I've listed this article for peer review because I am working to get this article to GA status and am looking for steps to improve the article before nomination.

Thoughts from Lee V
Hi JalenFolf. Here's a few things I picked up on.
Lede
  • "independent electronic dance music record label" - WP:SEAOFBLUE, could do with rewording/removing some links.
  • The refs in the lede aren't really neccesary. Should be cited in prose.
  • Is the mascot really the most important part of the article? I'd move it down the lede, if not remove entirely.
  • meme should be linked.
General prose
  • I think an "overview" section wouldn't be misplaced. It jumps straight into the history of the orginasation without saying what it is, what it does, etc.
  • "Beginning" is a weird title, something like "founding" makes more sense.
  • Is it normal to put DOBs for people not in BLPs?
  • Whilst I know British Colombia is in Canada, the article doesn't mention this is Canadian outside of the lede sentence and infobox.
  • (born 1989)[4] and Ari Paunonen (born 1989/90[4]) - refs should go ideally after punctuation.
  • Today, the label signs artists on a single-track basis - seems out of place on a section on origins.
  • The massive quote borders on copyright issues. Even if not, it's quite promotional to copy a press release like this.
    • This happens a lot
  • Article is very "In X month, Y year..."
  • There's some sentence structure issues, with paragraphs often being just one or two sentences.
  • Does the dynamic list for the current artist land a little close to WP:FANCRUFT? Seems a little in depth for me.
  • Are all the albums notable? There's some that have articles. If they are notable, they should be WP:REDLINKed.

Also be aware Earwigs CV check comes up with this: [1]


I hope some of the above is helpful to you to take the item towards GA. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski (talkcontribs) 21:46, 18 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]
