mean by "highest-ranking in what?" but the book says "DOY became the highest ranking
Spanish language album to chart Billboard's Top Latin Albums" so the information given I only re-word it into my own words, I think I might of confused people when I did that. "Behar's request for a major crossover was denied and was told that in order to sell a major record, Selena needed a bigger fan base." This was told in the "Selena: Queen of Tejano Music" special that is featured on the tenth anniversary of Selena the movie, I need to fix that right there because it says "Selena Remembered". This statement "During a lunch break in 1994, Selena began crying due to the pressures of the press about her album to Jose Behar." is citation 11. Ok before going on I would like to discuss these I mentioned above so we can work at it easily then keep going.
201:. Twelve links to dab pages and five dead external links; see the toolbox to the right. The prose is less than ideal: for example, "Critics received the album with mixed to positive reviews with many of them stating that Dreaming of You wasn't Selena's peak as an artist, while stating, Amor Prohibido is a more consistent release that it was an effective introduction, and showed why she was adored by Tejano fans alike." in the lead. The rest of the article doesn't seem to be much better. I recommend withdrawing this FAC, getting an independent copyeditor, and taking the article to peer review. (There may well also be problems in other areas, such as sourcing; I haven't checked.)
277:"When a reference tag coincides with punctuation, the reference tag is normally placed immediately after the punctuation, except for dashes, as recommended by the Chicago Manual of Style and other style guides. Some editors prefer the in-house style of journals such as Nature, which place references before punctuation. If an article has evolved using predominantly one style of ref tag placement, the whole article should conform to that style unless there is a consensus to change it."
353:"Critics received the album with mixed to positive reviews with many of them stating that Dreaming of You wasn't Selena's peak as an artist, while stating, Amor Prohibido is a more consistent release that it was an effective introduction, and showed why she was adored by Tejano fans alike." - run on, not explained elsewhere in the article as her peak, needs a couple of citations, little bit
257:: Well I was asking around and I nominated this article for a "Copyedit" project on Knowledge but no one wanted to help so I felt that, in my eyes, the article is ready but I guess not. If you have anyone who are wiling to check it over that will be great but like I said I don't really like asking because every time I ask no one wants to help. And I know they don't have to.

The source is citation 7 ("Top ten best-selling debuts), I didn't want to like add it everywhere so I always add it at the end. What do you mean by
Wikilink is much different? For "DOY became the highest ranking Spanish album to chart Billboard Top Latin Album" is citation 8 and I don't know what you

has a section that talks about the artwork and it's a featured article. I wanted to keep the two sections "Artwork" and "Styles of use" so that the image for "Captive Heart" can still be here on
Knowledge and plus its on that section so others can see what I mean when they read that section. But if

The wikilink doesn't explain the content Top ten best-selling debuts, and add the citations, you can multiple add the citations at the same time. With the highest ranking
Spanish album, it needs to be explain further, like highest-ranking in most records sold, that sort of thing.

Dreaming of You became the Amazon.com's top 4 "best seller" in Latin music while the album became #22 as the "best seller" for Mexico's World music. The album is also #64 for North

That's what I have to say, I want to see the article promoted, being my mom's favorite artist (that's why I got involved in Selena in the first place) but there are way too many concerns that I can't fix. Thanks
481:
Oh ok so do you think I should remove that then (the wikilink)? Hmm I guess its different here because on GA if its the same ref then its encourage to add it at the end, but ok I'll go ahead and do that.
388:
Artwork, use of styles is original research even though it's sourced, (with a primary source which FAC doesn't prefer) remove the section, no other album FA that I see has a description of "artwork".
