I put a few sentences about this issue which has been around for the past four months now and it was reversed by another user who claimed I was attacking Lady Gaga:

This article could use a mention of how "Gaga" is pronounced. Believe it or not, a lot of people, like me, only encounter the name in the print media. I've heard it pronounced at newsstands "Gah-gah" and "Gah-gay." Since it's a made-up name and her thing is weirdness, who knows (you I hope)? 5Q5 ( talk) 15:09, 25 July 2011 (UTC)

Also, I don't see why this sentence is in here - "Early in her career she had difficulty getting radio airplay" - under the LGBT advocasy section. Is this subliminal vandalism?

Lady Gaga's YouTube videos have reached over 1 billion total views. The singer was the first to reach the milestone, but Justin Bieber is gaining on her with over 962,726,797 total video views.

The page says that she has sold 13 million ALBUM copies, when The Fame has already sold 12, The Fame Monster is near 6 million copies sold and Born This Way has already sold 4.3 million copies. Plus, the link to the sources of that reference is dated, because it says 8/12/10 so it was from August 12th from LAST YEAR. I would like to clear that, as far as the album sales (total) the singles are too because they come frome the same source.

hey, i'm from croatia and i was interested if you'd like to put croatian peaks for Gaga's singles in discography. For Born This Way, Judas and The Edge Of Glory and You And I I do have source, but for previous singles don't.
BUT THE PROBLEM IS THAT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO INSERT SOURCE. THE PAGE WHERE YOU CAN FIND A SOURCE (IF YOU'RE INTERESTED) google is: HRT Airplay Radio Chart Top 40. There you can see singles list on right side, and if you click on:
14. ožujka (march 14.) you'll see that Born This Way is number one and so you must find for Judas and other singles.

OK I'm sure this is the 100th time someone says this, but this picture NEEDS to be changed! In no way does it represent Gaga in this present era nor does it show her features clearly due to over-editing (seriously, it rather looks like a painting of the actual Gaga). It never reflected her outré style. So please whoever put this up and thinks it's the best photo of her ever, kindly note that at least 80% of those who view this page think otherwise. Also how much does it take to put up a "legacy" section? Just asking. -- HusseinIED ( talk) 10:23, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Jo Calderone redirects here, but there is no mention made of him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.171.161.129 ( talk) 14:42, 29 August 2011 (UTC)
Added. Portillo ( talk) 03:02, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
Jo Calderone is apparently an alter-ego of Gaga. He showed up in an issue of Vogue Homme Japan a few months ago [2], along with pictures of other models, presumably also played by Gaga. In early August, she released her single "You and I", which featured Jo on the cover. He has a twitter account which updates regularly, in which he and Perez Hilton profess their love for one another. [3] . Last week, in an interview with her pals the Semi-Precious Weapons, it was revealed that Jo Calderone and Gaga are one and the same [4]. At the 2011 MTV VMAs, she did an extended monologue, several press interviews, and all her host duties in character as Jo Calderone - a chain-smoking Sicilian Jersey-type mook who is Lady Gaga's lover. Thegeniusboy05 ( talk) 03:13, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
Legolas, see the comment above yours. The Jo Calderone persona is almost the entire focus of her newest single, he's a major subject in the video, he's on the cover of the single, he has his own twitter, he was in magazines, and Gaga did the entire VMAs in character as him. It's ALREADY been established not to be a "one time thing". It absolutely deserves at least a short blurb on the wiki. 71.226.189.151 ( talk) 13:27, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
The biggest issue I see for adding this is where in the article it would fit. I don't really think it belongs in the Born This Way section where it was originally placed. Has Gaga explicitly stated that the persona is linked to her LGBT stances? If so, I would think it could find a good home in that section. -- Fyrefly ( talk) 19:57, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
It would be undue if a whole section was dedicated to Jo Calderone, but there is nothing wrong with a mention that she created an alter-ego. It doesnt matter if she uses the ego for her entire career or not, that still wouldnt change the fact that it should be mentioned in her article. Portillo ( talk) 00:46, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Lady Gaga is essentially a pop/dance artist, but shouldn't the genres also include electropop or electronic as well? Nearly, if not all, her songs could fall within the electropop/synthpop categories. -- &レア ( talk) 11:38, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Lady Gaga says that she is influenced by Freddie Mercury, not Queen. Yet Queen's article states that Lady Gaga sites the band as her influence. If she says Freddie Mercury, then that should be mentioned in Freddie Mercury's article, not Queen's article. Queen of smart alecks 12:55, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
I think there should be a section about her rise to fame. She became famous at a very rapid pace, and I think that is quite a unique phenomenon. I think it could be done, as there should be a few scholastic work about her impact on pop culture. There are also interviews from several acts such as Alice Cooper and Tony Bennett that talk about her cultural impact. DAP388 ( talk) 17:18, 17 September 2011

