 * I've read the article and found some few issues:
 * Lead
 * The song is widely recognized as one of Aguilera's signature songs. ---> Remove it to the second paragraph
 * It has since been certified platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA) and gold by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) and Recording Industry Association of New Zealand (RIANZ). ---> Too much information, fix it
 * The song won the Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 2004 Grammy Awards, and was also nominated for Song of the Year. ---> The song won a Grammy Award for Best Pop Female Vocal Performance, and was also nominated for Song of the Year at the 2004 ceremony
 * "Beautiful" was listed at number 52 on Rolling Stone's top 100 songs of the 2000s and number 18 on VH1's 100 Greatest Songs of '00s list. ---> "Beautiful" was listed at number 52 on Rolling Stone's top 100 songs of the 2000s and number 18 on the same list by VH1
 * "Beatiful" has been covered numerous times; notable performers, such as Elvis Costello, David Archuleta, Kenny G, and Chaka Khan have recorded their own versions of the song. ---> Repetition of "Beautiful", try "the song" or "it"
 * The third paragraph: Add "An accompanying music video was directed by XXX..."
 * Background and composition
 * It's a short section, but there are two files. Replace one of them
 * Commercial performance
 * The single was very successful worldwide, but this section is too short. Try to write more.
 * Music video and live performances
 * Merge them together into a new section "Promotion", because they're short
 * Cultural impact and cover versions
 * Merge them together

✅ all up to this point. I will be making sure to check back on the review often and make sure I complete further requested changes. Thanks for taking on the review! WikiRedactor (talk) 19:55, 13 May 2013 (UTC)

Some more issues ✅ all but the last, as the reference directs to the official RIANZ. Might you have confused it for another citation? WikiRedactor (talk) 21:46, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
 * Lead
 * The song won the Best Female Pop Vocal Performance at the 2004 Grammy Awards, and was also nominated for Song of the Year at the 2004 ceremony. ---> Repetition of "The song", fix "Beautiful" won a Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, and also was nominated for Song of the Year at the 2004 ceremony
 * "Beautiful" was listed at number 52 on Rolling Stone's top 100 songs of the 2000s and number 18 on on the same list by VH1. ---> Has a problem
 * Critical reception
 * Add some best-of lists (like Rolling Stone's 100 greatest songs of the 2000s, etc...)
 * Year-end charts
 * What year?
 * Certifications
 * The source for New Zealand certification is not reliable. Try to find another source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by HĐ (talk • contribs) 01:25, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
 * I couldn't find it either. Links for RIANZ certifications are very bad, most of them are dead. But you did very great, so I passed it for you! Good job, just "Keeps Gettin' Better" ! HĐ (talk) 04:22, 15 May 2013 (UTC)
