It's happened before. In the industry now, with the likes of Adele, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga, she'll have a tough time competing. Commercially that is. I can't understand how Rihanna is so successful on charts. Critically speaking, people will have very high expectations for Madge, and will find themselves disappointed. C'mon, she has had her fair share of criticism and commercial failure. After the negative reviews for W/.E., who knows. She's gotta outdo herself. I do have strong hopes for one of the greatest artists of the century, but not getting my hopes too high. — WP:PENGUIN · [ TALK ] 22:54, 12 January 2012 (UTC)

I've declined your speedy deletion requests for Hurts Like Heaven and Us Against The World (Coldplay Song). The A3 speedy deletion criterion clearly states that only pages without ANY content are eligible for speedy deletion under it, and each song clearly had content- in fact, they had at least two coherent sentences each.-- Slon02 ( talk) 04:31, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

With the thin level of support so far, I don't think the FLC is ready for a result, unfortunately. For now, I'm leaving it up there to allow it the chance to be reviewed further. Be patient and I'm sure things will work out. Also, please consider reviewing one or two of the lists yourself. The fewer lists on FLC, the less competition your list has for reviews!

hey..just wanted to let you know i changed JLo's infobox again... My reasoning was this: The actress info-box does nothing but list her family or whatever, which isn't needed. The music box does a bit more, it says her label and genre which isn't a far big difference from the other one. 50% of the article (or more) does focus on her singing career. :\ please don't change it back, hope you know where I'm coming from; plus its been that way a long time... :) Good luck with your school! x Soap Jar 10:20, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
WikiCup 2012 is off to a flying start. At the time of writing, we have 112 contestants; comparable to last year, but slightly fewer than 2010.
Signups will remain open for another week, after which time they will be closed for this year. Our currrent far-away leader is
Grapple X (
submissions), due mostly to his work on a slew of good articles about
The X-Files; there remain many such articles waiting to be reviewed at
good article candidates. Second place is currently held by
Ruby2010 (
submissions), whose points come mostly from good articles about television episodes, although good article reviews, did you knows and an article about a baroness round out the score. In third place is
Jivesh boodhun (
submissions), who has scored 200 points for his work on a single featured article, as well as points for work on others, mostly in the area of pop music. In all, nine users have 100 or more points. However, at the other end of the scale, there are still dozens of participants who are yet to score. Please remember to update your submission pages promptly!
The 64 highest scoring participants will advance to round 2 in a month's time. There, they will be split into eight random groups of eight. The score needed to reach the next round is not at all clear; last year, 8 points guaranteed a place. The year before, 20.
A few participants and their work warrant a mention for achieving "firsts" in this competition.
We are yet to see any featured lists, featured topics or good topics, but this is unsurprising; firstly, the nomination processes with each of these can take some time, and, secondly, it can take a considerable amount of time to work content to this level. In a similar vein, we have seen only one featured article. The requirement that content must have been worked on this year to be eligible means that we did not expect to see these at the start of the competition. No points have been claimed for featured portals or pictures, but these are not content types which are often claimed; the former has never made a big impact on the WikiCup, while the latter has not done so since 2009's competition.
A quick rules clarification before the regular notices: If you are concerned that another user is claiming points inappropriately, please contact a judge to take a look at the article. Competitors policing one another can create a bad atmosphere, and may lead to inconsistencies and mistakes. Rest assured that we, the judges, are making an effort to check submissions, but it is possible that we will miss something. On a loosely related note: If you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, or by email. Good luck!

Hi there. Well i was wondering if you could upload the pics..like you said yesterday..if its not a hassle :). Also, i want to make a "In the media" section on Jen's main page. I feel that the fashion thing and the public image is too weak a subject to be included on another page, and its not that long either; however i think the personal life page is going good, and should be moved to Personal life of Jennifer Lopez and scrap the public image thing. I was also thinking of making a "Legacy" (about her milestones, influences on other people, her acknowledgement like the Walk on Hollywood etc and her Legacy within the Spanish community) even though there isn't a lot to write. What are ya thinking? Please get back to me ;) Soap Jar 07:47, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Hey, i suggest (if you're up to it) we work on her Awards and Nominations page (J.Lo). It's in a bad shape and we need to source everything and make it as reliable as possible. Hey; what do you think about Legacy & Public image? I worked a bit on that :D It was hard to find stuff for legacy considering she isn't a HUGE legend but i added what i could about her influence over Spanish and blahblahblah lol :D i was also thinking of adding an "In The Media" section about her rankings etc but im not sure. I think her page is on the path. Also hope you're not mad at me...noticed you didn't respond to one of my inquiries the other day :\ JLo is really my main focus on wiki...if im being a hog with the article please tell me, i can return to editing soaps lol. Also, because the 2010-present section is kinda long, can we make a 2010-11: Love? American Idol and comeback / then - 2011-present: Return to film and greatest hits album. What do you think?

The only issue I have with your suggestion is that Madonna's website/Facebook/etc. never confirmed that the 15 tracks originally posted were all for the standard edition - just that those were 15 of the songs that were appearing on the album in some form. The URL for the standard edition art may have 15 instead of 12 in the URL, but typically posts like that won't edit the URL if there are edits made unless a change is deliberately made to the URL itself.

Your recent editing history shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block. If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. You may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly. 198.102.153.2 (talk) 17:47, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

Round 1 is already over! The 64 highest scorers have progressed to round 2. Our highest scorer was
Grapple X (
submissions), again thanks mostly to a swathe of good articles on The X-Files. In second place was
Tigerboy1966 (
submissions), thanks an impressive list of did you knows about racehorses. Both scored over 400 points. Following behind with over 300 points were
Ruby2010 (
submissions),
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions),
Miyagawa (
submissions) and
Casliber (
submissions). February also saw the competition's first featured list:
List of colleges and universities in North Dakota, from
Ruby2010 (
submissions). At the other end of the scale, 11 points was enough to secure a place in this round, and some contestants with 10 points made it into the round on a tiebreaker. This is higher than the 8 points that were needed last year, but lower than the 20 points required the year before. The number of points required to progress to round 3 will be significantly higher.
The remaining contestants have been split into 8 pools of 8, named A through H. Round two will finish in two months time on 28 April, when the two highest scorers in each pool, as well as the next 16 highest scorers, will progress to round 3. The pools were entirely random, so while some pools may end up being more competitive than others, this is by chance rather than design.
The judges would like to point out two quick rules reminders. First, any content promoted during the interim period (that is, on or after 27 February) is eligible for points in round 2. Second, any content worked on significantly this year is eligible for points if promoted in this round. On a related note, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews.

Also, I am going to start from Love and Light and work myself backwards for her fragrances. Its not gonna be flooded with info, obviously, but ill source it good and add all the right info :) Nearly done the Love & Light page :).. hope you don't think they (perfumes) are too irrelevant :\ its something im desperate to do for JLo's pages :) and its a great reference to have those pages and is of public interest...what do u think?

It was written in a highly promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Although you went to some trouble to provide references, such essentially spammy claims cannot be sourced to dubiously neutral sites. You need to provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Even then, you would need to write an encyclopaedia article rather than would could well have passed for a publicity release.
It's a good thing to have articles on this sort of topic, which is poorly represented, but for a commercial product you need to take great care with neutrality and sourcing Jimfbleak - talk to me? 17:14, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of products endorsed by Jennifer Lopez is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of products endorsed by Jennifer Lopez until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.

Hey!!! :) How are you? Im trying to work on her albums page atm, but not getting far -- i got some done for the remixes ;) Please check it out. OMG there is a user:Sola2012 they keep changing the Como ama una mujer page to "It sold 45,000 copies in its first week. It has sold 2,000,000 copies already," and they give random sources leading to the CURRENT Billboard 200, etc. -.- And they are like to me "As you notice we are in 2012 not 2007" but i added "It HAD sold 800,000 copies by August 2007" because there is no OTHER source. Just keep on the look-out for that its pretty annoying. − Arrekea♥ (Talk) 05:09, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

There is a guideline at Wikipedia:Naming conventions (capitalization) which states in an article about foreign-language names: "If the article is about a work in a foreign language (such as a book or other written work, movie, album, or song), using the capitalization found in most English language reliable sources is recommended". I don't know how I or how the consensus to use WP:ALBUMCAPS overlooked this part. I really apologized if I have caused any inconviences. Erick ( talk) 07:34, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
I am generally in favour of deleting implausible redirects but when I saw your speedy tag on Como Ama una Mujer, I was shocked. By all means tag it for deletion but do not do so until you have fixed all the incoming links from the (article) namespace. Also, please do not re-instate {{User talk:Status/Header}} on this page until you have fixed the page widening that it causes.

Hi Zach. I hope you know that the US is the only country that counts airplay and streaming while compiling its chart. In other words, only a radio release in the US is valid unless a certain remix of the song concerned is sent to radios. Jivesh1205 ( Talk) 10:21, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

We are over half way through the second round of this year's WikiCup and things are going well!
Grapple X (
submissions), of Pool B, is our highest overall scorer thanks to his prolific writings on television and film. In second place is Pool H's
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions), thanks primarily to work on biological articles, especially in
marine biology and
herpetology. Third place goes to Pool E's
Casliber (
submissions), who also writes primarily on biology (including
ornithology and
botany) and has already submitted two featured articles this round. Of the 63 contestants remaining, 15 (just under a quarter) have over 100 points this round. However, 25 are yet to score. Please remember to update your submission pages promptly. 32 contestants, the top two from each pool and the 16 next-highest scorers, will advance to round 3.
Congratulations to
Matthewedwards (
submissions), whose impressive
File:Wacht am Rhein map (Opaque).svg became the competition's first featured picture. Also, congratulations to
12george1 (
submissions), who claimed good topic points, our first contestant this year to do so, for his work on
Wikipedia:Featured topics/1982 Atlantic hurricane season. This leaves featured topics and featured portals as the only sources of points not yet utilised. However, as
recent statistics from
Miyagawa (
submissions) show, no source has yet been utilised this competition to the same extent it has been previously!
It has been observed that the backlogs at good article candidates are building up again. While the points for good article reviews will be remaining constant, any help that can be offered keeping the backlog down would be appreciated. On a related note, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Are you even going to explain why a picture of Mariah Carey is placed prominently on a song by Jennifer Lopez? Or does the reader have to work that out? Currently this article shows more of Carey, who had absolutely nothing to do with it, than Lopez. Can you also explain why we even need this picture? Why L.A. Reid and not Pitbull, or Redone, or Casper Smart, or even Ryan Seacrest? Reid is just a suit, no-one cares what he looks like, especially not with Carey. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 14:07, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi. I'm not sure about this "accolades" thing.. if see you go here an accolade is only something that she has won, and nominations don't count as accolades. It doesn't really matter if its shorter. Sorry, i'm not a bit..hm i don't agree with the title. Notice e.g. here Janet (album) when they list accolades, they only list the awards won. Please get back to me.

Deliberately removed sourced material in favor of unsourced material, multiple times does constitute as disruptive editing, per Wikipedia policy. If the template chooses to use the word "vandalize", that is up to the decision of the policymakers on Wikipedia, take grievances up with them. The user has been warned three times for the same actions and I am acting accordingly. You may want to take the time to research certain situations before you abruptly interject your "opinion".

Round 2 of this year's WikiCup is over, and so we are down to our final 32, in what could be called our quarter-finals. The two highest scorers from each pool, as well as the next 16 highest scorers overall, have entered round 3, while 30 participants have been eliminated. Pool B's
Grapple X (
submissions) remains our top scorer with over 700 points; he continues to gain high numbers of points for his good articles on
The X-Files, but also
Millennium and other subjects. He has also gained points for a good topic, a featured list, multiple good article reviews and several did you knows. Pool E's
Casliber (
submissions) was second, thanks primarily to his biology articles, with Pool H's
Muboshgu (
submissions) coming in third, with an impressive 46 did you knows, mostly on the subject of baseball. Casliber and Cwmhiraeth both scored over 600 points. Pools E and H proved our most successful, with each seeing 5 members qualify for round 3, while Pools C and D were the least, with each seeing only 3 reach round 3. However, it was Pool G which saw the lowest scoring, with a little under 400 points combined; Pool H, the highest scoring group, saw over triple that score.
65 points was the lowest qualifying score for round 3; significantly higher than the 11 required to enter round 2, and also higher than the 41 required to reach round 3 last year. However, in 2010, 100 points were needed to secure a place in round 3. 16 will progress to round 4. In round 3, 150 points was the 16th highest score, though, statistically, people tend to up their game a little in later rounds. Last year, 76 points secured a place, while in 2010, a massive 250 points were needed. Guessing how many points will be required is not easy. We still have not seen any featured portals or topics this year, but, on the subject of less common content types, a small correction needs to be made to the previous newsletter:
File:Wacht am Rhein map (Opaque).svg, our first featured picture, was the work of both
Matthewedwards (
submissions) and
Grandiose (
submissions), the latter of whom has also gone on to score with
File:Map of the Battle of Guam, 1944.svg. Bonus points also continue to roll in; this round,
Ealdgyth (
submissions) earned triple points for her good articles on
William the Conqueror and the
Middle Ages, Casliber and Cwmhiraeth both earned triple points for their work on

A mid-importance article supported by WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers that was reviewed by Version 1.0 Editorial Team and selected for Version 0.7 and subsequent release versions. The article has come a long way from a fan boy mish mash to a fair enough GA. Now is the time to take it to the next level. Currently it's going through another peer review. Please, lend a hand.

