DYK for Cockiness (Love It)
On 16 December 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Cockiness (Love It), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that according to one critic, Rihanna appeared to be "channelling" Swedish singer-songwriter and rapper Neneh Cherry on "Cockiness (Love It)" in a "pseudo-melodic" impersonation? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Cockiness (Love It).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. |

DYK for Red Lipstick
On 17 December 2011, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Red Lipstick, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that "Red Lipstick" was reminiscent of songs featured on Rihanna's fourth studio album Rated R (2009), with specific comparisons to "G4L" and "Wait Your Turn"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Red Lipstick.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.

Your GA nomination of Skin (Rihanna song)
The article Skin (Rihanna song) you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold . The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Skin (Rihanna song) for things which need to be addressed. Jonayo!

Song articles
Hey Aaron. First off, I wrote to you on my page :) Next, I seem to disagree with some of these newly created song articles, and would like to first discuss it with you, as you are the main RiRi guy. So, articles like "Red Lipstick" and "Fool in Love" seem to be pushing the envelope of notability. "Cockiness (Love It)" is also an issue. See, even if "WHYB" or "TTT" didn't receive much coverage yet (still far more than these three), they are most probably singles 3 & 4, so there isn't a point in messing with them. These three, however, are bonus tracks and songs that I can assure you won't ever see the light of day. Another issue, they are all around 12K of info, with most of it being a re-hash (no offense intended buddy, I did the same with Mimi albums ;)) of background info on Loud and TTT as a whole, though 'nothing directly correlated to the songs or their composition. Without the "Background and development" sections, they maybe have two paragraphs of actual info a piece. I am not going to lie to you, I would like to see these three articles deleted.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 21:08, 19 December 2011 (UTC)
- To be honest Nathan, they pass WP:SONGS, and have all charted on several charts. Actually, I acknowledge that there isn't a lot of info on them, because I haven't finished adding to them. Look at the Lead on Cockiness for example, not finished yet. They aren't any different to Rather Die Young, Kitty Kat (song) or Honesty (the latter of which isn't even a single). Calvin • Watch n' Learn 13:17, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Don't even try to bring Beyonce's articles again. Her articles are well written. Did you read their composition sections, the critical reception, etc. And "Honesty" is a cover. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 13:26, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Jivesh, when have I ever said that Beyonce articles are not well written? Never. I'm simply using a few as examples. Why should one of the thee Nathan mentioned be deleted when Honesty is two paragraphs long? This is not going to turn into an argument, there is no need for it and it is pointless. It ends here. Calvin • Watch n' Learn 13:29, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- They cannot be used to exemplify what you want. Her articles meet both WP:GNG and WP:NSONGS. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 13:31, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- So do the Rihanna ones. I can't help that there is about 10x the amount of Critical info for 4 than Talk That Talk. Mores to the point, Skin and Freakum Dress never charted, but they are here still. Calvin • Watch n' Learn 13:33, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Oh yes and what about the composition? So you mean that the TTT song articles meet WP:GNG? And your statement is false. There are nearly the same numbers of reviews for both albums. It just depends on how much patience you have to filter Google search results. And I don't know about "Skin" but it is an article that can be greatly improved. It does not even stand next to FD and you know that. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 13:37, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- (edit conflict) There is hardly no info, and they have all charted on multiple charts. Fine, I will re-construct them then. And about Skin, are you saying I'm shit and writing articles and you are perfect? Calvin • Watch n' Learn 13:41, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- No I never said that. Just like you never said that Beyonce articles are not well written. If you interpreted my sentence with so much negativity... I can't help it. I also never said I was perfect. If I was, I would have only supports at the FAC with no comment on the prose, etc. What I mean was that FD is not in the same vein on "Skin". Even if I remove that background section and its video, it still has a decent composition, CR and live performances. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 13:45, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Well that's what it sounded like by saying "It does not even stand next to FD and you know that.", which does imply that the article is not well written. Let's stop here, it's unnecessary. I'm not in a good mood now after waking up to a few messages on my talk page and this is not making it better. I think it's good I am leaving on Saturday, will give me some thinking time.

