"Get It Right" review

Hi, thank you for taking the time to review "Get It Right"! I'm sorry you ended up having to fail it. I'd noticed your review on my watchlist, but as I hadn't contributed to the page in any significant way, I didn't want to dive in over the nominator/primary contributor. From a glance at her contribs, it looks as though Candyo32 has been away from editing for a few days, so I've gone ahead and fixed all the problems your review flagged up, if you'd be kind enough to take another look at it? Thank you very much! Frickative 21:29, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

  • I have read the article and the problems have all been corrected, if you nominate it for a renominate the article for GA I will gladly carefully re-review it and it is looking as if it will pass as it is. Thanks for the contributions --FeuDeJoie (talk) 16:00, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Seems like you are a Madonna fan. Why haven't I seen you joining the above project for her Madgesty? :P — Legolas (talk2me) 18:01, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Yeah I'm a huge Madonna fan. I have never got around to looking into the Madonna Wikiproject really, I kept meaning to join so I will, Thanks for reminding me :) --FeuDeJoie (talk) 18:24, 16 June 2011 (UTC)
Hey nice that you are developing American Life. If you need any help just call me. I might do wonders. :) — Legolas (talk2me) 14:50, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
No problem, I have everything present. Once you are done with whatever you want to add, just let me know, I'll copy it in my sandbox and add the rest. I'm saying this because I don't wanna (edit conflict) with you while we both develop and add information. So what are your favorite Madge albums? — Legolas (talk2me) 15:59, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
Will do! Confessions is the best this decade; I think, but still a fan of the classic Like a Virgin but I think that American Life is one of her best! What's yours? --FeuDeJoie (talk) 16:10, 18 June 2011 (UTC)
Mine is Like a Prayer, True Blue and of course Ray of Light. I have been to five of Madonna's tours, except the first three, I was too small, lol. We have many articles developed as GA in the Madonna wikiproject, you can take cues regarding American Life from Madonna album GAs like The first album, Confessions on a Dance Floor, Hard Candy, and of course the other three I mentioned. Good luck and don't forget to ask me for any help you need. And also let me know once you are done with the review of The Remix. — Legolas (talk2me) 16:15, 18 June 2011 (UTC)

The review and instructions are up now. Good luck!--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 19:13, 16 June 2011 (UTC)

Re: Scream (Kelis song)

Thank you for doing the GA. unfortunately due to unforeseen circumstances, I've decided to begin semi-retirement from wikipedia and will be unable to complete the changes required. Apoligies. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 22:35, 18 June 2011 (UTC)

Dear Spiceitup, thanks a dime for the wonderful review. However, while placing the GA template in the article talk page there are few other things you need to take care of, which you can see with this edit that I made. Note this in your future promotions. Take care, — Legolas (talk2me) 16:32, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

Ah Yep, I forgot :L, Thanks, --FeuDeJoie (talk) 16:52, 20 June 2011 (UTC)

REview is up. Let me know of any questions. — Legolas (talk2me) 10:25, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

Is everything fine with you since you haven't edited that much. Tell me whether you will be able to do anything with the review. — Legolas (talk2me) 10:54, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
Sorry for taking so long to get back to you, I have a week full of exams so I dont think I will manage to edit it but after I have finished I will definitely start editing in response to your review. Again apologies, Thanks --FeuDeJoie (talk) 13:19, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
No problem Joie. I cna hold it up for another week or two. Good luck with your exams. — Legolas (talk2me) 16:35, 30 June 2011 (UTC)

Re:Beat of My Drum

No problem- as long as you're working on it, you've got as long as you need. It's worth getting it right- that's what GAC is about. Feel free to leave notes on the review page if you need clarifications- it can also be useful to reply when you've dealt with something so that you can keep track. J Milburn (talk) 23:22, 16 August 2011 (UTC)

