Thank you for reviewing. I believe I've addressed your concerns below. One thing: I cannot access the Guardian piece to know how the article's text should possibly be modified. Are you able to make a quick change, or share the Guardian text for comparative purposes? Please let me know if anything else is needed here. Thanks again! ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:14, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Another Believer, if you mean the Telegraph piece, just check Earwig which has the text. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 21:05, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
There is also one other thing to check: Metro. If you're using it just for pronouns, looks like this Vulture piece also has the he/they mentions and is more reliable. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 21:07, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Sammi Brie Oh, thanks! I made these minor changes and linked "came out" to Coming out. ---Another Believer (Talk) 21:17, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
@Another Believer Looks good. See my suggestion to replace the Metro source with Vulture. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 21:20, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

No serious issues. Might want to tweak a bit of phrasing in one passage. There are some copy edits, and I'll also teach you about table captions while we're here. No issues beyond that; should not take long, Another Believer. Sammi Brie (she/her • tc) 07:52, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Wonderful, thanks! ---Another Believer (Talk) 14:47, 15 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing and spot checks

[edit]

Earwig turned up no issues. The largest-percentage sources mostly flag work titles and such banal phrases as "was eliminated in the second episode". I do wonder if Ward came out by writing a letter to his parents before running away from home for a week, after which his parents individually took him for a drive and talked but did not discuss his sexual orientation after that incident. could be rephrased slightly to bring it a little further from the Telegraph source.

There are five Headbomb-highlighted sources. One is a video from the BBC (geoblocked, I note). Three are primary sources (music videos and an ABOUTSELF Instagram post). The fifth is from Metro, generally unreliable. Is there a better source than Metro?

Five sources were chosen for spot checks:

  • 2: The Telegraph obituary is used five times and checks out for claims such as the mechanic career and lip-sync with Tayce. checkY
  • 12: Official listing of an event shows Cherry Valentine as being on the tour. checkY
  • 18: BBC News obituary gives date of death and death age. checkY
  • 26: The reference is the music video in this case.
  • 27: NME article on "Good Ones" video. checkY