Edit warring
You seem to be edit warring on Te Amo, per [1] and [2]. You really haven't got a leg to stand on: the material is sourced properly to the physical magazine. That's what's demanded in WP:Record charts and supported by WP:V#Access to sources.—Kww(talk) 03:32, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Two reverts is not edit warring, the second of which was a mistake. I did press cancel but it did it anyway. I didn't break the three-revert rule so don't come here giving me all that. User:Decodet actually did make three reverts but you haven't warned him I see, such double standards. Calvin • Watch n' Learn 13:19, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Did you see a template or a big red warning sign? Just because I'm an admin doesn't mean that every comment I make is a prelude to a block or something. Decodet knows not to go past 3RR, but he's in the frustrating case of reverting edits that are going against guidelines but aren't vandalism. Your second revert (the mistake) had no summary, which was what caught my eye.—Kww(talk) 13:38, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- But still, he made more reverts than me, thus edit warred more with me. Yet you haven't warned him. Calvin • Watch n' Learn 13:42, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Because if he crosses 3RR, I will block him without warning.—Kww(talk) 13:49, 20 December 2011 (UTC)

Congratulations
Hi, Calvin. How are you doing? I've just watched you're the one who edits on most of Rihanna articles and I had to come here to congratulate you for your work! I'm from Brazil and I also contribute on articles about music (my favorite singers are Kerli and Pixie Lott) on the Portuguese Wikipedia because I want to improve their quality as much as I can. Keep on doing your amazing work here on Wikipedia. I really like to read the Rihanna articles you edit. (Sorry if my English is bad).

December 2011
Your recent editing history at Rehab (Rihanna song) shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block.
If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. You may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly. — Legolas (talk2me) 14:44, 26 December 2011 (UTC)

Already Jivesh told you that. Just a friendly advice. Trust me or not. — Tomica1111 • Question Existing? 16:55, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
- This is the last I will say of this, but Rehab passed because your close personal friends, who also massively edited the article during the FAC, supported it. Therefore, if your friends are going to help you and (wrongly, in my opinion) going to support it afterwards, then it is easy for it to pass, especially if you get an FA delegate who doesn't care about such things. That was the main reason why I had a problem with Rehab passing, but I don't think I have ever given you a straight up answer.

The cake is a lie
Just reviewed "Birthday Cake" at Template:Did you know nominations/Birthday Cake (song) and I have a couple of ALTs you may want to consider. As for the article reviews taking forever... Christine Hakim sat there for nearly a month, while the attached nomination First Love was reviewed in a week. Argh. Crisco 1492 (talk) 16:45, 12 January 2012 (UTC)
- Perhaps indeed. I have almost 200 starting from April 2011, so about 50% of my archives are DYK templates. However, it helps that articles on Indonesia are in very poor shape generally. For example, one of the most important Indonesian poets, Chairil Anwar, had an 1154 character stub before I expanded it. Another, Amir Hamzah, didn't even have an article. Heck, almost half of the National Heroes are redlinks! Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:30, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

- That's not what I said? I said there is no point listing it for GOCE because it will probably take ages to get a copy-editor. To be honest, I think that certain editors, myself included, are becoming to reliant on getting copy-editors to re-write things. It doesn't always get you anywhere. For each of S&M's FACs, a different person, or even people, have gone through the article, yet there are still concerns with the prose.

Hey- you were right that the GA review was not eligible, but you shouldn't have removed it yourself- instead, you should have contacted one of the judges. It saves the sort of fratching that occurred on that particular submission page, and stops a bad atmosphere being fostered. Rest assured that Ed and I are checking through every submission at this stage in the competition, and so it would have been caught. As I say, though, if you're worried, contacting one of the judges would be the best move. Thanks, J Milburn (talk) 22:06, 15 January 2012 (UTC)

Re:HI
Yes, provided that significant work has been done on the article during 2012. So, let's say that you worked on an article all through December and got it to 10kb, then expanded it through January to 15kb before nominating it today, you would be able to claim points if/when it passes GAC. Thanks, J Milburn (talk) 17:48, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
- That's a hell of an article. Looking at your edits to the article this year, I do not think that it could be accepted if it passed this time, as your changes have been small. If it failed, and you subsequently worked on the article based on the suggestions of the reviewer and then successfully renominated, then so be it, but please don't try to do that, as gaming the system with a double-point article could cause some real upset. However, I would be open to the notion of you taking it to FAC and claiming the points- provided you continue to work on the article during the GAC and subsequently, in preparation for the FAC. As this would be worth double, that's a whopping 200 points. Either way, best of luck; I can tell a lot of love has gone into that article. J Milburn (talk) 18:20, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

