 * Several sentences are not correct. For example: "serious down and dirty", "to eliminate the "teenybopper" and "girl next door" image"
 * 'Composition' and 'Critical reception' sections are not enough
 * 'Music video' section is too long and overkill the article
 * Refs 72, 92 are not in the parameter
 * Unreliable sources: ATRL, Rock on the Net, MonkeySuppers...
 * ""Dirrty" stayed on the Italian Singles Chart for 21 weeks, peaking at number 8. Source?
 * The sales of "Dirrty" in the US weren't as successful as Aguilera's previous singles; but only because it was released as a 12" vinyl single". Where is the source?
 * "Stylus Magazine called ... occasions". Overkill the critical reception.
 * Billboard Hot 100. Must be Billboard Hot 100
 * "In the United States, "Dirrty" achieved moderate success on the Billboard Hot 100, peaking at number 48; however it logged 40 weeks on the chart, making it her longest-charting song to date". Source?
 * Aguilera decided to use a misspelling for the title as a way to personalize the song, also considering "Dirtee" or "Dirrdy". She decided on "Dirrty" as a reflection of the music video, commenting, "I felt like having two r's, kind of like grrr...Gritty...underground, illegal stuff going on." This must be at the 'Background' section, not 'Composition'
 * "In subsequent years however, the video received praise from the likes of Kelly Clarkson, Miley Cyrus and Taylor Momsen, with Cyrus claiming it to be one of the greatest videos ever." Requires reliable sources
 * Track listings: Requires reliable sources, not Discogs.
