Merger proposal

I propose to merge "RoboCop (song)" into 808s & Heartbreak. I think that the content in the "RoboCop" article can easily be included on 808s & Hertbreak, and the 808s & Hertbreak article is of a reasonable size that the merging of "RoboCop" will not cause many problems as far as article size is concerned.

• Oppose This article is detailed enough and long enough to stand alone. I also don't agree with the statement that a merge "will not cause many problems as far as article size in concerned." This article is about 900 words (using the DYK tool). The album article is a little over 5000 words. Which means that with a full merge this song would represent about 1/6 of the album article. That would be undue weight. Rlendog (talk) 22:25, 16 January 2020 (UTC)

• Add a short description to the top of the article.

•  Done --K. Peake 05:15, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

• "due to having wrote" – reword

•  Done to make the sentence less repetitive, if this works? --K. Peake 05:15, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

• "from 1990 film" → "from the 1990 film"
• Remove the comma after "recorded in Los Angeles".

•  Done for the above --K. Peake 05:15, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

• Per MOS:TIES, articles tackling "American" subjects or topics related to it such be written using American English. I have been told that this also applies to songs, albums, and overall any type of music created by American musicians. As a result, I would suggest changing the following:

• "The orchestra were" → "The orchestra was"
• "Cancelled" → "Canceled"
• "modeller" → "modeler"

•  Done for the above --K. Peake 05:15, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

• "favourite" → "favorite"

•  Done but I did know which was the American spelling of this and someone else had actually added this fact in then I forgot to change the word --K. Peake 05:15, 29 July 2021 (UTC)
• I am aware of the rules about American English for articles related to Americans, though I made a few mistakes because I'm used to my native British English so don't know the American version too strongly. --K. Peake 05:15, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

• Sources are archived.

• Thankfully, as the tool was blocking me from archiving initially like it sometimes does. --K. Peake 05:15, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

• Mark references from The New York Times with "|url-access=limited".

•  Done --K. Peake 05:15, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

• Mark references from Rolling Stone with "|url-access=limited".

•  Partly done I used subscription in the parameter instead of limited because this is the actual access rule. --K. Peake 05:15, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

...but Rolling Stone has a limited article counter for new users. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 13:11, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

@Some Dude From North Carolina: Oh I did not know that since I'm not subbed, fixed! --K. Peake 14:00, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

• Ping when done. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 19:22, 28 July 2021 (UTC)

• @Some Dude From North Carolina: Completed everything I think, ready for GA-status now? --K. Peake 05:15, 29 July 2021 (UTC)

Improved to Good Article status by Kyle Peake (talk). Self-nominated at 09:22, 31 July 2021 (UTC).

• Article was nominated for DYK within seven days of reaching GA status. There are more than 1,500 characters in prose. The tone is neutral and paragraphs are given proper inline citations. I found no copyright issues. QPQ is done. ALT2 is best worded in my opinion. lullabying (talk) 21:10, 31 July 2021 (UTC)
