Hi!
Hey there, how is work today? ;) I'm busy procrastinating and not doing a paper that I need to get started on, because it's kinda due tomorrow! Fun!!! ;) CarpetCrawlermessage me 04:47, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Phew! Finally put the finishing touches on it. Time to relax and edit Wiki. :) How are things with you? CarpetCrawlermessage me 05:11, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Me too. Just had some coffee and came back to desk and saw your message. Work pressure is not that much. I was watching the new Harry Potter trailer. It looks awesome. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:58, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Good. :) I decided to go an nominate "I Go to Extremes" for GA status. I figured that I expanded it as much as I did, and why not go and nominate it anyway? I doubt it'll pass, but no harm done in trying. :) So basically, if you have any contributions, like refs and such, feel free to add them. ;) So anyway, how's True Blue coming along? I know album articles are a real pain in the rear to do work on. :( CarpetCrawlermessage me 06:03, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- I just checked the article. Its missing a detailed chart performance which i think you can easily find by referencing the links used in the MAdonna articles. Billboard can also be an essential source as they list other countries as well. I think a chart performance descriotion is necessary. Also the name Song history can be changed to Background or Writing because if I remember correctly they somehow see the word Song history negatively in GA (I remember it reading in WP:SINGLE). True Blue is still going on. I'll need a major peer review and copyedit once I finish it. I'm still left with the Impact, Live performance and song reactions. Help me out!!! --Legolas (talk2me) 06:13, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- OK, points duly noted. :) Also, I am currently looking through True Blue in your sandbox, and noticed this. ""Papa Don't Preach" was released as the second single in the end of 1986." But then it says the third single was released in September. So how could Madonna have released her third single before her second single? ;) Did you mean to say the end of Spring or Summer of 1986? CarpetCrawlermessage me 06:17, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Told you, it still needs major copyediting. Actually its June 1986. --Legolas (talk2me) 06:21, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

(Outdent) I just finished reading it... DAMN! That puts my work on NJR to shame! A ton of research went into that article, I can tell. Wouldn't "song reactions" be the same as "reception"? ;) Also, live performances, any information that you can take from the single articles? I'll take a look by searching around for articles on Madonna's tour from that timeframe, though it won't be easy. :-/ I'll see what I can do! CarpetCrawlermessage me 06:24, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Don't Tell me. NJR has been my muse behind this biggy. Actually by reaction I meant the controversy behind the song "Papa Don't Preach". The other controversy with the OYH video I covered in the Music Video section, but couldnot think of any other name for the controversy section. The word "controversy" is generally avoided for GA or FAs, hence couldnot think anything else. Let's see, I'll ask Realist2. Also Live performances, donot worry I'll be able to find from books. The album was mostly supported by 1987's Who's That Girl Tour. I'll get all my details from there. Cheers for your help!! --Legolas (talk2me) 06:28, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Oooohh! PLEASE let me help you look for "Papa Don't Preach" reaction info, that sounds like it'll be fun to research! :) And I have to say OYH is my favorite Madonna video. ;) CarpetCrawlermessage me 06:31, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- My favourite Madonna video always has been "Ray of Light", but before it came out, "Bedtime Story" was my favourite. I'm just yearning to work on the "Erotica" and "Bedtime Stories" era of Madonna since it is one of the most underrated and controversial era. By the way, did you get Cyndi's new cd? --Legolas (talk2me) 06:35, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, and I love "Lucky Star", as well as "Like a Virgin"! :) And yes, those eras are when Madonna began to lose her popularity. I wonder if the "Erotica" book has been made into a GA yet. I think I'll take that, for... erm... "research" purposes... ;) OK I kid I kid! And no, I haven't bought it yet (Nor have I bought the latest dance remixes album she had made,) though I've heard both "Into the Nightlife" and "Same Ol' Story" and LOVE them both! :) CarpetCrawlermessage me 06:39, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Don't worry. You, me and Frcm will be working on Borderline, Lucky Star, Holiday etc once I'm done with "True Blue". And...ehm... Erotica book... good for research as its healthy for mind and body. But sadly its still not a GA like the other Madonna articles. You know that was one of my main purposes for coming to Wikipedia. I can't believe there's still no Madonna wikiproject and the articles are lying in such pathetic states. "Into the Nightlife" was OK though I feel she lost her "I Drove All Night" charm by being too commercial. --Legolas (talk2me) 06:45, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- LOL, see? You agree! It's good for... "research". A good encyclopedia article involves heavy research! Even if it involves a lot of staring. ;) Actually if I could I'd censor all photos of Vanilla Ice in the book, LOL. Yeah, I came (Har har, first we talk about the Madonna book, then say we "came"! ;) ) to Wikipedia for the sole purpose of fixing music articles, because it seems like unless you're a Gwen Stefani fan, there's really not much featured article or good article content of music artists. Which is why I'm so happy with the work everyone has been doing! :) RE: Cyndi. I agree 100%, I feel the problem is that she peaked with her first album. I love Cyndi to death, and I love her songs, even from the later years, but you can't top her first album, and not even in the fan's minds. Ask 100 people to name a Cyndi song, 50 will say "Girls Just Want to Have Fun", the rest will say "She Bop" or "Time After Time". MAYBE one person will say "True Colors". After She's So Unusual, her fans expected more of her wacky persona and songs, and Cyndi wanted to go in a totally different direction. The True Colors has some of the wackiness intact, but it's got some serious songs latched on, like Boy Blue, and Cyndi loved her serious songs; the critics didn't. I love a lot of Cyndi's later stuff, like her last true big hit, "I Drove All Night", and "Sally's Pigeons", which is really disturbing stuff. I also love her "Hat Full of Stars" album. Her problem is that she didn't realize until it was too late, that she was popular when she was the wacky girl singing about masturbation, not the serious girl singing about a back alley abortion. Which is why now she focuses more on dance songs, and I guess it's working, since "Same 'Ol Story" and "Into the Nightlife" both were number one dance hits. :) Unfortunately, it's a little too late, and a little too commercial for fans to support. Phew! Sorry for the long response... Solicit my opinion and I tend to RAMBLE! :-/ CarpetCrawlermessage me 07:03, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- He he he he. You are unstoppable. That "came" part really killed me to death
. I agree with you regarding Cyndi. As for the articles, things are changing now. People are putting oldies forward, and hence notable artist's articles like those of Billy J, MJ, Madonna, Phill, are being moved to GA or FA. PS. Would you replace Vanilla Ice's face with yours?? I know you want to.