I am considering rolling back my recent edit on it as a dispute on the 1998 re-entry of "Put a Little Holiday in Your Heart" seems debatable to me as the re-entry is actually 20 hits lower then it's 1997, it dropped from 51 to 71. So I am of course comparing it to " Sparks Fly" where it re-entered the Billboard Hot 100 but it did not peak as high as a single as it did in 2010 when it was not released but I just wanted your opinion should both entries be posted or just one? Swifty* talk 21:43, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
We're halfway through round 3 (or the quarter finals, if you prefer) and things are running smoothly. We're seeing very high scoring; as of the time of writing, the top 16 all have over 90 points. This has already proved to be more competative than this time last year- in 2011, 76 points secured a place, while in 2010, a massive 250 was the lowest qualifying score. People have also upped their game slightly from last round, which is to be expected as we approach the end of the competition. Leading Pool A is
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions), whose points have mostly come from a large number of did you knows on marine biology. Pool B's leader,
Grapple X (
submissions), is for the first time not our highest scorer at the time of newsletter publication, but his good articles on The X-Files and Millenium keep him in second place overall.
Miyagawa (
submissions) leads Pool C, our quietest pool, with content in a variety of areas on a variety of topics. Pool D is led by
Casliber (
submissions), our current overall leader. Nearly half of Casliber's points come from his triple-scored
Western Jackdaw, which is now a featured article.
This round has seen an unusually high number of featured lists, with nearly one in five remaining participants claiming one, and one user,
Muboshgu (
submissions), claiming two. Miyagawa's featured list,
1936 Summer Olympics medal table, was even awarded double points. By comparison, good article reviews seem to be playing a smaller part, and featured topics portals remain two content-types still unutilised in this competition. Other than that, there isn't much to say! Things are coming along smoothly. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Justin Bieber on Twitter is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Justin Bieber on Twitter until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article.
Informing you of this nomination because of your previous participation in the Justin Bieber on Twitter merge into Justin Bieber discussion.-- LauraHale ( talk) 03:03, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
I don't think products/endorsements should go into her main section because there is already a lot of information. Need i talk about her impact like bringing back Celeb endorsements etc? And recently she was just named #1 by UK; where does all of that go? Whatever...is there any chance of bringing it back or have you made up your mind? :\ If it was too long, it could have just been trimmed, the info that wasn't as relevant could be removed. I'm not really comparing but the Beyoncé Knowles article includes bio, artistry, legacy, philanthropy and other ventures (Which is basically products & endorsements)...and that article is a GA.. Sorry for the length of this message, i would just like you to maybe re-consider a little bit. If the article is too long i could begin to trim the legacy & artistry section?

I'd like to know how removing unsourced content: "The song was originally going to be released as the second single from the album; however, it was later announced that "Hard" would become the second single instead, whilst "Wait Your Turn" served as the promotional single" and having users who WP:IDONTLIKEIT (the fact that the song was released as a single) revert me, and reverting back twice as they had no premise to revert equals me being blocked. Statυs ( talk) 22:47, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
For everyone screaming "unfair", I'll ask the first, obvious question: where is the source that confirms this song is a single, anyway? I'll be sympathetic if someone can show me that Status was preventing someone from replacing well-sourced information with unsourced information, but I can't look at the article and see that.— Kww( talk) 23:01, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
I will always provide a source or relevant policy when reverting a second or greater time. Statυs ( talk) 00:43, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Deseo (fragrance), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Moreover, please add more verifiable sources, not only 3rd party sources. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion (
{{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit
the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

This time on If You Had My Love and yes, you are blocked again for resuming that behavior immediately upon release of your previous block for edit warring. Toddst1 ( talk) 04:11, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
"Editing restriction: 'I will always provide a source or relevant policy when reverting a second or greater time.'", which I did [10] Statυs ( talk) 04:26, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
People seem to be missing that Status voluntarily agreed to provide a source or policy reference whenever reverting for the second or greater time. That restriction is now in his block log. There's no doubt that without that restriction this block would be difficult to justify. With that restriction, though, it makes a lot more sense.— Kww( talk) 19:22, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Status ( block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser ( log))
Request reason:
I was blocked for edit warring on If You Had My Love, when I didn't actually break any polices. A user added an unsourced genre to the article, and I reverted, telling them to add a reliable source if they wanted to add a genre. This is per my editing restriction: "I will always provide a source or relevant policy when reverting a second or greater time." Statυs ( talk) 05:22, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Procedural decline: block has expired PhantomSteve/ talk| contribs\ 19:31, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{ unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
Note to reviewing admin(s): Under almost any other circumstance, a second revert such as Status performed would not be grounds for blocking. In this particular circumstance, performing his second almost identical revert - immediately upon early release of his previous block for edit warring under very similar circumstances is continued disruptive editing and clear evidence that this editor does not know what edit warring is, why it is considered disruptive and what the acceptable exceptions are. Toddst1 ( talk) 06:09, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Note to reviewing admin(s): The block pattern of Toddst1 is currently being discussed at Administrators noticeboard. Statυs ( talk) 06:21, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Unblock would be appropriate as explained here Nobody Ent 02:21, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
@Kww: I consider that asking a user to provide a reference supporting a specific genre may create some sort of conflict of interest, since that user may find a source only providing the genre they want to be included. As you are aware of all this sourcing genre debate, the fact that I asked the user to provide a source to cover his assumptions that the song was indeed R&B is a reasonable request, because different sources says different things. Statυs ( talk) 03:10, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
For any admin who happens to be looking at this unblock request and wondering if its worth it now, just because there is only a half and hour left of my block does not mean that it is no longer relevant or stands. It is ridiculous that no one has reviewed my unblock request (accept or deny). This was an unjust block, as many users have stated on this page. Statυs ( talk) 03:32, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Apologies for the lateness of this letter; our usual bot wasn't working. We are now entering round 4, our semi-finals, and have our final 16. A score of 243 was required to reach this round; significantly more than 2011's 76 points, and only a little behind 2010's 250 points. By comparison, last year, 150 points in round 4 secured a place in the final; in 2010, 430 were needed. Commiserations to Pool A's
igordebraga (
submissions), who scored 242 points, missing out on a place in the round by a whisker. However, congratulations to Pool B's
Grapple X (
submissions), whose television articles have brought him another round victory. Pool A's
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions) came second overall, with an impressive list of biological did you knows, good articles and featured articles. Third overall was Pool D's

Why exactly is this still open when it was confirmed to be another user (Hahc21) not noticing they were logged out of their account? Statυs ( talk) 15:54, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
In light of recent events, I find this something I must do. I have always been aware that I am not irreplaceable, and have always shown pride in the fact that I have been an upstanding editor who has made good contributions to the project. After two blocks, although unjustified, I can no longer say that is true. I feel beaten down, to say the least. I had originally added the {{ retired}} template to this talk page, but then I remembered all the projects that I had started and had not completed. Once my block expires, I will finish up the remaining projects I have under development and take a leave of absence from Wikipedia. I don't know for how long that may be; think of it as an extended Wikibreak. I may end up never coming back. It will be hard at first, as I have been an active member of the English Wikipedia for almost two years now, but I will try my best to stay away.
I wish you all the best of luck with your endeavors.
Due to the strong support I have been getting from users and seeing that I would actually be missed, the above is no longer accurate. I still, however, am considering retirement. I will still continue to edit regularly, just not as much. Statυs ( talk) 05:18, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

This is quite disgusting. You've been an incredible friend and good editor and watch you leave is very sad. I'm praying for you to stay, but it's your desicion at the end. I'll be in contact with you from the outside ans we've been doing. This situation discouraged me either from editing on Wikipedia, and i think I will extend my Wikibreak for a longer period. Cheers! — Hahc 21 18:40, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
...how both I and
User:Till I Go Home get our
Rollback rights removed, yet
User:Hahc21 does not? Let me explain.
User:Toddst1 left Till I Go Home a
long message on their talk page stating that "Rollback requires a thorough understanding of
WP:EW,
WP:3RR and to some extent
WP:BLP all of which you are clearly having problems with." He left a note stating: "Editor's repeated statements have made it clear that s/he doesn't understand what an EW is and isn't, so removing RB. This may be restored later if the user demonstrates a full understanding of the policy." Now, Rollback does not require any of the sort. The page states: "Administrators may revoke the rollback feature or issue a block in response to a persistent failure to explain reverts, regardless of the means used. However, they should allow the editor an opportunity to explain their use of rollback before taking any action – there may be justification of which the administrator is not aware (such as reversion of a banned user). Similarly, editors who edit war may lose the privilege regardless of the means used to edit war." Till I Go Home has not done anything of the sort, and should not have his rollback rights removed. Similarity, Toddst1 has accused Hahc21 of not the same issues, but has not removed his rights. My rollback rights were also removed for "repeated blocks for edit warring, not understanding EW policy and exceptions". "not understanding EW policy and exceptions" is not a valid reason to remove rollback rights, as I previously stated above. He is, however, still entitled to remove the rights per: "Similarly, editors who edit war may lose the privilege regardless of the means used to edit war." But he is still bound by this: "However, they should allow the editor an opportunity to explain their use of rollback before taking any action." which in this case would be normal undoing. It has also been disputed the fact that what I had done was even an EW, which has been discussed above.
User:Gimmetoo explained this situation perfectly: "This is a good example of the problem of inconsistent standards and punishment. Not everyone agrees there was even edit warring." Toddst1 blocking me because he felt I was edit warring isn't technically wrong, as Gimmetoo also stated, but him then taking away my user rights is, especially if I hadn't even used the feature during the "edit war". And also considering I rarely have even used the tool.
Statυs (
talk) 21:41, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Since Todd doesn't seem to want to leave a response here, which he is clearly aware of, as he has asking other user to comment to another user about something they said here, I will be forced to bring this up in, yet another, ANI report. Edits to this section can still be made until I am unblocked, in which time I will be moving this to a appropriate section of Wikipedia where all can see. I'm really interested in seeing what others think of this. Statυs ( talk) 00:47, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

I am both pleased and honored to present you with the Silk Purse Award in appreciation for your superb improvements to the Feelin' So Good (video) article, essentially changing what was seen as a sow's ear by one into a terrific silk purse for everyone else. A lack of nominator diligence is no reason to delete a notable topic. Schmidt, MICHAEL Q. 09:01, 3 July 2012 (UTC) |
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot’s recommendations. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information in the consent information sheet.
We have added information about the opportunity to make substantial valuable contributions to an article using a Low/Medium/High scale which goes from Low
to High
. The score is calculated by combining an article's readership and quality.
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom ( talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot ( talk) 12:02, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
Wow, that came as a surprise when I saw it. I should hope that you give that idea a lot of thought before jumping too quickly. I personally think you do some very awesome work around here that often incorporates a lot of really good, straight forward common sense. When I stumble upon music articles that are really messed up, I often use your last edit in history as a calibration tool for figuring out what went wrong it after you left. I trust your judgement and knowledge in the area of modern pop music, and you're the user I'd most likely come to if I needed advice or a second opinion in that particular subject area. I urge you to try hard to shrug off whatever is currently bothering you, stand up straight, and carry on with what you do best. I look forward to seeing more of you in the months to come. :) -- WikHead ( talk) 22:10, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

I reinstated your removed comments at this AfD with a strikethrough, bit I see you have removed them again. Please note that Wikipedia policy ( WP:AFDFORMAT) states "[d]o not make conflicting recommendations; if you change your mind, modify your original recommendation rather than adding a new one" and the strikethrough technique is reccomended. It is important for the closing administrator to see the evolution of the debate when closing an AfD nomination, so it's best that all comments remain on the page.

