 * Do mention "See for Miles Records" in the lead.
 * ✅Done — sparklism hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * "which he had recorded in the late 1970s and early 1980s" - a little too off-topic for the lead of an article of this size.
 * ✅Done — sparklism hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * "did not sell well" - "did not perform well".
 * ✅Done — sparklism hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Is it possible to include the comment of Fay's father in the article?
 * I'm not quite sure what you mean here - could you clarify that please? Thanks! — sparklism hey! 20:01, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * "The album's title is derived from the song "Cosmic Concerto (Life Is People)", which refers to a comment made to Fay by his father during a childhood visit to the seaside." - so, can we have the original comment in the article?  Yash!  05:02, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Ah, I see. Well, the source doesn't actually contain Fay's father's quote, it simply says "When I was on holidays with my dad as a kid, we'd sit in seaside cafes and he'd watch people walking by. ... He was astonished at it and he would say, 'Life is people.'" - I've had a go at expanding the text slightly, how's that? — sparklism hey! 11:45, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
 * "was premiered on " - "premiered on"
 * ✅Done — sparklism hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * A brief summary of what "Médecins Sans Frontières" does would be good for the prose.
 * I had a bash at this - how's that? — sparklism hey! 20:00, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Awesome!  Yash!  05:02, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Link Neil McCormick.
 * ✅Done — sparklism hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Link Pitchfork
 * It's already linked in a previous section, so doesn't need linking again per WP:REPEATLINK. — sparklism hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Missed that!  Yash!  05:02, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
 * "Pitchfork" should be italicized if I am not missing anything.
 * ✅Done — sparklism hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * I am not entirely sure if Prefix magazine is a reliable source.
 * Wow, I am amazed to report that it's not included at WP:ALBUMS/SOURCES, but it wouldn't be the first time that a perfectly usable site has been overlooked. I'll start a discussion there to see if the community think it should be included (personally, I think it should). In the meantime, here is a short biography of the guy who wrote the review - I'm guessing the review counts as a reliable source in this case. What do you think? — sparklism hey! 19:55, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Yes, it does. Having a look again, and at the bio, this should count as a RS.  Yash!  05:02, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Use "National Public Radio" instead of "NPR" in the ref#4
 * ✅Done. I used that in the article text, too. — sparklism hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * It is Paste in ref#14 and Paste magazine in ref#3. Please be consistent.
 * ✅Done. Good spot! — sparklism hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
 * "Dead Oceans" should not be in italics.
 * ✅Done — sparklism hey! 19:47, 29 October 2015 (UTC)

Sorry for the delay. This is a good little article and there aren't any major issues. I will pass once the issues posted are addressed. Thanks,  Yash!  11:15, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
