• Can we add other details to the lead? Perhaps the release date, the label, and that she performed it at the Eras Tour
• "The Alchemy" is 15th on the track list → I can't really see this in the Music Week source
• "On May 12, 2024, Swift performed an acoustic guitar version of "The Alchemy" at the fourth Paris show of her Eras Tour" → I suggest adding another source to support "the acoustic guitar version" claim. It was also performed as a mashup with "Treacherous", if you'd like to add that (this is also not mentioned in the People source, though)
• I suggest updating the performances and adding the latest performance which was in London as a mashup with "King of My Heart"
• I also suggest adding the release of the limited-time digital version of the mashup with "Treacherous"
• "signaled a "good kind" of madness, of falling in love" → I don't really get the "of falling in love" thing? Any way to paraphrase this part?
• "Hodgkinson gave the song a five-star rating: "It's excellent—epic but intimate, like the final scene in a blockbuster" → Can we also paraphrase this to avoid the direct quoting? Hodgkinson also dubbed it a "happy ending" and compared it to works by Stevie Nicks, maybe you'd like to add this?
• Any source for the personnel section?
• Ref 5; missing the authors
• Ref 19; subscription access
• Ref 20; linking the publication
• Ref 27; I recommend directly using this source instead, since WP:RSPSS suggests not confusing the US ABC News with other publications

Everything else looks good! Sorry for suggesting adding several things, but it seems that the article hasn't been updated for a while and missing a couple of things. @Ippantekina: I will put this On hold for now, glad to pass once everything is addressed. Medxvo (talk) 18:22, 6 November 2024 (UTC)

Hey Medxvo all done! Thanks for the review :) Ippantekina (talk) 14:31, 7 November 2024 (UTC)

Hello @Ippantekina: I think you forgot to add an additional source to the Paris performance (which was my third point), but never mind, I just added it myself because it's not a big deal. Thanks for your work and for expanding the article! It definitely looks much better now and I'm happy to say that I'll will  Pass the article now. Congratulations!
