R U Professional

 * Nominator(s): &mdash; Cirt (talk) 21:42, 29 September 2015 (UTC)

"R U Professional" is an article about a satirical song and a form of parody music using sampling. After being promoted to WP:GA quality, the article had a peer review where I received helpful feedback from. Subsequently it went through a copy-edit from the kind folks at WikiProject Guild of Copy Editors. Then performed two more copy-editing passes, and I'm grateful to  for that assistance.

I appreciate your time and consideration, &mdash; Cirt (talk) 21:42, 29 September 2015 (UTC)

 * Support., thank you for submitting this article for FAC. Following my review, I find that it meets the criteria for FAC. I just had a few minor comments, and made a few minor tweaks to the inline citations and some wiki-links. -- West Virginian   (talk)  13:54, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

Comments by Maile
In the time it took me to read the article and check out the references, the two reviews above covered anything I probably would have touched on. I was wondering why there is not an image in the Infobox, but that doesn't affect my comments here. Personally, I think this was quite well-written, and the tone stayed neutral. The article appears to have stability. The sourcing, as far as any I'm familiar with, seem to be reputable. The style of inline citations is consistent throughout. Certainly well researched.

Comment by Tim riley
Just one comment, probably showing my ignorance of the pop field: is "the The AV Club" meant to have two definite articles? –  Tim riley  talk    21:04, 30 September 2015 (UTC)

Comments from John
Where we have "Bale was filming with actress Bryce Dallas Howard when he yelled at director of photography, Shane Hurlbut, for walking into his line of sight.", could we substitute "berated" for "yelled"? I was uneasy about "yelled" when I copyedited this all these months ago. Other than that, I think it looks good. --John (talk) 20:16, 4 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Done. Changed "yelled" to "berated", as suggested by, above. Thank you for your comments and your copyediting help, I think the article is much better for them. &mdash; Cirt (talk) 20:18, 4 October 2015 (UTC)


 * Support on a second read through. --John (talk) 20:17, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
 * Thanks very much for the Support and the copyediting assistance, most appreciated. &mdash; Cirt (talk) 20:26, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
