Courtney Love

 * Nominator(s): Drown Soda (talk) 02:53, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

This article is about musician and actress Courtney Love. I have done a great deal of work on this over a period of years, and have refined the citations and bibliography immensely to bring it to standard (especially being such a contentious topic). I hope you will consider the article. Drown Soda (talk) 02:53, 9 November 2015 (UTC)

Comment: I'm not able to review, but I notice three uncited sentences occurring at paragraph ends. See 1998–2002 second paragraph, 2012–present third paragraph, and the final sentence of the Cultural Impact section. These should be fixed to conform with FAC standards. I hope you get a full review soon. Brianboulton (talk) 15:24, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the input-- I just added appropriate citations to those statements. I appreciate it! —Drown Soda (talk) 19:00, 16 November 2015 (UTC)

Comments - taking a look now. I will make straightforward copyedits as I go and jot questions below: Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 04:00, 17 November 2015 (UTC)


 *  Love debuted a new solo single in early 2014 - "released" ..."debuted" would mean a first one surely....


 * "moniker" for mine is a tad too informal for an encyclopedic article....but I am having trouble thinking of an alternative...

Source review - make sure all ref titles are in sentence case or title case..not a mix of the two.


 * Comment: it certainly is rich with material and the prose seems fine, but I can't say it satisfies the requirement for comprehensiveness since it doesn't cover the well publicized "air rage" incident in 2003, nor the earlier arrest in 1995 for a separate incident with a flight attendant, and it doesn't appear to mention her 2004 arrest for exposing herself on the David Letterman show. There's more as well: you could probably have a couple of paragraphs about her legal difficulties. There's an error in the references for the '24hours' tag. Otherwise, I say it's pretty close to satisfying the FA criteria. She certainly has led a full life. Praemonitus (talk) 20:06, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

Closing comment -- sorry but having remained open nearly a month the prospects of this achieving consensus to promote any time soon are very remote, so I'll be archiving it shortly. Pls take on board the comments above before considering a renomination. Cheers, Ian Rose (talk) 07:29, 6 December 2015 (UTC)
