Could you reply on Madonna's GAR?

I fixed most things. Ultra! 14:55, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

The editer has made a good attempt. However they have marked some of my comments as DONE when they still need improvement. I added comments saying that it wasnt sufficient. Ive left comments there, im considering going through it myself removing crappy sources/dead links and adding Fact tags. Also i might add fact tags to sections that need sourcing point blank. Leave your thoughts regarding this at the madonna review.

Also i cant believe the support that the JJ project is getting. Cant wait. Cheers. --Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 19:20, 26 May 2008 (UTC)

Madonna, could you take another look, update your thoughts or decision cheers. --— Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 04:12, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Ha, cheers, i feel old. --— Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 02:48, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

B'day worldwide sales

Hey Efe how's it going. Do you know of a way to get the sales info from United World Chart for Beyonce's B'Day. Oh and also I thikn I may have asked this before but do you think you can get the page semi protected so that people would actually have to log in to edit it?

Thanks your so great lol.PhoenixPrince (talk) 23:47, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Remember me and this award :-)

Baby Boy

I made some changes to the article, and even though it was a lot better than the DC article, it might still need some work to get to FA status. There are a few things that need looking at:

  • What does it mean that the tour "began from late 2003 to early 2004"? It can only begin at one point in time, did it last this long?
  • There's an inconsistency between "Murder She Wrote" and "Murder He Wrote". This may not be wrong, but it needs clarification.
  • Under "Chart performance": "attained more and immediate commercial success than". This makes no sense to me at all.
  • Description of the video does not require sourcing, as the video is the source. Still WP:POV terms like "footage designed to have sex appeal"/"Knowles tosses herself sensually" should be avoided.
  • In the same section: "Scenes of Knowles and Sean Paul are separate." If the two artists do not appear together, I assume this is because they shot the video at different times, perhaps even at different locations. Can you find sources for this?
    • No. But its in the video. There is no scene where two is present. They always have different scenes. Like Knowles with a man; Sean with girls. --Efe (talk) 06:53, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

Good luck! Lampman Talk to me! 13:26, 27 May 2008 (UTC)

Well, I'm no expert copyeditor, there may still be comma-errors, I just fixed the problems that seemed most glaring to me. Anyway, seems the article has been promoted now, so congratulations! Lampman Talk to me! 21:48, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi there! I notice you've made some recent edits to the article for The Marrow of a Bone, but I'm not entirely sure why you executed some of these actions. Is there a particular reason you've removed the second album cover and shifted the track listing nearer to the bottom of the page? Regards. --Jacob Talk 14:01, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

LOL

Efe, dont edit wikipedia while intoxicated, the results aren't good. ;-) --— Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 13:08, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Also, take a look at the JJ talk page. Consider putting the article on your watchlist to keep up to date with the dialogue, your input would be great, cheers. — Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 21:20, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

Your note

Actually, WP:AIV would be the place to go if the user kept adding unsourced information after a final warning, and if a request there was rejected, any admin or ANI itself would be fine to go to. Acalamari 23:53, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

I wasn't 100% sure what the question was, but I tried to answer it as best I could. dihydrogen monoxide (H2O) 08:29, 31 May 2008 (UTC)

Re "Baby Boy" FAC

(copied over from my talk page:) Will do. Sorry I've been slow. --jbmurray (talkcontribs) 00:53, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

"Crazy in Love" ft Vanness Wu

I just noticed your adjustment, and thank you! I was really at a loss as to where it should go. Most of the article seems to deal with the song's structure, writing background, and chart success. I've read some more info about the history of how the collaboration with Vanness came to be and how it was written, but I can't find the source now. If it turns up again, I'll add to the new section you've created. Thanks again! --Hamuhamu (talk) 08:11, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Beyoncé

