message: Hi there! I totally forgot to continue looking at this article after assessing its images at Wikipedia:Peer review/Leah LaBelle/archive3. To compensate for that, I'll leave some thoughts here (better late than never):
*The lead's first two paragraphs use "she" a bit much. Try to replace at least one instance from each with her surname for more pronoun diversity.

replies: text: * The sample album was never released for the public. At the time, I thought it was such an odd strategy. It seemed like the record label focused on establishing a solid reputation/foundation for LaBelle within the industry, which you would think they would do prior to releasing singles with music videos. The singles are available for purchase and streaming, but not the rest of the album. You can find all the songs on YouTube (though they are not official releases) and for some reason, they are on her SoundCloud account (which again a very odd choice).

text: * That is a good point. Thank you for bringing it. I put in the note as I was uncertain if I needed to explain why LaBelle did not by Leah Vladowski (which she did in her early American Idol appearances), but that might be unnecessary as it is rather obvious. Do you think I should just remove the note. I was probably just over-thinking things. Aoba47 (talk) 01:36, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

text: * Thank you for pointing this out. I am really bad with this in particular. Revised. Aoba47 (talk) 01:19, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

text: * That is very true. I have revised it with your suggestions in mind. Aoba47 (talk) 01:23, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

text: * I actually removed the link as it goes to an article on a Pentecostal church in Prescott, Arizona while this instance is about a Catholic church in Los Angeles. I have revised that to hopefully clarify that. I have removed the "LaBelle was reportedly recording new music" bit as I could not find any further information about it and it reads more like complete speculation on the source's part as they do not go into any further depth about this.

text: * Revised. Thank you for pointing this out. Aoba47 (talk) 01:30, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

text: * I have removed TMZ and The Blast. At the time, they were the only outlets that I could find to support this information as all the other coverage on LaBelle's death said she was married to Butler. But, I believe the two obituaries are solid enough to support this information on their own. Aoba47 (talk) 01:30, 15 August 2021 (UTC)

text: * Thank you for your comments/help! I really do appreciate it. I will look through and address all your points later today. I hope you are doing well and have a great weekend so far. Aoba47 (talk) 22:27, 14 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: *  Thank you again for your help. I have addressed all of your points. I do have a quick question about the note regarding her name and whether or not it is necessary in the article. I have requested a GOCE copy-edit for the article so hopefully that will help to smooth out some parts of the prose. I am cautiously optimistic about my FAC chances with this article, but I am looking forward to stepping somewhat outside of my comfort zone. Aoba47 (talk) 01:44, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: *My pleasure, and "decided to use Leah LaBelle as her name" is definitely a better choice for that hidden note on how she switched from using her legal surname. I just made one little fix here and personally think this ready for FAC whenever you decide to go for that. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 02:12, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: * Thank you for the edit. One of these days, I will get the hang of MOS:CURLY lol. I will let you know when I put this article up for a FAC, which will be sometime in the near-ish future. Aoba47 (talk) 02:45, 15 August 2021 (UTC)