(Outdent) While we're at it, make it the True Blue era Madonna and you've got yourself a deal! :D And congratulations, Open Your Heart passed! Also, the True Blue song article's review is on hold. Hope you get to check both pages out! :) Great work! CarpetCrawlermessage me 01:43, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks Carpet. I just saw it. So happy!!!! My 4th GA. True Blue the reviewer has not yet started with the review, so I'll wait. I'm still working on True Blue. Its getting mammoth. But I know I have your to help.
. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:42, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Actually the reviewer has started the review, and both Frcm and I have commented on some of their concerns, as well as fixed some of them. The others however, I'm guessing are up to you. :) CarpetCrawlermessage me 04:58, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Re:Your edits (continuation)
Sorry I had to start this section on your new page. I couldn't edit the previous bunch of messages on the previous archive.
I will do so in finding more sources complying with WP:RS in order to expand Eh, Eh, LoveGame and Paparazzi.
One more thing, although this may not have anything to do with improving the quality of any article,
You have to see this in relation to Lady Gaga: http://www.2dayfm.com.au/shows/hot30/blog/lady-gaga-bashes-her-dancer/20090417-3m4y.html
Watch the video also, it's hilarious (and it was something that actually happened, no joke!) childfunkchat 10:22, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- Sorry somehow the video isn't connecting for me here. Can you describe it to me shortly? Can't wait. --Legolas (talk2me) 11:07, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- The video showcases Gaga performing Just Dance. It plays in fast motion a couple of times with the incident unnoticible. It then plays in slow motion and Gaga accidently swings her hand back holding her mic and it hits one of her female dancers in the jaw lol. It then shows the reaction of dancer (who holds her hips) just staring at Gaga, it's hilarious!
childfunkchat 11:13, 21 April 2009 (UTC)- Ohh I already saw that incident before hand. Thanks anyways. --Legolas (talk2me) 11:15, 21 April 2009 (UTC)

True Blue
I think the current subtitle is fine. Its general. Realist suggests not to use controversy. Its an evil term, according to him. --Efe (talk) 12:27, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
- I think its passable, although the article needs more polishing. I suggest you to avoid using terms that are vague in the context of music, like blistering and cute. They aren't descriptive and do not help the readers understand better the nature of the song. Hope that helps. --Efe (talk) 10:43, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

GA True Blue
I know. I'm floating in mid-air now!! "La Isla Bonita" is a true irony. But baby, True Blue the album's gonna be massive!!! Peer review's gonna be a nightmare. I started a new section. Start replying from there. We are using talkpages completely like IM. He he. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:51, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Good luck with "La Isla Bonita"! And yeah, the PR is always a nightmare, unfortunately. Not as nervewracking as a FAR or GAR, but it's certainly up there. Also, for more information on barnstars, and how to give 'em out, click here. CarpetCrawlermessage me 06:22, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks Carpet. I awarded Frcm with a special barnstar for teaching me how to edit articles to GA quality. Next we have ATTN coming for GA review. --Legolas (talk2me) 06:27, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- I'm guessing that someone has decided to review ATTN? Thank you for the barnstar. :) Cheered me up a little. CarpetCrawlermessage me 06:37, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Not yet, but its moving up pretty fast as the articles before it, most of them are on review. Saw you are reviewing the MJ album. Thats a good article. Realist sure doesnot keep any loop-holes. --Legolas (talk2me) 06:44, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Oh, OK, let's hope for the best then. :) And yeah, I thought I'd go ahead and review it, since it was on there for awhile. Realist does a damn good job. I actually heard he's going to work on getting HIStory to FA status, which would be incredible if he could get that done! CarpetCrawlermessage me 06:49, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Barnstar

The Half Barnstar | |
| I awarded you the Left Half of the Barnstar for the joint work in the Madonna articles, and specially for collaborating with me to bring "True Blue" to GA. Many thanks. Frcm1988 (talk) 05:56, 22 April 2009 (UTC) |
- Wow, Thanks Frcm. Love to work with you more. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:58, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Haha no problem, this is actually the first barnstar I gave and it fits perfectly with this situation. I believe we're going to work in a lot of future projects together, we have a lot of fixing to do to the Madonna songs. Frcm1988 (talk) 06:10, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Absolutely. This is just the start. As said before I'm just waiting for my "True Blue" album project to complete. After it goes for GA, I'll start collaborating with you and Carpet on Borderline, Lucky Star and Holiday. I would have awarded you another barnstar, but I don't know how. :( --Legolas (talk2me) 06:13, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Ok take your time, fortunately we don't have a deadline. And don't worry, I don't want you to think that I gave you the barnstar just to receive another one from you. Frcm1988 (talk) 06:26, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Well, thanks for the award and the compliments, I gave you the resources, but is your hard work what matters. Frcm1988 (talk) 06:36, 22 April 2009 (UTC)

