Lead
[edit]- Delink China per MOS:OVERLINK
- "was chosen during Selecția Națională 2020 on 1 March." - state what the Selecția Națională 2020 was for clarity
- "final for the second consecutive time." - year
- "while Roxen had appearances on several native talk shows and radio stations." - shorter and concise Roxen appeared on several
Background
[edit]- "Its highest placing in the contest, to this point, has been third place," - in past tense please; had
- "As of December 2019, the broadcaster was still discussing the method" - the word "still" is redundant
- "been given that time preceding years." - in preceding years.
Artist selection
[edit]- "On 31 January 2020, TVR has confirmed their collaboration with native label" - the word "has" is unneeded since the event happened in the past
- "Furthermore, it has been announced that Liana Stanciu" - same issue as above
- "the project has costed TVR a reported €69,000." - had cost TVR
- "Having brought together several notable composers such as David Ciente," - the word "notable" is unnecessary
- "a songwriting camp was organized in January 2020," - organised
- "Global Records's manager Ștefan has announced that a male and two female artists" - you don't need to have the word "has" since the event happened in the past
- "and the competing songs released on 21 February." - competing songs were released
- "released on 21 February.[14][12]" - the references should be placed in numerical order
Selecția Națională 2020
[edit]- "Selecția Națională 2020 was the national final format organized by TVR" - organised
- "awarded a set of points from 5–0, which was based on each member's individual set of votes from 5–0." - both mentions of "5–0" are better off written as five to zero
- "the latter was to previal in case of a tie" - latter would decide the winning song
- "Selecția Națională was aired" - shown for variety
- "broadcast" seemed like a better choice for me here.
- That change is acceptable MWright96 (talk) 18:38, 1 April 2020 (UTC)
- "broadcast" seemed like a better choice for me here.
- "sized around 300 square metres." - the convert template should be used on the text in bold
At Eurovision
[edit]- Delink China per MOS:OVERLINK
- "selected countries, except the host country" - try to not repeat the same word close together in the same sentence
- "EBU soon after announced" - more gramatically correct; EBU announced soon after
- "that intended 2020 entries were not eligible for the following year." - that entries intended for 2020 would not be eligible for the following year.