Don't give up so soon, IMHO

I'm not impressed with any of the arguments presented to keep Lucky Day (Nicola Roberts song). If you really feel like withdrawing the nomination there's zero wrong with that assessment. There's also no reason why you couldn't discuss the quality of the arguments for keeping, which pretty much come out of Wikipedia:Arguments to avoid in deletion discussions. Just letting you know, it's a contact sport. You're allowed to disagree with a majority against you if you are acting in good faith. Good luck, and if you need help, don't be shy. BusterD (talk) 19:29, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

I've taken the liberty of disputing almost every argument presented. Take a look to see one way of providing harsh feedback to poor arguments. It's certainly OK to stick your elbows out to make some space. BusterD (talk) 20:42, 21 August 2011 (UTC)

Hello

Hello, I see you are a member of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Britney Spears and I am inviting you to join a discussion at Talk:Till the World Ends#Tracklistings. about the track listing format on the Britney articles. I would appreciate some opinions. Thanks Nicholas (talk) 00:58, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

How about just showing the CD single cover then? That's what, for example, the "Womanizer" cover uses. — Status {talkcontribs  03:35, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Why not? :) Not sure how much of a help I could be, as school is coming back in tomorrow, but I'll be sure to help you out. :) Glad to see "You Lost Me" finally done. I was planning on doing it months ago, but just gave up after Bionic failed GA twice. — Status {talkcontribs  14:52, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Xtina

Hi Sam! I read that you are planning to work on "Genie in a Bottle". Well, I am planning to do it myself soon and I thought maybe we can share the project? I'd love to work with you on "GIAB" :) Novice7 (talk) 14:06, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

I'd love to help with other Christina articles! Now for GIAB: I'll start today by collecting sources for Critical, Chart, Composition sections. Also, we need a "Legacy" section, don't you think? We can finish the article bit by bit (I'll start adding information as soon as I complete :Toni Braxton discography, it's almost complete) PS: Can you forward the GIAB scan to me? My mail id is <removed> Thanks, Novice7 (talk) 04:15, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
Leave the critical reception to me :) I've already collected about 10 reviews lol. The next difficult section would be Live performances. I saw the addition! Bravo! Amazing. I can't wait to start my work on GIAB! It's one of my favorite songs :D Novice7 (talk) 09:50, 6 September 2011 (UTC)

I use Google's News Archive Search and Highbeam.com (I don't buy the articles, just preview them). They have lots of reviews. Novice7 (talk) 03:07, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

Just wanted to let you know that I haven't abandoned the project (GIAB) lol; just busy these days. I will get to it soon :) Novice7 (talk) 04:35, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, I saw it! (I'm a great stalker, you know) Amazing! I've started writing down the information on a paper and it should be completed soon. Novice7 (talk) 11:59, 12 September 2011 (UTC)

Book scans

Hi, yes I have the book, give me your email and I will send them as soon as I can, or I can send them to Novice, I believe I have his email. Regards. Frcm1988 (talk) 21:56, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

PS: By the way, your original username have anything to do with the best girl group of all time!!!? lol :D

Ok I have it, you can erase it now, I will send them in a couple of minutes. And yes finally I found another user with the same obssession :D Perhaps we can work on a Spice-related article some time in the future. Regards. Frcm1988 (talk) 22:21, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
I also have some books and all of the autobiographies (that's how I made 8 of their songs GA). I don't have much memorabilia but I used to collect cds and cassettes, I went completely crazy for a couple of years, I believe I have over 400 items with versions from several countries and promotional cds. Now Im broke, so I can keep with me obsession. Perhaps in a couple of years I will complete my collection, lol. Frcm1988 (talk) 22:53, 5 September 2011 (UTC)
Great if you need anything else let me know. I still need the Ginger cd, and I think I lost my Baby one, I haven't seen it for a while :( So if you ever plan to give away your "Viva Forever" collection, you know where to find me :D Frcm1988 (talk) 23:09, 5 September 2011 (UTC)

Hi, Jivesh Here

Hi. I am Jivesh. I do not know you but most of my friends know you. So i thought why not befriend you as well. I see you are a great fan of Xtina. I love "Not Myself Tonight". What other artist do you like? ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 09:27, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

