Talk:Reckless (album)/GA1

. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

• 1. Well written
  • Needs a thorough copyedit
  • Lots of problems with
    WP:ALBUM
    and Billboard chart titles
• 2. Factually accurate and verifiable
  • What makes skolarbete.nu a reliable source?
  • Would you mind reprinting here (not in the article) the sentence from the liner notes in Anthology that supports the idea that "Run to You" is "arguably one of Adams most recognizable and popular songs"?
  • "The success of the singles 'Heaven' and 'Summer of '69' renewed interest in the album..." source?
• 3. Broad in its coverage
  • The release and reception section needs a paragraph or three about critical reception
• 4. Neutral
  • "huge commercial success", "['Heaven' is] arguably one of Adams' most recognizable and popular songs", "moderate top 100 success"
• 6. Images
  • How do you know Adams is playing that particular song in the picture? Even if he is, what does a picture from 2005 tell us about an album from 1984?

Let me know when you've addressed these of if you'd like to discuss further. —

The use of the word "although" would indicate that some sort of contradictory statement is going to follow, as in, "Although the song was released to radio in 1985, it didn't chart until 1987," or "Although the song was released to radio in 1985, it failed to chart." As it is, the sentence makes absolutely no sense to me. Can the author explain the reason why this was written in this way? Davidgra (talk) 04:58, 13 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There was also a Reckless VHS videotape. It told a connected story in the following order: 1. Run To You 2. Summer Of '69 3. Somebody 4. Heaven 5. Kids Wanna Rock 6. This Time . However, "This Time" should go first because "Summer of '69" transitions from black and white to colour 70.26.86.135 (talk) 00:27, 13 April 2021 (UTC) 70.26.86.135 (talk) 00:16, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
