This is the featured article candidate. I support it in some degree, do you? 202.40.210.164 01:43, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)

Object. 1) An article about music needs one or more sound samples to get featured. 2) It could use some pictures too - I can think of a famous bossa nova artist performing, or the cover of a wellknown bossa nova album. 3) Contents need a copyedit, text is not very fluent at times. 4) Most sections could use a little more content. 5) Are there dances associated with the bossa nova? If so, this needs to be discussed. 6) References are needed, preferably including some paper references. 7) The list of Bossa Nova musicians is not very useful this way. It would be better to discuss a few of them in the text, and possibly link to a List of bossa nova musicians or so. 8) It is clear from the article that bossa nova music is popular in Brazil, but this is not discussed in detail. Also, what about the rest of the world? This is only touched upon briefly. Jeronimo 07:29, 18 Jan 2005 (UTC)
