References[edit]

Can we add a references section? "Now I'm all for you like Janet." <-- lyric reference in Taylor Swift's song "Snow on the Beach" from her 2022 album, Midnights. Buffyinfaith (talk) 17:14, 17 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Buffyinfaith: First of all, there is a "References" section. It's for the citations. Secondly, a simple lyrical allusion does not establish enough notability to mention this in the article. It should only be put in the article if enough attention has been brought to "All for You", i.e. it experiences a resurgence of interest/popularity. See WP:IPC.

Wikibreak[edit]

@11JORN: I see on your talk page that you're taking a wikibreak, so I'm not sure if you're available to respond to the edits I've made thus far. I'll give it a week and some change to see if there's a response and then continue making suggestions. benǝʇᴉɯ 20:10, 10 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Benmite Hey there! Recently, I actually manage to do some GAR edits and incorporated some of the recommendations above. I'd be more than happy to help assist @11JORN in regards to completing the GAR on their behalf. Dcdiehardfan (talk) 22:07, 14 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That's great, thanks Dcdiehardfan! benǝʇᴉɯ 19:41, 15 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Final comments[edit]

I'm going to fail this one for now, mostly due to inactivity. I should have been more diligent with having things suggested on time, though I think once the nominator is back from their break, it should be okay to be renominated and I can finish the edits. benǝʇᴉɯ 00:49, 27 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Benmite, don't forget to submit this and any other reviews you did this month to the backlog drive! -- asilvering (talk) 00:26, 1 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