Hi, Avinava!
Just doing as your page tells me to. ;) So, Avinava is your name? Cool! Mine is Josh. Do you want me to call you anything for short, like Avi? or 'Nava? :P CarpetCrawlermessage me 08:49, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- He he. My friends call me Avi, or bumps (my nickname), or Harry (I kinda look like Daniel Radcliffe), so pick your choice. --Legolas (talk2me) 08:59, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- LOL, OK, I won't ask where the nickname "Bumps" comes from, so I'll go with Avi. :) Call me whatever you like, even "Fred"! Only thing is it'll be awkward, because that Fred isn't my name, and all... CarpetCrawlermessage me 09:04, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Even I have absolutely no idea from where the name "Bumps" came. I'll call you Josh, well I still like the name Carpet a lot so I'll call that also. I'm just waiting for the GA review of "La Isla Bonita" to complete and in the meantime trying to promote Madonna's "Miles Away" to GA. I'm developing it in my second sandbox. --Legolas (talk2me) 09:10, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- He he, whatever you like. :) Like I said, even Fred! ;) And cool! :) Good luck with that. :) Once again if you need any help just ask! On Thursday I'm heading to my campus library and checking through the Newsday archives for "Papa Don't Preach" reaction. :) Right now I'm wondering why the hell it's 5 A.M and I'm STILL up, while addressing some of No Jacket Required's peer review concerns. CarpetCrawlermessage me 09:14, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Hey look!! La Isla Bonita Passed. 3 GA in a single day!! That has to be record!!! Sorry for late reply I was busy developing "Miles Away". --Legolas (talk2me) 12:14, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Awesome! Keep up the great work! :) Right now I'm working on getting an article a DYK? I've just finished the research, now I hope I can get it 5x expansion! Good work on "Miles Away" so far. :) CarpetCrawlermessage me 01:18, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

- Hehe, sorry about last night! I would have been on, but I passed out at like 10:30, and got up about an hour ago! Just got out of the shower, nice and relaxing. :) Unfortunately I have class in about an hour! :( But I did get another DYK? on the mainpage so that's nice. :) I'm just slightly annoyed because I was going to begin adding all of my research to my sandbox article last night. :( Oh well, C'est la vie, I had my first wonderful sleep in awhile! :) CarpetCrawlermessage me 15:00, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
- I took a look at the Miles Away article. Looks good! Should certainly pass a GAR. :) CarpetCrawlermessage me 04:32, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks and Ohh. You must be all charged up now to edit ferociously. And congrats on your DYK. He he, imagine if your chica saw you now. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:34, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- I'm currently looking for "Papa Don't Preach" reaction controversy. While researching, I've even found some stuff about Madonna's... "interesting" book. :D I don't know if you'd like the information or not, I could e-mail it all to you. :) CarpetCrawlermessage me 04:39, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- "Papa Don't Preach" I already added the info. And for the .... book, yes pleaseeeeeeee. Though I must say I have the images from the book. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:41, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- LOL, yeah the images aren't hard to find, neither are Madonna's interesting opinions on sex... ;) So then what else do you need on the album? And check your e-mail in a few minutes. :) CarpetCrawlermessage me 04:44, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- I badly need the chart performance to be elaborated a little. I think Frcm forgot. Oh well, whatever is there in the album, after a peer review it is GA quality i know. Maybe FA also. I will start working on Give It 2 Me now. Do you think I'm moving too fast? --Legolas (talk2me) 04:51, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

- I'm currently looking for "Papa Don't Preach" reaction controversy. While researching, I've even found some stuff about Madonna's... "interesting" book. :D I don't know if you'd like the information or not, I could e-mail it all to you. :) CarpetCrawlermessage me 04:39, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

(Outdent)NO WAY are you moving too fast! :) You are doing just fine, heck many users would be impressed with the incredible speed you are churning great quality articles out! :) Did you receive my e-mail? CarpetCrawlermessage me 04:56, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- Since I am at office, I'm not supposed to open mails. I won't take a chance now. I'll see it after reaching home. And thanks again, I thought maybe I needed to slow down. Well I don't think many people know me around here or the work I do. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:05, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- OK. :) Sounds good. And honestly, do whatever you feel is right. If you need a break, take it. :) Heck, I may take a small break after NJR's FAR. And yeah, that's going to be tough, since the music area of Wikipedia is one of the least touched areas. Which to me is ironic, since I'll bet it's one of the most used areas on this encyclopedia. Most of the FA's and GA's are things most people don't come onto Wiki to look for and read about, but it's not a reason for me to complain, really. Basically, sooner or later you'll get more people noticing you. :) One thing you could do is get involved in other aspects of Wikipedia. For example, I review Good Article nominations and review DYK's. So more people know me through that. I also participate in discussions in those areas. That also helps out. :) CarpetCrawlermessage me 05:15, 24 April 2009 (UTC)

I don't know if we should send the admin a message just yet, but I would keep my eye on that user. Also, childfunk as well, for giving the user the advice. Basically, childfunk is giving the user advice on evading a block, which in the first place is something I'm sure an adminstrator would want to look at.

