 * Grabbing for a review if that is okay with you. Aoba47 (talk) 01:27, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Lead and infobox
 * Please provide ALT text for the infobox image.

 * I would break up the first sentence of the first paragraph into two separate sentence. The second half of the sentence (i.e. released on 25 April 2018 in digital and physical formats by Alexandra Stan Records and Victor Entertainment) can be misread as applying to the phrase “Alexandra Stan” as opposed to the album.

 * I would revise “For this record” to “For the record” to avoid the use of “this”.

 * For this part (where she also relocated with her boyfriend in September 2017), I do not believe the “also” part is necessary.
 * ✅ Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC)


 * I would simplify this sentence (The singer also elaborated on the album's title, which, according to her, represents her feminity and artistic maturity.) to (The singer also said that the album’s title represetns her feminity and artistic maturity.)

 * The reference for the producer parameter in the infobox is not necessary as this information should be cited in the body of the article.
 * ✅ I removed the ref. Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Background and release
 * Is there any information about the album receiving a wider release? It is tough for independently released albums to get this sort of information, but I just want to make sure.
 * The album will probably receive a release in other countries as well, but it was only released in Italy apart from Japan as of now. I will update the article with further releases once this is the case. Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Composition and promotion
 * Weren’t the first two singles self-released? Why is the link saved for the third single?
 * ✅ Removed the link. Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:13, 1 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Any updates on whether or not “India” was released as a single? This part and the infobox need to be updated.
 * There is no update on that, but I removed it from the article. I realized that the website was not really confirming it though. Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Any word on other promotional appearances and live performances/tours for the album?
 * No, sadly. Really no information after a few Google researches. Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Any information on the Japanese tour?
 * We just know it took place, but there is no source reporting about the exact dates or such. Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC)


 * The article does not include information on the album’s commercial performance in the prose. It is in the lead and the charts table, but it also needs to be in the prose of the article too.
 * I'm hesitating about including this in the article's body, as it's just one tiny sentence that does not fit in any section. Isn't the "Charts" section part of the article's body as well? I could include this somewhere if you want me to, but I think this really fits nowhere. Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Any critical reviews for the album? The article includes nothing about this.
 * It may seem odd that I repeatedly say "no", but there also weren't any reviews of the album. Not even a tiny paragraph about it in any website. Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Credits and personnel
 * If you have this information, there should be a section for this in the article.
 * All we have is the writers of the songs and a list of producers, which however does not tell use who produced which song. Also, writers and producers should not be named in the "Credits and personnel" section (for albums at least), as already mentioned in "Track listing".


 * Final comments
 * Good work with the article. Once my comments are addressed, I will pass this. I still have not listened to this album tbh. I should check it out soon. Aoba47 (talk) 03:35, 1 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Hi there and thank you very much for reviewing my article! I responded to your comments above. Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:09, 1 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Verdict
 * Thank you for addressing everything! Hopefully, more information will become available for the album. It is a shame that it seems to have been mostly overlooked; it is probably since it was independently released and Stan's popularity has apparently gone down. Good job with this! I will ✅ this.
