Picking this up for a review!
Infobox and lead
- Remove the short description, start date and duration templates as they're all redundant
- Don't think "of Snow Patrol" is necessary
- It's the official credit printed on the CD's notes. Ippantekina (talk) 02:19, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
- "taken from Swift's" → "taken from the former's" to avoid repetition as the next sentence begins with Swift
- "lattermost" → "latter"
- "latter" is used for two objects so "lattermost" is preferable imo. Ippantekina (talk) 02:19, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
- "Aiming to experiment with..." → this sentence is quite long, maybe try to split it?
- For consistency, you should either have Nashville or Nashville, Tennessee here and in the body
- "the refrain" → "the chorus"
- May I ask why? Refrain is fine imo. Ippantekina (talk) 02:19, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
- "In the lyrics" → "Lyrically"
- Link music critics to Music journalism instead
- I'm not sure; I adhered to WP:NOTBROKEN that we do not fix redirect links in certain cases. Ippantekina (talk) 02:19, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
Background and release
- See above for Nashville
- ""The Last Time" is track number 10..." → not sure if this is necessary as it seems quite irrelevant
- Isn't November 11 the release date? Ref 10 just lists several singles while ref 11 gives an exact date
- Neither source states that Big Machine released it as a single
- The ref doesn't state that they performed the song on The X-Factor
- Are there more live performances of the song?
Composition and lyrics
- "it is an alternative rock, following" → a word is missing here
- "refrain" → "chorus"
Critical reception
- Rename it to "Critical reception and commercial performance" and insert the commercial performance paragraph as it's quite short
- There are three paragraphs in the Critical reception section now, so I don't see it as a great idea. Ippantekina (talk) 02:19, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
- There's a lot of repetition of "[reviewer] of [publication]" and "[reviewer] from [publication]" please fix it
- "and vocals:" → "and vocals, stating:"
- Link Taste of Country to Townsquare Media#Web publications and services
- Ditto per WP:NOBROKEN. Ippantekina (talk) 02:19, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
- For Clayton-Lea's review, I think you should specify that both this song and "Everything Has Changed" were deemed "desperate attempts"
Commercial performance
- See above
- "After Red was released" → "Upon Red's release"
- "After its UK single release" → WP:OR as it's not explicitly given by the source
- "for the week of November 10–16, 2013." → "for the week of November 10, 2013."
- No need to mention the peak positions in Ireland and Scotland, saying they charted in the top 20 is good enough
Personnel
- Tidal ref is dead, can it be replaced with the album's liner notes?
Charts
- "2012–13" → "2012–2013" per MOS:DATERANGE
"The Last Time (Taylor's Version)"
- Remove duration and start date templates
- "under Republic Records imprint" → don't think "imprint" is necessary
- "on November 11, 2012" → "on November 11, 2021"
- Move the refs for the peak positions at the end of the sentence
Personnel
- The div col templates aren't needed as less than 20 people contributed to the song
Charts
- Isn't it possible to use Template:Singlechart for Canada?
- I added it manually to re-use the Canadian chart for the original version as well. If we use {{single chart}} then we will have two duplicate refs, which I don't favor. Ippantekina (talk) 02:19, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
References
- Source check: 8, 9, 10, 11, 13, 14, 15, 23, 28, 32
- AllMusic should be tagged as the publisher for ref 4
- Ref 7 is missing access-date
- Ref 9 is dead
- Why are refs 14 and 15 tagged with url-access=limited?
- Tag ref 23 with via=Newspapers.com
- Ref 26 is missing the date
- Link Billboard for ref 31
- Link Alexis Petridis for ref 32
- I'll AGF for the Perone source
- The ProQuest sources look kind of awkward with the id and via parameters, maybe keep one and remove the other?
Outcome
On hold for seven days until all issues are fixed! Sebbirrrr (talk) 22:20, 19 September 2022 (UTC)
- I have responded to some of your comments above and will proceed within the next days! Ippantekina (talk) 02:19, 20 September 2022 (UTC)
