 * General
 * Please correct these external links.
 * Please convert the bare URLs that are currently used for citations into Template:Cite web.
 * Please remove the small text from the infobox; the text is already smaller than normal as it is.


 * Introduction
 * I'd like to see the introduction broadened to discuss some of the information that you've included in the "Background" section.
 * Wikilinks to SWRV and Music Choice Play would be helpful for readers.


 * Background
 * Is there enough information around to turn this section into a "History" and give some more background information? As it is, its coverage is pretty narrow.
 * To me, this section also comes across sounding like an advertisement.


 * Music Choice channels
 * I would suggest splitting most of this section off into a separate article titled "List of Music Choice channels". I don't think its necessary to have this entire list in the main article.
 * I also noticed that several of the references in this section redirect back to the main Music Choice website; those channel guides will need to be replaced with active links.
 * We'll also need appropriate references confirming that all of the defunct stations you list actually existed.


 * Music Choice On Demand
 * Same here, the citation in this section redirects back to the main Music Choice website.


 * Music Choice Online
 * Same here, the citation in this section redirects back to the main Music Choice website.
 * We'll also have to find citations for the former online stations that you've included in the article.


 * Mobile devices
 * Same here, the citation in this section redirects back to the main Music Choice website.


 * Also...
 * I think we need to have a section in the article that talks about SWRV and Music Choice Play, because as it is, this article and their own articles are very brief in their coverage. Also, could you describe the service in a bit more detail, because as it is currently written, I'm not quite sure what makes these two any different from the main Music Choice.
 * Are there any viewership numbers available? That would be important information to include.
 * I'd also like to see some kind of critical reception if there is any for this kind of service.

I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I'm going to have to fail this article. In its current form, it is much too narrow in its coverage; it's pretty much just a list of the channels with some small tid-bits of other information. It also looks like the article is based largely off of the main Music Choice website, which is not allowed because a) we need secondary sources to verify some of this information, and b) the ones we have are all dead. I definitely encourage you to keep working on the article, the extra efforts will be worth it when you bring this back to GAN in the future! WikiRedactor (talk) 20:04, 15 December 2013 (UTC)