Guys, the photo is good. But still, in no way does it reflect her outré style. Just the usual monster era Gaga in her outdated outfit!

What about this one? It's recent (2010), has a clear shot of the face (and looking straight ahead, which is generally preferable), is very good quality, and shows Gaga's unique fashion with the hair-hat. One possible complaint is that we can't see her eyes due to the sunglasses, but there are shots throughout the rest of the article that show that part of her face, no? And not to get too waxy, but Michael Jackson is a featured article and the infobox image there has an (excellent, IMO) image of Jackson wearing sunglasses that clearly demonstrates what he looked like at the peak of his fame.
I tried to look for one with no glasses but couldn't find anything recent of as excellent quality as this one. – Chase ( talk / contribs) 21:04, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

I would just like to bring to attention that web page that is linked to reference #15 on Lady Gaga's page has been changed since it was retrieved and no longer contains information about Lady Gaga's early life such as her piano playing, her left-handedness or her college career.

Under the heading Public Image why is president Barack Obama's name not highlighted to link to his article, when other people under that section like Chris Rock, Amy Winehouse, Christina Aguilera, and John Lennon to name just a few are highlighted, and you are able to click to their articles by clicking on their names? It is totally insulting that this even needs to be brought to the attention of anyone as this should have easily been caught. How can you have the names highlighted for those performers but you forgot to do the same for the US president. This obviously was done on purpose, because their is no other way to explain it. Every person's name before and after his name is highlighted to link to their individual articles, BUT NOT HIS?? Regardless of what your political beliefs are, everything must remain consistent. Regardlesss of whom you may have preferred to be president, well, he IS the president, so united behind him. And even if he wasn't a president, the fact that he is well known means his name should be linked to his article just as theirs are. It is very ugly to see this, as it had to be done on purpose; someone didn't want his name highlighted. Get over it. This needs to be fixed before people start going into various articles on Wikipedia and un-highlighting George Bush's name. -Remember, this is an internet encyclopedia; leave your personal views out of it.

Can we have a non-fan rewrite the intro, and possibly the rest of the article? Orane (talk) 20:36, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
-It seems your criticisms are just as biased as the original sentences are; by saying "barf" and "epitome of everything wrong in the music industry" you make it clear you do not like her. It's okay to not be a fan but your ignorance just proves you're making judgements based on assumptions you have made about Gaga and not actual facts. Anyone with a knowledge in music and who has done their research on who Lady Gaga is and what she is about knows that She is a very talented and smart woman. I agree some things in the article are biased and yes those do need to be changed, but it seems you're more interested in making the article biased in your favor and as vague about her accomplishments as possible in an effort to make her seem low-brow because you have some self-righteous dislike for her. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anqrew ( talk • contribs) 05:50, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
the criticism i see here is personal by someone that obviously has a serious hatred of Lady Gaga. They talk about point of view while using terms such as "barf" and saying "every sentence made me want to cringe." If they can not come up with a serious objective criticism, they should not be contributing. When someone such as Tony Bennett who has worked with Aretha Franklin and Paul McCartney says he has never met anyone more talented and even a former President (Bill Clinton) call her "the most talented there is", while at the same time being the biggest selling female artist of the last 3 years who rose to the top faster than any other artist I can think of outside of Elvis, it is hard to take seriously the argument that she is not one of the greatest talents alive today and worthy of the praise she receives especially when no one of any sort of significance has any serious criticisms of her music. I can not think of a current artist that has a more diverse fanbase. You may not like the way the article is written as far as the choice of words but it would be hard for you to prove that anything is unworthy of being there. And where do you propose to find this non-fan of gaga willing to take the time to re-write an entire article of such a massive figure while being completely objective? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.248.119.72 ( talk) 10:14, 28 October 2011 (UTC)

