### Infobox and lead
The songwriters are not directly sourced anywhere in the body as they should be
Wikilink Philipp Kirkovov in the lead
"to select Russian entrant." → "to select the Russian entrant."
To avoid the lead being too cluttered, you should start a new para at Vocal Band
"due to the band members being" → "due to the members being"
Wikilink music video
I think it is worth noting that the placing was their worst result

### Background
Introduce RTR and ORT by their full names per this being the first mentions in the body
"which will represent Russia" → "which would represent Russia"

### Before Eurovision
#### Evrovidenie "Pesnya-95"
Wikilink Philipp Kirkorov on the img text
"jury came to" → "the jury came to"

Table looks good!


#### Internal selection
"due to the group's members inability" → "due to the members' inability"
Wikilink Philip Kirkorov
Wikilink music video
"to the public on 30 April 1995" → "to the public the next day"
Everything's done - Danilmay (talk) 00:02, 8 August 2023 (UTC)


### At Eurovision
Img looks good!
Pipe previous year's contest to Eurovision Song Contest 1994
"participation in 1994 contest" → "participation in the 1994 contest"
"didn't participate in 1994 contest." → "didn't participate in this contest."
"in 1994 contest," → "in the 1994 contest," but where is this 17 part sourced?
"Philipp Kirkorov took part in" → "Kirkorov took part in"
"on 8 and 10 May," → "on 8 and 10 May 1995,"
"wearing white shirt and" → "wearing a white shirt and"
"was the Russia's worst placing" → "was Russia's worst placing"
"had won the contest;" → "had emerged as winners;"
"the Russian singer."" only keep inside speech marks if this is a full sentence per MOS:QUOTE

#### Voting
"for 1995 contest," → "for the Eurovision Song Contest 1995," since this is a new sub section
"to the ten highest-ranking songs" → "to the 10 highest-ranking songs" per MOS:NUM
"assembled 16-member jury panel," → "assembled a 16-member jury panel,"

K. Peake, I've made almost all the changes you've requested. Only I had one question (added above). Danilmay (talk) 00:02, 8 August 2023 (UTC)

Danilmay MOS:QWQ issues are when you have used double speech marks inside reference titles; replace with singular ones ('). --K. Peake 15:17, 8 August 2023 (UTC)