Hi Efe, thanks for the invite to the Déjà Vu PR; boy it sure can be lonely out there on peer reviews these days. I try and take a look in the next few days, but no promises. Meanwhile, any interest chipping in on the FAC for Doggystyle. Ceoil (talk) 23:37, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I saw that, and thanks. Best of luck with your own FAC. Ceoil (talk) 01:01, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
I'm delighted Baby Boy was promoted; congratulations....Sir! Ceoil (talk) 01:13, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Re: JT

You're welcome. ;) Got anymore articles? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 23:31, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Alright, just hit me up and I'll see what I can do. ;) Hey, do you only review music articles? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 14:23, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Feedback

Ive added a paragraph about the music of the song itself, its amazing how little it written about the lead single in reviewers or from Janet herself. Could you take a look and give me your opinions, its close to GA but id like your thoughts first, cheers. --— Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 02:40, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Ill try getting more together, not now though, its late where I am, but at least we are getting closer. ;-) --— Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 03:33, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

I read all the album reviewers on the discipline article, the reviews on the single and an interview she gave. Thats all I could pull together, mostly everything it about the album as a whole. Im sure I can get another mini paragraph together though. — Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 03:41, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Im going to put the article up now, ive added a bit more to the article, it should be enough, if not itl be put on hold for a week and I have time to sort it out then. Fingers crossed. — Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 20:59, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

"Number" and "#"

Any guideline states a preference? Coz wherever I've read its always #. Ultra! 05:26, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Rihanna discography

Hi Efe! I was just wondering if you could help me with something. Recently there have been numerous users boldfacing the #1's in the singles discography, so I was wondering if you (if you already havent) could add this page on your watchlist and help me stop users from boldfacing and let them know that this violates wikipedia's policy regarding netural point of view. I have left a message on the discography's talk page. Thanks. JayJ47 (talk) 23:44, 8 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks again. :) JayJ47 (talk) 11:44, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Why are you removing fields from citations in this article? Please restore. Cirt (talk) 08:39, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

I added this info back. I feel that the publisher info is useful in a citation. It certainly is not harmful. Cirt (talk) 08:43, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

Arise article

Efe, I've finished my editing on the Arise (album) article. Please check it. Thanks again, Musicaindustrial (talk) 03:19, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Be checking it now. --Efe (talk) 03:32, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

UWC

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/United World Chart - incase you use this as a source in any of your projects, dont, it will only have to be removed at GA/FA. I would actively remove it from any article you see providing this link, cheers. — Realist2 (Come Speak To Me) 08:12, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Release history on ...Baby One More Time

I added back the release history that you recently deleted from ...Baby One More Time. Per Wikipedia:ALBUM#Released: "Only the earliest known date that the album was released should be specified, using a single occurrence of  (), for example July 31, 2007 (2007-07-31) (or July 2007 (2007-07) or 2007 (2007) if the exact date isn't known). Later release dates can be mentioned in a Release history section." Also per Wikipedia:ALBUM#Release_history: "Albums are often released on different dates, on different labels, and on different formats in different regions. This information can be included in a table. Note that the infobox should only include the first release date and label." Therefore anytime there is more than one release date in an album/song infobox all but the earliest needs to be deleted from the infobox and all of the release dates need to be put in a Release history section on the article. Aspects (talk) 20:12, 12 June 2008 (UTC)

Hello Aspects. Nice to meet you and thanks for dropping by. I actually knew about the release date entry in the infobox, that it should only the earliest known release date be added. Since the article only states two release date, which is January for US and Canada and March for UK, I decided to put them all in the infobox. Anyway, it will not crowd much. But for the guideline's sake, I will agree with your suggestion to remove it in the infobox. But since its only two dates, I will incorporate it in the prose, in the preceding section which is very much related. --Efe (talk) 06:58, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Hi, this discussion, which you were involved in, has been restarted. Please take another look and try and get this wrapped up sooner rather than later. :-) Cheers, giggy (:O) 12:01, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for the information. --Efe (talk) 07:35, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
