Placeholder.

Infobox and lead

• Use bullet points instead of {{plainlist}} for the length
• "is a live album" → is this Swift's first, second, third, etc. live album?
• "DVD or Blu-ray" → shouldn't it be "and" instead of "or"?

• It was released on either DVD or Blu-Ray.

• "save for" means "except"; it is a vocabulary used in the Slant article.

• The sentence describing the tracks is quite long, try to split it
• "was supported by" → from the way it is worded it suggests that "Long Live" was released to promote the album
• "Brazilian singer-songwriter" → I recommend sticking with just "Brazilian singer" as it doesn't seem Fernandes is known for being a singer-songwriter
• "has sold 368,000 copies" → as of?
• "additionally entered the top 30 on charts in Australia—where it was certified triple platinum by the Australian Recording Industry Association (ARIA), Canada, and Japan." → try to reword, it sounds like it was also certified in Australia by Canada and Japan (?)

Background and release

• Ref 7 doesn't state that the album was released in Asia (maybe only in India?)
• Not sure how ref 8 states that it was released in Europe

Content

• Keefe's comment sounds more like a (critical) review of the album

• Trimmed a bit.

Critical reception

• The Newcastle Herald
  is a tabloid, I don't think it should be used for album reviews

• Tabloid here means the

  • That's fine then. However, looking at The Daily Telegraph's article, I doubt that it is a reliable source considering it was at one point the least trusted newspaper in Australia Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:22, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

• "found the CD rather typical" → I think "typical" should be in quotes
• "but said that "Ours" was disappointing" → McDonnell found "Ours"'s performance disappointing, not the song itself

• In the context of the live album I think mentioning "Ours" suffices as its live recording.

• According to the ref, Carlos Olivares Baró is the reviewer for Notimex

Commercial performance

• Saying that peaked within the top 30 is enough, the peaks don't have to be put in brackets

Charts

• The ref for Japan's peak position is dead
• Not sure why the songs's chart performance is included here as they can be found at Taylor Swift singles discography instead

 Not done The chart performance table for the songs should be removed. Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:22, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Release history

• Shouldn't there be one of these as it was released for different formats?

• I think mentioning the release dates in the prose is enough.

  • Understandable. Sebbirrrr (talk) 09:22, 15 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Certifications

• Shouldn't the heading say Certifications for Speak Now World Tour – Live ?

References

• Copyvio at 46.2% but that's because of the album's credits. However, I recommend trimming Keefe's quote down as it sits at 37%
• Source check: 3, 7, 8, 9, 18, 23, 26, 28, 32, 33
• According to ref 9 the press release comes from
  unreliable
• Ref 32 is dead
• As I mentioned while reviewing "Ours", I'm unsure about Roughstock's reliability

• It has an editorial board, was included as one of the sources for academic research by an American college, and its content was used by the Society for American Music.

  Thanks, I have addressed the two remaining points. Regarding the Australian Telegraph, I removed it based on the many controversies it received; its sensationalism is reminiscent of the