Feels good to know that you love Beyonce so much. Well, i a min love with 4 but that's not something extraordinary because i am literally in love with everything Beyonce does. She is equivalent to my breaths and heartbeats for me. YES!!! I am a big stan. You must have heard about Beyhive? That's a group of fierce supported of King B. Lol. 4 is a masterpiece. Adele's 21, in my opinion, is overrated. That album has no variation although i will not hide that i love it immensely. 4 is definitely a critical success. But Beyonce is not promoting it enough to make a commercial hit out of it. I am very sad she is not promoting the album because of this. She has had no hit single and yet, she sold 1.6 million in only 9 weeks. It is quite good till now. In fact, very good. Beyonce says she no longer cares for commercial success. I hope she was joking. If no, she should sit in her home and retire. I wish Beyonce re-becomes the promo queen. I missed those days she got Ellen (presenter of a US talk-show) dancing like this. Coming to the artist i like


  1. Beyonce
  2. Toni Braxton, Keri Hilson
  3. Whitney Houston, Celine Dion, Christina Aguilera
  4. Kelly Rowland, Katy Perry, Madonna
  5. Rihanna, Mariah Carey, Britney Spears, Nicole Scherzinger

If you see my list here, i stick to mainly Beyonce's articles here for a personal reason. Maybe one day, i will tell you. Anyway, tell me more about your favorites? And which articles do you edit here? I mean which artist(s)? I hope you did not find me boring with my essay. ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 16:36, 20 September 2011 (UTC)

By the way, you can join Beyonce's Wiki-project if you want? And do you know French? Your user name implies fire of happiness if translated literally, right? ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 16:39, 20 September 2011 (UTC)
I also loved your essay. Now i am sure we will be very good friends. You know why? People who leave me such long messages (when i left them one before) always become one o f my best Wiki-friends. I am serious. And yes, we have a lot in common. 4 is also my favorite album. My favorite on it is "I Miss You". There is not a single song on it that i dislike. And your favorite? And yes, i heard that BTINH was huge on radios in the UK. ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 12:56, 21 September 2011 (UTC)

Slowly but surely, this is shaping very nicely. It feels good to know that now, we have some to better Xtina articles. ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 06:16, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
anything to do with charts??? Are you sure? Lol. Well, i feel very lazy when it comes to take to another artist's article (other than Beyonce) to GA or FA. I think it is best we work on songs we like. Anyway, from where are you? ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 06:21, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

I just read your message again and there is something i could not really understand. In the books you are talking about, what type of information is there about the song? Things like composition, development... ? ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 06:25, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Genie in a Bottle

Hi Sam, I now you are working on Xtina songs, I don't know which of them particularly, but searching for info for other songs I found info on "Genie in a Bottle", this Allmusic page, most of it is about the writing [1], and this massive article of Sound on Sound, which is totally reliable, and apparently a very important publication (I asked about it here a year ago). The article is very technical, and can be a total pain to condense it, I helped Legolas with the Recording and production section of "Like a Virgin", and he also did something similar on "4 Minutes". There is a lot of info on the recording, production, mixing, and the also mention a lot of the equipment they used to record the song, the bass sound, the drums, microphones, etc.[2] Hope this is usefull for you, let me know if you need any help. Regards. Frcm1988 (talk) 19:23, 21 September 2011 (UTC)