- No silly, in general. Calling other artist's like Rihanna, Perry, Madonna as sluts, name-calling, edit warring etc etc. Got that person blocked indefinitely for it. — Legolas (talk2me) 14:54, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

Digital sheet music
Hi :) I was wondering how you find the digital sheet music for songs online? I have been looking everywhere for the one of About a Girl but still no luck. Till I Go Home (talk) 09:38, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
- The Sugababes song? There isn't one for that song, I just looked. Aaron • You Da One 18:18, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks for checking, then is it impossible to find out the beats per minute and what key it's composed in etc. ? Till I Go Home (talk) 04:27, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
Hello
Can you cast your eyes over S&M again please? Aaron • You Da One 23:19, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
- I have to say, I'm really impressed with the article. You have done a wonderful job. I'm not sure its going to pass now, with so many oppose votes. Let's see if they respond. I copy-edited a few areas, but don't have time to do everything. But, I'll say this: with a few similar tweaks, you have my full support! Orane (talk) 01:39, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
- Calvin, I've never helped anyone out on Wikipedia just to have them show me gratitude. But to be honest, if I go out of my way to copyedit your article, I do expect a thank you. And, even if you don't say it, I expect that you won't take all the credit for the rewrite and say that you did it, as you did here. Jivesh said to you, "I see you have re-written it." And your response to him was "Yep". This bothers me. Even if it was only a few sentences. Orane (talk) 19:44, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
S&M FAC
Hey Calvin, I just saw that Sandy failed the nomination. But don't get too worked up on it, I am almost certain that it will pass at the next nomination for sure. Even Sandy stated it on the FAC. I hope this note of encouragement will help you strive to get the article to FAC, I know you can do it! Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 19:50, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
- Thanks. I'm moving away from S&M for a while though, maybe in late February/early March I will take it back, but not for several weeks. Aaron • You Da One 19:54, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
Question
Calvin, are you interpreting the lyrics by yourself? I mean you are explaining them after quoting the lyrics and most of the sources do not support your POV. Lyrical interpretation surely means interpreting the lyrics but only if you have sources doing that for you. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 08:58, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
- No Jivesh, that is what the reviewer said. The wrote an entire paragraph just on Stupid in Love. Aaron • You Da One 13:36, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
- Calvin. I assure you that I checked the other sources. They contain the lyrics only. I can paste the source and the prose in it separately if you want. There is one which is good, nevertheless, you went really into details to the point of putting your POV (i think). Jivesh1205 (Talk) 15:45, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
- as Rihanna insists she is not the person who her boyfriend projects her to be, making the singer feel as though she is worthless.
- the singer begins to realize that she is worth more than how she is treated by her boyfriend, and starts to question how she is spoken to.
- as she implies that she is the one who made the most effort in the relationship but is unappreciated by her boyfriend.
None of these are supported by the sources. They only quote lyrics, so this leads to the conclusion they are your interpretation(s). I am not telling you that your interpretations are bad... but they are not sourced --> WP:OR / WP:SYN. And be careful on the words you use. For instance, represents the moment of realization whereby Rihanna knows that she is too good for her boyfriend. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 16:07, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
- OKay. How did you make the infobox template for IASF and 4? Loud needs one. Aaron • You Da One 18:24, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Madonna
Sorry, I just saw today that I forgot to answer your question. Yes, I saw her at The Graham Norton Show, and she was so so funny. Especially the part about scolding her children and that Hungarian interview. — Legolas (talk2me) 12:55, 25 January 2012 (UTC)
- Haha, yes she came off like that. It's a known fact that Madonna has always been very very caustic in her public appearances, I did not expect this one to be too different. I loved the scenario, when D'Arcy says, "tell us about your book Slut!" LMAO — Legolas (talk2me) 13:38, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Didn't you notice that there are no new lyrics and that the person who made the video altered the level of the fade when she says "I wanna fuck you right now"? Plus, the order in which lyrics occur are wrong from the original. This is just a fan made extended version of the original 1:18 version. Aaron • You Da One 12:07, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

