Infobox and lead

edit
  • Infobox looks good!
  • "for Tei's studio album" → "for Tei's fifth studio album,"
  • "It was originally recorded as" → "The song was originally recorded as"
  • "The track remained unfinished for" → "It remained unfinished for"
  • For consistency, only use the song instead of the track
  • "In "Sometime Samurai", a" → "In it, a"
  • Mention the ceremony separately from the MTV Award's name and wikilink it too
  • "Tei played "Sometime Samurai" during" → "Tei played the song during"

Background and recording

edit
  • First para looks good!
  • "Despite the smooth collaboration" should either use the plural collaborations or collaboration process
  • "Scotland, and the UK." → "Scotland and the UK." unless the comma is a rule in Japanese
  • The word either is not used by the source
  • "for three hours." → "for around three hours."

Production and composition

edit
  • Img looks good!
  • ""Sometime Samurai" is a" → "Musically, "Sometime Samurai" is a" but where are these genres sourced?
Tei said the song is rock to him and Grunebaum noted its house beat. Damian Vo (talk) 15:48, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • Pipe Japanese Curry to Japanese curry
  • "Wave era," highlighting its" → "Wave era", highlighting its" per MOS:QUOTE
  • Lowercase the Knacks per MOS:THEMUSIC
  • "mark the first inclusion" → "marked the first inclusion"
  • "of "Sometime Samurai," Tei" → "of "Sometime Samurai", Tei"
  • "with the line" → "with the lyrics,"
  • "drew a comparison" shouldn't this info all be present tense per it being a book?
  • "Baker further suggested that" → "He further suggested that"

Release and promotion

edit
  • "In November, remixes of" → "In November 2005, remixes of"
  • No reviews to be added?
Those two reviews are the only sources I could find since SM is only a promo single in Japan, and Tei did not release Flash in the US. Damian Vo (talk) 15:18, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • Img looks good!
  • Shouldn't the author review use present tense?
  • "from February to May." → "from February to May 2005." per this being a new para
  • Rest soon; sorry I don't have the time to finish today.
Thank you so much for reviewing this. I addressed the issues you mentioned above. There is no rush on this, so please take your time :D Damian Vo (talk) 15:34, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
That is fine, I am glad you understood me moving the remainder of this review to today! --K. Peake 18:24, 29 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • Wikilink music video
  • Baring in mind WP:TVPLOT, could you not add more info that you know about the video?
Sadly the only "legit" reference about the video I could find is Andrew's, which is 2 sentences long. Damian Vo (talk) 01:45, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
  • "Minogue did not appear" → "Minogue does not appear"
  • Again, should comma be used before "and" in Japanese?
  • "of "GBI (German Bold Italic)," and" → "of "GBI (German Bold Italic)", and" plus mention it was staff for those reviews
  • The source does not mention The O2 Arena
The O2 Arena is mentioned on the front cover artwork of the DVD, hence the media note. Damian Vo (talk) 01:45, 30 August 2023 (UTC)Reply
