I will conduct a full review of the article on Wednesday. Statυs (talk) 02:12, 19 June 2012 (UTC)

Lead

 * The song received mostly positive reviews from music critics and was praised by some for its highly dark subject matter and Ocean's singing talent. --> The song received generally positive reviews from music critics, who praised Ocean's vocals and the song's dark subject matter.

Changed.
 * When Nostalgia, Ultra was expected to be released as an EP by Def Jam, "Swim Good" was released as the second single, though the EP release was later cancelled. --> This really has no relevance to the article, especially since the first sentence simply states: released as the second single from his mixtape Nostalgia, Ultra (2011).

Removed.


 * #70 - number 70

Doe.


 * Should specify that Billboard is a U.S. chart. Not everybody knows this. Billboard should also be linked.

Done.


 * The song received a music video directed by Australian director Nabil Elderkin released on September 16. --> Very awkwardly worded. I don't think the date the video was released in particularly relevant, considering the release date of the single itself wasn't even mentioned.

Date removed.


 * Ocean performed the track during his seven show tour through North America and Europe. --> When?

Added.

Background

 * I made the adjustments here myself, as I didn't find them to be anything major.

Thank you!

Content

 * Lyrical content or Composition would be a much more appropriate title.

Suggestion applied.


 * Sample is too long. According to its length, it should be around 25 seconds.

New sample added.

Music video

 * How about merging this with live performances and just call it promotion? The sections are rather small. This is just a suggestion.

Merged.

Chart performance

 * This little sentence could be just included in reception, as there is critical reception and public reception (which would be a song charting). This, too, is just a suggestion.

Done.

Verdict

 * Everything looks good to me. Great work! Passing the article. Statυs  (talk) 19:23, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