Aaron, my friend, this absolutely needs another look at. The song, God forbid, which does not say much for itself, and was de-regulated to a "song" from a promotional single by another user, was indeed a promotiomal-released single; though I absolutely cannot show anything "verifying" this, was released as is, with both identical A and B-side showings. Please take this into consideration, and let me know what you think. Promotional single restoration is immenent! Thanks! --Discographer (talk) 19:58, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

Hey
Do not get wrong, but I was about to get started on "If I Never See Your Face Again". There was an under construction template, that was removed by bot, because Ben came on my talk page and asked about help on "DSTM". — Tomica (talk) 21:45, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- Oh, well I've planned on doing it for a while. It's in my list. Aaron • You Da One 21:53, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- Well sorry I didn't saw your list. But you for sure saw the under construction template on the article. I mean, how much better I am with you, I don't get anything from that. — Tomica (talk) 21:54, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- I never saw an under construction template Tomica. If I saw you had put one there, I wouldn't have touched it. Aaron • You Da One 21:57, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- You wanted to work on it and was on your list, but didn't had it on the watchlist. Mmmm weird. — Tomica (talk) 22:03, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah it's on my watchlist, but so are over 560 other articles. I don't scan each article every time a log on. I just looked at the articles history. Don't take this the wrong way, but you put an under construction banner on the article on January 13, then a bot removed it on January 23. You, or anyone else for that matter, didn't make an edit between Jan 13 and Jan 23, and no on else had until I did just now, so you made no conscious effort to start working on it, so it is quite easy for you to say that you were just about to start working on it. I'm not arguing, I'm just stating the obvious. Aaron • You Da One 22:08, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
- Sure, you are stating the obvious as always. I already explained what was the reason why I didn't start for it, though I searched for sources that are now in my sandbox. — Tomica (talk) 01:22, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- Well, can't you see where I'm coming from? Okay you didn't start it because of DSTM, but I didn't know that. You didn't start editing the article and I didn't know you had plans to. Aaron • You Da One 01:45, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

I don't think it's a big deal. If you really want to work on some article or care for it, it is natural that you are expected to take a look at it if someone (apart from you) edited it. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 05:27, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

- Even if I did, no one had edited for 15 days Jivesh, surely you would think the same as me and think no one was intending to edit it. Two weeks is quite a long time not a single person to edit an article. Come online. Aaron • You Da One 12:33, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- So what if the template was removed? I already explained to you, that there was reason for its removal. I got the article on "stand by", because Ben came to my talk page asking to help him with "Don't Stop the Music", but since he 'disappeared' and you can barely see these days on Wikipedia, I took nearly all the job from the article. You could ask me about If I intended to work on the article. I really don't found fair this way of sneaking around, finding 53454 sources and beginning a fast expansion. — Tomica (talk) 12:42, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah you explained to me yesterday after I had started editing. I can't read minds Tomica, how would I have known if you had intentions for editing. With regard to putting sources on the talk page, I've done it for a lot of articles before now. This is not the first time. Aaron • You Da One 12:49, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- Exactly, you don't read minds, but instead you read you watchlist. I am 90% sure you saw the adding of the template. Its impossible, the article has pretty much long name, + there are not so much edits on me, so probably it was weird that something happened with it. — Tomica (talk) 12:52, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
- You may be 90% sure, but you are 100% wrong. I'm sorry I didn't see you make one edit on the article over two weeks ago. Enough now. Aaron • You Da One 13:00, 29 January 2012 (UTC)

THIS IS A HOT MESS. So please, stop it both of you. Aaron, next time please check an article's history before working on it. And Tom, you go right now to your page and make a list of all the articles on which you will work. I know Calvin told you not to work on the TTT ones. But you can still work on the others though I know IINSYFA is also a non-TTT song. But to prevent further argument, let Aaron do it for this time. I know you are very comprehensive Tom. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 13:07, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
