Following on from your recent review of one of my articles, I will take this one on. However, the review will come in stages of sorts because the article is large, so do not think it is complete once I have only added comments for a few sections. --Kyle Peake (talk) 16:39, 3 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, I'm going to start addressing the comments you have written now and I'll wait for the next ones. LOVI33 19:46, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Final comments and verdict

  • Man that was long, but felt great to review; I noticed throughout that you had not added citations to back up text though.  On hold and can't wait to see your responses! --Kyle Peake (talk) 21:26, 4 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Hey Kyle Peake, thanks again for reviewing this article. I have removed all the original research and addressed all your comments. Is there anything else you would like me to do? LOVI33 03:55, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • LOVI33 Wow that was very quick, thanks for responding greatly! I have a few comments in response to your statements. --Kyle Peake (talk) 05:40, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Kyle Peake, I have responded to most all your new comments. I have done them all accept the Malaysian charts. Should I just remove it? LOVI33 15:36, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • LOVI33 I have now concluded that can be kept, since it is only not verified due to not having a high name recognition and if multiple other GAs use it, that indicates the source is likely to be fine. --Kyle Peake (talk) 16:28, 5 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
