Article rewrite

Latest comment: 2 years ago2 comments2 people in discussion

Wow, I'm really impressed with the recent expansion of the article. It looks great. I'm honestly surprised you were able to dig up this much - its often difficult for me to expand my music article this far our if they're much before the "internet era" of the 2000s.

I think the track list looks fine. Personally, I'm the type who just writes up a rough track list and let others fix it if its not perfect. So I don't always know the exact best ways of doing it. I just care that its good enough for readers to see and understand. And this is. So it passes my standard at least.

As far as the charting stuff goes, I have no problem/objection to how it is now, but I don't think I'd get into any further details of charting. Generally speaking, in the music Wikiprojects, we largely focus on debuts, peaks, life-time totals (in the context of sales), and any noteworthy/abnormal happenings. (Particularly lengthy chart runs, large drop offs or spikes caused by external factors, going "platinum", etc.)

Overall, great job אומנות

Thank you very much Sergecross73! For reading and checking, and your very kind complements and motivating message!

I'm happy to know it looks fine, including the featuring albums chart-peak info bits, and that the track-list is okay with your explanation that as long as it's understandable to the readers it should be fine.

Yeah it's difficult for me too, to find sources for pre-internet stuff. Here I initially used a source from the connected "Netherlands in 1957 Eurovision" article that another editor put some years ago, which led me to a Dutch newspaper archive and opened tons of possibilities to search for more articles! And other sources were 2000s ones as retrospective reviews of the song, and the single charts showing their whole histories including featuring albums charting data so it gave me a decent "sourcing reservoir" to add quite a lot of varied material, about reviews and releases. Thank you deeply once again! :-) אומנות (talk) 12:30, 6 December 2022 (UTC)Reply
