Hello, I am RTSthestardust, who will be your reviewer for your nomination of American rapper Jaydes. - RTSthestardust (talk) 20:07, 8 February 2026 (UTC)
- @EternalBaile, there are multiple issues listed on my "Notes" and "Sourcing" sections you will need to fix. I will give you two weeks as there is a bunch of work. - RTSthestardust (talk) 20:43, 8 February 2026 (UTC)
- I somewhat sourced Romanticism, let me know if there's anything wrong with it. And I fixed the parts you suggested needed improvement. Veyhola (talk) 22:50, 13 February 2026 (UTC)
- Also removed the parts that weren't sourced in the career section. Veyhola (talk) 22:53, 13 February 2026 (UTC)
- If you find any more problems, let me know. Veyhola (talk) 22:56, 13 February 2026 (UTC)
- Sorry this took long; had a break from Wikipedia good articles. Ok. Everything is ready except that the sentence that criticized Romanticism is still unsourced. - RTSthestardust (talk) 05:09, 25 February 2026 (UTC)
- Hello? - RTSthestardust (talk) 07:33, 3 March 2026 (UTC)
- Unfortunately, as I have not received a response, and saw a clear indication of your activity anywhere else on Wikipedia without leaving a note to come back on this project, I'm going to fail this article. You can nominate once you have fulfilled everything in the article that reaches GA standards. RTSthestardust (talk) 06:26, 6 March 2026 (UTC)

Notes
[edit]- Replace each word of "Dumont" with "Jaydes" except the first lead sentence.
- Revise this sentence: "...switched to online learning in favor of making music, and also due to controversies at school"
- --> "...switched to online learning to focus on his music career and due to controversies from school."
- Revise this sentence: "His singles "Highschool," "Vivienne," "Trust Issues," "South," and "Clueless," would later gain traction online. The releases under the name "evvls" is best known for his soft vocals, and the support of the popularization of the PluggnB genre in 2021."
- --> "His singles "Highschool," "Vivienne," "Trust Issues," "South," and "Clueless," would later gain traction online,[5][6] best known for Jaydes' soft vocals and helping popularize the PluggnB genre in 2021.[1]"
- Revise this sentence: "Jaydes would release his debut extended play (EP) !? (2021) which rise to prominence following the track "Scam Likely" going viral.[7]"
- --> "Jaydes would release his debut EP !? (2021), which rose to prominence when its track "Scam Likely" went viral.[7]"
- Revise this sentence: "Although, due to the EP's short runtime, listeners criticized the project over this, similar to his previous EP, !?."
- --> "..., though it was criticized for its short runtime, similar to his previous EP, !?."
- Revise this sentence: "...which gained significant traction, and was considered a turning point in his career.[9]"
- ---> "which received significant attention and was considered a turning point in his career.[9]"
- Revise this sentence: "When working on the EP, he had explained that "I was just tryna' make music based on how I feel". The 9-track EP features fellow artists within the underground, Riovaz and Rich Amiri."
- ---> "While working on the EP, he explained that he was making music based on how he felt. The 9-track EP features music artists Riovaz and Rich Amiri."
- Remove the comma after "Rose"
- Revise this sentence: "A critic from Pitchfork recalled "the project pulls together disparate strands, from plugg to shoegaze and emo balladry", "It's messy, but it works more often than not."[12]"
- Italicize Ghetto Cupid in The Summit Pinnacle's quote and remove its own quotation marks.
- Replace "the" with "his" on this sentence: "On August of the same year, the..."
- Italicize Girlypunk and removed its own quotation marks. Also capitalize it as it works on Wikipedia policy.
- Add the comma aft
- Revise this sentence: "...and later uploading to streaming platforms on May 8"
- --> "...and was later uploaded to streaming platforms on May 8"
- Replace "this" with "the" on this sentence: "...which he claimed in an interview that he recorded this material live in-studio."
- Fabulous Tour needs a year
- Music video section needs a sub-heading that says "Music videos"
- Move the "Lyrical concerns" section to legal issues, with the section headline removed
- "Junkie" also needs quotation marks, as songs usually have. Capitalize it also.
Sourcing
[edit]- Nothing about the EP Romanticism (2022) is sourced.
- The final sentence on the 2022 section (based on Heartpacing) is unsourced.
- Nothing about the EP Girlypunk (2023) is sourced.
- Nothing about the EP Bipolar (2024) is sourced.
- Much of Jaydes' discography section is unsourced. If there's a song or even a project that has no reliable sources, then remove it entirely.
