Hi!  I love this song, so I will review this article.  Basilisk4u (talk) 00:19, 16 December 2011 (UTC)


### Notes
Lead
"'Gorgeous' is a Hip-hop song by recording artist Kanye West..." hip hop doesn't need to be capitalized
 Done Mordecairule 16:26, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
Too many uses of "the song" in the lead, try "Gorgeous" or "the track"
 Done Mordecairule 16:26, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
"You Showed Me" should be in quotes
 Done Mordecairule 16:26, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
"The song received positive reviews from music critics, with praise given to Kanye's lyricism and the production." "..music critics, who praised West's lyricism and the production."
 Done Mordecairule 16:26, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
"Gorgeous" in the first sentence of the second paragraph should be in quotes, not italics
 Done Mordecairule 16:26, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
Billboard should be in italics
 Done Mordecairule 16:26, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
There are lots of citations in the lead, these are not needed if they are backed up in the article's body
 Done Bruce Campbell (talk) 06:00, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
Background
"acclaimed member of the Wu-Tang Clan" This sounds a bit biased, just say "Raekwon, of the Wu-Tang Clan..."
 Done Mordecairule 16:26, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
Composition and lyrics
In the description of the music sample, it says "A 30 second sample of "Gorgeous" which features Kanye West rapping out various social issues, with a notable guitar riff notable in the background." It should be "rapping about", and the second use of "notable" should be removed.  Also, there is no source for him rapping about "social issues"
 Done Bruce Campbell (talk) 06:00, 6 January 2012 (UTC)
Reception
"Gorgeous has received positive reviews from music critics, and was considered as a highlight of My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy with extra praise given to the lyrics."  "Gorgeous" should be in quotes, while My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy should be in italics.  Also, the "extra praise given to the lyrics" sounds a bit strange, consider rewording this.

Overall, this is a well done article.  It just needs a few corrections before it can be passed.  Good work and sorry for the long wait for the review! Basilisk4u (talk) 17:28, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
I'm sorry for being late to the party on my own GA nomination, but no one ever informed me about the review, otherwise I would have been the one to personally address the issues. I am very grateful towards Mordecairule for his help here though, I appreciate the assistance. I've corrected the remaining things and I believe the article now adheres to the reviewers standards. Bruce Campbell (talk) 06:00, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

The issues were addressed, but since the reviewer's disappeared, I'll step in and pass the article. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 17:12, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