Plus, the link to the sources of that reference is dated, because it says 8/12/10 so it was from August 12th from LAST YEAR. I would like to clear that, as far as the album sales (total) the singles are too because they come frome the same source. Please, update the source. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.140.12.246 ( talk) 02:41, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
hey, i'm from croatia and i was interested if you'd like to put croatian peaks for Gaga's singles in discography. For Born This Way, Judas and The Edge Of Glory and You And I I do have source, but for previous singles don't.
BUT THE PROBLEM IS THAT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO INSERT SOURCE. THE PAGE WHERE YOU CAN FIND A SOURCE (IF YOU'RE INTERESTED) google is: HRT Airplay Radio Chart Top 40. There you can see singles list on right side, and if you click on:
14. ožujka (march 14.) you'll see that Born This Way is number one and so you must find for Judas and other singles.

OK I'm sure this is the 100th time someone says this, but this picture NEEDS to be changed! In no way does it represent Gaga in this present era nor does it show her features clearly due to over-editing (seriously, it rather looks like a painting of the actual Gaga). It never reflected her outré style. So please whoever put this up and thinks it's the best photo of her ever, kindly note that at least 80% of those who view this page think otherwise. Also how much does it take to put up a "legacy" section? Just asking. -- HusseinIED ( talk) 10:23, 3 September 2011 (UTC)

Jo Calderone redirects here, but there is no mention made of him. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.171.161.129 ( talk) 14:42, 29 August 2011 (UTC)

Jo Calderone is apparently an alter-ego of Gaga. He showed up in an issue of Vogue Homme Japan a few months ago [2], along with pictures of other models, presumably also played by Gaga. In early August, she released her single "You and I", which featured Jo on the cover. He has a twitter account which updates regularly, in which he and Perez Hilton profess their love for one another. [3] . Last week, in an interview with her pals the Semi-Precious Weapons, it was revealed that Jo Calderone and Gaga are one and the same [4]. At the 2011 MTV VMAs, she did an extended monologue, several press interviews, and all her host duties in character as Jo Calderone - a chain-smoking Sicilian Jersey-type mook who is Lady Gaga's lover. Thegeniusboy05 ( talk) 03:13, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
Legolas, see the comment above yours. The Jo Calderone persona is almost the entire focus of her newest single, he's a major subject in the video, he's on the cover of the single, he has his own twitter, he was in magazines, and Gaga did the entire VMAs in character as him. It's ALREADY been established not to be a "one time thing". It absolutely deserves at least a short blurb on the wiki. 71.226.189.151 ( talk) 13:27, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
The biggest issue I see for adding this is where in the article it would fit. I don't really think it belongs in the Born This Way section where it was originally placed. Has Gaga explicitly stated that the persona is linked to her LGBT stances? If so, I would think it could find a good home in that section. -- Fyrefly ( talk) 19:57, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
It would be undue if a whole section was dedicated to Jo Calderone, but there is nothing wrong with a mention that she created an alter-ego. It doesnt matter if she uses the ego for her entire career or not, that still wouldnt change the fact that it should be mentioned in her article. Portillo ( talk) 00:46, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

Lady Gaga is essentially a pop/dance artist, but shouldn't the genres also include electropop or electronic as well? Nearly, if not all, her songs could fall within the electropop/synthpop categories. -- &レア ( talk) 11:38, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

Lady Gaga says that she is influenced by Freddie Mercury, not Queen. Yet Queen's article states that Lady Gaga sites the band as her influence. If she says Freddie Mercury, then that should be mentioned in Freddie Mercury's article, not Queen's article. Queen of smart alecks 12:55, 17 September 2011 (UTC)
I think there should be a section about her rise to fame. She became famous at a very rapid pace, and I think that is quite a unique phenomenon. I think it could be done, as there should be a few scholastic work about her impact on pop culture. There are also interviews from several acts such as Alice Cooper and Tony Bennett that talk about her cultural impact. DAP388 ( talk) 17:18, 17 September 2011

the estimated sale of 13 million albums are wrong you just have to take your calculator and move through each album and certifications on wikipedia and count the certifcation gaga just BTW and The Fame've 13,000,000
Lady Gaga has certified the amount of 13 million albums but sales are by 15.000.000 Music Charts , and 13.000.000 Mediatraffic they consider the market in Japan, Germany, USA, UK, France, Australia and New Zealand with weekly update For Born this way are 4.500.000 millions. the remixes only in japan sold 250.000 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 186.10.177.38 ( talk) 07:34, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

(←) Theologiae, I don't think an image of Gaga with teal hair would be appropriate for the infobox. Although she is known for her plethora of colored wigs, at the end of the day she's most notable for being a blonde.

