Hi

A blog has been created by Digital Spy. Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:23, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

Is this reliable? Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:44, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Beyoncé is performing at royal wedding. "Both William and Kate are massive fans of Beyoncé...". Nice. Very nice. What do you think she will sing? Source. Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:27, 24 April 2011 (UTC)

Can you please add the VH1 link as a review. I really do not know how to make it a review. Please. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:28, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

Already done. Have a look at this. Jivesh • Talk2Me 13:19, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

Can you allow me more time for the GA? Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:17, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. Jivesh • Talk2Me 15:29, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

DYK for The Experiment (album)

On 28 April 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article The Experiment (album), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that on his debut album, The Experiment, Dane Rumble found it difficult to write his former band's usual hip hop music, so he turned to pop rock? You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Reply: Grammy

Oh, I should have passed it yesterday :( I'm sorry. Really? I'll work on it, but it needs to be converted to prose. That will take a few days, lol :D Maybe we can work together? What do you say? Good night :) Novice7 (talk) 11:24, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

Oh, I see. I'll ping you when I start work ;) Novice7 (talk) 05:28, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Re: UK chart

Hi Ada, I'm afraid I don't have those chart subscriptions. Sorry. If you as Legolas... he might be able to find positions from his billboard.biz subscription. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 ^[talk] 15:34, 28 April 2011 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thank you for showing me that! I'm not trying to cause trouble or vandalize. Just contributing. Cowik (talk) 05:17, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

WikiCup 2011 April newsletter

Round 2 of the 2011 WikiCup is over, and the new round will begin on 1 May. Note that any points scored in the interim (that is, for content promoted or reviews completed on 29-30 April) can be claimed in the next round, but please do not start updating your submissions' pages until the next round has begun. Fewer than a quarter of our original contestants remain; 32 enter round 3, and, in two months' time, only 16 will progress to our penultimate round. Casliber (submissions), who led Pool F, was our round champion, with 411 points, while 7 contestants scored between 200 and 300 points. At the other end of the scale, a score of 41 was high enough to reach round 3; more than five times the score required to reach round 2, and competition will no doubt become tighter now we're approaching the later rounds. Those progressing to round 3 were spread fairly evenly across the pools; 4 progressed from each of pools A, B, E and H, while 3 progressed from both pools C and F. Pools D and G were the most successful; each had 5 contestants advancing.

This round saw our first good topic points this year; congratulations to Hurricanehink (submissions) and Nergaal (submissions) who also led pool H and pool B respectively. However, there remain content types for which no points have yet been scored; featured sounds, featured portals and featured topics. In addition to prizes for leaderboard positions, the WikiCup awards other prizes; for instance, last year, a prize was awarded to Candlewicke (submissions) (who has been eliminated) for his work on In The News. For this reason, working on more unusual content could be even more rewarding than usual!

Sorry this newsletter is going out a little earlier than expected- there is a busy weekend coming up! A running total of claims can be seen here. If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start receiving or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send. J Milburn and The ed17 19:05, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

DYK for What's Your Name (Usher song)

On 3 May 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article What's Your Name (Usher song), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that "What's Your Name", a 2008 electro single by Usher and will.i.am, was noted by some critics as one of the best tracks on Here I Stand, while others described it as "downright awful"?

Heartbreaker GA Review

Hey Andrew, yeah I usually don't (I should) copy-edit the articles before nominating them. Don't worry, I'll give it a thorough re-write and copy-edit tomorrow :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 07:49, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

UPDATE: All fixed Andre' ;)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 08:37, 2 May 2011 (UTC)

Come back and take a look :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 13:09, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

I left you a few comments on the page and made some more fixes. Come back :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 11:52, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Re: Rufus Wainwright (album) GA review

Thanks so much taking the time to review the article, Adabow. User Sylvia Anna posted three comments on the review page along with a paragraph on the talk page so be sure to take a look at those. Your feedback would be appreciated. Thanks again! --Another Believer _(Talk) 17:41, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Dark Passion Play

Can you review this please? Thanks.Meadows of Heaven (talk) 19:42, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Reassessment?

