This peer review discussion has been closed. I've listed this article for peer review because I am hoping this list will eventually reach FL status. I created List of awards and nominations received by Rufus Wainwright and took it up to FL status, and I hope to do the same for this Amy Winehouse list. Any feedback would be appreciated before making this article a featured list candidate.

Comments from 
 * Amy Winehouse is an English singer and songwriter, known for her eclectic mix of various musical genres including soul, jazz, rock and roll and R&B.  - unlink English and the genres because they are common terms
 * Done.


 * Black to Black was issued under Island Records throughout the world, except under Universal Republic in the US. - throughout the world is WP:WEASEL IMO, can a specific geographical description be given instead?
 * Done - listed Europe, Asia, South America and Australia instead.


 * The first paragraph needs references to reliable sources, its unverifiable at the moment.
 * Comment - added Billboard singles chart source + sources citing chart positions for "Rehab" and "You Know I'm No Good". If acharts.us is not a reliable source, is there a list somewhere that displays reliable sources for song chart figures?


 * The purposes of the awards also need references to reliable sources as they are also unverifiable at the moment.
 * Comment - working on this!


 * The Elle Style, NME, Premios 40, Q , Urban , Vodafone , and Vibe awards all need a purpose as to why they are held
 * Comment - having a bit of trouble with the Premios 40 one, but the others are improving


 * The "Ivors" are the only annual event to honor the music writer.  - the tense this is in is in a way WP:POV, reword
 * Done - this has been removed. Not because I am not willing to re-word, but because I have no way of knowing if it is true or not (and really, it isn't even that relevant). There could be other awards that exist to honor songwriting. The statement was simply taken from the Ivor Novello Awards article, but I have removed it from the list here.


 * The Mercury Prize, formerly the Mercury Music Prize and currently known as the Nationwide Mercury Prize for sponsorship reasons, is an annual music prize awarded for the best album from the United Kingdom or Ireland. - unlink Ireland
 * Done.


 * Other than that, the list and refs check out fine.-- TRU    CO   15:04, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
