  • According to this report, there is one WP:DABLINK
  • Infobox: "Released" needs a {{start date}} template
  • Infobox: "Length" needs a {{duration}} template
  • Infobox: Unlink Australia
  • "Hook Me Up" is a song by Australian duo The Veronicas for their second album, Hook Me Up. ---> "Hook Me Up" is a song recorded by Australian duo The Veronicas for their second album of the same name.
  • Wikilink lead single, down-tempo, key, beat, samples, hook, chorus
  • "lead single in late 2007 in Australia" - no, give us the date it was release
  • "The Secret Life Of..." - and this was released on? (year of release)
  • "dance-floor friendly sound" - sounds orish, if this is a quote then it needs to be presented as such
  • Too many sentences have "the song" and "the single" - needs a variety
  • The single was influenced the electropop songs of underground bands in Los Angeles, whose sound The Veronica's were keen to incorporate into their own music. - add "by" before "the electropop"
  • The song is set in common time and in the key of G minor. with an energy filled fast tempo of 134 beats per minute - (1) what is up with the period after G minor? (2) "with an energy filled" sounds orish (3) fast tempo is not the same as downtempo, I hope you do know that. So this contradicts what other sentences say in the article. Which is it? downtempo or fast tempo (which needs to be changed to uptempo).
  • Electropop (is wikilinked twice), Australia (is wikilinked twice, unlink them both)
  • FN#7's sentence is missing a period
  • "for the issue date 7 October 2007" - remove
  • "The song received platinum status by the ..." ---> "The song was certified platinum by the ..."
  • On the ARIA end of year charts "Hook Me Up" ranked at number twenty two. - remove "at"
  • FN#17 goes after the comma
  • "after a sexy concept" - was this from a quote? If not, its orish, if it is it needs to be presented as such
  • File:Hook Me Up audio sample by The Veronicas.ogg needs a "further rational" section. Look at File:Amor Prohibido.ogg as an example
  • Please fix these concerns before I do a spotcheck and a reference check. Happy holidays, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 03:43, 27 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Reference checking
  • FN#6 Contactmusic.com does not need to be in italics. To force this simply add '' '' to the work field
  • FN#7 as well as above (Sputnikmusic.com)
  • FN#9 Is it "Accessed" or "Retrieved"? Be consistent
  • FN#10, FN#12, FN#16, FN#30 and FN#31 same as FN#6
  • FN#14 publisher?
  • FN#19 YouTube is discouraged to be used, unless you can provide a persuasive reasoning on why it should be cited? (In other words, can you find another source on the web such as google.news or google.books?)
  • FN#20, FN#27 DO NOT SHOUT! Do not capitalize titles, even if websites present themselves as such
  • FN#27 is not a reliable source, you need to replace it with a reliable one
  • FN#28 wikilink Apple Inc
Thanks. I have fixed the links. As for FN#19, I cannot find a reliable source online which will show the performance, other than the one that is listed. I have removed FN#27 because I can only find it on YouTube and if that isn't reliable then I will remove the bit about "Video Hits" altogether. I was also wondering how I could go about getting a screen cap of the music video without violating any rules. Thanks again DonEd (talk) 07:45, 28 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
