Good Article review progress box WP:CV () 3a. broadness () 3b. focus () 4. free or tagged images () 6b. pics relevant () Note: this represents where the article stands relative to the Good Article criteria. Criteria marked are unassessed

I will crack on with this one tomorrow! --K. Peake 20:20, 27 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

• Infobox looks good!
• Mention in the first sentence that it is from her second studio album, How to Let Go (2022)
• "from her second studio album, How to Let Go (2022); marking" → "from the album, marking"
• The writing sentence should be the second of the lead, followed by the inspiration one and then release
• ""Mirror" touches on themes" → "it touches on themes" but should there really be a comma before the last theme?
  • Per
    MOS:SERIAL it's fine but I removed it since it looks okay either way. Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply
    ]
• "Its instrumentation consists of" → "The instrumentation consists of" swapping this with the above sentence because comp comes before lyrics
• "Sigrid came up with" → "She came up with"
• "Commercially, it reached" → "Commercially, the song reached"
• Wikilink music video
• "premiered alongside the single. It depicts" → "premiered alongside it. The video depicts"
• "Sigrid performed "Mirror"" → "Sigrid performed the song"
• "She also included the song" → "She also included it"

Background and release

• "a scavenger hunt." → "a scavenger hunt across their local cities." per the source with the wikilink
• Per
  WP:OVERCITE
  , solely invoke [3] at the end of the first para
• "it would be released on 26 May." → "it would be released a week later."
• "from Sigrid's second studio album" → "from How to Let Go"
  • Wouldn't that be
    WP:OR as the album's name wasn't known at that time? Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply
    ]
• "Island Records and Republic Records sent" → "Island and Republic Records sent"
• "on 1 June while" → "on 1 June 2021 while"
• The source does not mention several remixes having been made
  • I removed that bit entirely as it didn't really add anything. Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Composition and lyrics

• ""Mirror" has been described" → "Musically, "Mirror" has been described"
• Should there really be a comma before self-love?
  • See above for the lead. Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Swap [11] and [12] so they are in a corresponding order with the info
  • Shouldn't refs be arranged in increasing order? Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• "Sigrid wrote it following" → "Sigrid wrote the song following"
• Stylize as i-D instead
• "who you are."" → "who you are"." per
  MOS:QUOTE
• "claimed that the song is" → "asserted that the song is"
• Remove the "darts and flutters" part because that is not appropriate for comp
• "to the forefront."" → "to the forefront"."
• Pipe chorus to Refrain
• "Jason Lipshutz writing for Billboard asserted" → "Jason Lipshutz, for Billboard, asserted"
• "and declares "I love" → "and declares, "I love"
• "in the mirror!"." → "in the mirror!" since this ends the quote

Reception

• The release year of Future Nostalgia is not in the quote; maybe end it earlier to add this and also mention it being a Dua Lipa album?
• I don't think the Smith review should be the second one since others focusing on the disco sound are more suitable for thematic order
  • Added it after Murray's review. Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• "improvements and recalibrations."" → "improvements and recalibrations"." per MOS:QUOTE
• "the song's bridge is "an homage" → "the song's bridge is a "homage"
• Instead of English publication before DIY, write a reviewer for
• Do something similar to the above instead of writing British radio station before Capital FM
• "49 in the United Kingdom and 76" → "number 49 in the United Kingdom and number 76"
  • I already said "numbers" at the beginning of the sentence, wouldn't it look awkward repeating it? Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Music video and live performances

• Wikilink music video
• "Sigrid is performing various activities," → "Sigrid performs various activities,"
• Stylize as i-D instead
• "stated that "for [her] it's" → "stated, "For me, it's" to make it clear this is quoting his point of view
• Remove British music television show introduction to Later... with Jools Holland
• "She gave a performance of "Mirror" on 16 July 2021 during" → "Sigrid gave a performance of "Mirror" on 16 July 2021 for" but remove the introduction to The One Show

Track listing

• Good

Credits and personnel

• Good

Charts

Weekly charts

• Good

Year-end charts

• Year-end chart performance → 2021 year-end chart performance

Release history

• This seems disordered; shouldn't the releases be sorted by the date, not country?
  • Let me know how it looks now. Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

References

• Copyvio score looks too high at 42.5%; cut down direct quoting from the i-D ref to fix this
  • It's now at 35.9%, let me know if I should cut more. Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• I-D → i-D on ref 1
• Shouldn't Airplay Control be changed to Radio Date or Radiodate.it on ref 8?
  • Per
    WP:SINGLESCRIT, the publication is called Airplay Control. Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply
    ]
• BBC → BBC News on ref 10, with the wikilink
• WP:OVERLINK
  of Billboard on ref 20
  • Shouldn't that remain linked for consistency reasons chart-wise? Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
• Cite The One Show as work/website instead on ref 25
• Wikilink BBC on ref 26
• Change url-access to citing limited instead on ref 28
• The last citation of ref 39 is missing a bullet point to separate it from the rest

Final comments and verdict

•  On hold until all of the issues are fixed after this quick review! --K. Peake 08:12, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • @Kyle Peake: thanks so much for reviewing! I've left some comments. Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:57, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• Sebbirrrr This definitely looks better now, however you still need to write from How to Let Go since the album being previously identified prevents this from constituting OR, move the refs in the first para of comp to be in corresponding order since this is the first time those are invoked and fix the overlink of Billboard because this is in references, not the chart table. --K. Peake 20:46, 28 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  @Kyle Peake: fixed! Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:02, 29 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