Looking for a Duran Duran song, but I already used it before with "Like a Virgin", then I remember that you were working on Xtina, so I looked up and found the article. But that was the easy part, the information can be very hard to understand and even worse to put in the article. But Im sure you will find it easier than me, since English is not my first language. Frcm1988 (talk) 19:50, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
(talk page stalker) AAH Christopher! I had kept the Sound on Sound link as a surprise for Sam! Novice7 (talk) 03:59, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Oh sorry, I had no idea :( Altough I did find it weird that you didn't give him the link considering that you already used the page before with "Irresistible". From now on I will kept all the pages I find and new books I buy for myself :D Frcm1988 (talk) 04:25, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Ahaha guys! Ill leave the Sound on Sound link to Novice then, im guessing he can make more sense of it than me anyhow. But really thanks so much! --FeuDeJoie (talk) 06:03, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Naah don't worry Chris (and no! LOL). I have started reading the article (it's long!) and writing down the info. It's very technical at some places :) Novice7 (talk) 07:35, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Haha, well im liking the Spirit of Inspiration quote, maybe we could put it in a quote box, the article is pretty lengthly but it has a LOT of useful info I guess... --FeuDeJoie (talk) 07:44, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Just take your time, when you finish the article take it to the Guild of Copyeditors and/or to a Peer Review, some information that "us fans" find important or relevant, is not really that important or is more appropiate for a fanpage, but our eyes just don't see it :D By the way I saw your work on "Think About It", great to see someone else working on Spice-related articles. Not so long ago we (Novice, Legolas and myself) try to find some info to develop the singles of Northern Star, but the information on the writing, recording, production is so scarse that we didn't manage to complete anything. I wish Mel C or Emma release an autobiography, I mean I don't know why Geri have TWO!!! does she really have a lot to say? Sometimes find her too dramatic and desperate for attention ¬¬

Oh and Novice there is actually a Sound on Sound article about "What Took you so Long?", [3] (perhaps you already knew and was another surprise, lol) it has a lot of great info, on the writing and recording; the problem I think will be the info for the music video, and I don't know if there is enough critical reception about the song. Frcm1988 (talk) 08:16, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
I've seen that too :P Yeah, it can be considered a "surprise" :D The problem is music video and critical reception. Even for "Never Be the Same Again", there's nothing related to song's BG, Critical reception and music video. I've collected a few and I will be adding that info soon. Both Mel C and Emma should release an autobiography or even an authorised biography will do :( Novice7 (talk) 09:34, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
Northern Star was such an incredible album, its such a shame that there really is no bios or autobiographies isnt it? But yeah Im really loving "Think About It", the album The Sea is probably her best since her debut!--FeuDeJoie (talk) 18:52, 22 September 2011 (UTC)
"Northern Star" is the best song by solo Spice Girls members. Ya'll mad? Sad? Upset? Deal with it! — Legolas (talk2me) 11:14, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
I agree! At first, I didn't like the song. But, after listening to it frequently, I love it! Great melody. Novice7 (talk) 12:59, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
BLASPHEMY!!!! the best solo-Spice song is "Maybe" by far, "Northern Star" is not even the best song in the CD single, the b-side is better :D Frcm1988 (talk) 14:01, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
"Go!" is my favorite of hers, she never released it! Bit of a shame! But its on the great Northern Star album --FeuDeJoie (talk) 11:59, 26 September 2011 (UTC)

Something to Remember

Hello Spiceitup! I'd love to collaborate with you, but I'm not really active on Wiki nowadays. But I can help to expand the commercial section further :) Bluesatellite (talk) 08:44, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

If Blue is not able to do it, I will end up eventually doing it anyways, lol. Ya know, I'm moving along her discography chronologically. — Legolas (talk2me) 11:07, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
Aw tah guys, yeah I kinda suck at the whole chart, commercial thing. So I kind of shy away from it as best I can, im in no rush, I just thought with a little cleanup it could make GA?--FeuDeJoie (talk) 19:19, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

Nicola

Hey :) I'm a big stalker :P I was looking through your contribs and saw your comment on that user's page. So, I went ahead and nommed it for deletion :) As for Yo-Yo, you can redirect it to the album article. I don't think we can delete it. Is it a single? Anyway, if it is released as a single, the article would be Yo-Yo (Nicola Roberts song). No need to worry :) Novice7 (talk) 16:59, 10 October 2011 (UTC)

I've redirected it now. Nope, I haven't listened to it, yet, But, since you asked, I will :) Novice7 (talk) 03:56, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Hiya