GA Criteria Table
[edit]| Rate | Attribute | Review Comment |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Well-written: | ||
| 1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct. | Fine, but it is not ready. | |
| 1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation. | Multiple issues | |
| 2. Verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check: | ||
| 2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline. | Some sentences have no sourcing claim | |
| 2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose). | No issues here. | |
| 2c. it contains no original research. | There is some original research unless sources are provided | |
| 2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism. | Highest copyvio is 18%, which is good. | |
| 3. Broad in its coverage: | ||
| 3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic. | The artist's personal life, career, musical style, legal issues, and discography contain supplemental information, though sources need to be complete. | |
| 3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style). | Usually consistent, with no distracting issues spotted | |
| 4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each. | "Lyrical concerns" is a bit less neutral. I suggest you move it to the "Legal issues" section | |
| 5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute. | Author holds 45.7% of the article's authorship. Normally stable as of now. | |
| 6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio: | ||
| 6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content. | Three free use files all have proper sources and rationales | |
| 6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions. | All have good descriptions | |
| 7. Overall assessment. | ||

I will review this before, or on, 29 June. :) ❧ LunaEatsTuna (talk), proudly editing since 2018 (and just editing since 2017) – posted at 23:39, 26 June 2026 (UTC)
- Prose
- His signing with 10K Projects should also be added somewhere in the body of the article (not just the lead, as the lead is a summary of what appears in the body of an article).
- I think “and started playing and writing music” is redundant given what is said immediately afterwards, mayB you could instead say “He grew up with a passion for music, and took piano lessons in elementary school and in his early teenage years.”
- You should add the year "Scam Likely" went viral, which I believe going by its article should be 2022? (And make sure this is cited of course!).
- You have “EP” above but later “extended play (EP)”, so switch those around (so that the word followed by its abbreviation comes first), and also shorten any subsequent mentions throughout the article to just EP.
- Could any more details or context be elaborated upon at “Jaydes explained that he was making music based on how he felt”?
- ”A critic from Pitchfork” – I think you could add his name here. Relatedly:
- Could “claiming it to be messy but working that way” be made a bit clearer?
- ”The review had also commented” – I think can be just “The review also commented”.
- ”production classical of [the style]” – unless this is a direct quotation (it is not marked as such), you can remove the square brackets.
- Spotchecks
Passes on this front. For the spotcheck, I randomly select and verify some sources to make sure they are correct/accurate; I randomly chose and was able to verify refs 1, 6, 11, 14 and 19.
- Sorry about the wait! I have (finally) left my comments above; feel free to respond to them whenever you have free time. I have placed this review on hold for now to allow you to make any changes. ❧ LunaEatsTuna (talk), proudly editing since 2018 (and just editing since 2017) – posted at 22:07, 2 July 2026 (UTC)
- @LunaEatsTuna: Thank you for the review!
- I couldn't actually find any sources covering his signing to 10K, so I went ahead and removed it from the lead altogether. If I find any sources covering it later I'll add it back to the lead and put it in the body as well.
- Done.
- It looks like "Scam Likely" went viral soon after its release. With that in mind, should I still revise the sentence, or is it fine as is?
- Done.
- I agree this should be elaborated on, but I'm not sure exactly how. Do you have any suggestions?
- Done.
- See #5.
- Done.
- Done.
- NP (talk) 23:53, 3 July 2026 (UTC)
- @NP2026: Nice work on the changes! The "Scam Likely" sentence is probably fine as is. As for 5, does it say how he felt? For 7, perhaps it could say something like "claiming the combination to be messy but saying that it still works" or similar? ❧ LunaEatsTuna (talk), proudly editing since 2018 (and just editing since 2017) – posted at 18:08, 7 July 2026 (UTC)
- @LunaEatsTuna: For 5, the direct quote in the article says:
“I was just tryna’ make music based on how I feel,” he says of the EP, while the glow of FL Studio open on his desktop screen illuminates his massive mushroom of curly hair. “I really grew up making it.”
He didn't really elaborate beyond that, so I think the current wording is fine. - For 7, I revised the sentence like this:
Alphonse Pierre of Pitchfork stated that the album blends plugg with shoegaze and "emo balladry", calling the combination "messy" but adding that it "works more often than not".
Does that work? NP (talk) 00:15, 8 July 2026 (UTC)- Yeah, that is fantastic! ❧ LunaEatsTuna (talk), proudly editing since 2018 (and just editing since 2017) – posted at 00:12, 14 July 2026 (UTC)
- Great! Is anything else needed for this article to pass? NP (talk) 00:17, 14 July 2026 (UTC)
- I have given it a final look through and I am definitely satisfied with it! It is fairly short but covers everything that is available from RS, not to mention his career has thus far been pretty short compared to other super prolific and older artists. Nice work on the article; I am ready now to pass this for GA status, so congratulations! ❧ LunaEatsTuna (talk), proudly editing since 2018 (and just editing since 2017) – posted at 00:24, 14 July 2026 (UTC)
