Talk:Arthur (Or the Decline and Fall of the British Empire)

message: As requested, here is a second look at the article. I made some copyedits as I read, please revert if I made errors or made things worse.
*In the lead however, the play was cancelled and never produced might be confusing as a play is usually on stage - would a word other than play that makes it clearer it was for television help? however, the television program was cancelled and never produced? This might be an American Ebglish vs. British English issue
*In The first tracks worked on were "Drivin'", intended as their next single release, and "Mindless Child Of Motherhood"... since the latter track does not appear on the album (at least under that name) I think it has to be explained.
*Say which relaese date is meant here (album or TV play) As problems with the TV play got progressively worse—and, consequently, distracted The Kinks from completing the post-production of the album—the release date was pushed further and further back.[7][14] 
*The article has two fair-use images and two fair-use sound clips. The sound clips seem fine, and the cover art in the infobox is standard for an album article, but I wonder if more text is needed for the Quenn Victoria gatefold to meet WP:NFCC?
*In Modern criticism, I think I would try to give years for each of the reviews to provide context (this is done for some already)
*I wonder if the artcle should mention somewhere that the lyrics for "Mr. Churchill says" include the line "this was their finest hour" since several of the reviews play off that.
Hope this helps, and let me know when this is at FAC - looks good to me. Ruhrfisch  ><>°° 16:15, 13 March 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: In its current state, the article no longer meets the FA criteria. The reappraisal section in particular has citation needed tags and does not have enough reviews laid out in prose. There are also some questionable sources (kindakinks.net), the charts section is not laid out to current standards, the personnel section is mostly unsourced, and the extra track listings do not belong per WP:ALTTRACKLISTING. – zmbro (talk) (cont) 19:03, 3 June 2024 (UTC)
