Marshmello discography

 * Nominator(s): Flooded  with them hundreds  12:18, 17 December 2018 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because it meets the FL criteria. Flooded  with them hundreds 12:18, 17 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Comments
 * "Despite gaining a momentum in Marshmello's career at that point," - I don't really understand what this means? Does it mean the album was critically acclaimed?  That it sold well (presumably not if it didn't enter the album chart)?
 * "failed to imitate the success of its predecessor as it had not charted on any chart" => "failed to imitate the success of its predecessor as it did not appear on any chart"
 * "One of his most successful career-singles" => "One of his most successful singles" ("career-single" is not a thing)
 * "became his highest-charting song on the Billboard Hot 100 until October 2018" => "became his highest-charting song on the Billboard Hot 100 at this point"
 * ""Wolves", topped the charts in Latvia, Poland and Hungary" - need a source for it reaching number 1 in those countries given that they aren't listed in the table
 * That's it for now.......... -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 08:39, 19 December 2018 (UTC)
 * ✅. Flooded  with them hundreds 09:31, 19 December 2018 (UTC)


 * Comments from MaranoFan
 * I don't think the alt text for the image needs a date
 * Why is he introduced as an "electronic dance music producer" on here but an "electronic music producer" on his bio? I suggest removing the word "dance" here too and linking the genre
 * "Despite failing to debut on the Billboard 200, the album peaked on three Billboard charts" -- Why do we need to mention that it "failed to debut" on anything? Its not a given that an album will chart somewhere so this should be removed. The word "peaked" may be better replaced by "charted"
 * Mention that "Keep It Mello" featured Omar Linx in the lead
 * "His follow-up single "Colour" failed to imitate the success of its predecessor as it did not appear on any chart" -- Again, this is a little too much detail and I doubt there's any source that explicitly states that it didn't make any charts, similarly, I also doubt there's any source that calls KIM successful. This whole sentence should be replaced by something as simple as ""Colour" was released as his second single"
 * "The song was also certified platinum in both Canada (Music Canada) and the United States (RIAA)" -- No song he released before these was certified in both countries so the word "also" should be removed
 * "Marshmello's following seven singles, which are collaborations with artists such as Far East Movement, Ookay and Slushii, failed to appear on the Billboard Hot 100." -- Again, just remove the fact that they didn't chart anywhere and just mention the people he collaborated with
 * "R&B singer Khalid" -- Replace R&B with his nationality
 * "while four of his subsequent singles failed to appear on the chart" -- Again, we should focus on what charted instead of what didn't
 * "The album became his first to debut on the Billboard 200" -- Replace this sentence with something like "The album debuted at number 165 on the Billboard 200". You've already mentioned it before that his previous album didn't chart
 * "His next single is a song with the British band Bastille, titled "Happier"" -- Change this to something like "Happier", featuring British band Bastille, was released as his next single"
 * No need for a hyphen in "highest-charting"
 * I'm gonna oppose this. Its not even slightly close to the prose quality required for an FL. The lead section is too bloated for an artist as new as Marshmello, and it puts more emphasis on how most of his songs failed to chart rather than his hits. It needs to be trimmed down considerably and some more emphasis needs to be put on "Friends" and "Happier". Regards.-- N Ø  19:12, 10 January 2019 (UTC)


 * Thanks for letting the people here know of my absence but I do not wish to proceed with this nomination as there is plenty to be done. I'd like to withdraw.--  Flooded with them hundreds 18:18, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
