Vanilla Chocolat contains only the "Live Performance and criticism" from http://surf.selekweb.com/index.php?q=aHR0cDovL2VuLndpa2lwZWRpYS5vcmcvd2lraS9DaGVycnlfUG9w, because Cherry Pop and Vanilla Chocolat were performed together on Vocea Romaniei.

That page is a mirror of our article on Cherry Pop anyway, so no copyvio. Crow^Caw 19:18, 7 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

Hi Cartoon network freak. I prefer to leave comments, which you requested, on the article talk page. Here are some:

Titles of songs should have double quote marks, while albums should be in italics. I've done it myself, already. See MOS:QUOTEMARKS. --Efe (talk) 10:18, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done

The inline citations on non controversial information in the lead may be removed. Please ensure however that the same information is found in the main body and is properly cited. See WP:LEADCITE. --Efe (talk) 10:18, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done

I suggest that you incorporate the blockquotes to the main prose. There's is an imbalance, having huge quotes and leaving the main prose with almost nothing. --Efe (talk) 10:18, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done

There's no discussion of the musical aspect of the song, therefore ensure that the use of "audio" from a copyrighted work is fair. Per Wikipedia:Non-free content criteria#8, "Non-free content is used only if its presence would significantly increase readers' understanding of the article topic, and its omission would be detrimental to that understanding." --Efe (talk) 10:18, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done

The line "They also praised the music video, calling it "very creative" and "highly recommended", noting that it keeps in line with the "selfie trend"." should be under the section "Music video". The critical response section should be for the song only. --Efe (talk) 10:18, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Done

For names of websites or anything without an article in Wikipedia, I suggest that they should be identified as such. --Efe (talk) 10:18, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not done What do you mean?

Done

Please disregard. I think adding .com will suffice. --Efe (talk) 11:49, 5 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]

These are my comments, for now. --Efe (talk) 10:18, 8 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am Carbrera, and I'll be reviewing this article for possible good article submission.

Full review coming very soon. Carbrera (talk) 01:02, 4 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox

~~What do you mean by "being vanilla-coloured" in the alt box? Could this possibly be reworded?~~

~~Remove the flat list from the genre; there's only one genre listed~~

~~Remove the flat list form the producer; there's only one producer listed~~

Lead

~~Remove the space before the link to Romanian~~

Change 'sophomore' to 'second'

Remove the reference as you do not need one in the lead

Remove 'herself' from the listing of writers involved with the track

Remove 'alone' from the listing of writers involved with the track

Remove the mention of 5 million views for the music video

Remove the video comparison to "Selfie en Paris"

Change 'Everything Express' into 'Musical critics'

Change 'Hitfire' to 'others'

Again, remove the reference

~~Overall, I feel this lead could be significantly reworded~~

Background and recording

~~Remove the second 's' in '26-seconds' in the description of the included audio~~

Again, remove 'herself' and 'alone' from the first sentence

Remove 'the' immediately before 'Fonogram Studios'

The reftitle is a bit too long for the source after "like on [her] second studio album."

~~I think 'commended' sounds like a weird word choice since she's describing her own song~~

Critical response

~~I think this section should be renamed 'Critical reception'~~

Include a topic sentence, stating that the song received generally positive reviews upon release

You list two completely different sources for the same quote, so this needs to be fixed and/or removed

You keep using 'they', but not clarifying who 'they' is

The '[...]' in the quotes needs to be formatted correctly to Wikipedia standards

~~Possible expansion of this section would be appreciated as well~~

Live performances

~~This should be moved below 'Music video'~~

Combine the first two sentences

Combine the sentences discussing her performances on Pro FM radio

Italicize 'The Voice'

~~Again, Italicize 'The Voice' or replace with 'the program'~~

Music video

~~Add a space before 'A selfie video...'~~

Link 'selfie' in the lead sentence

Combine the sentences discussing some of the television shows she filmed the video on

The reftitle could be shortened perhaps in the source involving plagiarism accusations

~~The last sentence doesn't seem too necessary; if you want to keep it, I'd suggest adding more video reviews/reception towards the video~~

Credits and personnel

~~Looks good!~~

Track listings

~~The Spanish/Turkish/Polish download box needs to have proper spaces used~~

References

~~Primarily, a template needs to be added to the article since one is available~~

[11] - Unlink YouTube

[12] - Unlink YouTube

[16] - Unlink YouTube

~~[21] - Link iTunes store~~

End of GA Review:

Good article, but it definitely needs to be put on hold for now. There are mistakes that need to be visited before GA consideration. Gimme a holler when any updating has taken place. Carbrera (talk) 01:07, 5 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Carbrera, I've adressed everything above besides the expansion of some of the article's topics, as I couldn't find any other reliable source out there. Thanks!

Cartoon network freak (talk) 13:49, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think this article is probably one of the better ones out there when it comes to Alexandra Stan-related topics. Thanks for your contributions to the article and your cooperation. Carbrera (talk) 15:32, 6 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]
