Although this song is quite notable, there are few readily available sources for the song on the internet. I would like the reviewer to consider this while reviewing the article; thank you! Carbrera (talk) 00:52, 15 April 2016 (UTC) [reply ]

Hello, I'm User:MarioSoulTruthFan and I'll be reviewing this article in a short time.

• Link → music critics

Done

• The single was subsequently considered Ivy's signature song, due to heavy promotion → this is not said in the article, add it and source.

Done

• later interview → When?

Done fixed per date of interview; good catch!

• ...the idea of incorporating new genres into their music; → full stop after music, then capital letter.

Done

• stated that → doesn't need "that".

Done

• "the first songs [we] recorded were jangly and simple and straight-ahead. We started gravitating toward the groovier, slightly more melancholy stuff. It works well with Dominique's voice" → use your own words in some of this quote.

Done re-worded

• "Along with the exploration came "stronger" songs" → sounds terrible.

Done re-worded

• Musically, "Edge of the Ocean" is an indie pop and trip hop song; → full stop and sources.

Done

• "The single was not released elsewhere until May 27, 2002, when it was released as a CD single in the United Kingdom" → in spite of being a unreliable source, the date only has 2001.

Not done. The source is now reliable but there is no, month or day of the release. Still only year.

• Flawless.

Done Hey thanks!

• The video begins with Durand casually walking around in California near the ocean; several shots of nearby boats, cliffs and landscape are interwoven as Durand mouths the song's lyrics. Chase and Schlesinger also appear in the video. → source.

Done YT video is the only source regarding the video out there (that I can find, and trust me, I've looked)

• The track was later joked about, with a reviewer noting that "chances are you've heard it and didn't even know it". → not sure if this is the best section for this piece of information.

Done moved

• See on References section, below.

Done

• Link mixing, mastering and such only once in this section, in other words, most of them are not linked and need to be once.

Done

• Use → Template:Single chart

Done

• See below

Done

• Lot's to do here:

1. andychase.com → Andy Chase

Done

1. Discogs is not reliable → replace it.

Done I have added additional reliable sources (Amazon) for verification

• Since the the information is the same in both sources, you can remove the Discogs websites. Otherwise, Ovelinking. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 11:55, 26 May 2016 (UTC) [reply ]

1. 15 → Despite being the official video, it's not official source (Ivy's channel), use MTV or other.

• I'm not sure what you want me to change regarding this

I was saying to find a reliable source for the video, but since you can't find it with your research and I couldn't as well. Let's leave it at that.

1. IMDb → unreliable source, replace it.

Done replaced

Some good and solid info, needs some work here and there. Otherwise is quite good, I'll put it on hold for a week. If you need more time, just let me know. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 19:08, 21 May 2016 (UTC) [reply ]

@MarioSoulTruthFan: I have finished making changes. Thanks as always! Carbrera (talk) 01:56, 26 May 2016 (UTC) [reply ]

@Carbrera: I will see the changes, once I have concluded checking them. I will let you know. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 11:42, 26 May 2016 (UTC) [reply ]

@Carbrera: I totally forgot to ping you, I have re-evaluated you fixes and it's almost a pass. 2 more fixes to do. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 13:31, 28 May 2016 (UTC) [reply ]

@MarioSoulTruthFan: I think it's all caught up now. Thanks! Carbrera (talk) 21:40, 28 May 2016 (UTC) [reply ]

@Carbrera:. No need to remove the sentence just the release date. Leave the year. Still have to remove the discogs references. MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 21:43, 28 May 2016 (UTC) [reply ]

@MarioSoulTruthFan: Done. Carbrera (talk) 21:45, 28 May 2016 (UTC) [reply ]