She performs "Poker Face" on The Paul O'Grady Show. The first few minutes are a slowed piano and brilliant vocal performance, then she stops playing the piano and starts dancing to the normal pace of the song. If you can use youtube just search for "lady Gaga live on the Paul O Grady Show". — R2 04:46, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- I believe it is the similar performance she did on American Idol. Well I saw it on a gaga fansite. Thanks for the link anyways. Tell me if anything else needs to be done for "Miles Awy". --Legolas (talk2me) 05:18, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
Finnish Singles Chart and Mitä hittiä
Before you start calling my contributions rubbish, get your own informations straight. If you read the Mitä hittiä article, you will learn that it is not the Finnish singles chart. It is instead a combined airplay and singles chart, entirely separate from the Finnish singles chart (where LoveGame reached #12). YuckieDuck (talk) 12:04, 23 April 2009 (UTC)

Re: Block evasion
Open an SPI for a checkuser, please. Cloverfield Monsta looks pretty similar at first glance, but Child Funk seems a bit more well-spoken than Dance-pop's incarnations have been.
Carpet, I have no authority to ban anyone on my own; bans are placed by the community, and the standard way to receive one is the "no administrator is willing to unblock you" deal. That would apply to Dance-pop and any of his reincarnations, however a blocked user is not banned by default, even if the block is of indefinite length. Hersfold (t/a/c) 16:34, 24 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks Hersfold. But I think you didnot understand my concern. Child Funk is not Dance-pop. I'm 100% sure. My concern is that he may be unknowingly telling Cloverfield on how to evade a block. I'll file an SPI for Cloverfield. --Legolas (talk2me) 07:23, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
- Um..I am not sure if this converstaion is about me or not however I welcome an investagation, however it would have been more kind if you told me I was been investagated and why. Thanks.Cloverfield Monsta (talk) 00:55, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
Gaga Tours
HI, I put up the tours section, I did this because I used other featured articles as examples.

I have not cited Wikipedia as a source on a article nor have I ever changed an official cover, if I am wrong please let me know by providing evidence. I do not think I am a disrupt, and am sorry if I have been it was not intentional. I have done some edit sums. on other articles and will do on all edits (articles). But you also have not done some edit sums. but I see your point as it is okay to this occasinally (this is not a official rule of wikipedia only a gudieline so it is easy for other users). I beleve the part about the tour should go on the aricle (information above). I understand how you can be frutrated but do not like the way I am being treated Thankd.

"Miles Away"
As usual. "Miles Away" is ready to go. You've really done a great job. Only I can suggest is a little more polishing of the prose, especially on the technical side. Good luck. --Efe (talk) 11:17, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

RE: Hi!
I have no clue how to file an SPI, nor have I dealt with and known Dance-pop and their other incarnations as much as you, so I don't think I'd be the best person for that job... :-/. Do you know of anyone else who has bumped heads enough with that user so that they can properly file one? Also, on Perfect World... I'm not sure that I can find any more information on it. I was shocked to find as much info as I did actually! Then again, I guess some more prose would be beneficial to that article (especially a chart performances extension, since it mostly talks about the radio airplay and not its chart performance.) See you soon! :) CarpetCrawlermessage me 17:08, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

Another user and I are figuring out if an image is good to insert into the article, and soon I have the painstaking task of taking out some of the many quoteboxes of material that I have.

(Outdent)Doesnot matter to me if its the same user or not, I don't care. Well NJR is shaping really well towards FA. I think you can include live performance pics in the article for the tour, I'm sure free image will be available. Also, Phil in Playboy???? He he he he. not in your wildest dreams! Thats like Oprah getting the award for wearing the sexiest bikini. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:05, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for the NJR comments. :) And yeah, that's what the user and I are trying to figure out. We've found a picture of Phil performing in the tour, and we're trying to figure out how to get it into the article, and if we can do so. Also, I'm working on a Billy Joel article for DYK in my sandbox, but right now I'm mostly fiddling and toying around with it. Probably won't do much heavy work on it until later. And LOL, yeah, it's also like Madonna winning an award for most ugly person ever... When Alex Rodriguez got in trouble for that affair with Madonna recently, everyone called him everything from a cheapskate to a jerk. Me? I called him lucky. :D Madonna is still gorgeous today! CarpetCrawlermessage me 05:14, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

- I would like to begin work on "Lucky Star" after the NJR FAR. And after the NJR FAR I'll probably take a wikibreak of a few days... because I have a feeling the FAR will be the most exhausting thing of everything I've ever done on Wiki. :( It should be fun though, I love working with other people on articles! :) After we do "Lucky Star" and I do something with ThinkBlue, I might do something with Realist2. I am so looking forward to all of this. :) And RE: Madonna. NO FAIR! :( I have not seen anyone in concert yet.

Give It 2...Romania
There are some editions of Romanian Airplay Chart that aren't included on the chart's web page nor on the new one, and the only archives available are some saved by me from the Euro 200 chart. I've saved them on a blog - [1]. I didn't ad this one as a reference as blog source aren't considered "good"....but there you have it, it hit #1. Alecsdaniel (talk) 14:46, 28 April 2009 (UTC)
- I know it hit #1, but we need a permanent link that displays the source to be number 1. Also Euro 200 are deemed as WP:BADCHARTS hence that also cannot be used. so I guess we have to do without Romania if a permanent link is not found. --Legolas (talk2me) 03:47, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
date formatting in Hot 100 number-one singles pages
Hi. I noticed you reverted my changes on the page List of Hot 100 number-one singles of 2009 (U.S.) to keep writing date different from access date. I followed your suggestion and changed the dates on List of Hot 100 number-one singles of 2008 (U.S.), but could you do it on the rest of the "List of Hot 100 number-ones singles" pages? I prefer the consistency, but don't have the time to do the rest of them. I didn't realize so many pages were done wrong. --Wolfer68 (talk) 16:16, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

- Here you go. This website has the info regarding the song structure. I thoght it was not necessary for GAs thats why I didnot add it.