I'd love to help ya out. Don't worry about "GIAB", I'm on it. I just have to complete one or two articles and I'll start working on "GIAB". I'll copy-edit the articles too :) Novice7 (talk) 04:49, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Mate, I've started copy-editing (first imma do "Keeps Gettin' Better". I must say I make a lot of mistakes lol) Novice7 (talk) 12:15, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Lol, that was a fast reply. You online now? Novice7 (talk) 12:19, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Ooh, okay. I stay hidden sometimes too. You know, without editing any articles, just looking through stuff. Novice7 (talk) 12:23, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
There's no tool to put us under hidden list lol. Just don't edit, that's the only way. Or, you can use the links from WP:STATUS to show that you're hidden too :) Novice7 (talk) 12:27, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
Yeah, it's one of my favourite albums too. I also like Reason and The Sea :) Beautiful Intentions is a bit too "pop rock" for me. I haven't heard a lot of This Time :| Novice7 (talk) 12:33, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
"Think About It" sounds like a P!nk song. It's very basic, nothing new imo. "Weak" is amazing. Also, "Let There Be Love" has a Japanese feel to it, especially the keyboards/synths. Novice7 (talk) 12:37, 27 October 2011 (UTC)

Spice-info

Hi Sam, how are you? By any chance you have any of the group's official magazines? I am looking for information about the writing or recording of "Viva Forever" since I have everything but that. I know that they talked about an earlier version of the song called "Obrigado" written mainly by Geri. And something that it mixed Spanish and Portuguese, LOL. If you have anything or know where to find it please let me know. Regards. Frcm1988 (talk) 01:25, 29 October 2011 (UTC)

Don't worry, take your time Im not in a hurry. So what are you doing now? Did you finish any Xtina songs? Frcm1988 (talk) 21:22, 29 October 2011 (UTC)
Well that's dissapointing :( I know I read it somewhere, or probably they said it in an interview, I will keep looking. Thanks anyway. I also have the autobiographies, she only talks about "Too Much" and "Stop", well and Mel B and Victoria don't mention anything at all about the Spiceworld songs ¬¬ For reviews try using Google News Archive, most of them are pay-per-view but you can see small snippets that usually mentions something about the song, here is an example: [4] Regards.

I will tackle GIAB after this :) Novice7 (talk) 04:36, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
Thank you so much Sam! Would you be able to add today? Also, I'd love your help with the Artwork section too :) Novice7 (talk) 06:21, 2 November 2011 (UTC)
Just wanted to remind you lol. I hope to complete the article by next week. Novice7 (talk) 03:30, 3 November 2011 (UTC)
Sure mate, it's okay. You know my mail :) Hope your life's going good :D Novice7 (talk) 03:34, 4 November 2011 (UTC)

Hey, I hope you're not feeling that I've forgotten about your projects. It's just that I'm busy in real life. I'll complete GIAB asap. Btw, you forgot about the Rooksby =D Novice7 (talk) 14:38, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

Hey

Sammyboy, have you heard "Masterpiece"? It's just ah-mazing! By the way, the Like a Prayer articles are almost over, I will soon move to I'm Breathless. Not exactly my kinda era from Madonna, but oh well. If I remember correctly you wanted me to notify you when I start work on "Vogue", was it? — Legolas (talk2me) 07:01, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the barnstar. I do believe Madonna has the ability to turn up something amazing for this album. Just keeping my hopes low so that if it is indeed bad, I won't be disappointed. — Legolas (talk2me) 16:01, 10 December 2011 (UTC)

I'd be willing to review this one again- you made a lot of progress with it in the last review, and it honestly wasn't that far. Fancy it, or would you rather wait for another reviewer? (Message me on my talk page!) J Milburn (talk) 22:54, 12 December 2011 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Beat of My Drum‎

The article Beat of My Drum‎ you nominated as a good article has failed ; see Talk:Beat of My Drum‎ for reasons why the nomination failed. If or when these points have been taken care of, you may apply for a new nomination of the article. Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 01:12, 27 December 2011 (UTC)

Re: Lucky Day

WOW Thank you so much! I discovered Nicola recently, I had to download the album ilegally because her album isn't sold here in Brazil... :( By the way, are you feeling better? Happy holidays! :) - Saulo Talk to Me 01:33, 28 December 2011 (UTC)

