Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 22:56, 31 March 2021 (UTC)


### Basic stuff and comments
Infobox looks good.
I switched to {{infobox company}}, seems to work better. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:19, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
"manufacturerd" is a typo.
Fixed. As a suggestion, if you spot an obvious typo (this one caused by some last minute lead adjustments less than 24 hours ago), the best thing to do is just fix it directly. If I hadn't fixed it, I'm certain somebody else would have done not too long afterward. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:19, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
Add serial commas after "harpsichords" and Genesis' Tony Banks.
Are you sure that's grammatically correct? It's been a long time (well, several decades) since I was studying formal English at school, but my recollection was you never put a comma before the final "and" in a list. Can you cite something from the MOS? Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:19, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
@Ritchie333: It's a serial comma issue (WP:Oxford comma) which states phrases listing two or more things should have a comma before the "and". It's grammatically correct with American English, which should be used as this article discusses topics from the U.S. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 00:02, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
Oh right. Always get confused with non BrEng stuff. Anyway, all instances (think it's just the three mentioned here) done. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 12:00, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
@Ritchie333: Commas are still needed after "harpsichords", "the Lovin' Spoonful", and Stevie Wonder. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 12:30, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
*sigh* Done. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 12:33, 2 April 2021 (UTC)
Try expanding the lead, and mentioning when the corporation went defunct.
According to WP:LEADLENGTH, an article of this size (about 9,000 bytes of prose) should have about two paragraphs, so I think the lead is about right. I've expanded it a little, though
"less voices" → "fewer voices"
D'oh, fixed Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:19, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
Remove the comma after "sixty-eight keys".
Done, also changed "sixty-eight" to 68 to be consistent with other key descriptions in the article.
Add a serial comma after "phaser".
Also add serial commas after "the Lovin' Spoonful", Stevie Wonder, and Mike Pinder.
See above. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:19, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
Remove the comma after "Hammond organ".
Done Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:19, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
Archive sources (either manually or with this tool).
If it's okay with you, can we wait for the usual bot to do this? It seems to do the job well, probably better than I would manually. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 11:19, 1 April 2021 (UTC)
