Pee Cee
can we add "Pee Cee" in her lead as she is widely regarded by this name. Now, she is evn more popular by this name as all the media and people call her that. What's your thought on this?—Prashant 11:14, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
- I think the lead should consist of any official/legal names only. I might be wrong but I thought I read that in WP:BIO policy. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 11:37, 10 March 2015 (UTC)
Like ShahRukh Khan? It uses several popular names.—Prashant 12:08, 10 March 2015 (UTC)

"incorrect formatting"
What was the issue with this edit?—Kww(talk) 05:38, 18 March 2015 (UTC)
- @Kww:, there was errors in the formatting I saw, I had reverted it and am working on resolving the errors. The sales were not being reflected and the chart peaks also in some of them. Give me sometime. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 05:41, 18 March 2015 (UTC)

Discography help?
Hi there. I'm working on some discography articles, but have run into a brick wall and could use some guidance. You were recommended to me as someone who could possibly help. I've written out a bunch of stuff on an article talkpage, Talk:Shinhwa discography#Issues still to resolve and would love any feedback you could provide. I plan to continue working on other discographies in the future, and this would be immensely helpful. Thank you so much for any help! Shinyang-i (talk) 14:20, 20 March 2015 (UTC)

Like a Prayer
Hello IndianBio. I noticed that you're very active on the Madonna articles, I'm relatively new here; My name's Christian and, like you, am a Madonna Fan. I recently decided to begin working on my favorite Madonna album, which is "Like a Prayer", you can find my work here, I was wondering if you'd be interested in helping me expand it.
--Chrishm21 (talk) 22:08, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Chrishm21, I'm actually not developing anything at the moment. So please continue developing it and I have pinged Bluesatellite who I remember wanted to notify him/her when Like a Prayer was to be developed. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 05:10, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
- Bluesatellite has also stated that Like a Prayer is his favorite Madonna album. Snuggums (talk / edits) 05:19, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
- Great then, he/she can help Chrishm out. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 05:20, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
- Sure, I'll help everything I can. I'm just too moody to do an article alone, that's why so many pending works on my sanboxes :p Bluesatellite (talk) 08:13, 17 March 2015 (UTC)
- Please forgive the stalker comment: I'm not as huge a Madonna fan as some people on this thread, but I also think this is her best album and deserving of at least a GA status. I don't know what the view is in the US and elsewhere in the world, but in the UK the critics generally agree that this and Ray of Light are Madonna's two best albums. But more than that, it also marks a key transition from Madonna the pop artist of the 1980s to Madonna the adult musician, exploring more serious topics such as Catholicism and her failing marriage. As such, it should definitely be a prime candidate for improvement. I won't be back in the UK until the end of the year, but I can get hold of some back issues of UK music magazines (NME, Q, Melody Maker, etc.) from 1989 if you'd like them for the album reviews section, plus improve the citations for Rolling Stone... they're probably more noteworthy than the Yahoo! and Daily Vault reviews currently in the article.

template:singlechart
I don't see any evidence that you are testing your changes to the singlechart template before putting them live. Please test, get it to work, and then add it to the actual template. Mistakes in that template can damage many articles, and every edit forces the Wikimedia software to regenerate every article that uses it. Live changes are both dangerous and expensive. Additionally, can you show me any discussion where Zobble has been agreed to be a reliable source? I didn't put it in singlechart originally because it doesn't appear to meet WP:RS.—Kww(talk) 05:40, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
- Hi @Kww: sorry I did not know about the test box, and apologize for it. Will surely remember it. As for Zobbel, I added it to the template {{singlechart}} based on its presence in {{album chart}}. I did not look for a reliability discussion. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 06:55, 29 March 2015 (UTC)
Certification Table footnotes in Love the Way You Lie
Hi IndianBio,
Some time ago, you removed a footnote regarding BPI's inclusion of on-demand audio streaming below the Certification Table. However, you kept the one having to do with RIAA. If you don't mind, might I ask why? This is less me questioning your edit than it is my complete ignorance about how certifications work at all. I just wanted your explanation so that the edit would make sense to me. If there's something I'm missing here, do tell me please!
Thanks. The Wikipedian Penguin 20:26, 16 March 2015 (UTC)
- @Wikipedian Penguin: first of all apologies for missing out your ping here completely. Now if you are referring to this edit, then if you notice, the {{Certification Table Bottom}} template used has a provision for making Streaming=true parameter, which will inturn give the dagger symbol. Hence manually adding the symbol for UK is not required anymore. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 11:19, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

- I didn't see how much they take tbh. However, I really hate streaming services and I really think the charts should have not took streaming into counting positions, it's really blah. Especially for albums, which is more awful. — Tomíca(T2ME) 13:04, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
- Look at Nicki Minaj and Mark Ronson's albums, so high on the Billboard charts with so little sales. All because of streaming. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 13:06, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
- That's my point. Flop albums receiving high positions. Non-sense. Or songs that stay on the top for 100ds of weeks just because of the streaming. An example is the stupid "Uptown Funk". I even wonder how that song is a hit, so annoying -_-. — Tomíca(T2ME) 13:09, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
- Seriously, beyond irritating that song is. I never like these random one-hit wonder songs, case in point, "Blurred Lines". —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 13:39, 31 March 2015 (UTC)

