Review section
I am nominating this featured article for review because having previously tagged it as needing to be updated last year, I feel that its sources do not live up to current FA standards. Much of its contributors have not edited the article since 2008. 웃 O  O  00:44, 17 December 2022 (UTC)


 * Right away I'm seeing a lot of really bad stuff that would call for a speedy delist.


 * 1) The two maintenance tags alone should be a quick fail.
 * 2) "Personnel" is unsourced and overlinked (only uncommon instruments need linkage)
 * 3) Many of the sources (3, 5, 6, 7, 9, 10, 14, etc.) are incomplete, lacking page numbers or author info. What exactly is "Media Search"?
 * 4) "Australian Artist Albums Chart" peaks are unsourced
 * 5) Bonus disc track list should be sourced
 * 6) "Reception" is really choppy with a lot of one sentence paragraphs
 * 7) "Background" is only three sentences long; could this be expanded?

 * Delist, improvements have not happened. Sandy Georgia (Talk)  12:21, 10 January 2023 (UTC)

Looking through this:
 * Issue #1: the tags have been removed, and it was never really explained what needed updated here
 * Issue #2: Should be easily resolvable if anyone has the liner notes from a CD copy or something
 * Issues #3, #4, and #5 are problematic
 * Issue #6: I'm only seeing one one-sentence paragraph
 * Issue #7: If there's not much to say about the songwriting, this could probably be merged into the recording material

So I don't think the issues are quite as severe as have been portrayed, but work does need done here. The FAC nominator hasn't edited regularly since 2009, and given that nobody's showed up here to work on it, plus the fact that the last 50 edits go back to 2016, it looks like the work isn't going to occur, so delist I guess.

 * The article is not far from fulfilling the FAC criteria, but currently it needs work and no one is willing to step up to fix it, so delist for now and hopefully someone will make improvements and renominate at FAC later. Z1720 (talk) 19:32, 17 January 2023 (UTC)
