Infobox and lead

Change the genre in the infobox to Country, since that is directly stated but neotraditional country isn't, currently violating WP:STICKTOSOURCE
Separate producers using bullet points instead per Template:Infobox album
"American neotraditional country artist Jon Pardi, released on June 17, 2016 through" → "American country singer Jon Pardi. It was released on June 17, 2016. through" with the target
"of his 2014 debut effort Write You a Song," → "of his debut studio album, Write You a Song (2014),"
"more traditional aspects while" → "more traditional aspects of the genre while"
"Reviews for the record were positive, with critics praising Pardi's production" → "The album received positive reviews from music critics, who often praised the production" with the target
Start a new para after the critical reception sentence and that should begin with the singles sentence, though the rest of the info following the reception sentence should be in the same order outside of this while also being in the second para
"debuted at number one on the Top Country Albums chart and number 11 on the Billboard 200, giving Pardi his only number-one" → "debuted at number 11 on the US Billboard 200 and number one on the Top Country Albums chart, giving Pardi his only chart-topping" and this should be the second sentence of the para
"was certified platinum" → "was certified platinum in the United States"
"after moving..." remove this part
"It spawned five singles:" → "The accompanying singles"
"and "Night Shift"." → "and "Night Shift" were released."

"reviews from critics who" → "reviews from critics, who"
"To promote the record, he spent the rest of the year" → "To promote the album, Pardi spent the rest of 2014"
"across North America and" maybe it should be the United States if he toured across there, but where are this and the talk shows part backed up?
"of his 2015 EP The B-Sides, 2011–2014," → "of his debut EP The B-Sides, 2011–2014 in 2015,"
Wikilink country music

"band as Pardi wanted the feel" → "band, as Pardi wanted to create the feel"
"The album was co-produced by Bart Butler who" → "California Sunrise was co-produced by Bart Butler, who"
The release section should be moved to Singles and promotion as the first sentence; I will tell you to retitle that section later in this review

Track listing

See MOS:TABLECAPTION
Why are no producers listed? Is it not known who produced which tracks?
Pardi → Jon Pardi on the first mention here only

Most country albums with two or more producers are usually assumed that they produced all of the tracks (i.e. Brett Eldredge's Sunday Drive and Pardi's Heartache Medication). DepressedPer (talk) 01:45, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Adapted from the album's liner notes. → Credits adapted from the album's liner notes.
Wikilink Jon Pardi

Target Hammond B-3 organ to Hammond organ

Charts

Year-end charts

See MOS:TABLECAPTION
All of these years should be in separate tables, since that makes sortable less confusing even if it is tiring for them to be separated
Top Country Albums (Billboard) → US Top Country Albums (Billboard) on every listing

Final comments and verdict

On hold since there are a number of issues but the article is not too large so they can be fixed within a week I believe; also, I did some copy editing for a few issues that were not pointed out directly here but had relevance to those mentioned! --K. Peake 13:24, 23 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]

DepressedPer Good job, even though you forgot to mark references as done. ✓ Pass time now! --K. Peake 06:05, 24 October 2020 (UTC)[reply]
