Talk:Day Breaks

Needs a rewrite
I give the author of this article A for effort and A for compiling a nice group of sources. However the final product is written in a poorly organized and promotional fashion. I welcome the collaboration of other editors to build on the notable efforts of the article creator and improve the article.
 * Excessive quoting ie "After the first record, I drifted away from the piano a little bit. I still played it, but was more inspired to write on guitar. I really loved playing piano on this record."
 * Excessive amounts of trivia and poor writing "Having just had a baby and a piano in her kitchen..."
 * Un-encyclopedic promotional details ie "Target's exclusive edition of the album contains four additional live songs"
 * Promo spin ie "the album has an average score of 81 out of 100, which indicates "universal acclaim" based on 7 reviews"

Background and recording
I'd like to remove this sentence from the article: Because: What do others think?-- — <b style= "color:#085;">Keithbob</b> • Talk  • 20:22, 24 October 2016 (UTC)
 * In November 2015 while on a brief US tour, Jones confirmed that she had finished "a big chunk" of recording for her sixth studio album and that it was "coming soon."
 * It's promotional trivia and non-notable.
 * The cited source doesn't mention the subject of this article: Day Breaks
 * To editorialize and say that her side comment to a reporter was about this album is WP:OR in my opinion.
 * Since there don't seem to be any objections, I've removed the sentence.--<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS,sans -serif"> — <b style= "color:#085;">Keithbob</b> • Talk  • 17:45, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Another sentence
I'd also like to remove this sentence for the same reasons as the one above:
 * On March 1, 2016, Jones announced on social media that she was almost finished with her new album.
 * The source doesn't mention the album Day Breaks
 * It's trivia
 * It's sourced to a Facebook comment
 * --<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS,sans -serif"> — <b style= "color:#085;">Keithbob</b> • Talk  • 18:05, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
 * Since there are no objections, I've removed the sentence.--<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS,sans -serif"> — <b style= "color:#085;">Keithbob</b> • Talk  • 18:07, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

Blade the drummer
I'd like to remove this off topic WP:COATRACK sentence which gives no info about the article topic (The album Day Breaks) ✅ --<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS,sans -serif"> — <b style= "color:#085;">Keithbob</b> • Talk  • 17:58, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Blade previously worked with Jones on her debut, Come Away with Me.

Singles section
I'd like to remove these three sentences also: Any comments or suggestions?--<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS,sans -serif"> — <b style= "color:#085;">Keithbob</b> • Talk  • 18:10, 7 November 2016 (UTC)
 * On August 5, 2016, Day Breaks' lead single, "Carry On", was released to digital outlets.
 * Why? The digital release 2 days before the official album release is non-notable.
 * On September 9, 2016, "Flipside" was released as the first promotional single to digital outlets.
 * Why? It's more trivia and worse yet its cited to the Amazon sale page for the song. A promotional non-reliable source.
 * On September 30, 2016, "Tragedy" was released as the second promotional single to digital outlets.
 * Why? More trivia and cited to the Amazon sale page for the song.
 * I've summarized the information about the release date and the singles. Which are notable. I've removed the trivia about digital outlets and the Amazon sale pages which are not reliable sources.--<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS,sans -serif"> — <b style= "color:#085;">Keithbob</b> • Talk  • 16:05, 9 November 2016 (UTC)

Target
I'd also like to remove this sentence: --<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS,sans -serif"> — <b style= "color:#085;">Keithbob</b> • Talk  • 16:12, 9 November 2016 (UTC) ✅
 * Target's exclusive edition of the album contains four additional live songs.
 * It appears to be promotional trivia and its cited to Target's website. Not a reliable source.

Tour
I've removed this sentence: we don't report future events that have not occurred unless they are so notable they would deserve their own article.--<span style="font-family:Comic Sans MS,sans -serif"> — <b style= "color:#085;">Keithbob</b> • Talk  • 16:01, 19 November 2016 (UTC)
 * In support of the album, Jones is scheduled to tour portions of North America and Europe throughout late 2016.
 * Because the source does not say the tour is in support or to promote the new album. It is also a "scheduled" tour and per WP:Crystal
