Lightning

Contributor(s): PresN, ProtoDrake

Protodrake and myself have pulled this topic together over the past few years as the games in the Final Fantasy XIII sub-series have come out, and with the recent GA for Lightning Returns: Final Fantasy XIII it's now ready to go. We previously nominated this topic in December when the last game hadn't been released in the US yet, but it was closed for being premature. This topic includes the three games, the characters of those games, the main (and title) character, and the music of the first two games- Lightning Returns's music has not received as much attention as the other two games, so it doesn't have enough detail to break out into its own article. Thanks for reviewing! --PresN 18:26, 12 June 2014 (UTC)

• Support All articles are GA or higher including the main article being Featured. great work you two. Lucia Black (talk) 05:22, 14 June 2014 (UTC)
• Support - The quality the User:ProtoDrake has brought these articles to is unbelievable. Literally, I am continually shocked by how much more detail he has found, especially in the Characters of article. I could see this topic eventually becoming all featured at the present trajectory. And User:PresN has also contributed mightily to this topic an all other Square Enix related. Great work as always! Judgesurreal777 (talk) 18:59, 19 June 2014 (UTC)

I feel this is a complete topic with appropriately high quality articles. --TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 21:21, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

P.S. I hope to get this topic to featured by year end.--TonyTheTiger (T / C / WP:FOUR / WP:CHICAGO / WP:WAWARD) 21:24, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

You don't need to duplicate "Four Freedoms (Norman Rockwell)"; just have the lead link and just the four paintings inside the box. --PresN 21:40, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

Contributor(s): WonderBoy1998

Any article directly related to the album topic has been included. All are good articles. Keeping this in mind I nominate it as a good topic --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 16:21, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

• Oppose for now. A few concerns about the Loca and Rabiosa articles:

• PopCrush (used in Rabiosa), PopDust (used in Addicted to You), Oh No They Didn't (used in Loca); Yahoo! Voices (it's user-contributed material), a Blogger blog (Dave's Music Database) from Loca are not reliable. I'd stay away from TheCelebrityCafe, Gossip Center, OK! Magazine, Bark Bite (never heard of it) and About.com as well;
• The Loca references are completely against what you taught me (websites aren't italicized, etc.); some iTunes Store references don't have 'Store' written on the publisher field;
• "Rabiosa" in the Loca article's infobox is italicized and without quotation marks;
• The first paragraph of Loca's "Background and composition" should be broken into two.
• "Lyrically, the song focuses on Shakira and El Cata, or Pitbull, singing about each other's sex appeal."

• Lyrically is redundant. How could it musically focus on them singing about their sex appeal?
• "focuses on [her and him or him] singing about each other's sex appeal" (awkward and not easy to read... maybe features its protagonists singing about (...))

Sorry, but we really have to make sure that these articles follow the GA guidelines; ping me when/if you correct these points. — prism △ 18:07, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

@Prism:I have addressed these issues, though I wish you had pointed out the Rabiosa problems when you were reviewing the article lol. Anyway I have also removed or replaced most of the sites you mentioned except TheCelebrityCafe, which I know is reliable even though its name sounds gossipy.(http://thecelebritycafe.com/press/thecelebritycafecom-turns-15, http://thecelebritycafe.com/press/thecelebritycafecom-receives-libns-40-under-40-award)

Sorry, I've learned a lot since I first started reviewing GAs. I give you my Support. — prism △ 16:32, 25 June 2014 (UTC)

Comments from WikiRedactor

• Shakira: Live from Paris should be relinked as Live from Paris (Shakira album).
• External links to be addressed in Sale el Sol, the title track, "Loca", "Antes de las Seis", "Addicted to You", "Rabiosa", "Islands", "Waka Waka", The Sun Comes Out World Tour, and Live from Paris.
• Some of the articles have references included in their introductions; if possible, I would like to see these citations moved into the body of the article.

Sale el Sol and "Antes de las Seis" include citations in the lead because they have quotes in the lead, and you need a source to know where the words came from. There are various articles that include one or two sources in lead (Kylie Minogue Rich Girl (Gwen Stefani song) Heat (perfume) Saga (comic book))

• The dates in the articles should follow a day-first format, since that is the standard used in Shakira's native Columbia.
• Can you trim the introduction for The Sun Comes Out World Tour?
• I also agree with the points that Prism brought up before my comments, and would like to see those corrected, as well.

I'll check back in after these corrections are made and I'll go from there! WikiRedactor (talk) 19:54, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

@WikiRedactor: Done all. Oh god believe me when I say I must have added archive links to almost 100 citations today. Ugh why did Shakira's archive website go off. --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 19:18, 25 June 2014 (UTC)

@WonderBoy1998: Good work with all the changes, I'm happy to give you my support! WikiRedactor (talk) 22:07, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

Comments from Magiciandude

Due to my health, I can't do a full review, but here are some things I picked up.

• On "Loca", you mentioned that is a Latin pop song, yet it is not mentioned or sourced in the body of the article or I might have missed it.

In the Background and composition section, there is a line " "Loca" is a Latin-pop song composed of horn-laden merengue beats combined with techno dance percussion beats"

• On "Antes de las Seis," is it Latin pop ballad or Latin ballad? The source you gave for genre gives me a 404 error.

It is a Latin pop ballad and that is mentioned in the lead, bg and composition section, and the infobox. The two sources given (http://northernarizonanews.com/blog/2010/10/28/soundcheck-shakiras-sale-el-sol/, http://web.archive.org/web/20121118102049/http://archive.shakira.com/news/title/antes-de-las-seis-to-be-shakiras-next-single) are working links.

Sorry I really wasn't paying attention. I'll go ahead and give my support. Erick (talk) 18:38, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

Thank you --WonderBoy1998 (talk) 19:06, 29 June 2014 (UTC)

• Support — All of the articles are GA. Simon (talk) 09:19, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
• Support — great work getting all of the articles to GA. All of the singles have articles, so nothing seems to be missing. ♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 16:33, 8 July 2014 (UTC)
• Support — I've checked the submitted articles, and all of them were promoted either in late 2013 or early 2014, which means there is little chance that some issue has emerged in the meantime. The prose is carefully written and surprisingly well researched, so I've got no reason to oppose the promotion.--Retrohead (talk) 17:56, 9 July 2014 (UTC)
