Hello, I'm  Azealia 911  talk  and I'll be reviewing this article against the good article criteria. , I'm happy to tell you that I can't see any areas of the article that call for an immediate failure, so I'll be fully reviewing this article within the next day. Honestly, I'm not sure if you'll be able to get it up to passing standard within the seven day on-hold period, but I'd love you to prove me wrong. Comments to come soon!

Here's my review, as you can see, I've split the article up into sections that mimic the articles layout, for ease. Any green text indicates I'm quoting from the article.

Lead

 * Unlink vocalist
 * Remove which was released worldwide on November 24, 2014

Infobox

Background and composition

Critical response

 * This section is one large quote farm, try trimming down the large POPSHOCK quote.

Music video

 * It was directed by Stan during a week with just one camera. needs citation.

Credits and personnel

 * As opposed to having the source next to only one name, the ref that backs this section up should have a note at the top that reads something like:
 * Credits for "Vanilla Chocolat" adapted from the official video's credits[8].

Track listings

 * The digital download single needs a source.

Re review
Re-reviewing this after being notified that improvements had been Incorporated into the article.


 * josepvinaixa is an unreliable source.
 * A fan's tweet is even more unreliable, meaning that a large majority of the information presented in 'Background and composition' is still unsourced.
 * The quotes from POPSHOCk are still too large.
 * Per WP:NOENG, non-English references should be quoted in their original language, then followed by an English translation.

I'm not even sure if there's enough reliable, third party sources out there to make this article much more than a stub. At this point, there seems to be too many issues with sourcing within the article, and therefore I am failing this article. Thankyou for your work on it up to now, and it has improved from when I started the review, but after searching I just can't find enough reliable information that proves that this song is even notable, let alone does it have enough information to qualify it for GA. Feel free to address my final comments and re-nominate, at which point I'll let another editor review it, you'll be glad to hear. Best,  Azealia 911  talk  15:05, 4 September 2015 (UTC)
