Amarte Es un Placer (album)

 * Nominator(s): Erick (talk) 17:00, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

My last FAC failed because of the lack of activity. Before re-nominating, I had a member of GOCE do another copy-edit. I look forward to addressing any concerns on the article. Erick (talk) 17:00, 30 July 2019 (UTC)

Great work with the article, and I am glad that you re-nominated it for the FAC. I only have two relatively nitpicky comments as I had commented during the first and second FAC. Hopefully, this nomination will receive more feedback. If you have the time, I would greatly appreciate any feedback on my current FAC? Either way, have a great rest of your day!

 * I am a little confused by this part (it is a pop album with R&B, pop ballad, and jazz influences) because "pop ballad" is not really a genre of music like pop, R&B, and jazz. I am not sure if "pop ballad" is really necessary in this part, and I think it could be removed without losing any information.
 * The infobox says the album is pop and R&B, but the lead says it is a pop album with R&B influences. R&B influences is not the same as a fully R&B album so there is a slight inconsistency there. The body of the article says that it is just a pop album, i.e. (is a pop album composed of twelve love songs), so I think the best course of action is to just remove "R&B" from the infobox.
 * , I went ahead and removed the unnecessary tidbits as you've suggested on your comments. If I have time tomorrow and don't feel too tired from work, I'll try to address your FAC. Erick (talk) 02:35, 4 August 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you for addressing everything. I support this for promotion. Great work with it! Aoba47 (talk) 02:46, 4 August 2019 (UTC)

Coordinator notes
I've placed this on the Urgents list but it will need to be archived soon (again, unfortunately) unless it receives some more attention. -- Laser brain  (talk)  12:27, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
 * Looks like some good progress has been made here. I see the article had a source review during its first nomination in December 2017. Have sources changed since then? -- Laser brain  (talk)  14:23, 16 September 2019 (UTC)
 * A few more sources have been added, but no major changes. I can't see any obvious format/quality issues, and I'd be inclined to let this go. Brianboulton (talk) 16:18, 16 September 2019 (UTC)

I'll be reviewing this over the next few days. I hope Erick won't mind me mentioning this, but he told me last week that he was in the path of Hurricane Dorian. The bulk of the hurricane avoided Florida, but it still caused some significant power outages. Hopefully the end of my review will coincide with his eventual and safe return. ;) Homeostasis07 (talk/contributions) 23:35, 6 September 2019 (UTC) The hurricane didn't do much as I live in inland, but thank you for your kind words and for taking the time to review the article. Hopefully I'll do yours Tuesday. Erick (talk) 14:54, 7 September 2019 (UTC)

Lead
 * It was released by the record label WEA Latina on 13 September 1999. - fairly obvious that WEA Latina is a record label, so consider changing to "It was released by WEA Latina on 13 September 1999.
 * and was assisted by other composers - I don't think "other" is needed there.
 * Despite the popularity of his contemporaries like Ricky Martin - I don't think "like" is needed there.

Background

'Composition

Singles
 * Link Danny Saber
 * The correct name of the music video director for "O Tú o Ninguna" appears to be Rebecca Blake, not Rebeca Blake. Also, the URL for ref #5 ("Biografía de Luis Migueis") is dead, and the archive-url isn't working (for me, anyway). So you should change this ref's "dead-url" to "yes", and replace the "archive-URL" to either this (which is very slow to load) or this (which was much faster).


 * 'Promotion' and 'Critical reception' are the two largest sections, so I'll come to those with a clear head tomorrow. Should point out now that I skipped ahead to both 'Accolades' and 'Commercial performance', and saw nothing to nit-pick about in either.

Critical reception

I supported the previous nomination and have re-read the article with the new comments that were brought up by reviewers on this nomination. I believe the article is FA worthy now. Best – jona  ✉ 16:26, 15 September 2019 (UTC)
