[edit] Good Article nomination is on hold

The Good article nomination for The Reputation is on hold for the following reason:

This article needs a good proof read. In places it is hard to read and very awkward. Once it has been edited a bit, I'll approve it. --The Talking Sock talk contribs 19:58, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Can you expand on this a little? What parts are hard to read? I'll be glad to fix whatever, I'm just not sure what you're looking at example-wise. Thanks. --badlydrawnjeff talk 22:00, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Here goes (Some of these might sound nitpicky and my apologies for that ):

"In an attempt to bridge the gap between two bands" - this does not make sense. Also, that sentence is a runon. | In the second Paragraph of History, Elmore is the subject of the first sentence but the second one refers to "they" when the band has only been used as an indirect object. | "The Reputation, the band's self-titled debut album, was released in 2002 after spending much of the fall and winter of 2001 recording." who was spending?

This isn't as bad as I remember it being when I first read it and most of these problems aren't *that* bad. --The Talking Sock talk contribs 20:22, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

No, no, please nitpick. I'm trying to bring this up as much as possible. Thanks for the pointers, I'll go over this with a more critical eye tonight/tomorrow and leave a message here again. --badlydrawnjeff talk 22:50, 18 August 2006 (UTC)

I found a few others. Let me know what you think of it. --badlydrawnjeff talk 03:49, August 2006 (UTC)
