"Alexandra Stan has been involved in an accident. She is recovering. More info to come.
Alexandra Stan Management" — Preceding unsigned comment added by Treidoiunu (talk • contribs) 07:27, 19 June 2013 (UTC)
The last paragraph in the summary & the "Marcel Prodan case" section are practically identical. Either that section should be removed or the summary paragraph should be edited to something like "After a 2013 incident her pending album was delayed and she decided to take a break (see "Marcel Prodan case").
I am not sure which way would be better but the duplicate info should be pruned.JamesG5 (talk) 22:40, 7 January 2014 (UTC)
There is a missing image and this sentence does not seem to make sense: "Stan was also changed with the Ukraine-origin, Romanian singer Kaiia." —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.234.17.32 (talk) 16:49, 3 February 2015 (UTC)
"she showed special interest in music and she studied " - this sentence doesn't flow well. Suggest 'she showed special interest and went on to study'
Done
"In 2003, 15-year-old Stan" - think this could be worded better. How about 'In 2003, Stan, who was 15-years-old, was'. Up to you though. Also can you give any indication of what the TV show she appeared on was? Was it a talent contest?
Not done Done the first part, but not your second suggestion, as the source does not give any further information about the show.
"including the Mamaia Music Festival" - when did this happen?
Done
"but failed to achieve much success despite heavy radio airplay" - did you mean to say she failed to achieve much success OUTSIDE Romania? Otherwise the sentence seems to contradict itself.
Done Check out!
2010–2013
'"Get Back" gained major recognition' - this seems a bit biased. I wouldn't call the top ten in two countries and only the top 20 in a few others 'major' success, I'd call that moderate at best. Suggest less promotional wording, or better yet, just state where the song charted and let the reader decide how successful that is.
Done
"selling more than 68,000 copies there" - can you state when it had sold this amount by?
Done
"which charted in Bulgaria, Japan and Italy" - this isn't particularly helpful. At what position did it chart? You can be broad, saying in the top 50 for example, but I think you need to give at least some indication.
Done
"sold about 6,000 copies there" - again, an indication of the time it took to sell that amount would be nice.
Done
"Nu bate! Mai bine cântă!" - can we get a translation of that? Also what was the media response to the campaign (if any) considering the previous altercation?
Not done There were not responses to it.
2014
All good, though is the term hiatus in the reference? Its a pretty short break and I'm surprised the term is used at all.
2015
"Stan was involved with ecological and humanitarian causes" - that's a bit broad, can you be more specific?
Not done Source does not give any further information
"she planted a tree named after her" - did she actually have a new species of tree names after her? If so you should definitely mention its name.
Not done She just planted a normal tree which she named "Alexandra Stan"
"she won a trophy at the Celebrity Awards" - what are the celebrity awards? Where are they held and what makes them notable?
Done
"for $40" - USD? Wikilink to the currency.
Done
"in Cairo, Egypt" - do you think its necessary to clarify that Cairo is in Egypt? I think you can drop Egypt but keep it if you like.
Done
"with Antonia, Inna and Lori" - Antonia and Inna have wikilinks, which is great, but Lori does not. Accordingly can you tell us anything about her? Even just describe her as a pop star, assuming that's what she is.
Done
""Dumnezeu nu face politica" - can we get a translation?
Done
"Both singers reportedly thanked Goulding in Twitter comments" - using the term 'reportedly' makes it sound like it may not have actually occurred.
Done
Artistry
"I consider saxophone a very hot and sexy instrument which is also very used in my region." - this is given in quote marks, yet the source is in German. As per my last review, I don't think it's appropriate to put your translation inside quote marks, though I'm not sure if wiki has an official policy on that. I'd consider going through the entire article and removing such quotes. There are several.
Done
Public image and personal life
"the most successful Romanian products" - product strikes me as a very interesting choice of word here. Are you certain that's an accurate translation? As per the above comments, I don't think it should be in quote marks.
Done
"wrote that this could have been a reason for the clip to be banned in Romania" - this is awkward wording. How about "said this could have even led to the video being banned in Romania". I assume based on the current wording that it wasn't actually banned. Perhaps you should clarify this further to the reader.
Great job. Happy for this to pass now. Freikorp (talk) 00:21, 28 February 2017 (UTC)
As requested by Cartoon network freak, I will be copy-editing this article on behalf of the Guild of Copy Editors. I expect the edit to take at least a few days. I will post here if I find things I am unable to resolve. –gwendy (talk) 15:23, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
"From a very young age, she showed special interest and went on to study at the Traian Secondary School and the Faculty of Management Andrei Șaguna."
Showed a special interest in what? Singing? Music? Is this significant to the choice of schools? Are they related to the performing arts? "the Faculty of Management Andrei Șaguna" seems really awkward, should it actually say "in the Faculty of Management program at Andrei Șaguna University"? –gwendy (talk) 16:01, 12 March 2017 (UTC)
"within two hours became the most sought-after ringtone on Recochoku"
Is Recochoku a service for downloading ringtones?