Yes, it was over. Your only next step is an RFC/A. Poor idea to unarchive it, as no immediate administrator action was to come from it. ( ✉→ BWilkins ←✎) 19:39, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
All I wanted was a agreement that his block on me was either correct or incorrect. I don't want to involve the whole community like that, or make a big deal out of this. His overall actions don't seem to be that bad, although there are some questionable ones. I'm aware of the fact that admins are not perfect. I'm not the only one who disputes the fact that I was blocked. I would just like to continue on with my contributions to Wikipedia as if nothing had happened, but before that, I would require my rollback rights restored. Seeing as how it is disputed that my edits were even edit warring, and he removed them for that reason; I believe that requires a discussion among users, which is why I restored the ANI discussion. Additionally, he blocked me immediately after we had a little dispute on a user's talk page, which is covered on WP:INVOLVED. Statυs ( talk) 22:23, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Status, would you mind discussing the change to the lede? I reworded the start of it to:
I believe this is a more accurate wording for the Foundation since they clearly aren't working solely in America or for an American-only goal. The big clue being their constant mention of making a better world (rather than a better more inclusive America) and the fact that the Born Brave buses are following her on tours to help others. There's also her poster campaign and hook-up with Viacom which were not confined to just America and so i believe this to be factually incorrect. Thanks ツ Jenova 20 ( email) 23:50, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

We're approaching the beginning of 2012's final round. Pool A sees
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions) as the leader, with 300 points being awarded for the featured article
Bivalvia, and Pool B sees
Grapple X (
submissions) in the lead, with 10 good articles, and over 35 articles eligible for good topic points. Pool A sees
Muboshgu (
submissions) in second place with a number of articles relating to baseball, while Pool B's
Ruby2010 (
submissions) follows Grapple X, with a variety of contributions including the high-scoring, high-importance featured article on the 2010 film
Pride & Prejudice. Ruby2010, like Grapple X, also claimed a number of good topic points; despite this, not a single point has been claimed for featured topics in the contest so far. The same is true for featured portals.
Currently, the eighth-place competitor (and so the lowest scorer who would reach the final round right now) has scored 332, more than double the 150 needed to reach the final round last year. In 2010, however, 430 was the lowest qualifying score. In this competition, we have generally seen scores closer to those in 2010 than those in 2011. Let's see what kind of benchmark we can set for future competitions! As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

I see reverted the album cover image I uploaded, a while ago. I just thought it would make better sense to have an album cover image with the actual Metamorphosis text on the cover. Granted, the image you want is a lot more cleaner than the image I uploaded. The image without the Metamorphosis text is taken from photocopies of the actual CD cover, the image with the Metamorphosis text, is the web version and is a close representation of what the CD cover looks like from a far, with the Metamorphosis text on the CD binding. Anyway, I found this particular image [14], which may or may not be a larger image of the one uploaded. I think is particular image could be a compromise for the both of us (once its shrunk to fair use size), its not as clean as the photocopy, but its a lot more clear than the one I uploaded. Let me know what you think and if you don't want any further changes to the file, I won't bother you about this anymore. QuasyBoy (talk) 04:51, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Hey, I noticed today that on Billboard.biz, if you go to archive and search for something (such as a song's peak date), you can get to the archived, full chart. Works the same for album and video charts as well. Here's an example of what I mean. I figured I would tell you since you are online. Anyway, if you need to find an chart archive date or something I would suggest you do it before they figure out. Toa Nidhiki05 02:47, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
OMG... I just noticed I was doing year end charts only. Statυs ( talk) 03:10, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
First of all, you must be reading a different Ciara letter than I am, because the only single that she said her label told radio stations not to play was "Gimmie Dat". All she said about other songs was "there were time that i chose songs to lead a project but i was ignored". In translation, she's saying the songs she chose weren't released, but as she gave no titles, it is WP:OR to assume she's talking about certain songs. In addition, the radio1 source you have for june 15, 2009 has a number of remixes and internet inks that never hit radio or put on an album. According to that, Drake released five singles that day, while Lil Wayne, 50 Cent, and T.I. also released songs, (None of them are included on any of their albums or are considered to be singles. In that way, the site is unreliable, and everything on that page is false. As for the billboard source, its just a review that happened to be published on June 20, 2009. The reviewer most likely received the song at the time that all other sites first announced that it "will be" released. ( a critic needs time to write a review and get it published) The song may have been cancelled within that time (look at sweat, it premiered on june 4th and sites like Rap-Up said it will be released, but as you know in those two weeks between that and its planned digital release, it was CANCELLED) Plus in that same article, it reviews The-Dream's Walkin on the moon, which was released to radio on April 28th, according to Radio and records (R&R.com). So the publishing date has nothing to do with when it was released. The song is not listed on FMQB or R&R (which shows urban radio release archives)
If that's not enough she never even mentioned it in the summer of 2009 and didn't even perform it on her tour with Jay-Z IN THE US. Plus, as I know singles don't need music videos, NAME one Ciara single that does;t have a video. She even released one for Gimmie Dat when she had to pay for it herself (her videos are what she's known for).
So there is no source that gives a date of release for it, and by the time of that billboard article, it had already charted due to unsolicited radio airplay. So, there's no way to show it was released. I wanted it to be a single, because I was a fan that didn;t want her to give up on Fantasy Ride, but the fact is it wasn't.
Nothing says radio or CD single (not even digital download, which Work got in the US in December 2009). So please tell me in what way, shape, or form can you say that that song was released?-- TheCountdown ( talk) 03:22, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for your comments in regards to the canvassing allegations being made against myself. However, I feel that you should be made aware of the entire issue, as it would have saved you time purging the allegations further. As it has been pointed out and noted by all involved, at the time of the Suntribe AfD I had started to update the WP:EURO newsletter with AfD alerts so project members would receive the notifications. At that time I noticed user BabbaQ was actively editing. As I know he is a member of the same project I left him a note to let him know there was an AfD if he wished to participate. I had never stated that the user must participate nor did I force the user to cast a keep !vote. I then proceeded to each of the respective article pages to continue posting AfD notifications in case members of WP:EURO don't have all pages on their watchlists - and believe me there are members who can't be bothered to add pages to a watchlist. I was unbeknown that BabbaQ was also posting the same notices across various article talk pages, it was the edit conflicts that made me aware, and it would have been darn right stupid to duplicate a post twice on one talk page. I have never been away that BabbaQ is a "99.9% keep" as he has participated in other AfD and has been known to vote delete, merger, redirect based on his own opinion of the case. The user who cast the accusation has acknowledged this but is refusing to retract their allegations - why I have no idea. But it is most unfair that they should acknowledge their allegation was wrong but not retract it entirely. As I cannot retract their statements myself, then I have no clue as to what action to take next other than escalate things further. Wesley Mouse 04:53, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
Hello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Bleubeatle ( talk) 13:23, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for some very valid advice that you have given in a recent heated debate over AfD's etc. Some of the points that you have raised have really opened my eyes to a broader perspective. One of the main points you made helped me to understand that there could have been a misinterpretation of words written by one user, which lead to a incorrect canvassing caution being issued - I have since retracted that caution in hindsight of your advice. What concerns me now, is that there were a lot of guidance links being referenced in the two AfD discussions, and those links contradicted each other and left matters somewhat confusing - and if they can confuse myself who has been around here for a year now, then they most certainly would confuse a less established editor too. In light of that, I think that I need to open a new discussion at WT:ESC with the aim that all project members are able to find some common ground and avoid similar situations like this arising in the future. Is there any advice that you may be able to provide that would assist me in this? E.g. other areas that would be ideal to get involved to broaden the outlook? Such advice would be truly appreciated. Regards, (Wes) Wesley Mouse 15:30, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
Ahh thanks Zach, those ideas for articles sound like a massive improvement and would prevent premature article creations too, plus unnecessary AfD and the over-heated debates that come with them. I've left a note at the ANI discussion informing people that this matter appears to be resolving itself, and that we are currently discussion proposals on how to better improve the situation including potential project reforms to improve operations.

Hi Status,
"Like a Surgeon" was a different story because it was sent to radio and digital release was never planned. Billboard specifically ran an article regarding the former saying that it was a single. "Sweat" was called a single up until its release where in Billboards chart listings it was called a promotional single. Quite simple really. its not as easy as saying song sent to radio = single. It depends on what was said by the label and/or reliable sources. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 18:19, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

The final is upon us! We are down to our final 8. A massive 573 was our lowest qualifying score; this is higher than the 150 points needed last year and the 430 needed in 2010. Even in 2009, when points were acquired for mainspace edit count in addition to audited content, 417 points secured a place. That leaves this year's WikiCup, by one measure at least, our most competitive ever. Our finalists, ordered by round 4 score, are:
However, we must also say goodbye to the eight who did not make the final, having fallen at the last hurdle:
GreatOrangePumpkin (
submissions),
Ealdgyth (
submissions),
Calvin999 (
submissions),
Piotrus (
submissions),
Toa Nidhiki05 (
submissions),
12george1 (
submissions),
The Bushranger (
submissions) and
1111tomica (
submissions). We hope to see you all next year.
On the subject of next year, a discussion has been opened here. Come and have your say about the competition, and how you'd like it to run in the future. This brainstorming will go on for some time before more focused discussions/polls are opened. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

recently several people edited the page, but you didn't allow anyone to make any changes!!! The article is free. What is wrong with my last edit? I found them perfect... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alxthss ( talk • contribs) 21:18, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
But u don't explain me what's the problem. I made the page look more beautiful with photos and organized. And dates with Enrique I picked out and I just put them with the link to another page! The difference is very insipid. I think you should compromise... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alxthss ( talk • contribs) 21:36, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
The processing of the page is free! I saw some time ago another man who added dates with Enrique too and you cancel it again. And as for the other changes, it's a matter of organization and there is no mistake. In contrast there are many mistakes in the current page! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alxthss ( talk • contribs) 21:45, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

, but you should read the
guide to appealing blocks first.During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Toddst1 ( talk) 17:45, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

Request reason:
Yeah... so, apparently I was edit warring on Dance Again World Tour when I was actually just reinforcing consensus that was previously reached. This user Alxthss ( talk · contribs) kept going against said consensus, and several users asked him to take it to the article's talk page if he wishes for tour dates that are part of a different tour to be included on an article for another tour in which they have no relevance to. I explained it to the user several times on their talk and they basically just told me they would keep adding them regardless. Hahc21 ( talk · contribs) (who also reverted him, but was failed to be blocked during this instance by said administration) left him a message, and he blanked his talk page - completely ignoring it - and then proceed to revert, once again. Hahc21 then left a message to Toddst1 ( talk · contribs) and he blocked both Alxthss and I. I totally expected it. Myself, Alxthss, Hahc21 and Tomica ( talk · contribs) were all involved in this "edit war", yet only me and Alxthss were blocked. So, Hahc21 asked Toddst1 on his talk page if this should be brought to DRN and he just flat out blocked. Okay guys! This is where it gets hilarious! Are you ready for this? The block template states: "During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution." This is where I literally laughed aloud; it was uncontrollable really. There was already consensus reached, yet that user decided to ignore it, and Toddst1 was asked by Hahc21 if it should be taken to dispute resolution. Anyways, as you can see from my block log (which you've probably already seen; and my July archives, if you wanna take a peek) Toddst1 and I have been our fair share of disputes in the past. This is why I wasn't surprised at all he went and blocked me. I know this request is probably against some of the appealing block guidelines (Hahc21 has helped me tone it down the best it can), but I find it to be completely relevant to the topic at hand. I was blocked for "edit warring" to reinforce consensus by an administration who I have had arguments and disagreements in the past. And please, for the love of God, don't treat me like I'm some new user who kept vandalizing articles over and over again and is bitching about the blocking admin. I've been on Wikipedia for a while now, and I know how things work around here (for the most part). I will say that since my last block, which had to do with the way I explained things when reverting other users, I have improved a whole lot. I think I definitely proved that during this dispute, so I do not understand why on Earth I could be blocked. Thanks everyone for taking the time to read this. If you know me, you wouldn't expect anything else.
Accept reason:
Per the discussion on Toddst1's talkpage and below, I'm removing this block. The "invitation" below is a bit over the top, and I too would prefer to see it revoked, but it isn't against policy nor is it a blockable offence. Since it has no bearing on this block, and since the block has already been deemed overly harsh, I see no reason not to lift it. Yunshui 雲 水 07:59, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

If you're going to change the B&B cast list for whatever reasons you seem fit, then do it for the three other soaps that are on-air please. It looks as if you're targeting one soap for whatever your reasons are and it breaks the consistency the pages share. Musicfreak7676 my talk page! 02:10, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi there - I agree the changes you are making to B&B cast are drastic enough they should be discussed on the talk page and/or WP:SOAPS please, at least in the cases that you are deleting a lot of info. Also, I'm not sure if some of the sources are reliable for cast lists (soaps.com, etc). Can we undo the changes that delete info and wait for a discussion to be had? Thanks! Kelly Marie 0812 ( talk) 02:40, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi Statυs, Please explain if I'm wrong, but according to Template:Infobox_television#Attributes, what goes in show_name_2 is: '"Also known as", i.e. other names by which the show is known.' Not how it was known, meaning this is for aliases. These are not titles that can be used interchangeably, but are predecessors to the current one. So, preceded_by: should be used. -- Musdan77 ( talk) 03:25, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

I have reverted your edit (except for the celebrity section that I didn't add back since there was a consensus).
I have taken a look at the talk page of this article. All the users disagree with you, at least when it comes to duration. You can't just decide to radically change an article to your own needs and disregard the wish of the other users. That's not how Wikipedia works.
Please discuss with the other users and reach an agreement with them before making again these kinds of changes on the article. If no consensus can be reached for the duration, the original version will have to prevail. Thank you. Farine ( talk) 22:13, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello Status,
I have noticed your changes to the B&B cast page and I realize you want to change the entire article. I have read the talk page and saw that no consensus was reached. You are more than welcome to use your sandbox in order to rearrange the article. However, until a consensus is reached the article must be reverted back to its original content. This is your only warning on this subject. Thank you. Hurley2000 ( talk) 19:18, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

