A fact from Forever Now (The Psychedelic Furs album) appeared on Wikipedia's
Main Page in the Did you know column on 19 March 2016 (

A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
Really well-done. Hits all the important highlights without devolving into trivia central or general fancruft. I'll be honest, this is probably the first WP article about an album I've ever read, and I think it's terrific.
Ref #48 has an odd redirect...are you sure it is ending up where it needs to be to source that statement? Same with Ref #21.
Both of these pointed to 'Charts' tabs on AllMusic which no longer exist. In fact one of the entries was wrong – perhaps that's why the tabs have been taken down! Accordingly I've removed Ref #48, and added a new source for Ref #21.SteveStrummer (

I know that there are probably improvements that could be made but I'm not seeing them at this time - maybe Wikilinking the term "Gold (record)" to [[
Music recording #sales certification for anyone unfamiliar with the term... And I'll be frank with anyone who reads this afterwards, I started on this Review without much enthusiasm, just trying to so some reviews and I picked this one out. I don't know all that much about Rundgren's work as a producer or about The Psychedelic Furs, didn't know that Flo&Eddie/The Turtles sang on this album, and so on. And now I do and now I am a little fascinated with the individuals and this music. Thank you to all the notable contributors to this article, it was a pleasure.
