Reviews

[edit]

The Daily Express review (1 star out of 5) is being repeately removed - usually by IPs and without explanation. It's not a thorough review, but it's in a national newspaper and it illustrates very well how opinion is so divided about Diana Vickers. For this reason, and in the interest of balance and neutrality, I believe it should remain. I42 (talk) 15:46, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Agree it should remain. Mo ainm~Talk 15:51, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I think it should remain as well. However, when the review limit is reached and there are other credible and more well-written reviews that weren't included, I think it should be replaced. Perhaps an equally negative but less spiteful review would be the best case, just to maintain the balance. Spacealigned (talk) 16:22, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, what Spacealigned said. AnemoneProjectors 19:57, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
So now we have reached 10 reviews, let's see what comes out later in the day or tomorrow and if something more professional pops up it can replace Daily Express. If publications like The Times, The Daily Telegraph or NME post reviews, I think that Daily Mirror, Sunday Mercury and Evening Standard could be replaced too.

OK, here's what I suggest; first of all, the Sunday Mercury review. It is kind of rough. I think that this review by Virgin Media is much better and should replace it. They are both positive. Now the mixed/negative reviews. BBC, Independent and Observer should be kept, all of them are very credible when it comes to reviews. On the other hand, mere tabloid Daily Mirror could be replaced by this quite big and thorough review by Yahoo! Music. And finally the Daily Express review could be replaced by the NME review, which is not fair since Daily Express is negative and NME is mixed, but I do think NME is more credible and also that would quiet down some of the trolls lurking around this page (aka Littlemark2009 who should have been banned ages ago). That should be the end, no more changes in the reception section after this, we all move on. Spacealigned (talk) 18:57, 16 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hectic real-life prevented me from commenting sooner, but for me those suggestions are good. The changes you have made to the article itself leave in the Express review - the one which is the most negative and the most contentious. On the one hand, conventional wisdom is that the outliers are probably abberations and should be omitted. OTOH, if the idea is illustrate the extremes of opinion that DV provokes then perhaps they are worth keeping in this case. My view is that if the Express review is removed then the other extreme (Digital Spy) should be as well, but I suggest keeping both. I42 (talk) 18:04, 18 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Someone has obviously got something against Diana because when you look at the reviews it says don't edit as they're a good mix of good and bad. No they're not, not they are no at all! They are all fairly negative. at least 5 out of 10 of the reviews should be positive and giving at least 4/5 out of 5. Nearly all of them are like 2 etc. Please don't let your own opinions get in the way of proper judgement, thanks.

I changed the reviews to be more balanced and someone has changed them back, they are all negative and less than 3 star apart from one which is 4. I know for a fact Diana got some very positive reviews with a lot of 5 stars. Can someone please edit them in because mine are getting removed.

The Boy Who Murdered Love

[edit]

As the release for the boy who murdered love is one month away i think it should get its own page pretty soon.There lots of information which is already known which could be put on it e.g. music video's, reviews, writing, performences. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.7.242.82 (talk) 10:16, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