A single is a song sent to radio stations has a music video and has been confirmed by the record label as such, a promotional single is a single release to digital download and may have a music video to promote a movie, charity, etc. it is not always free from your argument on the discography page and has not been confirmed by the label as an official single off the product if you have no source claiming it is an official single then it is a promotional single. you need to stop acting like you own the taylor swift pages. i noticed you ruining a lot of them and you need to stop. its not right of you to confuse people by posting wrong information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.102.31.108 ( talk) 16:43, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
exactly so zac is wrong in that aspect and so are you tomica. all singles that aren't released to radio are promotional singles, eg. "Today was a Fairytale" was used to promote Valentine's Day, Safe & Sound was used to promote The Hunger Games and i'd like to point this statement in the promotional recordings section:
Since the advent of broad-bandwidth Internet access and professional tools such as iPool or Haulix, the online promotional distribution of music has been established. Record companies make their music available as audio files and use the Internet as a distribution channel. In contrast to the conventional way of distributing promotional recordings, this kind of promotional distribution is faster and cheaper.
Nothing about free there sorry... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.102.31.108 ( talk) 17:19, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
Wrong again Tomica: You are picking and chosing here as the next sentence clearly states: Promos are normally sent directly to broadcasters, such as music radio and television stations, and to tastemakers, such as DJs and music journalists, in advance of the release of commercial editions, in the hope that airplay, reviews, and other forms of exposure will result and stimulate the public's interest in the commercial release. Oops your bad...
Since the advent of broad-bandwidth Internet access and professional tools such as iPool or Haulix, the online promotional distribution of music has been established. Record companies make their music available as audio files and use the Internet as a distribution channel. In contrast to the conventional way of distributing promotional recordings, this kind of promotional distribution is faster and cheaper. Companies specializing in this type of promotion, such as zipDJ, EatDigital and Potboiler Promotions, have become more prominent in recent times.
Cheaper meaning oops you gotta pay....
the act of furthering the growth or development of something; especially : the furtherance of the acceptance and sale of merchandise through advertising, publicity, or discounting
No where in the definition does it say it has to be free.
Review is complete. It's on hold awaiting changes. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 22:07, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
To base something as a promotional single based on outdated promotional cd singles not released to the general public when there is more then one way a single is promotional is wrong based on the simple facts of A) Not all promotional cd singles are real and are fan made to make money. B) all promotional cd singles released are of songs that were released to radio and C) there is other forms of promotional singles. I am sorry but that false consensus is wrong and so is wikipedia. And it is not for you to decide when a discussion is over when wikipedia is placing incorrect information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.82.64.34 ( talk) 22:08, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi there. I saw the edit you made to Deacon Sharpe a while back, saying you were "cleaning up the infobox." First of all, for occupations, all are to be listed. Former occupations are relevant, but the word "former" is not to be used. A lot of soap articles currently violate that term but I'm working on it. And another thing, when a character has starred on two or more soaps, we don't write out the full series title next to their appearances, we use their abbreviation. We link it next to the durations and then just write it in italics next to the appearances. Just thought I'd let you know in case you were going to be editing soap articles. If you have any questions regarding this, please let me know. Thanks! Creativity97 (TALK) 13:45, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
I was hugely confused by your edits. You listed 12 September 2012 as the first release date for "Trouble", when all this stuff was discussed previously it was agreed that the first PURCHASE date is the release date whereas the radio add date is the servicing date. In the UK/Ireland this has even more prominence and airplay has zero direct impact on the charts. A song which is number one on airplay carries no weight as to whether the song is number one on the singles chart as it simply isn't a component of the singles chart. There's no official airplay monitoring. Therefore particularly for where a song's first release is the UK/Ireland the purchase date should be used. As for premieres, well lots of GA/FA articles have the premiere date listed in the release history. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 12:32, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
We're over half way through the final, and so it is less than a month until we know for certain our 2012 WikiCup champion.
Grapple X (
submissions) currently leads, followed by
Sasata (
submissions),
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions) and
Casliber (
submissions). However, we have no one resembling a breakaway leader, and so the competition is a long way from over. Next month's newsletter will feature a list of our winners (who are not necessarily only the finalists) and keep your eyes open for an article on the WikiCup in a future edition of
The Signpost. The leaders are already on a par with last year's winners, but a long way from the huge scores seen in 2010. That said, a repeat of the competition from 2010 seems unlikely.
It is good to see that three-quarters of our finalists have already scored bonus points this round. This shows that, contrary to criticism that the WikiCup has received in the past, the competition does not merely incentivise the writing of trivial articles; instead, our top competitors are still spending their time contributing to high-importance articles, and bringing them to a high standard. This does a great service to the encyclopedia and its readers. Thank you, and good work!
The planning for next year's WikiCup is ongoing. Some straw polls have been opened concerning the scoring, and you can now sign up for next year's competition. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hey Zac! Sorry for not helping around, college has been keeping me busy.

Please explain to me a logical reason why that template needs to be atop the page. That page has only been edited 7 times today and nothing is major. The template itself says to remove it if the page hasn't been edited "in several hours", and you just want it to stay on the page permanently? That template is used when a user is making a major overhaul over a short period of time to avoid edit conflicts. It also says "If you are the editor who added this template, please be sure to remove it or replace it with 'Underconstruction' between editing sessions", which you neglect to do. (not that it really matters because no "major" edit appears to be happening) NYSM talk page 23:54, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

What do you think of the snippets. I think its about 3/5. Some really strong songs but some not so. It needed more features I think. There's clearly something missing on some of the songs e.g. "Fireflies". Don't like the credits (the way they've been released!), haha I know it sounds petty but I hope they appear better in the album booklet! — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 00:04, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for trying to keep Wikipedia free of vandalism. However, one or more edits you labeled as
vandalism, such as the edit at
List of The Bold and the Beautiful cast members, are not considered vandalism under Wikipedia policy. Wikipedia has a stricter definition of the word "vandalism" than common usage, and mislabeling edits as vandalism can
discourage newer editors. Please read

the 'm' is redundant when he is already listed as her 'spouse', and yes i'm quite aware that 2012 is the present, but when people read it in a 1 year or 5 years from now, it won't be 2012 anymore, leaving present on there is an open ended way of saying they are still together.

Hi Zac! We don't really do much together here anymore but I just decided to give you this barnstar because of all the rescuing you have done to many articles including Jennifer Lopez-related articles. You saved many and even turned them into amazing articles. Your work on Jennifer Lopez: Feelin' So Good is a great example of this. You've taught me a lot, and I really appreciate you. Ar re 04:36, 20 October 2012 (UTC) |
Hey, I saw this [File:Jennifer Lopez 12, 2012.jpg]. Do you think it's good for her info-box? I think it looks less awkward without her mouth open, and we can see all of her facial features. What do u think? Ar re 12:00, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
Really you were?, I wouldn't have expected you to create an article like that. :) I figured I would do it because the actor chart was removed from Burton's main page, because it was too large. I have been watching Tim Burton movies all this month, he's one of my favorite film directors. Whatever edits you want to make to the article, feel free. :) QuasyBoy (talk) 20:03, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
Would you like to nominate the article for FLC with me? (Of course, when it's done.) A better lead and recurring crew is all that appears to be needed. Zac ( talk · contribs) 20:40, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
OK, so I saw Alice. Visually its a great film, but besides that, there's not much going for it. Its just OK, to me. As for Dark Shadows, its alright, its a pretty typical Tim Burton/Johnny Depp collaboration. If you like their previous films together, you'll like it, but its nothing special. Now that I have seen every Tim Burton feature film, Here are my top 10 favorites of his. 1. Edward Scissorhands, 2. Big Fish, 3. Ed Wood, 4. Beetlejuice, 5. Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, 6. Sleepy Hollow, 7. Mars Attacks!, 8. Batman, 9. Pee-wee's Big Adventure and 10. Corpse Bride.

Hi. Persona's are key to careers. If they don't have sources, why don't you TRY to source them instead of removing them? That's lazy. Also, years are the years they were recorded, not released. That's kind of common sense. -- MrIndustry ( talk) 20:12, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

I did specify why I was removing that info from Britney Spears discography page, more specifically from her "Compilation albums" section on her Discography page, I will paste here exactly what I wrote in justification for the edit: "This section was a piece of s*** with many unofficial, unnecessary and uncalled for albums listed. She only has four official compilations/remixes albums, GH:MP, B In The Mix Vols 1 and 2 and The Singles Collection,", that section has boxes and special editions of albums which are completely a waste of space and 200% unnecessary information. A response on my page will be highly appreciated. Thank you!

Not that it matters that much I guess but I think the list that you are basing all of the songwriting/producer credit off of isn't 100% correct. I think BMI is much more of a reliable source and Jamie Hartman himself tweeted that he co-wrote Army of Me with Phil Bentley, which matches the BMI listing. http://twitter.com/jamiehartman/status/261220229043073025 His account is verified as well. + a second tweet he made says the Tracklacers at least co-produced the track yet they are no where to be found on these supposed "Sony" credits and neither is Phil Bentley.

The 2012 WikiCup has come to a close; congratulations to
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions), our 2012 champion! Cwmhiraeth joins our exclusive club of previous winners:
Dreamafter (2007),
jj137 (2008),
Durova (2009),
Sturmvogel 66 (2010) and
Hurricanehink (2011). Our final standings were as follows:
Prizes for first, second, third and fourth will be awarded, as will prizes for all those who reached the final eight. Every participant who scored in the competition will receive a ribbon of participation. In addition to the prizes based on placement, the following special prizes will be awarded based on high performance in particular areas of content creation. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, the prize is awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round.
Awards will be handed out in the coming days; please bear with us! This year's competition also saw fantastic contributions in all rounds, from newer Wikipedians contributing their first good or featured articles, right up to highly experienced Wikipedians chasing high scores and contributing to topics outside of their usual comfort zones. It would be impossible to name all of the participants who have achieved things to be proud of, but well done to all of you, and thanks! Wikipedia has certainly benefited from the work of this year's WikiCup participants.
Next year's WikiCup will begin in January. Currently, discussions and polls are open, and all contributions are welcome. You can also sign up for next year's competition. There will be no further newsletters this year, although brief notes may be sent out in December to remind everyone about the upcoming competition. It's been a pleasure to work with you all, and we hope to see you all in January! J Milburn ( talk • email) and The ed17 ( talk • email) 00:23, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi. In response to your message to me earlier, WP:TVPLOT suggests that, in a short summary outside of the episode article itself (if there is one or not, doesn't matter), it should be from "100–200 words for each, with upwards of 350 words for complex storylines", it doesn't really matter if there is an episode article or not. If it has an actual episode article, then it should be more words says that same guideline, but in this case, it should be "100–200 words for each, with upwards of 350 words for complex storylines", as already said. "The plot summary is an overview of the episode's main events, so avoid minutiae like dialogue, scene-by-scene breakdowns, individual jokes and technical detail" says that guideline if it helps, and don't hide spoilers per WP:SPOILERS (just in case it is). In your list, most seem good, but some are too long, such as episode 22 summary. I'd be inclined to give a peer review, and I thank you for modelling it of off my list. I have made minor changes, as you probably know. Cheers, TBr and ley 21:24, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

I have only noticed your edits twice recently and twice you have removed perfectly valid content and sources. Here you removed a huge chunk of content from - Home (Phillip Phillips song), claiming that it is unsourced when in fact some of those deleted content are in fact sourced, the content in the Critical reception was sourced to here. It looks like you never even look at the source before deleting it. If the reference wasn't done properly, then there is the citation need tag and other tags you can use. Here in Taylor Swift discography you revert sales number from perfectly valid sources, without giving proper rationale why that is not acceptable and that another outdated one would be preferable. Roughstock is a perfectly valid source, it is not less reliable than Billboard, they get their numbers from the same source which is SoundScan. Please try to engage in editing in a more positive manner. Hzh ( talk) 01:20, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading
File:Rihanna Diamonds World Tour.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, it is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.
You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot ( talk) 04:27, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

" Don't take any decisions when you are sad (frustrated, depressed...)" - Hey Status! I've to admit that I'm a lurker and that is what I do half the time on Wiki. I've seen you around and you've been generally an awesome editor. Your work at GAs and FLs is remarkable and I value them. I also respect your decision to leave but I'd strongly suggest to reconsider this mate. It is undoubtedly a loss to the community if you leave. People get in conflicts and later move on, some editors might criticize or discourage you but giving up isn't the only option; just have to keep faith in yourself. I'd not like to add another name on my userpage so do have some second thoughts about this. All the best with real life! TheSpecialUser TSU 15:42, 4 December 2012 (UTC) |

Status, I am very sorry that you are considering retirement and I hope that you will have the courage to stay with Wikipedia. If you do decide to leave, I respect, but you are a very good editor, with a number of featured articles, featured lists, and good articles in knowledge. Please don't leave criticisms and conflicts hurt you, however. So please enjoy some Tim Hortons cookies from Canada. They're delicious, especially with a nice hot chocolate along with it.

