Superfly discography

 * Nominator(s): Prosperosity (talk) 10:06, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it satisfies the FL criteria. Prosperosity (talk) 10:06, 12 December 2015 (UTC)

*The discography of Japanese musical act Superfly consists of five studio album → Japanese band Superfly has released...
 * Comment by an IP
 * Sales (JPN) → Sale (Japan) (hmmm...I think so!)
 * Ref. →

That's all! 42.112.232.105 (talk) 07:11, 19 December 2015 (UTC)
 * 'Band' implies multiple members, but Superfly has only a single member at the moment, so I don't know if that's really appropriate! I've made all of the other changes. --Prosperosity (talk) 09:03, 19 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Support ~– Well done, Prosperosity.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 10:36, 30 December 2015 (UTC)

*discography of Japanese musical act -> discography of Japanese rock group
 * Comments by Cartoon network freak
 * Lead
 * Superfly releases music in several genres, and I'd need additional sources for the genre.


 * three compilation albums -> three compilations
 * 'Compilation albums' is the category listed at the side, so it should be consistent!


 * twenty-seven singles -> 27 singles
 * All of the numbers in the prose should be a consistent style (either figures or written in full), and as there are many small figures it's better for these to be written out.


 * Superfly began as a musical unit formed in 2003 by vocalist Shiho Ochi and guitarist Koichi Tabo and signed with Warner Music Japan in 2007. -> Superfly debuted as a musical act in 2003, being formed by Shiho Ochi and guitarist Koichi Tabo. Afterwards, they signed to Warner Music Japan in 2007.
 * Debuted implies a label and a release, which didn't happen for five years later, and I don't think we say "being formed by" when talking about bands, only like geological processes and things like that, but I've made the sentence a little bit shorter.


 * Tabo removed himself from the band's line-up in 2007 during promotional activities for their single "I Spy I Spy", finding it difficult to work as both the band's songwriter and guitarist. -> Tabo leaved the band's line-up in 2007 during the releasing process of their promotional single "I Spy I Spy", finding it difficult to work as both the band's songwriter and guitarist.
 * I've simplified that part.


 * Tabo remained attached -> However, Tabo remained attached
 * Done.


 * Superfly, composing -> Superfly, with it composing
 * Tabo is a man, and "with him composing" doesn't sound right to me.


 * for the unit, until -> for the unit until
 * Done.


 * sing the theme song for the Misaki Ito-starring drama Edison no Haha, entitled "Ai o Komete Hanataba o". -> sing the theme song for Misaki Ito-starring drama, Edison no Haha, entitled "Ai o Komete Hanataba o".
 * Already changed above.


 * The track became commercially successful in Japan, with it being eventually certified Million for digital downloads by the RIAJ.
 * The band's debut album Superfly (2008), released three months later, debuted at number one on the Japanese Oricon albums chart. -> The band's debut album, Superfly (2008), was released three months later and debuted at number one on the Japanese Albums Chart.
 * Done.


 * saw continued success -> saw continuous success
 * Removed.


 * their releases between 2008 and 2013 -> their subsequent releases
 * That means all later releases, but White only got to number two.


 * on Oricon's albums chart. -> in Japan
 * There are two major charts in Japan, Oricon and Billboard, so it needs to be clarified.


 * certified Double Platinum -> certified 2x Platinum
 * All the numbers in the prose should be consistently written in full or consistently use numbers, so 'Double Platinum' is probably better!


 * Superfly has -> Superfly achieved
 * Done.


 * song "Wildflower" -> song, "Wildflower"
 * Done. --Prosperosity (talk) 07:36, 30 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Further comments (@Prosperosity)
 * The headers are not correctly used, nor is the article sorted in an appropriate way, use Hilary Duff discography as an example as to how we use headers in discographies.
 * Done.


 * Remove all appearances of "(JPN)" in the tables, they're unnecessary.
 * Done.


 * Sales (Japan) -> Sales; 510,000 -> JPN: 510,000 and so on. E.G, don't forget to link the first use of JPN to Recording Industry Association of Japan.
 * RIAJ don't release sales; these sales are sourced from Oricon. But otherwise, done.


 * The release dates of albums (compliation, DVD...) need to be accompanied by an iTunes or JVC link to prove their release (see Inna discography).
 * They are; the Oricon link for albums and singles positions features a detailed list all of the original release dates, meaning additional citations for this data isn't necessary. For all releases not included in the link, I've already included additional citations.


 * The songs need to be accompanied by an iTunes or JVC link toprove their release. (again, see Inna discography as an example).
 * As above; but with additional sources for non-physically released singles.


 * The translations of singles are unnecessary.
 * Not according to WP:MJ's advice on using Japanese script in lists. Can you explain why this is not necessary for an article dealing with a non-English topic?


 * The use of N/A is partially wrong (see Inna discography). --Cartoon network freak (talk) 12:14, 31 December 2015 (UTC)
 * Fixed. --Prosperosity (talk) 02:56, 6 January 2016 (UTC)

Note/Hint/etc. - I have my own FLC Candidate Mexican National Lightweight Championship and I figured giving is the best way of getting feedback.

Comments
 * Lead
 * Looking at MOS:FOREIGN I believe the Japanese song titles such as "Ai o Karada ni Fukikonde" should be in italics
 * Speaking of, may I suggest that each song title has the English translated afterwards ("Yada-Yada" in English) or something to that effect.
 * Not sure what "certified Million" means for download - is there perhaps an appropriate link?
 * RIAJ should be spelled out the first time it's used
 * NHK should either be spelled out or at least specified that it's a Japanese tv channel.


 * Table
 * The Extended Plays list really sticks out as having a totally different format. why is that?
 * Also there are a lot of non-"Discography" in the list, is that normal in articles labelled as "Discography"??


 * Sources
 * Barks - Reliable source as per WP:RS?
 * natalie.mu - Reliable?
 * Spaceshower.com - Reliable?

This is the first Discography list I have reviewed so I don't know what the standards are, but in general it looks good, close o FL. MPJ  -US 02:03, 23 January 2016 (UTC)

Unfortunately, after 2 months this nomination has only received one support, and the nominator hasn't returned to address the latest review after several weeks. Closing as not promoted. -- Pres N  19:59, 11 February 2016 (UTC)
