I guess the remix featuring Chris Brown shuold have an own article because this article with the interlude and the full length song is very confusing. And the section of the remix is large enough for an own page. Ilikeriri ( talk) 18:04, 3 March 2012 (UTC)
Calvin there was nothing wrong with that edit, please don't be annoying again. The interlude charted on the digital songs chart, I know what I'm talking about and it doesn't appear you do. A release of the remix hasn't been released so how can it chart on digital songs without a digital download? I stated that in my edit which you called over explaining. Also I don't know why you reverted my edit removing Radio Songs from the chart table because it shouldn't be included.
Can you please go back to what you were because you are just always THERE to revert every one of my edits and you aren't giving me a fair chance. Please. PhoenixJHudson ( talk) 18:30, 6 March 2012 (UTC)
Hi Calvin, you reverted my edit, which I thought corrected your bad grammar edits you made a few weeks ago. You reverted it to the bad grammar sentence: The following week, it ascended to number 17.[46]In its third week on the chart, the song ascended number seven. I changed it to ascended to number seven. The edit you made does not make sense. Also I removed the use of the repeated word ascended. To be honest, come on there was nothing wrong with my edit. Please revert back because you are making yourself look silly reverting good grammar edits. PhoenixJHudson ( talk) 10:18, 8 April 2012 (UTC)

I've reverted the statement about the song being about "Rihanna's desire" - all the sources say is that the song is about the general desire. Saying it is about "Rihanna's desire" is a large leap and a WP:BLP issue if not strongly sourced. The sources later in the article don't say that either. Please, if someone feels necessary to re-instate it, provide a citation in the article and quote the relevant passage here. Toddst1 ( talk) 23:31, 11 June 2012 (UTC)
Birthday Cake remix is not a single because its not on itunes... i think its a promotional single... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.104.57.143 ( talk) 04:48, 9 October 2012 (UTC)

In case it's not clear: adding pictures to highlight speculations isn't tolerated on Wikipedia -- Loginnigol ( talk) 14:32, 8 May 2013 (UTC)
Stop reporting each other for things and talk. It's a content dispute. It's an edit war. It's clearly unaccepable behaviour on both your parts, and if it continues I will block both of you. Start a discussion with other editors, attempt to persuade them to your point of view, and come to a consensus about it.— Kww( talk) 01:35, 9 May 2013 (UTC)
-- Loginnigol ( talk) would like the picture to be removed from the Remix featuring Chris Brown Background section, as he is citing it as "photo spam" and not relevant to the topic. Please come to a WP:CONSENSUS and explain why you have chose either as your decision.
It should be noted that it went platinum and is the first interlude ever to go platinum via billboard. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.125.248.23 ( talk) 03:23, 25 May 2013 (UTC)
