 * Lead
 * Copy-edited parts of the lead.
 * Stay consistent with which version of English you use. (i.e, "favorable" and "favourable")
 * "Lyrically, the song is about Shakira expressing her erratic and obsessive behaviour towards her lover, more so than his other leading lady,[2] prominently heard in the lines "She'd die for your love / But your love's only mine, boy" and "I'm crazy but you like it"." — Move the reference in this sentence to the end.

 * Critical reception
 * Again, stay consistent with what English you use. (i.e., "favorable" and "complement".)
 * Link Digital Spy.
 * Who is Pitbull? (I know who he is, but provide information for the uninvolved reader. "American rapper" should do.)

 * Commercial performance
 * "On the week of September 18, 2010 the song debuted at number 40 on the Billboard Tropical Songs..." — Add a comma after September 18, 2010.
 * Spell out "1" per WP:ORDINAL.
 * Thanks for telling this to me. I'll take care next time I edit song articles :) --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 08:33, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

 * "and number 1 on digital tropical charts with great selling of 6000+ downloads." — "great selling" sounds a little to much on the WP:FANCRUFT side. Perhaps, "strong digital sells" would do better?
 * "On the week of September 25, 2010 the song debuted at number 31 on the Billboard Latin Songs and reached its peak position at number 1." — Add a comma after September 25, 2010. Also, added when it reached its peak position. "1" needs to be written out per WP:ORDINAL.
 * The Billboard link was dead here and I couldn't find any archive. I had to remove all the date information as a result since Allmusic doesn't specify it. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 08:33, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

 * "On the week of October 14, 2010 "Loca" debuted at number 98 on Billboard Hot 100." — Add a comma after October 14, 2010.
 * Link Billboard Hot 100.
 * "The song has become Shakira's ninth number-one hit on the Billboard Hot Latin Songs and her thirteenth number 1 hit on the Latin Pop Songs, making her the second female artist with most number-one hits after Gloria Estefan (14) on the former and the female artist with most on the latter." — All numbers under ten must be written out per WP:ORDINAL.
 * Why is the information about "Loca"'s debut, peak and sales separated?
 * "On the week of September 27, 2010 the song debuted at number 10 in Spain and at number 25 in Italy." — Add a comma after September 27, 2010.

 * Music video
 * The music video was released on September 29, 2010 and the Spanish version of the video was released as the free video of the week on iTunes on December 21, 2010. — Which version was released on September 29, 2010? Also, where is the source(s) to confirm this?
 * "Shakira performed the song with Dizzee Rascal for the first time on the MTV EMA 2010 on November 7, 2010." — How could Shakira have performed the song with Dizzee Rascal for the first time on the MTV EMA 2010 on November 7, 2010 if above you state she performed it first on September 23, 2010? Also, EMA should be spelled out.
 * Actually what the sentence meant was that they performed the song together for the first time. So I tweaked it. ✅ --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 08:33, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

 * Okay I'm almost done. But I have a problem with the unreliable sources since the ref order has changed. Can you please copy paste the entire foot note text for me? I'm really sorry for increasing your work. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 05:54, 21 June 2013 (UTC)