You guys are too sweet (just like the yummy food you've given me). It's very hard, with the loss in my family, and the stress from my final year of school, users also driving me wild; pestering and attacking me here on Wikipedia just becomes too much. I'm an emotional wreck right now, so try not to take me too seriously. I'll be here, not a little, not a lot; just here. I don't know how long that will be, but your kind words makes it feel that much better. When people literally tell you that you're a "blind", "ignorant" and inexperienced user, who, shouldn't have any user rights, you kind of lose faith in not only your contributions, but also "why do I even bother?". And with everything else going on, you know. Statυs ( talk) 23:39, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

How are you? I would, like several others, like to send my condolences out to you and your whole family, as I appreciate that this may be a difficult time for you. I am mainly sending you this message as I implore you to ignore Till's incredibly insensitive and unkind comments about you ("He isn't worth the time or effort to put up with" and telling everyone "don't feel guilty because a "retirement consideration" notice has been put up"). Although I am aware of the history between the two of you, he has clearly not recognized that you are likely to be sensitive at this time, and should not be provoking you into dispute again at this time. You are both great editors, but he's crossed a line here. Again, please do not let him get to you, and certainly don't try and provoke him back.
If he's seriously pissing you off, I strongly recommend that you take a Wikibreak (as the ANIs don't seem to be helping) just to clear your mind of what is, in all honesty, not that important in the general scheme of things – there's life outside 4 million web pages. I don't want to seem intrusive, but I despise this sort of insensitivity from people and will not stand aside to simply watch this happen to you.
You've been a great editor, but if you choose to retire I completely understand. I hope these words are wise! (Oh, and the brownie was nice.) I Am Rufus • Conversation is a beautiful thing. 21:33, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Your comments on various talk pages are becoming disruptive, and I would advise you to take a break and tone it down a bit.
More specifically, your attempts at baiting another editor into a reaction at User talk:Malleus Fatuorum, and then slyly removing your baiting comments after you've induced such a reaction, is rankly deceitful and disruptive. As has been pointed out to you by another editor on that page, a strikeout will suffice if you wish to indicate that you've withdrawn the comment. If you remove it again, I will block you for disruptive editing.
I understand that you're a good content contributor and work well with articles. I advise that you return to the article namespace and continue your work there, and leave this all this Malleus nonsense behind. Basalisk inspect damage⁄ berate 06:21, 31 December 2012 (UTC)

It's happened before. In the industry now, with the likes of Adele, Rihanna, and Lady Gaga, she'll have a tough time competing. Commercially that is. I can't understand how Rihanna is so successful on charts. Critically speaking, people will have very high expectations for Madge, and will find themselves disappointed. C'mon, she has had her fair share of criticism and commercial failure. After the negative reviews for W/.E., who knows. She's gotta outdo herself.

I've declined your speedy deletion requests for Hurts Like Heaven and Us Against The World (Coldplay Song). The A3 speedy deletion criterion clearly states that only pages without ANY content are eligible for speedy deletion under it, and each song clearly had content- in fact, they had at least two coherent sentences each.-- Slon02 ( talk) 04:31, 22 January 2012 (UTC)

With the thin level of support so far, I don't think the FLC is ready for a result, unfortunately. For now, I'm leaving it up there to allow it the chance to be reviewed further. Be patient and I'm sure things will work out. Also, please consider reviewing one or two of the lists yourself. The fewer lists on FLC, the less competition your list has for reviews!

Hi Status, I've requested a peer review for the above article, a television programme, because I'd like to nominate it for promotion to G.A. status.

hey..just wanted to let you know i changed JLo's infobox again... My reasoning was this: The actress info-box does nothing but list her family or whatever, which isn't needed. The music box does a bit more, it says her label and genre which isn't a far big difference from the other one. 50% of the article (or more) does focus on her singing career. :\ please don't change it back, hope you know where I'm coming from; plus its been that way a long time... :) Good luck with your school! x Soap Jar 10:20, 31 January 2012 (UTC)
WikiCup 2012 is off to a flying start. At the time of writing, we have 112 contestants; comparable to last year, but slightly fewer than 2010.
Signups will remain open for another week, after which time they will be closed for this year. Our currrent far-away leader is
Grapple X (
submissions), due mostly to his work on a slew of good articles about
The X-Files; there remain many such articles waiting to be reviewed at
good article candidates. Second place is currently held by
Ruby2010 (
submissions), whose points come mostly from good articles about television episodes, although good article reviews, did you knows and an article about a baroness round out the score. In third place is
Jivesh boodhun (
submissions), who has scored 200 points for his work on a single featured article, as well as points for work on others, mostly in the area of pop music. In all, nine users have 100 or more points. However, at the other end of the scale, there are still dozens of participants who are yet to score. Please remember to update your submission pages promptly!
The 64 highest scoring participants will advance to round 2 in a month's time. There, they will be split into eight random groups of eight. The score needed to reach the next round is not at all clear; last year, 8 points guaranteed a place. The year before, 20.
A few participants and their work warrant a mention for achieving "firsts" in this competition.
We are yet to see any featured lists, featured topics or good topics, but this is unsurprising; firstly, the nomination processes with each of these can take some time, and, secondly, it can take a considerable amount of time to work content to this level. In a similar vein, we have seen only one featured article. The requirement that content must have been worked on this year to be eligible means that we did not expect to see these at the start of the competition. No points have been claimed for featured portals or pictures, but these are not content types which are often claimed; the former has never made a big impact on the WikiCup, while the latter has not done so since 2009's competition.
A quick rules clarification before the regular notices: If you are concerned that another user is claiming points inappropriately, please contact a judge to take a look at the article. Competitors policing one another can create a bad atmosphere, and may lead to inconsistencies and mistakes. Rest assured that we, the judges, are making an effort to check submissions, but it is possible that we will miss something. On a loosely related note: If you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, or by email. Good luck!

Hi there. Well i was wondering if you could upload the pics..like you said yesterday..if its not a hassle :). Also, i want to make a "In the media" section on Jen's main page. I feel that the fashion thing and the public image is too weak a subject to be included on another page, and its not that long either; however i think the personal life page is going good, and should be moved to Personal life of Jennifer Lopez and scrap the public image thing. I was also thinking of making a "Legacy" (about her milestones, influences on other people, her acknowledgement like the Walk on Hollywood etc and her Legacy within the Spanish community) even though there isn't a lot to write. What are ya thinking? Please get back to me ;) Soap Jar 07:47, 2 February 2012 (UTC)

Hey, i suggest (if you're up to it) we work on her Awards and Nominations page (J.Lo). It's in a bad shape and we need to source everything and make it as reliable as possible. Hey; what do you think about Legacy & Public image? I worked a bit on that :D It was hard to find stuff for legacy considering she isn't a HUGE legend but i added what i could about her influence over Spanish and blahblahblah lol :D i was also thinking of adding an "In The Media" section about her rankings etc but im not sure. I think her page is on the path. Also hope you're not mad at me...noticed you didn't respond to one of my inquiries the other day :\ JLo is really my main focus on wiki...if im being a hog with the article please tell me, i can return to editing soaps lol. Also, because the 2010-present section is kinda long, can we make a 2010-11: Love? American Idol and comeback / then - 2011-present: Return to film and greatest hits album. What do you think?

Why do you list recording artist last as her profession (please answer). I feel it should be listed second. She is getting a star on the walk just for singing .... i think its second behind (if not equal) to acting. Soap Jar 01:04, 5 February 2012 (UTC)

The only issue I have with your suggestion is that Madonna's website/Facebook/etc. never confirmed that the 15 tracks originally posted were all for the standard edition - just that those were 15 of the songs that were appearing on the album in some form. The URL for the standard edition art may have 15 instead of 12 in the URL, but typically posts like that won't edit the URL if there are edits made unless a change is deliberately made to the URL itself.

Look at my talk page! OMG! I swear I don't get on here much and I get threatened yet again! [1] Does that look reliable to you? I've never seen it used on here and I noticed the music video on it is uploaded by a fan on Youtube. So it's very questionable to me and I keep trying to point it out when I revert it and now I'm getting this
Your recent editing history shows that you are in danger of breaking the three-revert rule, or that you may have already broken it. An editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Breaking the three-revert rule often leads to a block. If you wish to avoid being blocked, instead of reverting, please use the article's talk page to discuss the changes; work towards a version that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection. You may still be blocked for edit warring even if you do not exceed the technical limit of the three-revert rule if your behavior indicates that you intend to continue to revert repeatedly. 198.102.153.2 (talk) 17:47, 7 February 2012 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Jennifer Lopez filmography, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Creator ( check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Round 1 is already over! The 64 highest scorers have progressed to round 2. Our highest scorer was
Grapple X (
submissions), again thanks mostly to a swathe of good articles on The X-Files. In second place was
Tigerboy1966 (
submissions), thanks an impressive list of did you knows about racehorses. Both scored over 400 points. Following behind with over 300 points were
Ruby2010 (
submissions),
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions),
Miyagawa (
submissions) and
Casliber (
submissions). February also saw the competition's first featured list:
List of colleges and universities in North Dakota, from
Ruby2010 (
submissions). At the other end of the scale, 11 points was enough to secure a place in this round, and some contestants with 10 points made it into the round on a tiebreaker. This is higher than the 8 points that were needed last year, but lower than the 20 points required the year before. The number of points required to progress to round 3 will be significantly higher.
The remaining contestants have been split into 8 pools of 8, named A through H. Round two will finish in two months time on 28 April, when the two highest scorers in each pool, as well as the next 16 highest scorers, will progress to round 3. The pools were entirely random, so while some pools may end up being more competitive than others, this is by chance rather than design.
The judges would like to point out two quick rules reminders. First, any content promoted during the interim period (that is, on or after 27 February) is eligible for points in round 2. Second, any content worked on significantly this year is eligible for points if promoted in this round. On a related note, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews.

Its not gonna be flooded with info, obviously, but ill source it good and add all the right info :) Nearly done the Love & Light page :).. hope you don't think they (perfumes) are too irrelevant :\ its something im desperate to do for JLo's pages :) and its a great reference to have those pages and is of public interest...what do u think?

It was written in a highly promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Although you went to some trouble to provide references, such essentially spammy claims cannot be sourced to dubiously neutral sites. You need to provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines. Even then, you would need to write an encyclopaedia article rather than would could well have passed for a publicity release.
It's a good thing to have articles on this sort of topic, which is poorly represented, but for a commercial product you need to take great care with neutrality and sourcing Jimfbleak - talk to me? 17:14, 2 March 2012 (UTC)

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article List of products endorsed by Jennifer Lopez is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of products endorsed by Jennifer Lopez until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. TucsonDavidU.S.A. 06:23, 3 March 2012 (UTC)

There is a guideline at Wikipedia:Naming conventions (capitalization) which states in an article about foreign-language names: "If the article is about a work in a foreign language (such as a book or other written work, movie, album, or song), using the capitalization found in most English language reliable sources is recommended". I don't know how I or how the consensus to use WP:ALBUMCAPS overlooked this part. I really apologized if I have caused any inconviences. Erick ( talk) 07:34, 20 March 2012 (UTC)
I am generally in favour of deleting implausible redirects but when I saw your speedy tag on Como Ama una Mujer, I was shocked. By all means tag it for deletion but do not do so until you have fixed all the incoming links from the (article) namespace. Also, please do not re-instate {{User talk:Status/Header}} on this page until you have fixed the page widening that it causes.

Hi Zach. I hope you know that the US is the only country that counts airplay and streaming while compiling its chart. In other words, only a radio release in the US is valid unless a certain remix of the song concerned is sent to radios. Jivesh1205 ( Talk) 10:21, 22 March 2012 (UTC)

We are over half way through the second round of this year's WikiCup and things are going well!
Grapple X (
submissions), of Pool B, is our highest overall scorer thanks to his prolific writings on television and film. In second place is Pool H's
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions), thanks primarily to work on biological articles, especially in
marine biology and
herpetology. Third place goes to Pool E's
Casliber (
submissions), who also writes primarily on biology (including
ornithology and
botany) and has already submitted two featured articles this round. Of the 63 contestants remaining, 15 (just under a quarter) have over 100 points this round. However, 25 are yet to score. Please remember to update your submission pages promptly. 32 contestants, the top two from each pool and the 16 next-highest scorers, will advance to round 3.
Congratulations to
Matthewedwards (
submissions), whose impressive
File:Wacht am Rhein map (Opaque).svg became the competition's first featured picture. Also, congratulations to
12george1 (
submissions), who claimed good topic points, our first contestant this year to do so, for his work on
Wikipedia:Featured topics/1982 Atlantic hurricane season. This leaves featured topics and featured portals as the only sources of points not yet utilised. However, as
recent statistics from
Miyagawa (
submissions) show, no source has yet been utilised this competition to the same extent it has been previously!
It has been observed that the backlogs at good article candidates are building up again. While the points for good article reviews will be remaining constant, any help that can be offered keeping the backlog down would be appreciated. On a related note, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Are you even going to explain why a picture of Mariah Carey is placed prominently on a song by Jennifer Lopez? Or does the reader have to work that out? Currently this article shows more of Carey, who had absolutely nothing to do with it, than Lopez. Can you also explain why we even need this picture? Why L.A. Reid and not Pitbull, or Redone, or Casper Smart, or even Ryan Seacrest? Reid is just a suit, no-one cares what he looks like, especially not with Carey. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 14:07, 1 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi. I'm not sure about this "accolades" thing.. if see you go here an accolade is only something that she has won, and nominations don't count as accolades. It doesn't really matter if its shorter. Sorry, i'm not a bit..hm i don't agree with the title. Notice e.g. here Janet (album) when they list accolades, they only list the awards won. Please get back to me. I just wanna make the meaning of the word clear :) As in her being named "world's most beautiful women" in a accolade (honor) but Grammy nomination isn't because she didn't win anything..

