GAON Chart

Someone is keep posting that "Smile" charted at #11 on the Gaon Chart and gives this as the source, but I don't see the songs there. Is it just me, or is he/she spamming? --Greeneyed soul (talk) 14:06, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The GAON website is a valid source, but WP:CHARTS says "Please also note that the website's design does not allow any direct links to specific charts; as such, you must specify the week in your reference." So any link to the website must specify the week in order to be a valid reference.

With that said, I tried searching the website but couldn't find any instance of this song at #11 in the past few weeks. But I could be missing something. Chrome's translation of the website barely does anything at all. ~ [ Scott M. Howard ] ~ [ Talk ]:[ Contribs ] ~ 14:22, 17 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Music video screenshots

Just watched it and thought I'd snag a few shots. Although the music video section of the article can be expanded some, it looks like there's enough critical commentary on the main parts of the video for an image to be used in accordance with fair use. These are PNG images (so they may just a skosh longer to load than JPG) and aren't cropped or reduced in size yet. If no one likes them, obviously others can be suggested: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5]. My personal preference would be one (like the second and third examples) where she can be seen in the room with graffiti. I couldn't get a good frame of her holding the pink heart at the end. That would be a cool image too, perhaps, and would also fit the critical commentary regarding both the room and picking up pieces of glass/plastic. – Kerαunoςcopia^◁_galaxies 14:28, 20 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