Hello Adabow! I was wondering, if you are not too busy, if you would be willing to reassess "Super Bass" for me? I've reconstructed the entire article since it was deemed Start-Class, and I would like to get the opinion of a Wiki-Elder on how it's going so far. Please and thank you :] Theuhohreo (talk) 17:45, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so much! And yea, i just realized that when my finger actually got tired scrolling down to your current message :p Hahahaaa! Although, i think whatever work i just put into the article was just demolished by someone going GA-crazy on it! Hahahahaha! Theuhohreo (talk) 05:35, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Grammys

Hey Adabow! Thanks for commenting on my FL. Just one question I am confused as to what you meant with making the headers for the columns and rows invisible? Do you mind clarifying? Thanks! Btw your other issues have been addressed.--Blackjacks101 (talk) 20:07, 29 April 2011 (UTC)

Hey just to let you know I responded to your concerns at the FL for Best Urban/Alternative Performance, and I just had one question. Thanks!--Blackjacks101 (talk) 13:20, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

"Run the World"

I'm so sad to see the single flop like this. It has already exited the top 100 of iTunes (and will probably exit the Billboard Hot 100). Gaga's Judas moved up to number 10! My fave "Just a Kiss" is gonna debut big!! Novice7 (talk) 04:26, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

I hope so too. I heard another song's snippet and it sounds almost like "RTW"!! I really wish she returns to R&B. As for Lady A, lol, I know you don't like country music :D I didn't like country music before too. Thanks to some great country singers I love country music :D Novice7 (talk) 04:36, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Run The World

Hi Andrew. Do you still have hope that a video will save the song. It is currently at number 80 on iTunes. Jivesh • Talk2Me 13:12, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Have patience. Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:06, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

I told you i was going to fix it. Actually, RTW debuted at number 27 and not at number 18 then fell ti number 27. And you are using the same reference to source the peak positions for Australia, Denmark, Spain, New Zealand, etc when the Dutch Top 40 does not cover all those charts. I told you to give me some time. I had an emergency. I know the Dutch Top 40 is the preferred one. Jivesh • Talk2Me 13:39, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Fixed now. Thanks for passing TWYLM. Jivesh • Talk2Me 13:59, 7 May 2011 (UTC)

Can you please tell me the archive url of this? Please. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:26, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

I hope you are not angry with me? Sorry if i sounded a bit aggressive last time. Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:26, 8 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. Have you watched the choreography of RTW? Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:25, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Not at all. Source.

And here is the next single. Jivesh • Talk2Me 14:27, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

"Here We Go Again"

Thanks Ada! Can you add an analysis of this to the article? Novice7 (talk) 05:46, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so much for helping out Adabow. Nancy Sinatra recorded a version of the song and it charted. Shall we create a section for it? Novice7 (talk) 07:16, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

I searched for Sinatra version and could not find much information. Maybe as a subsection of Ray Charles version? Lol, I thought you saw the message on WT:SONGS and then started working on the article. I was going to ask you for help, thanks for your help Ada :) Novice7 (talk) 09:39, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

You mentioned something about finding nominations. The article could use a summary of all the Grammy categories that this song was nominated in. Also, if you know how to find any reviews of the duet, that would help the article.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:13, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Also, how do we know if the current text includes all the countries that the song charted in?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:14, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

I am a bit lost on those foreign charts. E.G., I tried to look up the Japan charts and it was all in the Japanese alphabet.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 07:30, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Site function?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 07:39, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

I thought that WP:GOODCHARTS said billboard won't have 2004 singles. Are you looking at the right chart for Japan.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:21, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Can you finish adding in the Billboard issn and such now that the article has most of its details filled in.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 12:27, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the help. Can you find cover art for the Nancy Sinatra version??--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 08:32, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Re: Unbroken

Ok so what does a co-nom do? lol. Sorry I'm just not use to this GAN stuff. Ozurbanmusic (talk) 23:13, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Oh ok then. Have you heard Stan's new single? I love it! Do you think we should start a sandbox for it? Ozurbanmusic (talk) 06:53, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Here is the sandbox for "Loud". Could you please expand the music video section (: Ozurbanmusic (talk) 07:16, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Link to video. I would do it myself but my internet's slow at the moment lol. Thanks, Ozurbanmusic (talk) 04:00, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Lol

Please tell me you laughed when reading this. I legit buckled for a good minute :) Some people are just...wow lol.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 05:20, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Haha "Beyonce is a well known customer at most McDonalds" lol, that part got me :) Good luck on "Single ladies" BTW, I'll make sure to drop by tomorrow and have a looksy.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 05:25, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

No need to tell you i have voted for Beyonce. Wow, she is getting the millennium award. Thanks for the co-nomination. Really thanks? Have you watched the latest 40 second long teaser? And it is her next single confirmed by THE SUN. I had the link. But i cannot find it now. Jivesh • Talk2Me 14:05, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the B'Day wish Andrew. Jivesh • Talk2Me 15:09, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Hmm, Corey Jackson Carter?? Another instance of "Tre' Shon Jenkins" like vandalism? Novice7 (talk) 05:57, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

I already notified him :P Novice7 (talk) 07:22, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Hey Ada, if you're free, can you copyedit Just a Kiss? I'm out to lunch now, and I wrote the article hastily. I have written a lot of poor sentences, I'm sure. Thanks in advance :) Novice7 (talk) 07:55, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Thank YOU!!! Novice7 (talk) 10:28, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
