Talk:Preis der deutschen Schallplattenkritik

Rewrite Feb 4, 2012

Some issues/reasons/questions:

• the references I used are the official website and the official award rules.
  • both are listed in "external links". Add them as references, too? Would be more or less "one sentence = one [a](, [b], [c], ...)" throughout the article, if done consistently.
  • both are in German language. Any problems with that?
• I'm not a native speaker; there might be some glitches in spelling, grammar, and/or style.
• I'm not really content with the structuring I did, but can't find a better way right now.
• I stopped adding wikilinks when I got to "interpretation". I didn't find any Wikipedia article covering interpretaion as used in music context ("Semantics" would be kind of OK, but no one would understand why he/she landed there after clicking on "interpretation" in music context). Is there any article I didn't think of? If no, I'll link to the not yet existing article "interpretation (music)".
• main reasons for rewriting:
  • it's really and officially one award in two levels, not an annual award with "also" a quarterly list
  • quite some wordings that are mistakable (at least)
  • roughly 25% of the article were sentences referring to artists (for un-orphaning other articles, as examples, and/or -possibly- for sheer PR). I put them out, because naming six award recipients out of 2000+ gives an disproportional importance to those six. There are more than 60 artists and producers who got a lifetime award, there are more than 140 jury members - I can't see any way to name examples in a representative manner.

I'll give the article the once-over soon, but would appreciate any feedback and/or help and/or editing.
