GA Review

 * The article is over wikilinked (my constant complaint). Per WP:CONTEXT, years and months and such, when they are by themselves, should not be linked. I will remove a few.


 * You must have a consistent standard for formatting references. See WP:Citation templates and scroll down to where the templates xxx are. Or go to Template:Cite book. WP:Footnote gives an over all explanation. The issue is to choose a format and be consistent in the article. Always provide the publisher. And when you have a page range e.g. pp.56-67, you must use the pp. The single p. is for a single page.


 * Otherwise, I think this is a well-written concise article that wonderfully covers the subject matter. Very good.


 * I might worry about the use of Fair use images. Usually two well-justified ones are allowed in an article (rough rule). The album covers should not be a problem. (Although having two might.) I personally think the images enhance the article. But it is something to think about.


 * I fixed the footnoting problem, I think. So really, I think this article fits the criteria of a GA.


 * In the sentence: "As the songs provided the "country & western" foundation for the album, the musical arrangements represented the "modern" component" I would advise removing the scare quotes around country and western and modern, as quotes for no reason are frowned up.

I fixed the sentence and got rid of the cite webs.Dan56 (talk) 16:27, 22 August 2008 (UTC)


 * But why is Country & Western in italics? And shouldn't it be country and western (& is not encyclopedia unless that is a title, and I it doesn't seem to be a title)? And why is "modern" in quotes?

My bad; its now fixed Dan56 (talk) 17:14, 22 August 2008 (UTC)