- Also go through the critical receptions again. Many times music structue are written by critics in the reviews itself. I faced the same problem with "Poker Face" but took oout carefully any info regarding the music from the reviews and here it is. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:30, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
- OK. I'll add the digital music info and chords, but you please check the reviews once more. There WILL be something regarding the song structure. I really thought that was unnecessary for GA. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:34, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

First I learn that a chica that had seemingly acted interested in me decided to go and find someone else, which is sort of a relief, but not a very good confidence booster. :-/ Then I learn that a certain chica I kinda like has been in the hospital, and kinda didn't bother to tell me, so that should tell you how much she's into me even on a friend level. :-/ Not a very good day.

- Also go through the critical receptions again. Many times music structue are written by critics in the reviews itself. I faced the same problem with "Poker Face" but took oout carefully any info regarding the music from the reviews and here it is. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:30, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thank you! :) Though I have to be honest... I have no clue what any of those truly mean, nor would I know how to add such information.

- Way too much chica trouble... not putting me in a good mood. :( I think you're right, I should just stay single! Not worth the BS you have to put up with in the end. And my eye power is 20/20. Though I'm pretty much blind as a bat without my glasses, no way am I getting rid of them! And LOL, how did you know I wear glasses? :) I'm nearsighted, how about you? CarpetCrawlermessage me 05:00, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
- Wow for the barnstar. Well you were the one who showed me your ... ahem.. shaved picture on facepic. He he. My eye power is -9.5/-9.75. I'm also near sighted but wear lenses most of hte time.

And Lady Gaga in that bubble wrap dress... *drools immensely* ;) CarpetCrawlermessage me 05:34, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
- Agreed. I haven't yet done the wikifying. These are the minor things I'm pending. AOL Sessions are a wide known sessions in the AOL house where artists come and perform acoustic versions of their songs. Thats how the acoustic version of Rihanna's "Umbrella" was released. Also Gaga in BUBBLE...drooool. If you want more, check the iamge and see the link from where I got it. you will see more than that. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:39, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

Miles Away or Just Dance
Which one do you want me to check next? — R2 08:39, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

RE: Just Dance sales - I remember being warned off about a year ago from assuming certifications will determine sales, because they do in fact measure shipments, not sales. So to state sales on the sole reason that certs indicate them, is not really fact. However, as I am writing this I am now wondering why that link's title is "Music recording sales certification", when in the first sentence it clearly states that it is "a system of certifying that a music recording has shipped a certain number of copies." Anyway, it's really up to you as I can't find any policies against it, WP seems to have a few holes in this area. k.i.a.c (talktome - contribs) 14:34, 29 April 2009 (UTC)

ATTN
Well, right now, the big problem is the lyrics. Unfortunately, Jules Shear has never publicly explained what the lyrics mean. You helped a ton with the structure section, but the lyric analysis is still pretty much unavailable. I told the user I'd go and research as much as I can, but today I looked and the well has pretty much run dry. I'll check a tiny bit more, but if I get no luck I'll tell the user such, and see where it goes from there. And nothing wrong with using this as if it were an IM... ;) CarpetCrawlermessage me 04:05, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Lady Gaga discography - Mediation case
Hello there. I am just willing to inform you that a mediator has finally come to our assistance regarding the Lady Gaga discography page.
The mediator is User:Xavexgoem of whom wishes to know if it is primarily a conduct or a content problem.
I assumed the issue was heavily related to content, therfore I chose to reply in telling him so.
I would suggest that you take a look ;) childfunkchat 06:12, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks Child but I'm really not interested in it anymore. Too much drama. I'm much busy developing articles nowadays to entertain such theatrics. You must have seen that I nominated "Just Dance" for GA. Yeah!!! --Legolas (talk2me) 06:30, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Good luck with promoting Just Dance to GA status!
Hopefully all of your hard efforts will soon pay off much like they did with "Poker Face"

- Phew! Finished off that monster eight pager. Now all I need to do is an essay that we will be assigned in two days, so I can procastinate it, and a short story due on the 18th. Right now I get a little bit of breathing time to relax and listen to music, as well as edit Wiki. LOL, it's 12:32 A.M. right now, hard to imagine there's such a heavy time difference. How are you? CarpetCrawlermessage me 04:31, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yeahh. Its really hard to imagine with all the IMs we continue. I'm fine, just working on "4 Minutes" in my sandbox2. Will push it for GA tonight. Which song do you plan to work on now? --Legolas (talk2me) 04:37, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
- Not really working on any songs right now, since I'm so busy with school. I'll be going with the flow. :) By the by, you might want to report the I.P. down there for personal attacks... CarpetCrawlermessage me 04:49, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
- sorry honey, was really busy the whole day to reply back. Well I'm online now, guarding Gaga articles and finishing my next assignment. Yes! Finally "4 Minutes" has been nominated for GA. Check it out!! Its huge!!! Hope all of them passes. Do you have any assignement left which I can take a look at while you are busy? I would love to help you out with anything.--Legolas (talk2me) 12:46, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

