Infobox

[edit]
  • All good

Lead

[edit]
  • Since you mention it charted here, you need to include a section in this article for "Charts", where peak positions are stated
Added. —Ojorojo (talk) 02:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Recording and composition

[edit]
  • All fantastic! :)

Releases and charts

[edit]
  • "The single reached number 35 during a stay of ten weeks on the pop chart.[9]" --> The Billboard Hot 100 isn't necessarily a "pop" chart
Yes, removed. —Ojorojo (talk) 02:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hendrix involvement

[edit]
  • "Cropper's recollection is supported by a 1968 Rolling Stone magazine interview with Hendrix:" --> "Cropper's recollection is supported by a 1968 Rolling Stone interview with Hendrix:"
Changed. —Ojorojo (talk) 02:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Done.—Ojorojo (talk) 02:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Rolling Stones version

[edit]
  • "The band was filmed performing the song with Brian Jones and during their first appearance with Mick Taylor in Hyde Park on July 5, 1969, which was later included on their Stones in the Park DVD." --> No source; remove if one cannot be found
Added source for Hyde Park, removed Jones. —Ojorojo (talk) 02:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Not much to point out; another good article! Thanks as always. ON HOLD for seven days to allow for any changes to be made to the article. Thanks. Cheers, Carbrera (talk) 23:21, 30 June 2016 (UTC).[reply]

Carbrera, I found a new source for the Stones' version, so I expanded it a bit and added an infobox. (I was thinking about reviewing "Hollaback Girl" – good work – but someone beat me to it.) —Ojorojo (talk) 02:35, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Ojorojo Hey thanks! Good work to you too! Even though the GA Cup is now over, feel free to contact me if you ever need a review; I'd be glad to do so! Cheers! Carbrera (talk) 02:39, 1 July 2016 (UTC).[reply]
Wow, nine hours from nomination to pass. This definitely is a record! Thanks again. —Ojorojo (talk) 02:44, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
