A featured article currently going through a Featured article review. Like a lot of music articles on wiki it suffers from journalese, most of which have tried to remove, but help would be gratefully appreciated. Ceoil (talk) 14:35, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

 * @Apollogetticax, when are you going to work on this article? Mox Eden  (talk) 12:13, 8 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Oh, I'm sorry. I am currently on wikibreak, but when I'm back (excpect another few days), I'll get to it. Apollo getticax  | talk  16:50, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi, do you still intend to copy-edit this article or can we strike your working tag? Cheers,  Baffle☿gab  02:01, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
 * No, I decided I need more experience with worse articles, like those in the backlog, since they are lower quality and I can find the mistakes quicklier. I may come back to do it once I feel I am ready, but for now you can strike the tag. Apollo getticax  | talk  02:06, 18 July 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks Apollogetticax, I've struck the tag. This request is now open to all. Cheers,  Baffle☿gab  23:15, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

I was hoping to take this through FAC. It was closed pretty quickly and suggested that I bring it through here and potentially PR first. I'd appreciate anyone willing to give it a copy edit so that I can eventually work back towards that process. The Doctor Who (talk) 18:25, 4 May 2024 (UTC)

Looking to nominate this article in the future. It has a non-standard format for a series; some other editors have developed tables to give an overview of the anthology aspect and I've tried to improve upon them but another set of eyes on readability would be great.

I rewrote this article completely over the last few years. Since English is not my mother tongue and considering this is a very important article, I would like to request a review to correct any grammatical errors or weird phrasal constructions that may have gone unnoticed. I still plan to expand some sections of the article, such as the legacy section, but considering the wait time, I will have everything finished by then. BCN. Torimem (talk) 22:47, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Toms River
Spent a good amount of time expanding and cleaning up this article. It failed a GA nomination, mostly due to me being unable to address fixes needed in a timely manner. I've fleshed it out a bit more since then and am hoping someone can give it a good fine-toothing before I nominate again (GAN). Thank you in advance for any help/consideration!

Phillip Jeong
This is my second article on Wikipedia, and I am enjoying the whole process of collective intelligence. Please help me improve it. I've written the above article and believe I am close to completing it with all the necessary records and citations. As someone who collects historic performances to write articles on Wikipedia, I find it challenging to find detailed critiques in Korea. For example, Leonard Bernstein came to Korea only once, and while newspapers reported what he played, they did not mention his conducting style, orchestration, audience response, etc. I was there, but I cannot cite myself. It is difficult to find articles that can be used as citations for Wikipedia. There are plenty of discussions on social media and blogs, but I understand that these are not acceptable sources. I wouldn't mind if some of the unsubstantiated phrases or sentences need to be deleted. Any help with copyediting or finding reliable sources would be greatly appreciated.

 * Ok I will see if there's any grammar mistakes.           Ned1a Wanna talk?  14:57, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I saw that you made a correction. Thanks a lot. Since they sang in Italian, I put the Italian title with the English one in parentheses. I rewrote a chunk of the text because editors say tabulating everything is too excessive. Please advise me on how to remove the box on top. Rosuacamus (talk) 15:46, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi! @Rosuacamus I don't understand what you mean by the box? Do you mean the userbox?           Ned1a Wanna talk?  17:47, 10 June 2024 (UTC)
 * I meant the message box at the top of the Phillip Jeong article: "This article may require copy editing for grammar, style, cohesion, tone, or spelling." Any help to improve the article is welcome! Rosuacamus (talk) 21:29, 10 June 2024 (UTC)

In case I haven't done anything by the end of July, you can pick this because I see you're interested too. Santi (talk) 00:13, 2 July 2024 (UTC)

Planning to send it to FAC. I have added a lot from the reception section and quite a bit at concept and creation section. It definitely needs to be copyedited. 🍕 Boneless Pizza! 🍕 (🔔) 18:53, 11 June 2024 (UTC)

I'm planning to nominate the article as a Good Article (GAN). It previously had some jumbled content copied directly from other sources and so had to be cut way down to remove all of that. I've rewritten it from the sources and would appreciate a fresh set of eyes. Rjjiii (talk) 20:50, 15 June 2024 (UTC)

This is an article I just when through FAC with, but it was suggested that the copy editing was really lacking (English is not my main language and I am not very used to the English Wikipedia standards). Thuiop (talk) 19:53, 16 June 2024 (UTC)

BCR. This is the first article I have worked very heavily. I rewrote the majority of it from the ground up. I want a new fresh set of eyes on this, as I worry that some parts of the article are "crufty". My goal is to get the article to a "B" rank. (I hope I am doing this correctly?)

Classy 101
Current FAC. I need some help about some statements during the article of which I have no more ideas to professionalize, such as "After attracting the attention of several artists by sharing the stage, collaborating with them, and going viral on TikTok, Miko initially composed the song in Los Angeles until she surprisingly met Feid there, having no contact with him before and being always his fan." If a prompt response is possible, the better, because, as mentioned above, it is a current FAC. Santi (talk) 01:54, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Luna (Feid and ATL Jacob song)
Second recuest from me, but less urgent. As I see that this is also suggested in the peer reviews, I put this in to improve the prose in FA (FAC). I repeat, it's less urgent, which you can put me on hold with this all you want. Santi (talk) 16:54, 23 June 2024 (UTC)

Death Race 2
For GAN. On the Reception section, please check whether the prose checks out on verifiability and longer quotes (excluding the one in the quotebox) can be paraphrased. Edit: A general copy edit for clarity and neutrality will suffice. Thanks, Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 12:32, 24 June 2024 (UTC)
 * , please note citation-checking is not part of the copy-editing process. Per WP:BURDEN, the person adding the material is responsible for its accuracy and verifiability. Copy-editing is a "final prose polish" not a general fix-me-up. Cheers,  Baffle☿gab  04:47, 27 June 2024 (UTC)
