Pinkerton (album)
After much hard work, I finally think I got this article to FA status. I've added numerous sections, added tons of sources. The article is visually pleasing to the eye. It follows all the formats. Blah, Blah, Blah, Blah. Well, anyway...I hope it made it. cowbellcity45  talk  22:58, 1 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Support - Meets the criteria, as you said pleasing to the eye, interesting, and very well written overall. -- Shahid •  Talk 2 me  16:04, 3 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Support - Looks good. Well written.  sohmc 20:30, 16 October 2007 (UTC)

Comment: It's OK, but needs close scrutiny, preferably by someone who's fresh to the text.
 * I wonder who does own the copyright of the map.
 * "U.S.S Pinkerton"—dot missing. ✅ Dabomb87 02:45, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Ambiguous: "After finishing the record, the label's fear was put to rest that the band would be a flash in the pan after the success of the "Buddy Holly" video."
 * a "very brave record,' but worried "what sort of light does this put the band in? I could have been interpreted as them being a disposable pop band.'"—floating quote mark?
 * The label overall was pleased with the record and felt "no one's going to be disappointed" with the album. Why not cite the author of this phrase?✅
 * Geffen spokesman Dennis Dennehy, defended the title stating "to Weezer, Pinkerton is a character in Puccini's opera Madame Butterfly...It was not meant to be aimed at any sort of corporate entity."—Are the ellipsis dots yours or in the original. Presuming that they're yours, please see MOS on spacing. Check others, too. MOS breach concerning the final punctuation, here and elsewhere. Tony   (talk)  04:14, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
 * Support Cool, Well-written. FA quality.--Tamás Kádár 16:08, 23 October 2007 (UTC)

Remark
 * "most of them after a painful leg surgery; as a result, they were written in first-position on his guitar's fretboard so" I never seen many articles use semi-colon; perhaps rephrase the section. Learnedo 05:49, 27 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Minor MOS fixing needed throughout, and some citations are missing info, sample edits left.  Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 21:30, 27 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Support. Prose is a little jerky in some places, but nothing too serious. Good work. JimmyBlackwing 13:18, 31 October 2007 (UTC)


 * Support. References and writing quality both look good. (Ibaranoff24 13:34, 3 November 2007 (UTC))