(Outdent) Don't worry, I've been incredibly busy myself! And LOL, that is a large article. :) Great work! Right now I'm not working on anything, but I just finished "Torture (The Jacksons song)" and nominated it for DYK? The nomination was accepted, as well as "Baby Grand", so I'm just waiting for the message that they appeared on the main page. :) Another user said that if I had a little bit more information, I could nominate "Torture" for GA! I have a ton of info about a lawsuit, but I don't know the end result of the lawsuit, so no go on that. If you have any interesting info to add, feel free to add it. :) Same for "Baby Grand"! So what's up? CarpetCrawlermessage me 03:24, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
- Hey great work on "Torture". But if you are aiming for GA, there's still work to do baby. A chart performance and music section is necessary as you must know that reviewers want those section, like in ATTN. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:55, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, I know. :) Right now my first priority is to figure out the end of that lawsuit. LOL, and maybe I could find a picture of the Michael dummy in the video! :P CarpetCrawlermessage me 05:06, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
- Regarding the lawsuit, whatever was the outcome (even if it was stalled) can go in the article if proper sources are there. Its not necessary that there has to be an outcome. Also an image will be nice. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed to see that all three Hard Candy songs get their GA tag in a single day. I just wanna see if I can make a hattrick like True Blue, OYH and La Isla Bonia. He he. I'm getting greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeedy. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:11, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah, the only problem is... it's just never mentioned ever again. I have a few articles from 1984, one from 1986, and the last from 1988, that said it was ongoing. Other than that, the whole thing completely dissappeared from the newspapers. The lawsuit was over a woman who claimed that she gave Jermaine Jackson the ideas that were used in the m music video. What makes it kinda funny was that Michael AND Jermaine never showed up to do the video; Jermaine refused. *shrug* And LOL, so I guess this means the True Blue album project is on hold for now? ;) CarpetCrawlermessage me 05:18, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
- OK. I understand, then addition of the lawsuit won't give it a complete feel. But why didnt Michael show up for the video? And no wayyyyyyyyyy, the mammoth True Blue album project is still going on and on and on. I think it will exceed your NJR article. :( --Legolas (talk2me) 05:23, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
- Due to scheduling conflicts, Michael couldn't show up. In which, a wax dummy of himself was put in his place for the video! LOL, why are you sad by the True Blue project being massive? You're lucky to have more information available! CarpetCrawlermessage me 05:26, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

(Outdent) Oy. Very good point. I had a handful of copyeditors on NJR, and start reading from right here, and scroll down. The amount of work Realist and I had to do was a complete nightmare. Which is half the reason why I still get cold feet about getting it a FA nom. It may get slaughtered there, and after all of the hard work I put in it, I may just as well pass out! :O CarpetCrawlermessage me 05:35, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

Re:LoveGame image
That's ok. I made that revision for aesthetical purposes only, however like you said, if we wish to nominate LoveGame for GA, we must stick to WP:MoS guidlines which I am now aware of thanks to you :)

If U Seek Amy
By banning my "range of IPs" (note: the dormitory router resets a lot, that's why I've so many IPs) you'll be banning the majority of broadband users in the city. I know I'm right in removing the If U Seek Amy content about "meant to start on filming the video on date X, but in fact started on day Y" - this info is useless bloat (regardless of consensus) and I don't see why any wikipedia editor would defend it as a solid piece of encyclopedia writing. You all need to get your head out of yer proverbial arses and actually try reading that line - it's horrible. It's of no value to anyone, save britney spears' future biographer of banal tidbits.--86.41.161.29 (talk) 03:48, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

On a different note, when I need to drive, I often take a power trip which I find quite enjoyable, and I think you look like a fan of power trips too. My edit to if u seek amy isn't vandalism, it improves the readability and doesn't remove any important information - on the contrary it cleans up what is obviously (to those with common sense anyway) bloat.--86.41.161.29 (talk) 04:26, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

RE:Warning
Hi, I was just reviewing mytalk and found you state that i did not make a comment about genitalia, which I did (correct me if I am wrong). And I am a new user at wikipeida, and I do not think giving a warning is very fair, could you please retract said comment/post/edit. Thanks, P.S. Site is now under construction.Cloverfield Monsta (talk) 07:36, 5 May 2009 (UTC) I think you have msisub=nderstood, what I am trying to say. The wikia section was diisscuable (could have gone in article). I was responding to a question about gentilia. Also with a warning evidence is nedded. Still it could have been disscused-sorry if that was misunderstood. So I will not take a warning, even if you do not retract the warning. I think I have justified myself, if I am incorrect pleases do tell me. Thanks. Cloverfield Monsta (talk) 04:53, 7 May 2009 (UTC)
Re:New Name
Yes, new name again. You must remember when my user was Youstinklmao. It was considered offensive, so I had no idea what to change it to so I came up with some random name off the top of my head and that is how I became Child Funk. I was never happy with that name, as there was not much thought put into it. For a while now I have been thinking of what new username I could put in practice. I chose this name, Bradcro because I believe it represents myself better. Child Funk had no personal meaning. • вяαdcяochat 08:40, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Hey there Legolas2186, unfortunately, the IP's disruption took place after I logged out last night, so it's now too late for me to do anything at the moment.

But it won't do any harm to not try, right? :) Exams are coming along fine.