Deliberately removed sourced material in favor of unsourced material, multiple times does constitute as disruptive editing, per Wikipedia policy. If the template chooses to use the word "vandalize", that is up to the decision of the policymakers on Wikipedia, take grievances up with them. The user has been warned three times for the same actions and I am acting accordingly. You may want to take the time to research certain situations before you abruptly interject your "opinion".

Round 2 of this year's WikiCup is over, and so we are down to our final 32, in what could be called our quarter-finals. The two highest scorers from each pool, as well as the next 16 highest scorers overall, have entered round 3, while 30 participants have been eliminated. Pool B's
Grapple X (
submissions) remains our top scorer with over 700 points; he continues to gain high numbers of points for his good articles on
The X-Files, but also
Millennium and other subjects. He has also gained points for a good topic, a featured list, multiple good article reviews and several did you knows. Pool E's
Casliber (
submissions) was second, thanks primarily to his biology articles, with Pool H's
Muboshgu (
submissions) coming in third, with an impressive 46 did you knows, mostly on the subject of baseball. Casliber and Cwmhiraeth both scored over 600 points. Pools E and H proved our most successful, with each seeing 5 members qualify for round 3, while Pools C and D were the least, with each seeing only 3 reach round 3. However, it was Pool G which saw the lowest scoring, with a little under 400 points combined; Pool H, the highest scoring group, saw over triple that score.
65 points was the lowest qualifying score for round 3; significantly higher than the 11 required to enter round 2, and also higher than the 41 required to reach round 3 last year. However, in 2010, 100 points were needed to secure a place in round 3. 16 will progress to round 4. In round 3, 150 points was the 16th highest score, though, statistically, people tend to up their game a little in later rounds. Last year, 76 points secured a place, while in 2010, a massive 250 points were needed. Guessing how many points will be required is not easy. We still have not seen any featured portals or topics this year, but, on the subject of less common content types, a small correction needs to be made to the previous newsletter:
File:Wacht am Rhein map (Opaque).svg, our first featured picture, was the work of both
Matthewedwards (
submissions) and
Grandiose (
submissions), the latter of whom has also gone on to score with
File:Map of the Battle of Guam, 1944.svg. Bonus points also continue to roll in; this round,
Ealdgyth (
submissions) earned triple points for her good articles on
William the Conqueror and the
Middle Ages, Casliber and Cwmhiraeth both earned triple points for their work on
Western Jackdaw, now a good article,
Dana Boomer (
submissions) earned triple points for her work on
lettuce and work by
Stone (
submissions) to ready
antimony for good article status earned him triple points.
Jarry1250 (
submissions) managed to expand
Vitus Bering far enough for a did you know, which was also worth triple points. All of these highly important topics featured on 50 or more Wikipedias at the start of the year.
An article on the WikiCup in the Wikimedia Blog, "
Improving Wikipedia with friendly competition", was posted at the end of April. This may be of interest to those who are signed up to this newsletter, as well as serving as another way to draw attention to our project. Also, we would again like to thank
Jarry1250 (
submissions) and
Stone (
submissions), for continued help behind the scenes. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on

A mid-importance article supported by WikiProject Actors and Filmmakers that was reviewed by Version 1.0 Editorial Team and selected for Version 0.7 and subsequent release versions. The article has come a long way from a fan boy mish mash to a fair enough GA. Now is the time to take it to the next level. Currently it's going through another peer review. Please, lend a hand.

I am considering rolling back my recent edit on it as a dispute on the 1998 re-entry of "Put a Little Holiday in Your Heart" seems debatable to me as the re-entry is actually 20 hits lower then it's 1997, it dropped from 51 to 71. So I am of course comparing it to " Sparks Fly" where it re-entered the Billboard Hot 100 but it did not peak as high as a single as it did in 2010 when it was not released but I just wanted your opinion should both entries be posted or just one? Swifty* talk 21:43, 31 May 2012 (UTC)
We're halfway through round 3 (or the quarter finals, if you prefer) and things are running smoothly. We're seeing very high scoring; as of the time of writing, the top 16 all have over 90 points. This has already proved to be more competative than this time last year- in 2011, 76 points secured a place, while in 2010, a massive 250 was the lowest qualifying score. People have also upped their game slightly from last round, which is to be expected as we approach the end of the competition. Leading Pool A is
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions), whose points have mostly come from a large number of did you knows on marine biology. Pool B's leader,
Grapple X (
submissions), is for the first time not our highest scorer at the time of newsletter publication, but his good articles on The X-Files and Millenium keep him in second place overall.
Miyagawa (
submissions) leads Pool C, our quietest pool, with content in a variety of areas on a variety of topics. Pool D is led by
Casliber (
submissions), our current overall leader. Nearly half of Casliber's points come from his triple-scored
Western Jackdaw, which is now a featured article.
This round has seen an unusually high number of featured lists, with nearly one in five remaining participants claiming one, and one user,
Muboshgu (
submissions), claiming two. Miyagawa's featured list,
1936 Summer Olympics medal table, was even awarded double points. By comparison, good article reviews seem to be playing a smaller part, and featured topics portals remain two content-types still unutilised in this competition. Other than that, there isn't much to say! Things are coming along smoothly. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on
Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on

A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Justin Bieber on Twitter is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Justin Bieber on Twitter until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article.
Informing you of this nomination because of your previous participation in the Justin Bieber on Twitter merge into Justin Bieber discussion.-- LauraHale ( talk) 03:03, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
I don't think products/endorsements should go into her main section because there is already a lot of information. Need i talk about her impact like bringing back Celeb endorsements etc? And recently she was just named #1 by UK; where does all of that go? Whatever...is there any chance of bringing it back or have you made up your mind? :\ If it was too long, it could have just been trimmed, the info that wasn't as relevant could be removed. I'm not really comparing but the Beyoncé Knowles article includes bio, artistry, legacy, philanthropy and other ventures (Which is basically products & endorsements)...and that article is a GA.. Sorry for the length of this message, i would just like you to maybe re-consider a little bit. If the article is too long i could begin to trim the legacy & artistry section?

I'd like to know how removing unsourced content: "The song was originally going to be released as the second single from the album; however, it was later announced that "Hard" would become the second single instead, whilst "Wait Your Turn" served as the promotional single" and having users who WP:IDONTLIKEIT (the fact that the song was released as a single) revert me, and reverting back twice as they had no premise to revert equals me being blocked. Statυs ( talk) 22:47, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
For everyone screaming "unfair", I'll ask the first, obvious question: where is the source that confirms this song is a single, anyway? I'll be sympathetic if someone can show me that Status was preventing someone from replacing well-sourced information with unsourced information, but I can't look at the article and see that.— Kww( talk) 23:01, 1 July 2012 (UTC)
I will always provide a source or relevant policy when reverting a second or greater time. Statυs ( talk) 00:43, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
A tag has been placed on Deseo (fragrance), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing no content to the reader. Please note that external links, "See also" section, book reference, category tag, template tag, interwiki link, rephrasing of the title, or an attempt to contact the subject of the article don't count as content. Moreover, please add more verifiable sources, not only 3rd party sources. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content. You may wish to consider using a Wizard to help you create articles - see the Article Wizard.
Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, contest the deletion by clicking on the button that looks like this: which appears inside of the speedy deletion (
{{db-...}}
) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit
the article's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

This time on If You Had My Love and yes, you are blocked again for resuming that behavior immediately upon release of your previous block for edit warring. Toddst1 ( talk) 04:11, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
"Editing restriction: 'I will always provide a source or relevant policy when reverting a second or greater time.'", which I did [10] Statυs ( talk) 04:26, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
People seem to be missing that Status voluntarily agreed to provide a source or policy reference whenever reverting for the second or greater time. That restriction is now in his block log. There's no doubt that without that restriction this block would be difficult to justify. With that restriction, though, it makes a lot more sense.— Kww( talk) 19:22, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Status ( block log • active blocks • global blocks • contribs • deleted contribs • filter log • creation log • change block settings • unblock • checkuser ( log))
Request reason:
I was blocked for edit warring on If You Had My Love, when I didn't actually break any polices. A user added an unsourced genre to the article, and I reverted, telling them to add a reliable source if they wanted to add a genre. This is per my editing restriction: "I will always provide a source or relevant policy when reverting a second or greater time." Statυs ( talk) 05:22, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Decline reason:
Procedural decline: block has expired PhantomSteve/ talk| contribs\ 19:31, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
If you want to make any further unblock requests, please read the guide to appealing blocks first, then use the {{ unblock}} template again. If you make too many unconvincing or disruptive unblock requests, you may be prevented from editing this page until your block has expired. Do not remove this unblock review while you are blocked.
Note to reviewing admin(s): Under almost any other circumstance, a second revert such as Status performed would not be grounds for blocking. In this particular circumstance, performing his second almost identical revert - immediately upon early release of his previous block for edit warring under very similar circumstances is continued disruptive editing and clear evidence that this editor does not know what edit warring is, why it is considered disruptive and what the acceptable exceptions are. Toddst1 ( talk) 06:09, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Note to reviewing admin(s): The block pattern of Toddst1 is currently being discussed at Administrators noticeboard. Statυs ( talk) 06:21, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Unblock would be appropriate as explained here Nobody Ent 02:21, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
@Kww: I consider that asking a user to provide a reference supporting a specific genre may create some sort of conflict of interest, since that user may find a source only providing the genre they want to be included. As you are aware of all this sourcing genre debate, the fact that I asked the user to provide a source to cover his assumptions that the song was indeed R&B is a reasonable request, because different sources says different things. Statυs ( talk) 03:10, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
For any admin who happens to be looking at this unblock request and wondering if its worth it now, just because there is only a half and hour left of my block does not mean that it is no longer relevant or stands. It is ridiculous that no one has reviewed my unblock request (accept or deny). This was an unjust block, as many users have stated on this page. Statυs ( talk) 03:32, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Apologies for the lateness of this letter; our usual bot wasn't working. We are now entering round 4, our semi-finals, and have our final 16. A score of 243 was required to reach this round; significantly more than 2011's 76 points, and only a little behind 2010's 250 points. By comparison, last year, 150 points in round 4 secured a place in the final; in 2010, 430 were needed. Commiserations to Pool A's
igordebraga (
submissions), who scored 242 points, missing out on a place in the round by a whisker. However, congratulations to Pool B's
Grapple X (
submissions), whose television articles have brought him another round victory. Pool A's
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions) came second overall, with an impressive list of biological did you knows, good articles and featured articles. Third overall was Pool D's
Muboshgu (
submissions), with a long list of contibutions, mostly relating to baseball. Of course, with the points resetting every round, the playing field has been levelled. The most successful Pool was Pool D, which saw seven into the final round. Pool B saw four, C saw three and Pool A saw only the two round leaders.
A quick note about other competitions taking place on Wikipedia which may be of interest. There are 13 days remaining in the June-July GAN backlog elimination drive, but it is not too late to take part.

While the WikiCup awards points for audited content on any subject, The Core Contest about is raw article improvement, focussing heavily on the most important articles on Wikipedia.

