 == Unapologetic reviews == 

 Not a preference or POV issue (I personally like this album), just that the template's existence in general has been questioned by other reputed editors of album articles at Template talk:Album ratings, along with the ""favorable""/""unfavorable"" entries, so a comprimise would be keeping the ratings template with actual/technical ratings/scores. Also, Billboard is a trade magazine for the music industry, and they usually rate albums higher than other professional critics (Metacritic's profile of them). As for the entry in the ratings template, I usually use the ratio/percentage of ""favorable""/""unfavorable""/""mixed"" reviews from either Metacritic or AnyDecentMusic? and use that to model the template. In short, undue weight to a positive review and that it's not a score to begin with is why I removed it. As of now, there are five positive scores in the template, while Metacritic shows 6 out of 15 being positive, or 40% and 4 out of 10, so the ratings template right now is pretty generous believe it or not. Sorry if this was a bit long.   "