- BBHMM would require high streaming and very very good, around 500K sales for it to beat UF. I don't think it can do it now, but maybe after 2/3 weeks. UF seems like it might pass 14 weeks also. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 17:31, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
- Indeed. Btw, I listened to Rebel Heart (Super Deluxe Edition) and I can say that the album is good, it's definitely better than MDNA. So sorry it flops :/. However, I really think the leaks affected it. Also the single underperform(ed). I really love "Ghosttown", I hope an iconic video is coming. — Tomíca(T2ME) 18:40, 31 March 2015 (UTC)
- Yeah I like the album, but not all of it. Lets be real, this is definitely a flopping album, and I love "Ghosttown" very much, but radios won't play it. Fuck them ageist a--holes. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 03:42, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

- Well, honestly, it has a lot of fluff, especially in the second portion of the album.

And yes, I don't know what's the problem with the radios not playing her -_-. — Tomíca(T2ME) 14:00, 1 April 2015 (UTC)

Hello IndianBio,
I noticed your comments at the SPI for Stillhrithik and given your username, I assume you are mostly involved in editing Indian-related topics. So I thought you might want to take a look at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Richa101091, this is currently the 3rd SPI I've opened against Richa101091, and one of the socks I listed on this most recent SPI was User:1Majd the same editor accused of being a sock of Stillhrithik. More likely both users are socks of Richa10191. I've been tracking this for a little while and it seems there is a HUGE meat/sock farm for these Indian-related film topics. I'm pretty sure this is paid editing by a large group to promote Hrithik, Fox Star Studios and related film companies. Take a look at the contribs of the users I listed as socks and they are all purely edits to these types of articles. Almost all of them have redlinks for their usernames. I believe they create hundreds of logins to Wikipedia, edit one or two articles a few times and then login as a new user to continue editing. Often old usernames that haven't been blocked will login after several months and do a few more edits again. Unfortunately the users I've listed at this SPI seem to only be the tip of the iceberg, I'm afraid there are hundrends of articles that they have tainted with their paid editing. I hope I'm wrong and just seeing ghosts, but I doubt it and am fairly certain Checkuser will reveal some startling results. -War wizard90 (talk) 06:26, 2 April 2015 (UTC)
- No you are not wrong. This is definitely paid editing to promote Hrithik Roshan. Just the editing on Paani was enough proof. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 06:45, 2 April 2015 (UTC)

Your constant undoing of certifiable facts
It seems that you just cannot allow any corrections on your many contributions to Wikipedia that what was originally written by yourself. You only consider European release dates for Madonna albums, and when I point out a mistake , such as the official name of Madonna's Blond Ambition tour, you immediately revert it and call my reference self-research. I will certainly obtain certifiable sources to prove what is official and what is not.

What I'm not going to allow is original research such as naming the tour and appending it with 90 without providing sources, which is your onus, not mine. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 16:07, 3 April 2015 (UTC)

The solution isn't to remove cited information to make it less accurate: it's to include more accurate information. Also, the version to which you are reverting wasn't all updated at the same time, so your point really makes no sense: you're reverting to an even less accurate version.

About changing genres
Hi IndianBio,
The reason for which I changed genres in some Lady Gaga's articles is because I think there are some imprecisions despite the cited sources. About the Artpop song, for example, if you link the 14th reference you'll see it's written "full on tech ballad". This word dosen't make the song a real techno track. If you listen to the song it is obvious that it isn't of the techno genre but is more dance pop and synthpop oriented. There aren't accurate sources about the genre of Artpop but it's not necessary to be an experienced music critic to understand that it's not a techno track.
I also added the word "dance pop" for Poker Face and Love Game and "synthpop" for Paparazzi and Bad Romance because these genres are dominant in these songs and the sources that I noted are generic and someone was deleted. Besides the dance pop and synthpop genres in the respective articles were cited in the past years so I wonder why they are deleted.
In Born this way (album) article it's written in the text "The music of Born This Way stems from the synthpop and dance-pop oriented styles" but in the box on the right side it's only written "dance pop" as genre. I think it's necessary to revise it.
Sorry if I am too fussy and I hope I didn't cause problems. -Davean12 (talk) 18:21, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
- Hi Davean12, it is great that you cared to explain them. Now Wikipedia goes by the policy of verifiability, which is when a source is present in the article through which it can verify the content. It does not go by our thoughts of a song's genre, which is considered original research and strictly forbidden here. So even if you may disagree with the said genres, if you can provide an updated source which lists the genre that you want it to be, we can add it, else not. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 16:35, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
- I'm not a music critic but in time I learnd to recognize the most well known genres, so I can notice when there's an imprecision. Besides, the recognition of a genre doesn't come from my thoughts but from a fact and my experience. The articles from which you draw the sources aren't always written by people who know the topic very well. It's not a problem if you don't cite the word "dance pop" for Poker Face or "synthpop" for Bad Romance but the genre of Artpop is clearly wrong. About Artpop the 14th source come from an article of Harper's Bazar, a fashion magazine, so they aren't very experienced about music. My advice is if there aren't articles that cite the genre of the song in an accurate way it's better not writing anything about that. -Davean12 (talk) 20:14, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
- @Davean12: It does not matter whether you find the source correct or not on a topic as subjective as music sub-genre or genre. If you want to question the source in general for it's specific notability, please bring it up with it's supported projects. Do not just replace them with what you feel is correct, as that is against WP:OR and WP:SUBJECTIVE. Andrzejbanas (talk) 14:21, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
- @Andrzejbanas: It's obvious that you don't understand what I wrote. My corrections weren't subjective and I didn't invent anything. I'm not that kind of person. Firstly I didnt't change genres, I only added genres that are written in the text and cited in the sources already and I only modified the style of some phrases not the general meaning (this is about the Tick tock, Your love is my drug and Take it off articles). I changed genres when I noted divergence between the cited word in the text and the source. For the Warrior album article you cited the word indie pop. I checked the respective source and this word doesn't appear on that, but techno-pop appears instead, so I replaced them. I also put the source number 2 for the word electropop because in that one this word is cited. You can check if you don't believe me. Besides, you put the word pop rock for the song Blah blah blah but there wasn't a source about that and it didn't mentioned in the text. The word dance is cited both in the text and in the source instead. I don't agree about the subjective of music genres. They can be subjective for people not because they really are subjective but because of the little knowledge about recognizing music genres. I'm not doing WP:OR and WP:SUBJECTIVE because I checked all the sources before replacing genres. Davean12 (talk) 18:37, 9 April 2015 (UTC)

