1. Is each fact referenced with an appropriate, reliable reference?: Every paragraph/sentence that contains a fact is followed by a reliable reference.

2. Is everything in the article relevant to the article topic? Is there anything that distracted you?: The article goes straight into facts and never strays from the topic unless it is the start of a new section/sub-topic. It is extremely straightforward and there were no points where I felt distracted or pulled from the topic.

3. Is the article neutral? Are there any claims, or frames, that appear heavily biased toward a particular position?: The article is very neutral. Any claims made are quotes/facts from Demi Lovato herself. For example, the article touches briefly on Lovato's support of gay rights. This is her own opinion and is therefore a fact rather than an opinion of the author.

4. Where does the information come from? Are these neutral sources? If biased, is that biased noted?: The sources are neutral and come from reliable websites.

5. Are there viewpoints that are overrepresented, or underrepresented?: There are a few sections that could be represented a bit more. The "Personal Life" section could use a little bit more information.

6. Check a few citations. Do the links work? Is there any close paraphrasing or plagiarism in the article?: Each link is in working order. Everything is referenced, and any direct quote is noted and given quotation marks.

7. Is any information out of date? Is anything missing that could be added?: The article continues to be updated and reviewed. There are many items on the talk page and work is still being done to constantly improve the article.

Replaceable fair use File:Photo of Jane Evelyn Atwood.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Photo of Jane Evelyn Atwood.jpg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:


 * 1) Go to the file description page and add the text   below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing   with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable.
 * 2) On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on [ this link]. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. B (talk) 01:01, 16 April 2015 (UTC)

Infobox template
Hi Chipotleismylife and welcome to Wikipedia. I wanted to let you know that you don't need to create a template to use an infobox - you can just place the infobox directly into the article. I have moved your infobox to your article draft - you can see my change at for future reference. Also, and I apologize for the incomprehensible template message above, Wikipedia does not permit photos of living people to be used under a claim of fair use (unless there is an extraordinary circumstance, such as someone who is in hiding). The theory is that as long as the person is alive, it is possible that someone could photograph them and release the photo under a free content license. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask at my talk page, or you can use the ping template to get my attention if you leave a message for me here. --B (talk) 01:07, 16 April 2015 (UTC)
