Lead

 * Guiding questions

Yes, it does introduce the article's topic and not really a brief description. It is a long introduction. The Lead also introduces more information about the topic and it is too detailed for some information.


 * Does the Lead include an introductory sentence that concisely and clearly describes the article's topic?
 * Does the Lead include a brief description of the article's major sections?
 * Does the Lead include information that is not present in the article?
 * Is the Lead concise or is it overly detailed?

Content

 * Guiding questions

Yes, it does while introducing the background of the topic and even this was a song that was published in 2011 but there is some editors still adding information this year. From this article, it has all basic content and it does not deal with equity gap and has nothing to do with the opinion of underrepresented populations.


 * Is the article's content relevant to the topic?
 * Is the content up-to-date?
 * Is there content that is missing or content that does not belong?
 * Does the article deal with one of Wikipedia's equity gaps? Does it address topics related to historically underrepresented populations or topics?

Tone and Balance

some parts of the article sound neutral but not all, i would say the whole article was edited by different people with different opinion.


 * Is the article neutral?

Not all sources are from a trustable website and even mixed with some information with same name but different context.


 * Are all facts in the article backed up by a reliable secondary source of information?
 * Are the sources thorough - i.e. Do they reflect the available literature on the topic?
 * Are the sources current?
 * Are the sources written by a diverse spectrum of authors? Do they include historically marginalized individuals where possible?
 * Check a few links. Do they work?

Organization

 * Guiding questions

It is not easy to read while it is having too much introductory and so far, i didnt see any grammar mistake but they are splits into different section but not a good organization.


 * Is the article well-written - i.e. Is it concise, clear, and easy to read?
 * Does the article have any grammatical or spelling errors?

 * Are the images laid out in a visually appealing way?

 * How is the article rated? Is it a part of any WikiProjects?
 * How does the way Wikipedia discusses this topic differ from the way we've talked about it in class?

Overall impressions

 * Guiding questions

It is a B-class, then it is a full detail article with a strong background. it would be more complete if they listed more countries' weekly chart in that year but overall still a well developed article.
