Hi, @AskeeaeWiki. I will be reviewing this article perhaps starting now (because today I'm going to my church's connection group, so my schedule is a little tight) to give you 2 GAs. Now I'm a little more confident in reviewing what happened in I Feel It Coming. Thank you for being so kind to me in the process. I assume you're sleeping for now, so I'll take the opportunity to put in as many observations as possible to speed up the process. Santi (talk) 17:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox

[edit]
  • Since I realize that Trilogy is a compilation album, there is no need to mention it.

Background and production

[edit]
  • "As McKinney played the Weeknd instrumentals for consideration" => "As McKinney played songs to the Weeknd for consideration"
     Done
  • Replace in ref 4 "cbc.ca" to "CBC". Wikilink.
  • Link Billboard on ref 5.
     Done
  • Add info about the song's inclusion on both album.
     Done
  • "On November 13, 2012, it was reissued as a part of his compilation album, Trilogy." => "Afterwards, it was included on the Weeknd's compilation album, Trilogy, on November 13, 2012."
     Done
  • Link compilation album.
     Done

Music and lyrics

[edit]
  • Reference 6 does not explicitly mention about a party. That's more what Billboard did.
     Done
  • Move the ref 5 from "at the end" to "to sex."
     Done
  • Move ref 1 from infobox to this section and complement the prose with it, which says that the song is alternative R&B. That source also needs authorship.
     Done
  • Link Impact.
     Done
  • Authorship for ref 8 (Daria Paterek)
     Done

Critical reception

[edit]
  • "Pitchfork later placed it on its list of top 100 songs of 2011 at #57, with Eric Grandy saying it was "Tesfaye at his best, emoting in a androgynous falsetto one minute, muttering unbelievable curses the next." " => "They later ranked it at number 57 on their list of Top 100 Songs, with Eric Grandy saying it was "Tesfaye at his best, emoting in a androgynous falsetto one minute, muttering unbelievable curses the next." " Since the name of the author of the first Pitchfork article is not mentioned in this article, this practice is acceptable.
     Done
  • Change template to "cite magazine" in ref 7 and move "Rolling Stone" from "author1" to "magazine".
     Done
  • "Rolling Stone declared "House of Balloons / Glass Table Girls" as the Weeknd's 9th best track, " => "ranked"
     Done
  • "Rolling Stone placed the first part of the song at #488 on its 2021 and 2024 edition of the 500 best songs of all time." => "They also ranked its first part 488th on their 2021 revision of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time." Move to the next paragraph.
     Done
  • Problems with ref 12.
     Done
  • "Complex further wrote" => "They further wrote"
     Done
  • Reuse ref 13 after "melancholic R&B." and add authorship.
     Done

Live performances

[edit]
  • "The Weeknd performed the song for his first ever show in the United States." Is it another show or the Coachella one?
    It is the Coachella one, I cleared that up.
  • Link "Billboard" in ref 15.
     Done
  • Fix ref 21.
     Done

Personnel

[edit]
  • Modify the structure of the reference a little. "{{cite web|url=https://music.apple.com/us/song/house-of-balloons-glass-table-girls-original/1558942156|title=House of Balloons / Glass Table Girls (Original)|website=[[Apple Music]]|access-date=April 5, 2024}}" => "{{cite web |publisher=[[Apple Music]] |title=House of Balloons / Glass Table Girls (Original){{spaced ndash}}Song by The Weeknd |url=https://music.apple.com/us/song/house-of-balloons-glass-table-girls-original/1558942156 |access-date=April 7, 2024 |url-status=live}}" Can it be archived?
     Partly done: When I attempted to archive it, the website did not load.
