Hello, Ippantekina! I'll be reviewing the article you nominated for GAN. "Fortnight" is one of the more memorable tracks from TTPD, but it can never defeat "Anti-Hero" for its numerous meme-mable lines. Jokes aside, I'll start this in a few days and try not to screw anything up.

Comments

Lead and infobox

"Fortnight" is a song by the American singer-songwriter Taylor Swift featuring vocals from American rapper and singer Post Malone – Why does Swift have an article before it while Malone does not? A consistent format should be implemented
Studios and length in the infobox are unsourced and does not appear in the body
In the first sentence of the "Critical reception" section, it says that the song received mixed reception, while the lead states it was divided among critics. Doesn't "mixed" and "divided" have different meanings?
but others considered the production weak – As far as I can tell, only Business Insider and NME comments fitted that description. I don't think two out of the fourteen reviews really represent the song's critical assessment. I suggest replacing it with other sentiments that were talked about more in the section.
with the second highest single-week streaming figure since 2020 – the Billboard source that supports this says that the song's streams "[marked] the top total for a song in a single week", surpassing "Drivers License" for it.

Background and release

Add and link Taylor Swift
"hitting him up" – I don't see the quote in the source given
The track was released as the lead single of The Tortured Poets Department on April 19, 2024, concurrently with the album's release – the source only implies that it was released concurrently with the album; I suggest finding an explicit one and replacing the other
I think you should address that the song was serviced to US and Italian radios at the same day when it was released
Wikilink remix
A remix produced by Blond:ish was released on May 21, 2024 – the source implies that it was released on that date, also suggesting to find an explicit source for this
Starting from the May 2024 shows in Nanterre as part of the Eras Tour – I know that the shows were promoted as Paris instead of Nanterre but I suggest finding an explicit source for this too
I think you should include the part of the Variety source where the "TTPD"-emblazoned "bed was [also tilting] every which way"