- @Andrzejbanas: It's obvious that you don't understand what I wrote. My corrections weren't subjective and I didn't invent anything. I'm not that kind of person. Firstly I didnt't change genres, I only added genres that are written in the text and cited in the sources already and I only modified the style of some phrases not the general meaning (this is about the Tick tock, Your love is my drug and Take it off articles). I changed genres when I noted divergence between the cited word in the text and the source. For the Warrior album article you cited the word indie pop. I checked the respective source and this word doesn't appear on that, but techno-pop appears instead, so I replaced them. I also put the source number 2 for the word electropop because in that one this word is cited. You can check if you don't believe me. Besides, you put the word pop rock for the song Blah blah blah but there wasn't a source about that and it didn't mentioned in the text. The word dance is cited both in the text and in the source instead. I don't agree about the subjective of music genres. They can be subjective for people not because they really are subjective but because of the little knowledge about recognizing music genres. I'm not doing WP:OR and WP:SUBJECTIVE because I checked all the sources before replacing genres. Davean12 (talk) 18:37, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
- @Davean12: It does not matter whether you find the source correct or not on a topic as subjective as music sub-genre or genre. If you want to question the source in general for it's specific notability, please bring it up with it's supported projects. Do not just replace them with what you feel is correct, as that is against WP:OR and WP:SUBJECTIVE. Andrzejbanas (talk) 14:21, 9 April 2015 (UTC)
- I'm not a music critic but in time I learnd to recognize the most well known genres, so I can notice when there's an imprecision. Besides, the recognition of a genre doesn't come from my thoughts but from a fact and my experience. The articles from which you draw the sources aren't always written by people who know the topic very well. It's not a problem if you don't cite the word "dance pop" for Poker Face or "synthpop" for Bad Romance but the genre of Artpop is clearly wrong. About Artpop the 14th source come from an article of Harper's Bazar, a fashion magazine, so they aren't very experienced about music. My advice is if there aren't articles that cite the genre of the song in an accurate way it's better not writing anything about that. -Davean12 (talk) 20:14, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
It is mostly a grammar issue
Do you have something against correct grammar? My revisions not only make your entry better; they make your entry grammatically correct. Leave it alone, please.Miro101 (talk) 08:16, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
- Miro101 you are continuously adding the dance as tango, which is not supported by any of the sources, and being a synopsis, should not require one, but we cannot add our own interpretation. You are being warned for adding original research and if you do not stop, you will be reported and get yourself blocked. Simple as that. —Indian:BIO [ ChitChat ] 16:37, 11 April 2015 (UTC)
Template: Certification Table Entry
I think we have a problem with the one for Denmark. As of November 2014, they changed the shipments (ex. it was 15,000 for Gold, now it's 30,000), however, it still shows 15,000 even when you make the certyear=2015. Do you know how to fix this issue? — Tomíca(T2ME) 18:25, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

Hello. I re-nominated "Only Girl (In the World)" for FAC 8 days ago, but I haven't had any comments. As you commented in the previous one, I was wondering if you wouldn't mind re-reading and seeing if I have address your comments from the previous nomination. Thanks. — ₳aron 10:06, 26 April 2015 (UTC)

hello there
It's hard to not admire a person that has taken the time to revert EACH & every ONE of my edits on various pages (well, not each & every one of them, but darn close enough) since I joined this site about a year back. But recently, I've been doing a little thinking and I can't help but wonder that perhaps, this is your way of insinuating that maybe, just maybe... you're interested in something more?
