References

[edit]

Can we add a references section? "Now I'm all for you like Janet." <-- lyric reference in Taylor Swift's song "Snow on the Beach" from her 2022 album, Midnights. Buffyinfaith (talk) 17:14, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Buffyinfaith: First of all, there is a "References" section. It's for the citations. Secondly, a simple lyrical allusion does not establish enough notability to mention this in the article. It should only be put in the article if enough attention has been brought to "All for You", i.e. it experiences a resurgence of interest/popularity. See WP:IPC.

Wikibreak

[edit]

@11JORN: I see on your talk page that you're taking a wikibreak, so I'm not sure if you're available to respond to the edits I've made thus far. I'll give it a week and some change to see if there's a response and then continue making suggestions. benǝʇᴉɯ 20:10, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Benmite Hey there! Recently, I actually manage to do some GAR edits and incorporated some of the recommendations above. I'd be more than happy to help assist @11JORN in regards to completing the GAR on their behalf. Dcdiehardfan (talk) 22:07, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's great, thanks Dcdiehardfan! benǝʇᴉɯ 19:41, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Final comments

[edit]

I'm going to fail this one for now, mostly due to inactivity. I should have been more diligent with having things suggested on time, though I think once the nominator is back from their break, it should be okay to be renominated and I can finish the edits. benǝʇᴉɯ 00:49, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Benmite, don't forget to submit this and any other reviews you did this month to the backlog drive! -- asilvering (talk) 00:26, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]
  • "at the moment"." → "at the moment."" per MOS:QUOTE on full sentences
  • I cannot access the Billboard books source, so would like to ask does it mention in the present tense that they "usually listen" to these works or "usually listened" in the past please?
It's in the present tense Alex reach me! 02:17, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • "to Jackson's lyrics for" → "to her lyrics for"
  • "It originally came in" → "The line originally came in"
  • "the hairstylist and everybody involved" → "the hairstylist, and everybody involved" and invoke the ref again at the end of this sentence since it uses direct quoting

Release

[edit]
  • Merge this to being in the same section as critical reception, as it is only one para
I merged this one with the previous section as from my point of view they go together better than the next one, if you don't mind Alex reach me! 02:17, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • "All for You" is not mentioned as being considered for the album's title by the source

  • "According to Michael Cragg of" → "According to Cragg of" per him having been introduced previously
  • Remove or replace The Tech per WP:RSSM
  • Cite Neumu as publisher instead
  • "Tom Sinclair of Entertainment Weekly described it" → "Sinclair of Entertainment Weekly described it" and try to put the last part more into your own words
  • "Ed Henderson from Slant Magazine noted that" → "Henderson from Slant Magazine noted that"

Commercial performance

[edit]
  • Pipe pop to Contemporary hit radio and urban to Urban adult contemporary on the img text, although remove links to any of these in this section's prose as that was done earlier in release
  • "In the United States, "All for You"" → "In the US, "All for You"" per MOS:US
  • [47][42] should be in numerical order

  • Mention that the certification was in the US and how many copies it shelved from this
  • Pipe Nielsen SoundScan to Luminate (company)
  • Since you mention the Australian chart twice in the same sentence, I would suggest to use its full name on the first instance
  • Mention the New Zealand chart by name too
  • "In the United Kingdom, "All for You"" → "In the UK, "All for You"" and mention the UK Singles Chart later in this sentence with the wikilink
  • "in the United Kingdom." → "in the UK."

Accolades

[edit]
  • I would suggest to make the first para of this a sub-section for accolades in reception, while moving the music video awards to the video section
  • The Top-Selling R&B/Hip-Hop Single award is not sourced
  • Pipe Lady of Soul Awards to Soul Train Music Awards
  • "also winning the accolade for Most Played Song" → "while it won Most Played Song"
  • Pipe ASCAP Rhythm & Soul Music Awards to American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers
  • OutKast → Outkast with the wikilink

Music video

[edit]
  • Wikilink music video in prose and the img text
  • Put more of Jackson's quote into your own words
  • ""Dammn Baby" (2016) e" → ""Dammn Baby" (2016), and"
  • Second para looks good!
  • "Kovie Biakolo described the visual as" → "Biakolo described the visual as"
  • Put more of the Philadelphia review in your own words
  • "Tom Breiham of Stereogum observed" → "Breiham of Stereogum observed"

[edit]
  • Retitle to Live performances and media usage, making the next section the bottom para
  • "to some Jackson's" → "to some of Jackson's"
  • Put more of the ABC News quote into your own words
  • Img looks good!
  • "Her performance at" → "Jackson's performance at"

  • "in the United Kingdom." → "in the UK."
  • "cargo pants and combat boots;" → "cargo pants, and combat boots;" and introduce by its full name of the Number Ones, Up Close and Personal tour

Usage

[edit]
  • Merge with the above section and make this only one para since it is so short
Mmm, is it OK to keep this section separated from the previous one? It has little to do with live performances so I don't think they go well together Alex reach me! 02:17, 12 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