Oh, that's great to know! And yeah, I have plans to buy Cinderella's Eyes through Amazon next year... I also love Christina, I hope her new single is really good! Is it true that it was produced by Max Martin? - Saulo Talk to Me 18:22, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
I know! My friend gifted me Bionic last year, because I was really curious and wanted to buy it, but I didn't had the money. The only tracks that I like is Lift Me Up, You Lost Me, I Am, Little Dreamer and Monday Morning. To me, Back to Basics is her best album, because it is the one that shows how versatile her voice is. - Saulo Talk to Me 02:05, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Keep it together

Can you find me some critical info for it? :( — Legolas (talk2me) 16:54, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

I've left some comments. J Milburn (talk) 01:02, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

The guild of copyeditors can be very slow, and it's sometimes not as good as it could be, but it can work very well. I will take a look through the article when I get a chance- it didn't have far to go last time, and, honestly, could stand a chance at FAC if the prose is tightened up a bit. We'll get it to GA, at least, I promise! J Milburn (talk) 21:48, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
I've taken a few pop-ish singers and albums (I have an album article nominated right now) to featured status. I'll have a think when I read through it. J Milburn (talk) 22:02, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
Faryl- see Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Faryl/archive1. No reviews yet- if you have any thoughts, they'd be appreciated! J Milburn (talk) 22:17, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Some stuff I think needs fixing

Ok, I'm doing what I can to help the prose, but there are a few issues.

  • Are there multiple bridges in the song, or just one?
  • The composition section still needs some cleanup. Right now, it doesn't say very much, but does repeat itself significantly. Could it perhaps be expanded? (I've not touched it at this time.)
  • I really can't see the value of the pic of her with Girls Aloud
  • The lead says von Doll helped write the song; the infobox also mentions Pentz. Neither of these are mentioned in the "writing and release" section.
  • "mixed with Robyn and Yelle" Who or what is "Yelle"?
  • In the caption to the music video shot, you write "wearing a 1980s inspired outfit"- is this not the 1970s one mentioned in the prose?

If you can deal with these bits, I'll give it another look through, and then we can look to sending it back to GAC. J Milburn (talk) 23:32, 16 January 2012 (UTC)

Thanks so much for this, I've changed the bridges to bridge, removed the Girls Aloud pic, all I could find of Von Doll and Pentz was what was in the album booklet, added a link to Yelle and changed the 80's to 70's. The only thing is the composition section is pretty difficult, I spent ages looking for more info to use but it seems to have a lack across the web. Thanks again -FeuDeJoie (talk) 23:46, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
No problem, and thanks for the star! If there's not much available about the composition, then I think the best thing to do would be to merge the section elsewhere. I'll see what I can do with it in the coming days. Are Von Doll and Pentz mentioned with regards to this song in particular, or to the album as a whole? J Milburn (talk) 00:22, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
They are listed on the album credits at the end also, but they are mentioned on the individual songs credits too. -FeuDeJoie (talk) 00:34, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
I've restructured the article, but I think it still needs a little bit of copyediting before it's ready for GAN again. I think I was over-optimistic with regards to FAC- that would still be a long way off, but would be possible with a lot of work. GA status, however, is not too far away, I think. J Milburn (talk) 15:56, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
Thank-you so much! It looks in great shape. Cheers -FeuDeJoie (talk) 18:06, 21 January 2012 (UTC)

Hello, Spiceitup08. I'll be happy to take on the review of "Keeps Gettin' Better". It's a pretty catchy song by her, so I decided 'why not?'. Expect to see comments very soon! Thanks. —WP:PENGUIN · [ TALK ] 22:17, 19 February 2012 (UTC)

Spiceitup08, I left comments quite a while ago. It's been over a week and you've edited since then. I'm just notifying, not a warning at all.

That's no problem, I enjoyed working on the article. As far as pop music goes, I always quite liked Girls Aloud, but I don't think Nicola's doing as well as she deserves! You're certainly doing good work, and I look forward to seeing more of your articles at GAC. J Milburn (talk) 15:31, 3 September 2013 (UTC)
