I will conduct a full review of the article on Wednesday. Statυs (talk) 02:12, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
Lead
[edit]- The song received mostly positive reviews from music critics and was praised by some for its highly dark subject matter and Ocean's singing talent. --> The song received generally positive reviews from music critics, who praised Ocean's vocals and the song's dark subject matter.
Changed.
- When Nostalgia, Ultra was expected to be released as an EP by Def Jam, "Swim Good" was released as the second single, though the EP release was later cancelled. --> This really has no relevance to the article, especially since the first sentence simply states: released as the second single from his mixtape Nostalgia, Ultra (2011).
Removed.
- #70 - number 70
Doe.
- Should specify that Billboard is a U.S. chart. Not everybody knows this. Billboard should also be linked.
Done.
- The song received a music video directed by Australian director Nabil Elderkin released on September 16. --> Very awkwardly worded. I don't think the date the video was released in particularly relevant, considering the release date of the single itself wasn't even mentioned.
Date removed.
- Ocean performed the track during his seven show tour through North America and Europe. --> When?
Added.
Background
[edit]- I made the adjustments here myself, as I didn't find them to be anything major.
Thank you!
Content
[edit]- Lyrical content or Composition would be a much more appropriate title.
Suggestion applied.
- Sample is too long. According to its length, it should be around 25 seconds.
New sample added.
Music video
[edit]- How about merging this with live performances and just call it promotion? The sections are rather small. This is just a suggestion.
Merged.
Chart performance
[edit]- This little sentence could be just included in reception, as there is critical reception and public reception (which would be a song charting). This, too, is just a suggestion.
Done.
References
[edit]- I am seeing some reference issues.
- Ref 4 & 13 - work is iTunes Store, publisher is Apple Inc.
- Ref 12 & 15 are the same.
- Ref 18 - Pitchfork Media is italicized, when it should not be. Publisher for all Pitchfork Media refs is Ryan Schreiber.
- Ref 19 - work is Billboard, publisher is Prometheus Global Media.
- Ref 20 - work is Ultratip, publisher is Hung Medien / hitparade.ch.
All corrected I believe.
Verdict
[edit]- Everything looks good to me. Great work! Passing the article. Statυs (talk) 19:23, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

[edit]Where should this be listed? One of the current sections? A new section? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Rossidor (talk • contribs) 22:52, 29 May 2020 (UTC)
