Tragic Kingdom

 * Nominator(s): EA Swyer Talk Contributions 17:01, 6 September 2009 (UTC), User:Tezkag72

Well, I've finally got around to a third nomination. After a long wikibreak, Tezkag72 and I have resolved the comments brought up at the previous nominations. Tezkag will be along to add his name and comments soon. I'm nominating because I sincerely believe the article meets the criteria and I'll resolve any critism as soon as I can. Third time lucky?

 * Technical points: external links are fine, no links to disambiguation page. The one image is valid fair use but needs alt text. Stifle (talk) 12:38, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I've read WP:ALT and I don't know how to add the alt text to the album's infobox because the formatting is different from the examples given in WP:ALT. I'll try to find out. In the mean time, can someone help? -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 14:17, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Look at this article's infobox: Ghosts I–IV Spiderone  15:45, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Ah, thank you! Done the alt-text. -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 20:23, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I have no further objections and will support. Stifle (talk) 08:05, 10 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Links in quotations need to be removed per MOS:QUOTE and reviews in infobox should be sourced with citations to avoid linkrot per suggestion of the Album Wikiproject. Hekerui (talk) 14:15, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Done -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 14:46, 7 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Comment Shouldn't the second paragraph of the tour section have citations? bridies (talk) 09:37, 11 September 2009 (UTC).
 * I vagely remember the references being removed because the material wasn't likely to be challenged. I have added 4 citations anyway, which should cover everything. -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 12:28, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Support, looks good now. bridies (talk) 12:00, 15 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Comments -
 * What makes the following reliable sources?
 * http://www.34st.com/content/2009/apr/no-doubt-tragic-kingdom-1995
 * http://www.everyhit.com/
 * http://popdose.com/jesus-of-cool-talking-hot-100-blues-with-geoff-mayfield/
 * Otherwise, sources look okay, links checked out with the link checker tool. Ealdgyth - Talk 17:38, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
 * 34th Street is a magazine, from which I cite a review of the album. No facts are taken from it. The facts from popdose used to be cited from Billboard until their website revamp (and now I can't find or cite anything from it). Will replace everyhit with Chart Stats, which WP:GOODCHARTS lists as reliable. -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 23:16, 11 September 2009 (UTC)

UK chart positions now taken from Chart Stats. The facts taken from Popdose are from an interview with Billboard magazine's Director of Charts. I would cite directly from a page BB used to have on their website but their new website inspires expletives from me. -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 23:24, 11 September 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll leave this last one out for other reviewers to decide for themselves. Ealdgyth - Talk 12:33, 15 September 2009 (UTC)


 * Image review - The one image in the article, which is fair use, meets WP:NFCC. Awadewit (talk) 03:58, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Thank you. -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 11:33, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * No other images should be needed. Tezkag72 (talk) 23:40, 26 September 2009 (UTC)
 * Any other comments, anyone? -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 12:04, 2 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Support but shouldn't references such as 27, 29 and 30 be placed after the punctuation? Spiderone  08:46, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your support. Due to the large number of references citing chart positions, I have tried to place the refs as near to the information as possible so a reader knows which source to look up. Otherwise some sentences would have half a dozen references after the fullstop. -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 14:08, 3 October 2009 (UTC)


 * Has MOS changed its stance on discouraging the use of decorative quote marks and encouraging block quotes? Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 22:09, 3 October 2009 (UTC)
