Introduction

  • Paragraph 1
  • '...collaborations he was involved with and topping the chart' — which chart? UK, US?
  • 'His decisions regarding which followers to retweet is a random decision' — clarify please?
  • 'For a brief time in 2011, Bieber quit Twitter' — I'd like a bit more than that. What date did he quit? When did he come back?
  • 'When Bieber makes a joke on Twitter about what he is doing, it often gets mistaken by people as the truth and ends up reported as true elsewhere' — the source (#13) says about a supergroup. Please explain in article.
  • 'Author Mike Skinner in "The Story of the Streets" says based on the Twitter metrics, "all roads lead to Justin Bieber"' — says ⇒ said. "The Story of the Streets" ⇒ italics needed, as it is title. However, not that notable — could be removed.
  • Paragraph 2
  • Paragraph 3
  • Paragraph 4
  • 'After hitting the 6 million Twitter follower total in November 2010, Bieber gave a shout out to his followers, saying "6 MILLION OF THE GREATEST FANS ON EARTH ON TWITTER!!!! THANK U"[23] Following this news being picked up, #6millionbeliebers became a trending topic on Twitter' — only include higher ones in my sight.
  • 'When he passed the 11 million follower count' — when?
  • '... he tweeted "#11MillionBeliebers! I LOVE YOU ALL!! THANK YOU....tonight was already a fun great night and now it is even better. THANK U THANK U THANK U' — cut quote with an ellipsis, I don't need a full tweet which is easily researchable.
  • 'In December 2011, following Drew's dismissal from The X Factor' — Drew-who? Which X Factor? Normal? US? etc. Possibly removable.
  • Quite short. Possibly could be merged into Paragraph 1.

Technology, marketing and the media

  • Paragraph 1
  • Again; 'at one point accounted for three percent of all Twitter related traffic' — when?
  • 'This resulted in over 180 million page views for the service each month' — what is meant there? Twitter? @justinbieber? Explanation required.
  • 'In 2010, Stephen Colbert, Drake and Justin Bieber were the three most re-tweeted celebrities on the site' — any specific time, or is this throughout the whole of 2010? Clarification required.
  • 'Immediately following Bieber updating, sixty responses to him are posted a second' — when? What is meant by that? Is what is trying to be said that when he posts something, sometimes [(when?)] he gets up to 60 responses in a second. Also, sixty ⇒ 60, as it is below 10.
  • 'In fact, he was named the top trending star on Twitter in 2010' — I don't like the way that is worded, removing 'In fact, ' would be suitable.
  • 'Bieber fans were upset with Twitter and tried to cheat the new algorithm by getting related words and mispellings connected to Bieber to trend including the words Twieber and Jieber' — remove? I see no point in saying that they were upset, because not all of them would be. Maybe 'some' would be more applicable in this case.
  • 'Bieber related topics would continue to trend on Twitter,[47] including MSG-ANNIVERSARY[48][49][50] Beliebers Love Jelena,[51] and "Happy Birthday Pattie"' — remove comma before reference 47, add comma after MSG-MSG-ANNIVERSARY, remove comma after 'Beliebers Love Jelena' due to the fact that 'and' follows after it.
  • Paragraph 2
  • Paragraph 3
  • Paragraph 4
  • '8.3% of tweets mentioning "bieber" were semi-automated and probably Twitter related spam' — when? Also, capitalise "Bieber" as it is a name.
  • Paragraph 5

Followers and fans

  • Not much to say here, so it's okay

Twitter mishaps and controversy

  • Paragraph 1
  • 'Bieber, along with other celebrities, has been the subject of the false reports of his death on Twitter,[4][122][123] including reports in 2011' — what time in 2011?
  • Paragraph 2
  • Fine.
  • Paragraph 3
  • Fine.
  • Paragraph 4
  • 'Bieber made a tweet that said “call me now.” and included a phone number for a Texas couple' — when? I know in March 2012 it says about the legal-stuff, but when was the tweet sent?
  • Paragraph 5
  • Paragraph 6
  • Grand-ish, nothing major.

I'll put this on hold for now so the issues are addressed. Regards, TAP 20:00, 9 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, will try to pass later. TAP 10:24, 10 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