Lady Gaga UK Sales Certifications
hello, why do you keep reverting the uk sales certifications from the lady gaga discography page, the sales are from valid sources so i cannot understand why you keep reverting them. any help would be appreciated, thanks Mister sparky (talk) 08:56, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- You are not adding sales, you are adding certifications which has nothing to do with sales. We don't get certifications based on sales. Record companies apply for it, then only they get it. --Legolas (talk2me) 08:59, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- In the UK they are sales certifications based on the amount a single or album has sold and either a silver, gold or platinum certificate is issued by the BPI http://www.bpi.co.uk/members-area/article/bpi-certified-awards.aspx Mister sparky (talk) 09:10, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- That is correct, but record companies have to apply for it to get it certified. Hence a single selling 300,000 copies can be referenced, but it doesnot mean that it has been certified by BPI untill and unless it appears on their website (which is not possible now). --Legolas (talk2me) 09:13, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

- okay well you could've just said that to begin with instead of just reverting it every time without properly saying why :) so as soon as the website section is back up and running properly i'll reinstate the certifications, until then i'll leave them off. hows about adding a sales section to the singles box then, like the album one, or do you think that would make it too crowded? Mister sparky (talk) 09:19, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- Actually a major discussion has already been done in the Discography wikiproject page regarding what to include in the singles section and it has been decided that certifications are ok but sales will elongate it further. Hence its better that sales are properly formatted in single pages only. --Legolas (talk2me) 09:24, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
- okay no probs. thanks :) Mister sparky (talk) 09:26, 8 May 2009 (UTC)

Lady Gaga in Spain
Sorry for the inconvenience. I write you regarding the Lady Gaga article. It seems there is a fight between us: adding and deleting Spain from the column of the discography. I've added it again, as you can see. I really can't see the point in deleting it again and again. I know that Spain unfortunately doesn't have a history link where you can see all the charted songs by the same artist and you have to see them week by week. However, in the link given you can see both "Just Dance" and "Poker Face"'s peaks. Hope this will serve. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 88.11.43.38 (talk) 17:59, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Re:LoveGame - Rove
Last year, sometime in September she made a guest appearence on Rove during those couple of days where she was promoting the release of The Fame in Australia. They interviewed her then she performed Just Dance live, but she was wearing a headset instead of a handheld microphone so she could dance at the same time. It wasn't a bad performance but she really over-danced and the headset really muffled her voice especially during the really long notes making it sound not all that great. Since she got acussed of lip syncing while singing the same song the day before by those stupid idiots that absolutely have no idea regarding music at Australian breakfest show, Sunrise, she was really trying to prove more than ever that she could sing. • вяαdcяochat 05:05, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- Ohh is it?? So bad. Those are really idiots! Did you ever see Gaga in person? I saw in The Fame Ball Tour. She's such a darling girl. --Legolas (talk2me) 05:11, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- I am freakinishly obsessed with her :O You are so lucky. I would die to see her in person! She is coming over here this month, in a couple of days infact, but she is only a support act for The Pussycat Dolls. I won't pay $200 AUD to see her perform 3 singles then watch the Pussycat Dolls who stink. PCD, I love watching them dance lol, but when they sing they ain't no good. If she did her own tour, i'd pay any amount of money! It's so unfair that she does whole tours in NA but not here. • вяαdcяochat 05:26, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- Actually I don't know the reason, but NA artists generally avoid Ocenia for touring, don't know why. Gaga's reason is justified. Since she is a new artist and tourism is a risky venture, Interscope is not spending that much money. I'm sure once her tours also become more and more popular she will extend her legs to the rest of the world. But I was surprised that established artists like Madonna and MJ didnot come there? Why? --Legolas (talk2me) 05:31, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- I to find it very odd. Personally, I think that Interscope would be foolish not to allow her to do a full Oceania tour. Gaga was one of the most succesfull new artists over here in 2008, being the only one to have two number 1 singles, Just Dance and Poker Face in a single year. Madonna and Britney Spears are actually set to tour Australia later this year according to source: http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,24977365-5006024,00.html Also, other big names like Beyonce and Flo Rida will arrive later this year. • вяαdcяochat 05:42, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- Oh well, thats for Interscope to decide. And let the Britney and Madge fans there go get crazy!! I saw Madonna's Sticky & Sweet in NYC. Its OUTTA THIS WORLD!! PErsonally I think they still consider touring to be a risky venture. Although Gaga is extremely hit in Australia, I'm thinking what is happening to LoveGame there? Has the CD single been released? Then why isnt the song peaking up as it should be. Eh, Eh almost flopped in Oceania. But LoveGame even went down in NZ!!! I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this weeks ARIA Chart! --Legolas (talk2me) 05:47, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- I am positive that LoveGame it will move up this week as yes, it has now been officially released as a CD single and digital download. I saw it instore last weekend at this good record store simply called "The Music Shop" in Westfield Bondi Junction Shopping Centre. I have a photo of it, I can send you a link if you like. The only way it was able to chart was from digital downloads from The Fame. Now that there is a physical and proper digital release, it is sure to move up. And yeah, Eh Eh kinda did flop. Probably because it wasn't all that up-tempo like Just Dance or Poker Face. Even I didn't like the song at first, but it eventually grew on me and now I love it. • вяαdcяochat 10:33, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

