Talk:Nobody Wants to Be Lonely

Oh my lord

The "chart success" section needs a huge overhaul. The biggest problems right now: (a) no citations; (b) it reads like a fansite. It all makes for a great story, and by my recollection of this single, much of it is likely true, but the information needs to be verifiable! Neutrality is also a minor issue -- at the very least, don't call Sony's move "sneaky!" 128.62.36.96 (talk) 08:22, 12 November 2009 (UTC)

GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Nobody Wants to Be Lonely/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reading now, comments follow soon! --Jens Lallensack (talk) 15:53, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

Lead

• The article is about three versions of this song, but it is not always completely clear to which of these versions information does relate:
  • infobox image could have a caption specifying the version
  • The accompanying music video was directed by American director Wayne Isham – Based on the previous sentence, this must be about the "original version of the song". However, I think it might be about the re-recorded version?
  • Why does the infobox only seems to be mostly about the duet version? (Information on the other versions seems incomplete)
  • while the production was handled by Walter Afanasieff. – but, according to the infobox, only of the duet album?
  • A Spanish-language solo version of the song, entitled "Sólo Quiero Amarte" – how was this released? Another single of the album?
• Danny Lopez – link in lead and body
  • I don't think there is an article for Danny Lopez. ResPM (T🔈🎵C) 19:08, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
    • OK, in that case, could you briefly introduce them (e.g., "music producer Danny Lopez" or whatever is the case, to get some idea who that is? --Jens Lallensack (talk) 19:34, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
• including Eli Zamora and Madeline Consoer – If they do not even have an article, are they relevant enough to be mentioned in the lead?

Main text

• the Latin American edition of the album. – same release date?
• December 2000, for the 11th – comma too much?
• in an online message – "online chat"?
  • The source says "online message", so it's best to leave it as it is. ResPM (T🔈🎵C) 19:08, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
    • Right, I misread the source. --Jens Lallensack (talk) 19:34, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
• Additionally, CD singles were launched – containing the duet?
• Musically, "Nobody Wants to Be Lonely" is a mid-tempo pop song and power ballad, – but only the duet, right? Ah, I see it is mentioned in the next sentence, but it should specify "duet version" right in this sentence here I think, otherwise it confuses.
• I think we need to attribute all quotes to their respective author: is a love song about "heartbreak" and "longing" and following.
• and noted it "perfect" performance – "its perfect performance" or "it perfects performance"? --Jens Lallensack (talk) 18:02, 9 January 2022 (UTC)
• I would love to know more about the actual music: Key, metre, instruments used, etc?
• it is Martin's most recent number-one single – We should avoid "recent" per MOS:RELTIME
• a historical castle – that is not a castle, that might be a palace. The big question is: Which place? Isn't there any source that specifies this?

• Unfortunately there is no data about the exact place, all we know is that it was filmed somewhere in Florida. And about "castle" or "palace", it is actually defined as a "castle" in the source. I am going to add this reference too, which has named it a "castle" as well. آرمین هویدایی (talk) 17:18, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

• The music video seems to have been shot the Miami Biltmore Hotel. Not a castle at all. I don't have a reliable source at hand, and if you can't find one, please just remove the word "castle" here, it is definitely a mistake. --Jens Lallensack (talk) 19:42, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

• That's it! Please ping me once my above suggestions are addressed! --Jens Lallensack (talk) 18:28, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

Jens Lallensack Thanks for devoting your time on it. We have addressed the issues. آرمین هویدایی (talk) 18:36, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Thanks! One open point left (the "castle") which I think really needs fixing, after that I am ready to promote! --Jens Lallensack (talk) 19:42, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

@Jens Lallensack: Should I change it to "palace"?

No, its not a palace either (my first guess was wrong), it is the Miami Biltmore Hotel (which has been a hotel from the start) … But we can't state this without a source, unfortunately. Without a source, I think you have to change to "building", because only this is covered by the existing sources (hotels and castles are both buildings). --Jens Lallensack (talk) 20:12, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

Comments

آرمین هویدایی, I've struck the items I've taken care of and will start adding any links to the Credits section. If you add more linked personnel to the body, please remember to de-link them later. Please ping me if you have any comments. ResPM (T🔈🎵C) 19:08, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

Okay, that's taken care of. You should double-check them to make sure I didn't link the wrong person by accident. ResPM (T🔈🎵C) 19:28, 9 January 2022 (UTC)

ResolutionsPerMinute Thank you for helping me on this article, I have no further comments. I will just add a newly published ranking list to the music video section now. آرمین هویدایی (talk) 17:18, 11 January 2022 (UTC)

@آرمین هویدایی: Looks good, as does the rest of the article. If you're all set, ping the review so they can check it out. ResPM (T🔈🎵C) 17:55, 11 January 2022 (UTC)
