Reviewer: Lee Vilenski (talk · contribs) 14:17, 3 March 2021 (UTC)

Hello, I am planning on reviewing this article for GA Status, over the next couple of days. Thank you for nominating the article for GA status. I hope I will learn some new information, and that my feedback is helpful.

If nominators or editors could refrain from updating the particular section that I am updating until it is complete, I would appreciate it to remove a edit conflict. Please address concerns in the section that has been completed above (If I've raised concerns up to references, feel free to comment on things like the lede.)

I generally provide an overview of things I read through the article on a first glance. Then do a thorough sweep of the article after the feedback is addressed. After this, I will present the pass/failure. I may use strikethrough tags when concerns are met. Even if something is obvious why my concern is met, please leave a message as courtesy.

Best of luck! you can also use the ✅ tag to state when something is addressed.  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs)

Please let me know after the review is done, if you were happy with the review! Obviously this is regarding the article's quality, however, I want to be happy and civil to all, so let me know if I have done a good job, regardless of the article's outcome.

Immediate Failures

 * It is a long way from meeting any one of the six good article criteria -
 * It contains copyright infringements -
 * It has, or needs, cleanup banners that are unquestionably still valid. These include,, or large numbers of , , or similar tags. (See also ). -
 * It is not stable due to edit warring on the page. -

Links

 * Is the Vice article an RS? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Vice is okay to use for a GA nomination. If it was an FA nomination; it would not.


 * AllMusic is marginally reliable, why is it suitable in this case? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I've seen AllMusic be used in FA articles.


 * Same with the forbes article Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I'll remove Forbes since that is an unreliable source


 * And with Billboard music and E! Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Billboard is a high quality sources, and E! works fine too, as long as it is only for GA.


 * There is a YouTube video, YouTube is not a publisher. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I've been told by other editors who edit music articles that it is.
 * It is not a publisher. It is a webhost. You need to specify who the creator (channel) is. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:21, 18 March 2021 (UTC)

Lede

 * Is there actually a merge discussion ongoing? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 13:56, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes, I don't know where that is going...


 * No need to link Colombians. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 13:56, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Removed


 * Are the three refs in the lede needed? Can we not cite in the body? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 13:56, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Removed the sources from the lead.


 * trap artist - will need a link. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 13:56, 4 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Wikilinked Latin tap

General

 * In 2020 Karol G received 4 nominations at the Latin Grammys. - probably worth summarising her Latin Grammys in total, 8 nominations, 1 win etc. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * At age fourteen, she appeared on the Colombian version of The X Factor - probably worth saying what the name of the series was, which I understand is El Factor X. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * chose "Karol G" as her artistic name. - why? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Billboard Hot Latin Songs - should probably link Billboard. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Why does Artistry have a subsection of Musical style? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * yet sporty and tomboyish — but never [cutesy]" - source says "cute", any reason to change that? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * diamond wedding ring, confirming the couple's engagement - do you mean an engagement ring? Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * In July 2020, Karol G tested positive for COVID-19 - not entirely sure why this is worth mentioning. We wouldn't mention if she got the flu but was ok. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Medellín in early life is spelt wrong. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
