The name of the single is WILD / Dr. Why is WILD not completely capitalized vinyabarion

I believe it's because Wikipedia has guidelines for capitalization of Japanese titles. Sometimes, Japanese song titles can have odd capitalization (LIKE this for ExamplE). It's to keep everything in order. 68.164.35.186 (talk) 01:09, 4 May 2009 (UTC)Reply

"Wild/Dr." is not a song, but two songs. These should be shown as "Wild" / "Dr.".
Most details pertaining to "Dr." should be in a separate article, Dr. (Namie Amuro song), as the article is about a different song, Wild.
selective-hearing.com and the randomjpop blogspot blog are all blogs, they should be replaced with better sources that aren't self-published as per WP:USERGENERATED.
The article calls the release a double a-side, and Dr. a B-side at the same time. The sources used, such as this one call it 両A面作, meaning you should consistently refer to "Dr." as an A-side.
"have been included on two concert tours" -> performed at
Albums and singles such as Best Fiction should have a release year in brackets next to them, unless the release date is in the prose.
"theme songs for Coca-Cola Zero and a Vidal Sassoon commercial.[3]" Check plurals and articles.
Minchio (spelling)
There's some composition info, but a lot more is needed in the article, such as the tempo, time signature, key and a description of the lyrical content.
There are no mentions of Amuro's opinion on the work. Ideally an interview she gave during the single or Past<Future promotions that mention her thoughts on her song would be a part of the article. A quick google search gives me this interview and this one, which would be good places to start from.
The article lacks multimedia content other than the cover artwork. I don't think there are any free images of Michio or T.Kura, so an audio sample or an image relating to the song in some way would benefit the article (perhaps an image of Janet Jackson due to the video similarity comments?).
There's no mention of critical reception in Japan, which is a little off for a number one single in Japan. This review and this review should be incorporated.
"for exceeding 100,000 ringtone sales." Not in source (and ringtones start being certified at 500k). 着うたフル is a full-length format.
"Amuro uploaded a video that" I don't think she did it personally.
What's the difference between 'Worldwide digital release' and 'Digital single' formats? Also I'm not sure the CD/DVD format is accurate as a six track list, since it's a two disc release (four tracks, two videos).
There are many sources of information that haven't been incorporated into the article, such as the Coca-Cola interview, and the response by Maori groups and the NZRU. I don't think the article's coverage is broad enough as it stands.
Many of the sources don't list their publishers, such as the Sanspo article and the direct references to products (Namie Amuro Best Fiction tour 2008-2009 (Live album and DVD). Namie Amuro. 2009.).

I'm sorry, but I think the issues here are too big to put the article on hold. I'm going to have to give it a failing grade for now, but if you fix it up and re-submit it then I'll be glad to take another look. Good luck! --Prosperosity (talk) 07:33, 1 September 2015 (UTC)Reply
