Will pick this up for a review if that is alright with you. Aoba47 (talk) 18:39, 24 February 2020 (UTC)

Lead and infobox

 * I would avoid using the phrase, "the singer", when possible like in this part: (where the singer was also the episode's guest.) I would replace it with "she" in that instance.
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * For the lead's final sentence, I am uncertain if Christmas needs to be linked. I can understand your rationale for it, but one of my primary concerns is that it does look a little like a sea of blue even though there are only three links since the special's title is rather lengthy already.
 * Removed link. Carbrera (talk) 20:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * I have a question about this part: (It also appeared on the official airplay charts in Slovakia) Is there a Wikipedia article on the Slovakia airplay charts? When I searched on here, I did find this article, Rádio – Top 100 (Slovakia), but I am uncertain if this is the one being referenced in the lead.
 * You are correct; I did not know that article existed since the template does not produce a link to that. Interesting. Carbrera (talk) 20:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * This may seem like over-kill but I would clarify that the chart in this part, (The song entered the Holiday Digital Song Sales chart in the United States), is a Billboard chart.
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * I am uncertain if having a doo-wop melody is considered enough to have it listed as the genre in the infobox. It reminds me of past discussions that I have seen on Wikipedia where a song's influences were not considered strong enough on their own to be put into the infobox.
 * I removed the genre as "doo-wop" and switched it to "pop", which is stated in the Montgomery Advertiser publication you suggested below. Carbrera (talk) 20:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * Streaming is mentioned in the infobox, but not anywhere else in the article (either the lead or the body of the article).
 * Added. Carbrera (talk) 20:30, 29 February 2020 (UTC).

Background and recording

 * I would just say "the summer of 2017" for this part, (During the summer months of 2017, Gwen Stefani ), instead of "the summer months of 2017".
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * I would say "she" instead of "the singer" for this part: (to believe that the singer was releasing a Christmas-themed album.)
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * I would mention streaming here.
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * Since this section is somewhat covering the song's release, would it be beneficial to rename it to something like "Background and release" to cover this?
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:12, 29 February 2020 (UTC).

Composition and lyrics

 * I think you can paraphrase the quote in this part, (The staff at Rolling Stone described it as a "sixties-influenced" holiday song)
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:19, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * I do not think "several" is needed here: (Lyrically, the song mentions several seasonal activities)
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:19, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * I do not think the hyphen is necessary in the phrase "country singer" for this part: (by Stefani's relationship with country-singer Blake Shelton)
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:19, 29 February 2020 (UTC).

Reception

 * I would link Billboard here: (appeared on Billboard's Holiday Digital Song Sales component chart).
 * Linked. Carbrera (talk) 20:30, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * I was surprised that there was only review for this song here, but it seems to be largely overlooked in album reviews. This one, from the Montgomery Advertiser, could be helpful?
 * Added. Thanks for finding that source; I had to do my share of digging for this article so this was a nice surprise. Carbrera (talk) 20:30, 29 February 2020 (UTC).

Live performances

 * Would it be helpful to have a link to house band for this part: (by the Roots, the in-house band for the television series)? The Roots are even mentioned in the house band article.
 * Added. Carbrera (talk) 20:30, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * Again, I would remove instances of. "the singer".
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:30, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * It may be helpful to include a link for Nutcracker doll in this part: (Nutcracker-inspired uniform, complete with green sleeves and red bows)
 * Added. Carbrera (talk) 20:30, 29 February 2020 (UTC).


 * The word "eventually" is not really need for this part, (The performance from the televised special was eventually uploaded to the singer's official Vevo account on December 30, 2017), since the exact date is included in the sentence.
 * Corrected. Carbrera (talk) 20:30, 29 February 2020 (UTC).

Final comments

 * Great job with the article. I hope that my comments are helpful. Once everything is addressed, I will pass this. Aoba47 (talk) 19:56, 24 February 2020 (UTC)
