Her discography keeps getting longer and should have a page of it's own by now Beastbrat (talk) 23:43, 7 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

If that is done now, this article would become a stub (with just one section), which isn't proper per WP:SPLIT. Flooded with them hundreds 07:02, 8 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewer: Lee Vilenski (talk · contribs) 14:17, 3 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, I am planning on reviewing this article for GA Status, over the next couple of days. Thank you for nominating the article for GA status. I hope I will learn some new information, and that my feedback is helpful.

If nominators or editors could refrain from updating the particular section that I am updating until it is complete, I would appreciate it to remove a edit conflict. Please address concerns in the section that has been completed above (If I've raised concerns up to references, feel free to comment on things like the lede.)

I generally provide an overview of things I read through the article on a first glance. Then do a thorough sweep of the article after the feedback is addressed. After this, I will present the pass/failure. I may use strikethrough tags when concerns are met. Even if something is obvious why my concern is met, please leave a message as courtesy.

Best of luck! you can also use the ((done)) tag to state when something is addressed. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)}

Please let me know after the review is done, if you were happy with the review! Obviously this is regarding the article's quality, however, I want to be happy and civil to all, so let me know if I have done a good job, regardless of the article's outcome.

Immediate Failures

• It is a long way from meeting any one of the six good article criteria -
• It contains copyright infringements -
• It has, or needs, cleanup banners that are unquestionably still valid. These include((cleanup)), ((POV)), ((unreferenced)) or large numbers of ((citation needed)), ((clarify)), or similar tags. (See also ((QF-tags))). -
• It is not stable due to edit warring on the page. -

Links

• Is the Vice article an RS? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Vice is okay to use for a GA nomination. If it was an FA nomination; it would not.

• AllMusic is marginally reliable, why is it suitable in this case? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've seen AllMusic be used in FA articles.

• Same with the forbes article Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'll remove Forbes since that is an unreliable source

• And with Billboard music and E! Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Billboard is a high quality sources, and E! works fine too, as long as it is only for GA.

• There is a YouTube video, YouTube is not a publisher. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:42, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I've been told by other editors who edit music articles that it is.

It is not a publisher. It is a webhost. You need to specify who the creator (channel) is. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:21, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Prose

Lede

• Is there actually a merge discussion ongoing? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:56, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I don't know where that is going...

• No need to link Colombians. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:56, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Removed

• Are the three refs in the lede needed? Can we not cite in the body? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:56, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Removed the sources from the lead.

• trap artist - will need a link. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 13:56, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wikilinked Latin tap

General

• In 2020 Karol G received 4 nominations at the Latin Grammys. - probably worth summarising her Latin Grammys in total, 8 nominations, 1 win etc. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• At age fourteen, she appeared on the Colombian version of The X Factor - probably worth saying what the name of the series was, which I understand is El Factor X. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• chose "Karol G" as her artistic name. - why? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Billboard Hot Latin Songs - should probably link Billboard. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Why does Artistry have a subsection of Musical style? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• yet sporty and tomboyish — but never [cutesy]" - source says "cute", any reason to change that? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• diamond wedding ring, confirming the couple's engagement - do you mean an engagement ring? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• In July 2020, Karol G tested positive for COVID-19 - not entirely sure why this is worth mentioning. We wouldn't mention if she got the flu but was ok. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Medellín in early life is spelt wrong. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 14:40, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