Why exactly is this still open when it was confirmed to be another user (Hahc21) not noticing they were logged out of their account? Statυs ( talk) 15:54, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
In light of recent events, I find this something I must do. I have always been aware that I am not irreplaceable, and have always shown pride in the fact that I have been an upstanding editor who has made good contributions to the project. After two blocks, although unjustified, I can no longer say that is true. I feel beaten down, to say the least. I had originally added the {{ retired}} template to this talk page, but then I remembered all the projects that I had started and had not completed. Once my block expires, I will finish up the remaining projects I have under development and take a leave of absence from Wikipedia. I don't know for how long that may be; think of it as an extended Wikibreak. I may end up never coming back. It will be hard at first, as I have been an active member of the English Wikipedia for almost two years now, but I will try my best to stay away.
I wish you all the best of luck with your endeavors.
Due to the strong support I have been getting from users and seeing that I would actually be missed, the above is no longer accurate. I still, however, am considering retirement. I will still continue to edit regularly, just not as much. Statυs ( talk) 05:18, 3 July 2012 (UTC)
Sorry to see you go. This whole dispute has been stupid and it sucks that they forced it to this level. :( Toa Nidhiki05 16:08, 2 July 2012 (UTC)

Awwh it sucks to see you go :( You've helped Wikipedia so much, it really won't be the same without you!-- (CA)Giacobbe ( talk) 16:38, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
This is quite disgusting. You've been an incredible friend and good editor and watch you leave is very sad. I'm praying for you to stay, but it's your desicion at the end. I'll be in contact with you from the outside ans we've been doing. This situation discouraged me either from editing on Wikipedia, and i think I will extend my Wikibreak for a longer period. Cheers! — Hahc 21 18:40, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
...how both I and
User:Till I Go Home get our
Rollback rights removed, yet
User:Hahc21 does not? Let me explain.
User:Toddst1 left Till I Go Home a
long message on their talk page stating that "Rollback requires a thorough understanding of
WP:EW,
WP:3RR and to some extent
WP:BLP all of which you are clearly having problems with." He left a note stating: "Editor's repeated statements have made it clear that s/he doesn't understand what an EW is and isn't, so removing RB. This may be restored later if the user demonstrates a full understanding of the policy." Now, Rollback does not require any of the sort. The page states: "Administrators may revoke the rollback feature or issue a block in response to a persistent failure to explain reverts, regardless of the means used. However, they should allow the editor an opportunity to explain their use of rollback before taking any action – there may be justification of which the administrator is not aware (such as reversion of a banned user). Similarly, editors who edit war may lose the privilege regardless of the means used to edit war." Till I Go Home has not done anything of the sort, and should not have his rollback rights removed. Similarity, Toddst1 has accused Hahc21 of not the same issues, but has not removed his rights. My rollback rights were also removed for "repeated blocks for edit warring, not understanding EW policy and exceptions". "not understanding EW policy and exceptions" is not a valid reason to remove rollback rights, as I previously stated above. He is, however, still entitled to remove the rights per: "Similarly, editors who edit war may lose the privilege regardless of the means used to edit war." But he is still bound by this: "However, they should allow the editor an opportunity to explain their use of rollback before taking any action." which in this case would be normal undoing. It has also been disputed the fact that what I had done was even an EW, which has been discussed above.
User:Gimmetoo explained this situation perfectly: "This is a good example of the problem of inconsistent standards and punishment. Not everyone agrees there was even edit warring." Toddst1 blocking me because he felt I was edit warring isn't technically wrong, as Gimmetoo also stated, but him then taking away my user rights is, especially if I hadn't even used the feature during the "edit war". And also considering I rarely have even used the tool.
Statυs (
talk) 21:41, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
Since Todd doesn't seem to want to leave a response here, which he is clearly aware of, as he has asking other user to comment to another user about something they said here, I will be forced to bring this up in, yet another, ANI report. Edits to this section can still be made until I am unblocked, in which time I will be moving this to a appropriate section of Wikipedia where all can see. I'm really interested in seeing what others think of this. Statυs ( talk) 00:47, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

Wow, that came as a surprise when I saw it. I should hope that you give that idea a lot of thought before jumping too quickly. I personally think you do some very awesome work around here that often incorporates a lot of really good, straight forward common sense. When I stumble upon music articles that are really messed up, I often use your last edit in history as a calibration tool for figuring out what went wrong it after you left. I trust your judgement and knowledge in the area of modern pop music, and you're the user I'd most likely come to if I needed advice or a second opinion in that particular subject area. I urge you to try hard to shrug off whatever is currently bothering you, stand up straight, and carry on with what you do best. I look forward to seeing more of you in the months to come. :) -- WikHead ( talk) 22:10, 3 July 2012 (UTC)

I reinstated your removed comments at this AfD with a strikethrough, bit I see you have removed them again. Please note that Wikipedia policy ( WP:AFDFORMAT) states "[d]o not make conflicting recommendations; if you change your mind, modify your original recommendation rather than adding a new one" and the strikethrough technique is reccomended. It is important for the closing administrator to see the evolution of the debate when closing an AfD nomination, so it's best that all comments remain on the page.

Yes, it was over. Your only next step is an RFC/A. Poor idea to unarchive it, as no immediate administrator action was to come from it. ( ✉→ BWilkins ←✎) 19:39, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
All I wanted was a agreement that his block on me was either correct or incorrect. I don't want to involve the whole community like that, or make a big deal out of this. His overall actions don't seem to be that bad, although there are some questionable ones. I'm aware of the fact that admins are not perfect. I'm not the only one who disputes the fact that I was blocked. I would just like to continue on with my contributions to Wikipedia as if nothing had happened, but before that, I would require my rollback rights restored. Seeing as how it is disputed that my edits were even edit warring, and he removed them for that reason; I believe that requires a discussion among users, which is why I restored the ANI discussion. Additionally, he blocked me immediately after we had a little dispute on a user's talk page, which is covered on WP:INVOLVED. Statυs ( talk) 22:23, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Status, would you mind discussing the change to the lede? I reworded the start of it to:
I believe this is a more accurate wording for the Foundation since they clearly aren't working solely in America or for an American-only goal. The big clue being their constant mention of making a better world (rather than a better more inclusive America) and the fact that the Born Brave buses are following her on tours to help others. There's also her poster campaign and hook-up with Viacom which were not confined to just America and so i believe this to be factually incorrect. Thanks ツ Jenova 20 ( email) 23:50, 6 July 2012 (UTC)

I reverted; I believe another one of those paintings does have a close paraphrase tag on it, but it wasn't that one. I'm sure they'll be looked at in due time. I'll re-review that one in particular and do a paraphrase check on those, since it is possible some of those are going to have problems. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 03:10, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

We're approaching the beginning of 2012's final round. Pool A sees
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions) as the leader, with 300 points being awarded for the featured article
Bivalvia, and Pool B sees
Grapple X (
submissions) in the lead, with 10 good articles, and over 35 articles eligible for good topic points. Pool A sees
Muboshgu (
submissions) in second place with a number of articles relating to baseball, while Pool B's
Ruby2010 (
submissions) follows Grapple X, with a variety of contributions including the high-scoring, high-importance featured article on the 2010 film
Pride & Prejudice. Ruby2010, like Grapple X, also claimed a number of good topic points; despite this, not a single point has been claimed for featured topics in the contest so far. The same is true for featured portals.
Currently, the eighth-place competitor (and so the lowest scorer who would reach the final round right now) has scored 332, more than double the 150 needed to reach the final round last year. In 2010, however, 430 was the lowest qualifying score. In this competition, we have generally seen scores closer to those in 2010 than those in 2011. Let's see what kind of benchmark we can set for future competitions! As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

I see reverted the album cover image I uploaded, a while ago. I just thought it would make better sense to have an album cover image with the actual Metamorphosis text on the cover. Granted, the image you want is a lot more cleaner than the image I uploaded. The image without the Metamorphosis text is taken from photocopies of the actual CD cover, the image with the Metamorphosis text, is the web version and is a close representation of what the CD cover looks like from a far, with the Metamorphosis text on the CD binding. Anyway, I found this particular image [14], which may or may not be a larger image of the one uploaded. I think is particular image could be a compromise for the both of us (once its shrunk to fair use size), its not as clean as the photocopy, but its a lot more clear than the one I uploaded. Let me know what you think and if you don't want any further changes to the file, I won't bother you about this anymore. QuasyBoy (talk) 04:51, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

Hey, I noticed today that on Billboard.biz, if you go to archive and search for something (such as a song's peak date), you can get to the archived, full chart. Works the same for album and video charts as well. Here's an example of what I mean. I figured I would tell you since you are online. Anyway, if you need to find an chart archive date or something I would suggest you do it before they figure out. Toa Nidhiki05 02:47, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
OMG... I just noticed I was doing year end charts only. Statυs ( talk) 03:10, 6 August 2012 (UTC)
First of all, you must be reading a different Ciara letter than I am, because the only single that she said her label told radio stations not to play was "Gimmie Dat". All she said about other songs was "there were time that i chose songs to lead a project but i was ignored". In translation, she's saying the songs she chose weren't released, but as she gave no titles, it is WP:OR to assume she's talking about certain songs. In addition, the radio1 source you have for june 15, 2009 has a number of remixes and internet inks that never hit radio or put on an album. According to that, Drake released five singles that day, while Lil Wayne, 50 Cent, and T.I. also released songs, (None of them are included on any of their albums or are considered to be singles. In that way, the site is unreliable, and everything on that page is false. As for the billboard source, its just a review that happened to be published on June 20, 2009. The reviewer most likely received the song at the time that all other sites first announced that it "will be" released. ( a critic needs time to write a review and get it published) The song may have been cancelled within that time (look at sweat, it premiered on june 4th and sites like Rap-Up said it will be released, but as you know in those two weeks between that and its planned digital release, it was CANCELLED) Plus in that same article, it reviews The-Dream's Walkin on the moon, which was released to radio on April 28th, according to Radio and records (R&R.com). So the publishing date has nothing to do with when it was released. The song is not listed on FMQB or R&R (which shows urban radio release archives)
If that's not enough she never even mentioned it in the summer of 2009 and didn't even perform it on her tour with Jay-Z IN THE US. Plus, as I know singles don't need music videos, NAME one Ciara single that does;t have a video. She even released one for Gimmie Dat when she had to pay for it herself (her videos are what she's known for).
So there is no source that gives a date of release for it, and by the time of that billboard article, it had already charted due to unsolicited radio airplay. So, there's no way to show it was released. I wanted it to be a single, because I was a fan that didn;t want her to give up on Fantasy Ride, but the fact is it wasn't.
Nothing says radio or CD single (not even digital download, which Work got in the US in December 2009). So please tell me in what way, shape, or form can you say that that song was released?-- TheCountdown ( talk) 03:22, 6 August 2012 (UTC)

I know them, but all were made perfectly to the page and you blew it! Τhe part of the dance again tour is exactly the same but just a bit shorter.

Wrong! I don't know what about Enrique, but out of the concerts there is the logo of "dance again tour" everywhere.

Thank you for your comments in regards to the canvassing allegations being made against myself. However, I feel that you should be made aware of the entire issue, as it would have saved you time purging the allegations further. As it has been pointed out and noted by all involved, at the time of the Suntribe AfD I had started to update the WP:EURO newsletter with AfD alerts so project members would receive the notifications. At that time I noticed user BabbaQ was actively editing. As I know he is a member of the same project I left him a note to let him know there was an AfD if he wished to participate. I had never stated that the user must participate nor did I force the user to cast a keep !vote. I then proceeded to each of the respective article pages to continue posting AfD notifications in case members of WP:EURO don't have all pages on their watchlists - and believe me there are members who can't be bothered to add pages to a watchlist. I was unbeknown that BabbaQ was also posting the same notices across various article talk pages, it was the edit conflicts that made me aware, and it would have been darn right stupid to duplicate a post twice on one talk page. I have never been away that BabbaQ is a "99.9% keep" as he has participated in other AfD and has been known to vote delete, merger, redirect based on his own opinion of the case. The user who cast the accusation has acknowledged this but is refusing to retract their allegations - why I have no idea. But it is most unfair that they should acknowledge their allegation was wrong but not retract it entirely. As I cannot retract their statements myself, then I have no clue as to what action to take next other than escalate things further. Wesley Mouse 04:53, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
Hello. There is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you. Bleubeatle ( talk) 13:23, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for some very valid advice that you have given in a recent heated debate over AfD's etc. Some of the points that you have raised have really opened my eyes to a broader perspective. One of the main points you made helped me to understand that there could have been a misinterpretation of words written by one user, which lead to a incorrect canvassing caution being issued - I have since retracted that caution in hindsight of your advice. What concerns me now, is that there were a lot of guidance links being referenced in the two AfD discussions, and those links contradicted each other and left matters somewhat confusing - and if they can confuse myself who has been around here for a year now, then they most certainly would confuse a less established editor too. In light of that, I think that I need to open a new discussion at WT:ESC with the aim that all project members are able to find some common ground and avoid similar situations like this arising in the future. Is there any advice that you may be able to provide that would assist me in this? E.g. other areas that would be ideal to get involved to broaden the outlook? Such advice would be truly appreciated. Regards, (Wes) Wesley Mouse 15:30, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
Ahh thanks Zach, those ideas for articles sound like a massive improvement and would prevent premature article creations too, plus unnecessary AfD and the over-heated debates that come with them. I've left a note at the ANI discussion informing people that this matter appears to be resolving itself, and that we are currently discussion proposals on how to better improve the situation including potential project reforms to improve operations.

