Good work! Here are some minor issues:-


 * Lead
 * three on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs. The song received a gold certification.. — The song "also" received a gold certification. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * the song appeared on charts in Australia, Ireland, the Netherlands.. — the song appeared on "the" charts in.. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Its Melina-directed music video shows the singer and backup dancers in a warehouse, and it presents choreography similar to that of "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)." — confusing. Change to something like Its music video, directed by Melina, shows the singer and backup dancers in a warehouse, and it presents choreography similar to that of "Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It).". Also, it presents "a" choreography.. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Background and release
 * an interview Bangladesh gave "at" Rap-Up — an interview Bangladesh gave "with" Rap-Up. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * he initially produced "Diva" to put it on a mixtape featuring a female artist on the song — whose mixtape? ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * to urban radio on January 20, 2009 while "Halo" was sent — a comma is needed after 2009. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * The second paragraph has two "However", and some sentences are confusing like "However, its release was scrapped and "Diva" was released instead to urban radio on January 20, 2009 while "Halo" was sent for mainstream airplay on the same date. However, on the same date, "Diva" was sent to rhythmic radio alone." ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Additionally, "Diva" was released as a B-side single in Germany with "Halo" as the A-side single. — reword to something like Additionally, in Germany, "Diva" was featured as the B-side to "Halo" single. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Composition
 * There are many similarities between Knowles' "Diva" and the song "A Milli" by Lil Wayne. This is due to the fact that both are produced by Bangladesh — sounds too basic. Reword. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Knowles was asked whether she agrees that — she "agreed". ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * In this way, the song became to be known as the feminine companion to Lil Wayne's "A Milli". — this also sounds basic. Reword. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * In terms of audacity — change link to "audacity". The current link goes to Audacity software. ✅
 * No, it's not fixed. Novice7 (talk) 07:42, 11 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Does "audacity" suit the situation? ✅ In this context, yes. You have to listen to "Ring The Alarm" and "Freakrum Dress" to know more about this. Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Now ✅


 * Critical reception
 * "praising or criticizing "it as" a female companion" — it "being" a.. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * "which can become a source of inspiration to drag queens" — which "could" become.. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Nick Levine of Digital Spy teased that "'Sasha'" — teased? Change the word. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * "Bill Lamb of About.com told "Diva" adopts a" — About.com commented or About.com wrote.. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * "PopMatters picked out the track as the highlight of the album" — track as "a" highlight. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Charts and live performances
 * "The song was also successful on the Hot R&B/Hip Hop Songs chart where it peaked at number three for five consecutive weeks in February and March." — February and March, both or together? ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * "to number seventy-three on the UK Singles Chart on May 17, 2009 on downloads alone." "based on" downloads alone. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Diva" was never a single in the UK with "Sweet Dreams" being called the next UK single, following "Halo", however, it peaked at number seventy-two. — confusing. Rewrite. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Not fixed. And, that sentence sounds trivial to me. Novice7 (talk) 07:42, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

Now ✅


 * Music video
 * The screenshot has VEVO logo. Can you upload a one without the logo? ....... ✅ by Adabow
 * The opening definition of "diva" has been changed to feature the pronunciation of the word as "bē-yän-sá"; — if you mean "bē-yän-sá", it is the pronunciation of "Beyonce". Change the sentence. ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)


 * Track listing
 * Maybe "Formats and track listings"? ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)


 * References and links
 * Four dab links — Check ✅ Jivesh boodhun (talk) 18:55, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * No dead links


 * Media
 * Except for the screenshot, the media files are of fair quality and meets the standards.

Very well done! Needs fixes. Putting on Hold. Novice7 (talk) 16:56, 10 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Last, is the link to Myspace needed? I say just Beyonce's official website link is enough. Novice7 (talk) 07:42, 11 December 2010 (UTC) Now ✅
 * All done! Passing. Novice7 (talk) 08:04, 11 December 2010 (UTC)
