Infobox

edit
  • An alt needs to be provided for the cover image
  • Stay consistent with your format of the flatlists
  • Remove the red links for "Nunca es Suficiente" and "Lo Que Construimos"

Lead

edit

Paragraph 1

edit
  • State that "Down to the Root" in English, like "(English: Down to the Root)"
  • Add ", recorded for her studio album, Hasta la Raíz (2015)."

Paragraph 2

edit
  • Expand this paragraph

Background

edit
  • The first sentence is kind of long, but I don't really see how you could shorten it
  • Remove '(Mexico)'; it's not necessary in the context
  • Change 'seven' to 'six' years

Writing and recording

edit

Paragraph 1

edit
  • Link 'Mexico'
  • The sentence that starts with "While recording demos..." is too long and includes too many clauses

Paragraph 2

edit
  • The lead sentence could be shortened; you don't have to include how they became friends during the recording process
  • Add an author to the Billboard source if available

Critical and commercial reception

edit
  • Separate these into two separate paragraphs; one for critical reception and another for commercial reception

Paragraph 1

edit
  • Change the lead sentence to "Upon its release, "Hasta la Raíz" received positive reviews from music critics."
  • Change 'coincident' to 'in agreement'

Paragraph 2

edit
  • Remove the link to "Nunca Es Suficiente"
  • Move each source in the second sentence to its respective statement (after each comma)

Music video

edit
  • Try adding a photo of the music video
  • Perhaps, add a small description of the music video as well

Track listing

edit
  • Remove the 'Writer(s)' and 'Producer(s)' section in the track listing; you've already labeled this information in the infobox above

Credits and personnel

edit
  • Remove the ';' from each credit
  • Use proper n dashes instead of hyphens

References

edit
  • [6] - Link iTunes store
  • [8] - Link Discogs
  • [12] - Link Billboard
  • [13] - Use a proper n dash
  • [13] - Link Spotify

Another good article, but definitely needs some work before passing GA status. I will put the article on hold until problems and addressed and corrections are made. Thanks, Carbrera (talk) 21:27, 5 March 2016 (UTC).Reply

Critical reception

edit
  • I know I said to say "upon", but "After" would sound better with the current tense
FIXED. Javier Espinoza (talk) 01:39, 1 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Commercial reception

edit
  • "was released as the first promotional single from the..." → "was released as a promotional single from the..."
FIXED. Javier Espinoza (talk) 01:39, 1 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Track listing

edit
  • You only include the download for a version called "Canova's Root"; is there a normal download for the album version/single version?
There used to be one, on iTunes, but after the relase of the whole album, the single download is no longer available as a "single". Javier Espinoza (talk) 01:39, 1 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Overall, a very good article. Most of these comments are regarding tense/grammar. Once fixed, the article will surely pass. Thanks again! Carbrera (talk) 22:40, 31 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
