  -


 * References: run through them all; I have seen at least one without and accessdate, and several from the iTunes Store formatted in different ways. Likewise with Billboard sources.
 * Ive gone through each one and fixed them. - (CK)Lakeshade  -  talk2me  -

I will put the review on hold now... Adabow (talk · contribs) 11:17, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
