  • @Nice4What: I came by to promote this and there is one small issue. MOS:LEAD states, "Apart from basic facts, significant information should not appear in the lead if it is not covered in the remainder of the article." Jesus Is King is only mentioned in the lead.

Credits[edit]

@RodeoWrld: Any source for the new songwriters/producers you altered? Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Thanks ) 15:44, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

User:Nice4What They were never new, they've always been there. Not sure what you're talking about. Thanks. RodeoWrld (talk) 19:10, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@RodeoWrld: "Always been there"... Been where? If you're talking about Qobuz, your edit removed the citation so all songwriters/producers were uncited. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Thanks ) 19:19, 17 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
User:Nice4What No I'm definitely not talking about Qobuz, I never even used that as a source ever. The credits are pretty much the same across all platforms like Spotify, YouTube and Tidal that display credits, Qobuz isn't the only platform that exclusively show credits. I think you're confused. RodeoWrld (talk) 18:02, 18 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@RodeoWrld: Yes, I was confused because you didn't provide a source! I usually use Tidal but the song was never uploaded to that platform. Spotify credits are also only available to members. I almost never use Qobuz, but it was cited by another user at the time that the credits/personnel were added to this article. Nice4What (talk · contribs) – (Thanks ) 15:50, 21 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

The Ultimate Boss Any updates on this? --K. Peake 20:30, 12 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Well written:
    1. the prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct;
    2. it complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
  2. Verifiable with no original research:
    1. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline;
  • wikilink for Triple J on ref 16
  • remove wikilink for Triple J on ref 18
  •  Done for the above --K. Peake 06:11, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
    1. all in-line citations are from reliable sources, including those for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines;
    2. it contains no original research; and
    3. it contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism.
  1. Broad in its coverage:
    1. it addresses the main aspects of the topic; and
    2. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
  • How is "Based on the platform's community guidelines, the video was age-restricted" important to the article?
  • It was reported on West's official Vevo channel, doesn't this qualify notability? --K. Peake 06:11, 15 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  1. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
  2. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
  3. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
    1. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content; and
    2. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
  4. Overall
