Sorry but this article is a long way away from being able to be passed, as the commercial performance, track listing and personnel sections all contain unreferenced information; this means it fails criteria 2. Plus the lead needs much exp. -- Kyle Peake ( talk) 08:25, 15 August 2019 (UTC)
Kyle Peake, RF23, I would like to suggest that, when articles have been waiting a very long time for a review, a quickfail should be avoided unless the article is clearly hopeless, which this one is not—the issues seem eminently fixable within the standard seven days. The lead was two paragraphs, pretty much the maximum number for an article with under 15K characters of prose (see MOS:LEADLENGTH), and leads have nothing to do with broadness at all (though it's perfectly valid to request additional sections of the article be covered in the lead, a normal request and usually an easy fix). In any event, leads must meet the criteria in MOS:LEAD, which a review should note and the nominator edit accordingly. Under the circumstances, I think the best thing is retain the seniority of the original nomination date while allowing a new reviewer to start a GA2 page when they select this article from the pool of over 500 nominations waiting for reviews.
