Hi, @AskeeaeWiki. I will be reviewing this article perhaps starting now (because today I'm going to my church's connection group, so my schedule is a little tight) to give you 2 GAs. Now I'm a little more confident in reviewing what happened in I Feel It Coming. Thank you for being so kind to me in the process. I assume you're sleeping for now, so I'll take the opportunity to put in as many observations as possible to speed up the process. Santi (talk) 17:07, 6 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox

Since I realize that Trilogy is a compilation album, there is no need to mention it.

Background and production

"As McKinney played the Weeknd instrumentals for consideration" => "As McKinney played songs to the Weeknd for consideration"
Done
Replace in ref 4 "cbc.ca" to "CBC". Wikilink.
Link Billboard on ref 5.
Done
Add info about the song's inclusion on both album.
Done
"On November 13, 2012, it was reissued as a part of his compilation album, Trilogy." => "Afterwards, it was included on the Weeknd's compilation album, Trilogy, on November 13, 2012."
Done
Link compilation album.
Done

Music and lyrics

Reference 6 does not explicitly mention about a party. That's more what Billboard did.
Done
Move the ref 5 from "at the end" to "to sex."
Done
Move ref 1 from infobox to this section and complement the prose with it, which says that the song is alternative R&B. That source also needs authorship.
Done
Link Impact.
Done
Authorship for ref 8 (Daria Paterek)
Done

Critical reception

"Pitchfork later placed it on its list of top 100 songs of 2011 at #57, with Eric Grandy saying it was "Tesfaye at his best, emoting in a androgynous falsetto one minute, muttering unbelievable curses the next." " => "They later ranked it at number 57 on their list of Top 100 Songs, with Eric Grandy saying it was "Tesfaye at his best, emoting in a androgynous falsetto one minute, muttering unbelievable curses the next." " Since the name of the author of the first Pitchfork article is not mentioned in this article, this practice is acceptable.
Done
Change template to "cite magazine" in ref 7 and move "Rolling Stone" from "author1" to "magazine".
Done
"Rolling Stone declared "House of Balloons / Glass Table Girls" as the Weeknd's 9th best track, " => "ranked"
Done
"Rolling Stone placed the first part of the song at #488 on its 2021 and 2024 edition of the 500 best songs of all time." => "They also ranked its first part 488th on their 2021 revision of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time." Move to the next paragraph.
Done
Problems with ref 12.
Done
"Complex further wrote" => "They further wrote"
Done
Reuse ref 13 after "melancholic R&B." and add authorship.
Done

Live performances

"The Weeknd performed the song for his first ever show in the United States." Is it another show or the Coachella one?
It is the Coachella one, I cleared that up.
Link "Billboard" in ref 15.
Done
Fix ref 21.
Done

Personnel

Modify the structure of the reference a little. "{{cite web|url=https://music.apple.com/us/song/house-of-balloons-glass-table-girls-original/1558942156|title=House of Balloons / Glass Table Girls (Original)|website=[[Apple Music]]|access-date=April 5, 2024}}" => "{{cite web |publisher=[[Apple Music]] |title=House of Balloons / Glass Table Girls (Original){{spaced ndash}}Song by The Weeknd |url=https://music.apple.com/us/song/house-of-balloons-glass-table-girls-original/1558942156 |access-date=April 7, 2024 |url-status=live}}" Can it be archived?
Partly done: When I attempted to archive it, the website did not load.

Believe me. There are times when my English listening becomes terrible. I say this because I listened to the Tom Power podcast episode referenced from the article, and I didn't hear the words "freestyle" and "demo", at least not explicitly. So, since you're a very honest editor, then I'll assume that part is fine. Santi (talk) 20:01, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I will replace this, the Glass Table Girls demo is not mentioned and 25 minute-"House of Balloons" is not noted as a freestyle. 𝘮𝘪𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘦𝘭'𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘺, 20:20, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
OK. I'll make slight edits to the prose and approve the article at once. Santi (talk) 21:43, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@AskeeaeWiki: Before passing the article, I would like to know your opinion on the new summary of the article. We're practically done! Santi (talk) 23:07, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Pollosito All looks good! I see you're reviewing the article for "You're Losing Me", so good luck! I usually listen to the song while reviewing or expanding an article, it helped me a lot for both I Feel It Coming and Classy 101! You're a great reviewer, and I'm glad you're starting to become more confident! 𝘮𝘪𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘦𝘭'𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘢𝘳 𝘮𝘦𝘭𝘢𝘯𝘤𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘺, 23:11, 7 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
