# Talk:Austria in the Eurovision Song Contest 2014

The article states that CW submitted five songs to ORF and ORF selected the song. This is wrong. In some interview in early 2014 she stated that they were still in the song-finding-process and they were down to about 5 choices. In later interviews she said that she got "Rise like a phoenix" very late and immediately decided that this was going to be her Eurovision song. ORF had nothing to say in the song-choice. (I'm not going to look for those interview now. Maybe when I am more bored.) Judith Sunrise (talk) 09:56, 1 August 2014 (UTC)

This article has been awaiting a review for far too long, so if it's okay I shall step into the role. In the spirit of disclosure, I should note that I have been a significant contributor to the Conchita Wurst article, so I have a prior familiarity and interest in the subject of this article. Best, Midnightblueowl (talk) 20:31, 23 June 2015 (UTC)

@Midnightblueowl: Does the nominator have to clean up the required prose, or may I do it on their behalf? Seeing as WikiProject Eurovision is a teamwork collaboration? Wes Mouse | T@lk 10:10, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
@Wesley Mouse: I don't mind at all if another editor goes through this article to clean up prose; there's no rule that says that the nominator has to be the one to do it. Best, Midnightblueowl (talk) 10:26, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
@Midnightblueowl: I'll do the clean-up now then. I am aware that the editor has also nominated Netherlands in the Eurovision Song Contest 2014 for GA review too, which is one of the 5 listed at the top of the GAN page. So I'll also look at that to see if there are similar clean-ups required. Wes Mouse | T@lk 10:41, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
@Midnightblueowl: I've done a copy-edit throughout the prose and cleaned up grammar and changed some wording from present to past tense. I've also changed "Contest" to "contest" where necessary. Also, {{Infobox song contest national year}} doesn't have the parameter built-in to support an image, as requested in your review. Please let me know if any other improvements are required. Regards, Wes Mouse | T@lk 11:42, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
Thanks for those edits, Wesley Mouse. I'd still like to hear from the nominator, particularly on the issue of Wurst's pronouns, before I go ahead and award the article GA status, however. Midnightblueowl (talk) 16:56, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
@Midnightblueowl: I had added text about Wurst's pronouns whilst doing the clean-up, which can be found at Austria in the Eurovision Song Contest 2014#Selection procedure, and reads as follows "Neuwirth, who uses masculine pronouns when referring to himself but feminine pronouns to describe Wurst, went on to developed his new drag persona and appeared on ORF's talent show Die große Chance". Hopefully this should cover the issue. Wes Mouse | T@lk 17:07, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
Thanks Wesley. Given that you seem to have covered all of my points and I haven't heard from the nominator, I think i tbest if I go ahead and pass this as a GA. Congratulations! Midnightblueowl (talk) 18:19, 25 June 2015 (UTC)
@Sims2aholic8: this GA nom requires your attention. Wes Mouse | T@lk 10:14, 24 June 2015 (UTC)