Guys, the photo is good. But still, in no way does it reflect her outré style. Just the usual monster era Gaga in her outdated outfit!

What about this one? It's recent (2010), has a clear shot of the face (and looking straight ahead, which is generally preferable), is very good quality, and shows Gaga's unique fashion with the hair-hat. One possible complaint is that we can't see her eyes due to the sunglasses, but there are shots throughout the rest of the article that show that part of her face, no? And not to get too waxy, but Michael Jackson is a featured article and the infobox image there has an (excellent, IMO) image of Jackson wearing sunglasses that clearly demonstrates what he looked like at the peak of his fame.
I tried to look for one with no glasses but couldn't find anything recent of as excellent quality as this one. – Chase ( talk / contribs) 21:04, 9 September 2011 (UTC)

I would just like to bring to attention that web page that is linked to reference #15 on Lady Gaga's page has been changed since it was retrieved and no longer contains information about Lady Gaga's early life such as her piano playing, her left-handedness or her college career. This is just a recommendation that a different reliable source be found for the information, one of which I can not find presently.

Under the heading Public Image why is president Barack Obama's name not highlighted to link to his article, when other people under that section like Chris Rock, Amy Winehouse, Christina Aguilera, and John Lennon to name just a few are highlighted, and you are able to click to their articles by clicking on their names? It is totally insulting that this even needs to be brought to the attention of anyone as this should have easily been caught. How can you have the names highlighted for those performers but you forgot to do the same for the US president. This obviously was done on purpose, because their is no other way to explain it. Every person's name before and after his name is highlighted to link to their individual articles, BUT NOT HIS?? Regardless of what your political beliefs are, everything must remain consistent. Regardlesss of whom you may have preferred to be president, well, he IS the president, so united behind him. And even if he wasn't a president, the fact that he is well known means his name should be linked to his article just as theirs are. It is very ugly to see this, as it had to be done on purpose; someone didn't want his name highlighted. Get over it. This needs to be fixed before people start going into various articles on Wikipedia and un-highlighting George Bush's name. -Remember, this is an internet encyclopedia; leave your personal views out of it.

I read only the introduction of this promotional piece, and couldn't stop myself from cringing with every sentence.
Can we have a non-fan rewrite the intro, and possibly the rest of the article? Orane (talk) 20:36, 27 October 2011 (UTC)
-It seems your criticisms are just as biased as the original sentences are; by saying "barf" and "epitome of everything wrong in the music industry" you make it clear you do not like her. It's okay to not be a fan but your ignorance just proves you're making judgements based on assumptions you have made about Gaga and not actual facts. Anyone with a knowledge in music and who has done their research on who Lady Gaga is and what she is about knows that She is a very talented and smart woman. I agree some things in the article are biased and yes those do need to be changed, but it seems you're more interested in making the article biased in your favor and as vague about her accomplishments as possible in an effort to make her seem low-brow because you have some self-righteous dislike for her. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Anqrew ( talk • contribs) 05:50, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
the criticism i see here is personal by someone that obviously has a serious hatred of Lady Gaga. They talk about point of view while using terms such as "barf" and saying "every sentence made me want to cringe." If they can not come up with a serious objective criticism, they should not be contributing. When someone such as Tony Bennett who has worked with Aretha Franklin and Paul McCartney says he has never met anyone more talented and even a former President (Bill Clinton) call her "the most talented there is", while at the same time being the biggest selling female artist of the last 3 years who rose to the top faster than any other artist I can think of outside of Elvis, it is hard to take seriously the argument that she is not one of the greatest talents alive today and worthy of the praise she receives especially when no one of any sort of significance has any serious criticisms of her music. I can not think of a current artist that has a more diverse fanbase. You may not like the way the article is written as far as the choice of words but it would be hard for you to prove that anything is unworthy of being there. And where do you propose to find this non-fan of gaga willing to take the time to re-write an entire article of such a massive figure while being completely objective? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.248.119.72 ( talk) 10:14, 28 October 2011 (UTC)
