Hello mate, noticed you have a lot of unanswered GACs. I'll be taking on this one and a few more after this one. I'm convinced that you somehow work for Kanye West haha. Oh by the way I have an unanswered GAC also, please consider checking on it. dxneo (talk) 14:50, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Prose

Lead + quick facts

• According to the digital liner notes and ref7, this song was released by Def Jam only, not Rock-A-Fella.

• I have now sourced this in the body --K. Peake 19:41, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

• The song features additional vocals from Justin Vernon and Assassin. ===> It features additional vocals from Justin Vernon and Assassin.

•  Not done using "the song" is more appropriate in a sentence directly after mentioning the song and album --K. Peake 19:41, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

• Co-producers and additional producers are not really that important enough to be included in the lead.
• West served the role of lead producer and Evian Christ co-produced it with Dom $olo, while Noah Goldstein, Arca, and Mike Dean contributed additional production. The rapper, Evian Christ, and Dean served as co-writers with the vocalists, Malik Yusef, Cyhi the Prynce, Sakiya Sandifer, and Elon Rutberg, while Dre & Vidal, Jill Scott, Carvin Haggins, and Kenny Lattimore received credits due to a sample of their composition. ===> "I'm in It" was written by Mike Dean, Evian Christ, Justin Vernon, Assassin, Malik Jones, Cydel Young, Sakiya Sandifer, Elon Rutberg, Andre Harris, Jill Scott, Vidal Davis, Carvin Haggins, Kenny Lattimore, Dom $olo, and it's producer West.

•  Not done the lead will be quite short if this was cut down, furthermore it is fine to keep when it is not a long article only an album track anyway. --K. Peake 19:41, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

I don't think that's a good enough reason to keep such information in the lead. There are way shorter GAs than this, take "Trust Issues" for an example. The lead is supposed to prepare the readers, not give out all that information. This Co and additional producers intel is not even fairly referenced in the body of the article. A Lattimore sample is expected in the lead, but not the people in the car back, you might as well just mention the engineers too. Keep it concise and precise. dxneo (talk) 20:23, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

I still disagree since I've done this in all of my other GAs to no issues and to add to this point, co and additional producers not being credited in the infoboxes anymore gives a further reason for this to be done. --K. Peake 08:45, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

• Replace "the song" with either "it" or "I'm in It" to keep "the song" to a minimum, without losing your way of course.

•  Done I feel it would be losing my way if there was consecutive instances of "it" in the lead. --K. Peake 19:41, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

• Assassin recorded different verses unaccompanied to instrumentals at Gee Jam Studios, which West used a verse from with no prior notice. ===> I don't think this is supposed to be in the lead, thoughts?

•  Done --K. Peake 19:41, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Composition and lyrics

• The song also includes "Oh" vocals, as crafted by Tammy Infusino and Ken Lewis. == how does ref7 support this statement?

• '"Oh" vocals created by Tammy Infusino and Ken Lewis' – the source, may not be immediately noticeable I understand since this cannot be searched but look at "I'm in It" under the image and you can see this. --K. Peake 19:41, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Release and reception

• "I'm In It" was included as the sixth track on West's sixth studio album, Yeezus, released on June 18, 2013, through his labels Def Jam and Roc-A-Fella. ===> "I'm in It", the sixth track on West's sixth studio, Yeezus, was released by Def Jam Recordings.

• I have found a source saying Yeezus was released by those two labels, which has now been added! --K. Peake 19:41, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Charts

• The table is not well formatted. Put "|+ Chart performance for "I'm in It"" before "! scope="col"| Chart (2013)"

•  Done --K. Peake 19:41, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Source

• Ref3 is not archived. GA cannot be vulnerable to linkrot.
• Ref4, 5, 6
• Ref31 (website/magazine) is not wiki linked. Also Ref33, 34, 35, 37, and 39.

•  Not done I followed WP:OVERLINK and this guidance can be interpreted differently, with the version I've followed here of linking each citation once. --K. Peake 19:41, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

Over link does not apply to references, chart table, and in other cases, lists. I can bring up any FA/FLC/GA. dxneo (talk) 20:25, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

---

This would go against the style of WP:OVERLINK I have used in all my GAs, even in the FAs Late Registration and Kids See Ghosts so I reason this does not need to be implemented. --K. Peake 08:45, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Verdict

Good one, just a few inaccuracies that can be fixed in minutes. I'll put this on hold for now while I wait for the nominator to address the issues. dxneo (talk) 15:39, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

@Dxneo: I have addressed all of the issues and responded with explanations where I did not implement suggestions, thanks a lot for picking this up at last who knows if I work for West haha! --K. Peake 19:41, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

I think we should we should start a WikiProject Kanye West, what do you say? dxneo (talk) 20:26, 8 December 2024 (UTC)

dxneo I have responded again now and I'd agree, although could you help out please since I'm not familiar with how to set up these? --K. Peake 08:45, 9 December 2024 (UTC)

Kyle, hit me up on my talk so that we can discuss it further. I'm gonna pass this now. dxneo (talk) 09:31, 9 December 2024 (UTC)
