I will get on with this one fully today! --K. Peake 07:03, 6 July 2022 (UTC)

Infobox and lead

 * Should the amount of points be listed in the infobox?
 * Only if they qualified per documentation. Grk1011 (talk) 15:41, 6 July 2022 (UTC)


 * Maybe add "and performed by Argo." at the end of the first sentence instead, making the second only a mention of the selection for the 2016 contest in Stockholm?
 * "on 9 February 2016, while their song" → "in February 2016, a month before their song" removing the 10 March part from the end of the sentence
 * "a music video for the song" → "a music video for "Utopian Land"" with the wikilink
 * Pipe introduction of semi-finals to Semi-finals in the Eurovision Song Contest per MOS:LINK2SECT

 * "The new ERT then confirmed their intentions" → "ERT then confirmed Greece's intentions" to be less monotonous
 * "at the 2016 Eurovision Song Contest" → "at the Eurovision Song Contest 2016" with the wikilink
 * Most of the last para is not backed up by the Wiwibloggs source
 * "while the last time the nation selected" → "while the last time Greece chose"

Internal selection

Final comments and verdict

 * until all of the issues are fixed; my main problem is the original research level. --K. Peake 08:54, 6 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Thank you for another in depth review! I have made all of the changes you've requested, with a couple comments above. Please let me know if you catch anything else. Grk1011 (talk) 14:08, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
 * You still haven't removed the overlink of European Broadcasting Union that I mentioned twice. --K. Peake 07:09, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
 * That's not a GA requirement or a requirement at all per WP:OVERLINK: Citations stand alone in their usage, so there is no problem with repeating the same link in many citations within an article; e.g. |work=The Guardian. Grk1011 (talk) 13:11, 8 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Why are you inconsistent with wikilinking them in this article if this is the case? Also, ref 3 needs a publisher. --K. Peake 09:16, 9 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Should be all set now. Mistakes can happen when you're requested to fix things that aren't wrong; they don't stand out like actual errors. Thanks again for such a detailed review! Grk1011 (talk) 12:49, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * It seems strange that this is a persisting issue, but sources like European Broadcasting Union and WiwiBloggs aren't consistently wikilinked; the overlinking does not matter, rather that it seems to be done randomly... --K. Peake 21:32, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * No, I typically link all of them consistently. Grk1011 (talk) 23:13, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
 * This is not fully consistent though, like refs 25, 29, 30 and 36 not wikilinking the EBU article for instance. --K. Peake 07:34, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Did a final read through. Looks consistent now. Let me know if anything remains. Thanks. Grk1011 (talk) 13:43, 12 July 2022 (UTC)
 * ✅ now, don't see any remaining issues! --K. Peake 09:32, 13 July 2022 (UTC)