(Outdent)Actually Eh Eh is so friendly and sunny song that I used it as my mobile's caller tune. IF you call me you'll listen to the song.
So LoveGame I can guess will chart more. I hope it goes number one again. It went down from 22 to 27 in NZ. got knows whats wrong with that country. "Eh Eh" charted higher than the position in OZ there. Also any news about "Paparazzi" in your area? I mean is it gonna be released after "LoveGame"? I heard that "Starstruck" is supposed to be the last single from the album. --Legolas (talk2me) 10:39, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- As far as I know, there has been no word regarding Paparazzi here (I can't wait to see the video though. I reckon it will be really hot, lol!) Anyway, as of now radio stations are primarily focused on LoveGame. I too, like yourself have also suspected that Starstruck will eventually become a single. It features Flo Rida, so it is pretty obvious that she will release it. The song would be a massive throw-away if she chose not to. Imagine all the sucess in NA, since a large portion of mainstream is hip/hop-rap. Hopefully it will be released as it's one of my favourite tracks off the album. It's a little electro/urban with a pop chorus. Do you think auto-tune is used on Gaga's voice in the song because it really sounds like it is. By the way, what are you favourite tracks off the album? • вяαdcяochat 11:19, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- Definitely Just Dance, LoveGame, Paparazzi and Poker Face. Then Eh, Eh and at present I kinda like "Christmas Tree". Its such a funny song. "Paparazzi" video really can't wait. Pity that the LoveGame video got such a rating in Oz. Actually "Starstruck" if released, will break the records! Without any kind of promotion at all the song is still in the Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart for the 13th week and has been on the Hot Digital Songs chart for 27 weeks now. I believe in US the release will be LoveGame -> Paparazzi -> Starstruck -> Eh, Eh to round it up while in UK it will be Paparazzi -> LoveGame -> Eh, eh (more UK friendly) -> Starstruck. You really should have gone to the Fame Ball tour. The live performance of Paparazzi, Poker Face and LoveGame were jaw dropping!!! Since you are in Oz, as much time as you can get from school, request for "LoveGame" in your radio!! Tell your friends also (if they are Gagacrazy like us :)). I really want the song to top the charts in Canada and Oz again. It has the ability to top worldwide like "Poker Face". Did you know that "Poker Face" has even crossed Madonna's mammoth hit single "Hung Up" in termas of the total number of weeks at number one? Marvellous!! --Legolas (talk2me) 11:28, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- It is a shame that LoveGame got that rating over here. But good news is that it was only one channel, Network Ten (suprise, suprise). All the other channels air it which is great and also, as of right now it is the number 1 most downloaded video on the Australian iTunes Store. I've bought it aswel. Although I love all the singles, some of my very favourite tracks off the album are ones that actually haven't been released such as Starstruck, The Fame, Brown Eyes (really shows her theatrical side), Paper Gangsta and Beautiful, Dirty, Rich. I guess I could get some support. One of my good friends loves Gaga as much as I do. Gaga kinda came out of no where. This time last year, no one evem knew she existed. Fast forward a year, now she is like massive. Thanks for letting me know that it actually beat Hung Up. I remember that song from a few years back. I think it hit number 1 over here. For some reason I keep thinking of a pink leotard. Isn't that what Madonna was wearing in the music video? • вяαdcяochat 11:45, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

- As far as I know, there has been no word regarding Paparazzi here (I can't wait to see the video though. I reckon it will be really hot, lol!)

Spanish charts
I don't understand why you keep removing the Spanish chart references. Once the week is known, the PDF link stays stable and permanent.—Kww(talk) 12:50, 9 May 2009 (UTC)
- The previous link provided by the IP was broken and couldnot be accessed. Only after the IP provided a working link, I stopped reverting it. You can check my talk page for further details. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:39, 11 May 2009 (UTC)

Lady Gaga
You keep saying that you removed unsourced claims in the articles, but you don't even bother to look if the information is correct, apparently if you wasn't the one that put it is incorrect or unreliable. The Fame have been certified platinum now by the RIAA, and the single Poker Face is gold in Austria, they were sourced with RELIABLE references (RIAA and IFPI), stop been so posessive with this articles. 190.43.94.116 (talk) 04:23, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- Well apparently the links you provided didnot work, I corrected them now. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:35, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- I didn't add them, and they do work they're the same you're using, you can check them in the article's history. "RIAA – Gold & Platinum". RIAA. May 7, 2009. Retrieved 2009-05-10. and the one for austria: [2] This is not the first time you do this, weeks ago when some user that wasn't you updated the peak position of one of her songs you reverted saying that it was unsourced, even when the chart was alredy published, that is why you should verify the sources instead of automatically revert assuming that everything is vandalism or as you call it "fancruft". 190.43.94.116 (talk) 04:49, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- Yes I do revert unsourced and poorly sourced claims. Even if the chart is published and some user is using the same link to update the chart history it doesnot work, because the links used are unique links and they donot corresspond to it. The links you are providing above won't lead to an unique certification, it will lead to both Gold and Platinum and in IFPI's case, nothing at all. So if you need to add certification, cite properly, otherwise it will be reverted. There's no point in blaming me, cause the don't care for bad additions and unsourced claims. --Legolas (talk2me) 04:53, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
- You are proving my point, you don't even see the links, the reference from the RIAA that was in the article before you erased it was a unique link, only the album The Fame appears in it and its gold and platinum certification, and the Austrian is the same you are putting is not unique it dosen't link directly to her certifications. At least you can put Correcting or Fixing references in the summary, not fancruft or reverting unsourced claims as you are doing right now, because they are not unreferenced or original research, or fancruft. 190.43.94.116 (talk) 05:06, 11 May 2009 (UTC)