Hi Status,
"Like a Surgeon" was a different story because it was sent to radio and digital release was never planned. Billboard specifically ran an article regarding the former saying that it was a single. "Sweat" was called a single up until its release where in Billboards chart listings it was called a promotional single. Quite simple really. its not as easy as saying song sent to radio = single. It depends on what was said by the label and/or reliable sources. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 18:19, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

recently several people edited the page, but you didn't allow anyone to make any changes!!! The article is free. What is wrong with my last edit? I found them perfect... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alxthss ( talk • contribs) 21:18, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
But u don't explain me what's the problem. I made the page look more beautiful with photos and organized. And dates with Enrique I picked out and I just put them with the link to another page! The difference is very insipid. I think you should compromise... — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alxthss ( talk • contribs) 21:36, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
The processing of the page is free! I saw some time ago another man who added dates with Enrique too and you cancel it again. And as for the other changes, it's a matter of organization and there is no mistake. In contrast there are many mistakes in the current page! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Alxthss ( talk • contribs) 21:45, 2 September 2012 (UTC)

, but you should read the
guide to appealing blocks first.During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection. Toddst1 ( talk) 17:45, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

Request reason:
Yeah... so, apparently I was edit warring on Dance Again World Tour when I was actually just reinforcing consensus that was previously reached. This user Alxthss ( talk · contribs) kept going against said consensus, and several users asked him to take it to the article's talk page if he wishes for tour dates that are part of a different tour to be included on an article for another tour in which they have no relevance to. I explained it to the user several times on their talk and they basically just told me they would keep adding them regardless. Hahc21 ( talk · contribs) (who also reverted him, but was failed to be blocked during this instance by said administration) left him a message, and he blanked his talk page - completely ignoring it - and then proceed to revert, once again. Hahc21 then left a message to Toddst1 ( talk · contribs) and he blocked both Alxthss and I. I totally expected it. Myself, Alxthss, Hahc21 and Tomica ( talk · contribs) were all involved in this "edit war", yet only me and Alxthss were blocked. So, Hahc21 asked Toddst1 on his talk page if this should be brought to DRN and he just flat out blocked. Okay guys! This is where it gets hilarious! Are you ready for this? The block template states: "During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution." This is where I literally laughed aloud; it was uncontrollable really. There was already consensus reached, yet that user decided to ignore it, and Toddst1 was asked by Hahc21 if it should be taken to dispute resolution. Anyways, as you can see from my block log (which you've probably already seen; and my July archives, if you wanna take a peek) Toddst1 and I have been our fair share of disputes in the past. This is why I wasn't surprised at all he went and blocked me. I know this request is probably against some of the appealing block guidelines (Hahc21 has helped me tone it down the best it can), but I find it to be completely relevant to the topic at hand. I was blocked for "edit warring" to reinforce consensus by an administration who I have had arguments and disagreements in the past. And please, for the love of God, don't treat me like I'm some new user who kept vandalizing articles over and over again and is bitching about the blocking admin. I've been on Wikipedia for a while now, and I know how things work around here (for the most part). I will say that since my last block, which had to do with the way I explained things when reverting other users, I have improved a whole lot. I think I definitely proved that during this dispute, so I do not understand why on Earth I could be blocked. Thanks everyone for taking the time to read this. If you know me, you wouldn't expect anything else.
Accept reason:
Per the discussion on Toddst1's talkpage and below, I'm removing this block. The "invitation" below is a bit over the top, and I too would prefer to see it revoked, but it isn't against policy nor is it a blockable offence. Since it has no bearing on this block, and since the block has already been deemed overly harsh, I see no reason not to lift it. Yunshui 雲 水 07:59, 4 September 2012 (UTC)

If you're going to change the B&B cast list for whatever reasons you seem fit, then do it for the three other soaps that are on-air please. It looks as if you're targeting one soap for whatever your reasons are and it breaks the consistency the pages share. Musicfreak7676 my talk page! 02:10, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi there - I agree the changes you are making to B&B cast are drastic enough they should be discussed on the talk page and/or WP:SOAPS please, at least in the cases that you are deleting a lot of info. Also, I'm not sure if some of the sources are reliable for cast lists (soaps.com, etc). Can we undo the changes that delete info and wait for a discussion to be had? Thanks! Kelly Marie 0812 ( talk) 02:40, 5 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi Statυs, Please explain if I'm wrong, but according to Template:Infobox_television#Attributes, what goes in show_name_2 is: '"Also known as", i.e. other names by which the show is known.' Not how it was known, meaning this is for aliases. These are not titles that can be used interchangeably, but are predecessors to the current one. So, preceded_by: should be used. -- Musdan77 ( talk) 03:25, 5 September 2012 (UTC)

I have reverted your edit (except for the celebrity section that I didn't add back since there was a consensus).
I have taken a look at the talk page of this article. All the users disagree with you, at least when it comes to duration. You can't just decide to radically change an article to your own needs and disregard the wish of the other users. That's not how Wikipedia works.
Please discuss with the other users and reach an agreement with them before making again these kinds of changes on the article. If no consensus can be reached for the duration, the original version will have to prevail. Thank you. Farine ( talk) 22:13, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

Hello Status,
I have noticed your changes to the B&B cast page and I realize you want to change the entire article. I have read the talk page and saw that no consensus was reached. You are more than welcome to use your sandbox in order to rearrange the article. However, until a consensus is reached the article must be reverted back to its original content. This is your only warning on this subject. Thank you. Hurley2000 ( talk) 19:18, 8 September 2012 (UTC)

A single is a song sent to radio stations has a music video and has been confirmed by the record label as such, a promotional single is a single release to digital download and may have a music video to promote a movie, charity, etc. it is not always free from your argument on the discography page and has not been confirmed by the label as an official single off the product if you have no source claiming it is an official single then it is a promotional single. you need to stop acting like you own the taylor swift pages. i noticed you ruining a lot of them and you need to stop. its not right of you to confuse people by posting wrong information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.102.31.108 ( talk) 16:43, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
exactly so zac is wrong in that aspect and so are you tomica. all singles that aren't released to radio are promotional singles, eg. "Today was a Fairytale" was used to promote Valentine's Day, Safe & Sound was used to promote The Hunger Games and i'd like to point this statement in the promotional recordings section:
Since the advent of broad-bandwidth Internet access and professional tools such as iPool or Haulix, the online promotional distribution of music has been established. Record companies make their music available as audio files and use the Internet as a distribution channel. In contrast to the conventional way of distributing promotional recordings, this kind of promotional distribution is faster and cheaper.
Nothing about free there sorry... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.102.31.108 ( talk) 17:19, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
Wrong again Tomica: You are picking and chosing here as the next sentence clearly states: Promos are normally sent directly to broadcasters, such as music radio and television stations, and to tastemakers, such as DJs and music journalists, in advance of the release of commercial editions, in the hope that airplay, reviews, and other forms of exposure will result and stimulate the public's interest in the commercial release. Oops your bad...
Since the advent of broad-bandwidth Internet access and professional tools such as iPool or Haulix, the online promotional distribution of music has been established. Record companies make their music available as audio files and use the Internet as a distribution channel. In contrast to the conventional way of distributing promotional recordings, this kind of promotional distribution is faster and cheaper. Companies specializing in this type of promotion, such as zipDJ, EatDigital and Potboiler Promotions, have become more prominent in recent times.
Cheaper meaning oops you gotta pay....
the act of furthering the growth or development of something; especially : the furtherance of the acceptance and sale of merchandise through advertising, publicity, or discounting
No where in the definition does it say it has to be free.
Review is complete. It's on hold awaiting changes. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 22:07, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
To base something as a promotional single based on outdated promotional cd singles not released to the general public when there is more then one way a single is promotional is wrong based on the simple facts of A) Not all promotional cd singles are real and are fan made to make money. B) all promotional cd singles released are of songs that were released to radio and C) there is other forms of promotional singles. I am sorry but that false consensus is wrong and so is wikipedia. And it is not for you to decide when a discussion is over when wikipedia is placing incorrect information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.82.64.34 ( talk) 22:08, 11 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi there. I saw the edit you made to Deacon Sharpe a while back, saying you were "cleaning up the infobox." First of all, for occupations, all are to be listed. Former occupations are relevant, but the word "former" is not to be used. A lot of soap articles currently violate that term but I'm working on it. And another thing, when a character has starred on two or more soaps, we don't write out the full series title next to their appearances, we use their abbreviation. We link it next to the durations and then just write it in italics next to the appearances. Just thought I'd let you know in case you were going to be editing soap articles. If you have any questions regarding this, please let me know. Thanks! Creativity97 (TALK) 13:45, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
I was hugely confused by your edits. You listed 12 September 2012 as the first release date for "Trouble", when all this stuff was discussed previously it was agreed that the first PURCHASE date is the release date whereas the radio add date is the servicing date. In the UK/Ireland this has even more prominence and airplay has zero direct impact on the charts. A song which is number one on airplay carries no weight as to whether the song is number one on the singles chart as it simply isn't a component of the singles chart. There's no official airplay monitoring. Therefore particularly for where a song's first release is the UK/Ireland the purchase date should be used. As for premieres, well lots of GA/FA articles have the premiere date listed in the release history. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 12:32, 30 September 2012 (UTC)
We're over half way through the final, and so it is less than a month until we know for certain our 2012 WikiCup champion.
Grapple X (
submissions) currently leads, followed by
Sasata (
submissions),
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions) and
Casliber (
submissions). However, we have no one resembling a breakaway leader, and so the competition is a long way from over. Next month's newsletter will feature a list of our winners (who are not necessarily only the finalists) and keep your eyes open for an article on the WikiCup in a future edition of
The Signpost. The leaders are already on a par with last year's winners, but a long way from the huge scores seen in 2010. That said, a repeat of the competition from 2010 seems unlikely.
It is good to see that three-quarters of our finalists have already scored bonus points this round. This shows that, contrary to criticism that the WikiCup has received in the past, the competition does not merely incentivise the writing of trivial articles; instead, our top competitors are still spending their time contributing to high-importance articles, and bringing them to a high standard. This does a great service to the encyclopedia and its readers. Thank you, and good work!
The planning for next year's WikiCup is ongoing. Some straw polls have been opened concerning the scoring, and you can now sign up for next year's competition. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Hey Zac! Sorry for not helping around, college has been keeping me busy.

Please explain to me a logical reason why that template needs to be atop the page. That page has only been edited 7 times today and nothing is major. The template itself says to remove it if the page hasn't been edited "in several hours", and you just want it to stay on the page permanently? That template is used when a user is making a major overhaul over a short period of time to avoid edit conflicts. It also says "If you are the editor who added this template, please be sure to remove it or replace it with 'Underconstruction' between editing sessions", which you neglect to do. (not that it really matters because no "major" edit appears to be happening) NYSM talk page 23:54, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Thank you for trying to keep Wikipedia free of vandalism. However, one or more edits you labeled as
vandalism, such as the edit at
List of The Bold and the Beautiful cast members, are not considered vandalism under Wikipedia policy. Wikipedia has a stricter definition of the word "vandalism" than common usage, and mislabeling edits as vandalism can
discourage newer editors. Please read
Wikipedia:NOTVAND for more information on what is and is not considered vandalism. Thank you.

Why have you reverted the information I changed on there? Pink is playing New York Madison Square Garden, along with the extra date at Munich... all of which can be found on the official truth about love tour site.

the 'm' is redundant when he is already listed as her 'spouse', and yes i'm quite aware that 2012 is the present, but when people read it in a 1 year or 5 years from now, it won't be 2012 anymore, leaving present on there is an open ended way of saying they are still together.

The Barnstar of Recovery | |
Hi Zac! We don't really do much together here anymore but I just decided to give you this barnstar because of all the rescuing you have done to many articles including Jennifer Lopez-related articles. You saved many and even turned them into amazing articles. Your work on Jennifer Lopez: Feelin' So Good is a great example of this. You've taught me a lot, and I really appreciate you. Ar re 04:36, 20 October 2012 (UTC) |
Hey, I saw this [File:Jennifer Lopez 12, 2012.jpg]. Do you think it's good for her info-box? I think it looks less awkward without her mouth open, and we can see all of her facial features. What do u think? Ar re 12:00, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
Really you were?, I wouldn't have expected you to create an article like that. :) I figured I would do it because the actor chart was removed from Burton's main page, because it was too large. I have been watching Tim Burton movies all this month, he's one of my favorite film directors. Whatever edits you want to make to the article, feel free. :) QuasyBoy (talk) 20:03, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
Would you like to nominate the article for FLC with me? (Of course, when it's done.) A better lead and recurring crew is all that appears to be needed. Zac ( talk · contribs) 20:40, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
OK, so I saw Alice. Visually its a great film, but besides that, there's not much going for it. Its just OK, to me. As for Dark Shadows, its alright, its a pretty typical Tim Burton/Johnny Depp collaboration. If you like their previous films together, you'll like it, but its nothing special. Now that I have seen every Tim Burton feature film, Here are my top 10 favorites of his. 1. Edward Scissorhands, 2. Big Fish, 3. Ed Wood, 4. Beetlejuice, 5. Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street, 6. Sleepy Hollow, 7. Mars Attacks!, 8. Batman, 9. Pee-wee's Big Adventure and 10. Corpse Bride.

Hi. Persona's are key to careers. If they don't have sources, why don't you TRY to source them instead of removing them? That's lazy. Also, years are the years they were recorded, not released. That's kind of common sense. -- MrIndustry ( talk) 20:12, 21 October 2012 (UTC)

I did specify why I was removing that info from Britney Spears discography page, more specifically from her "Compilation albums" section on her Discography page, I will paste here exactly what I wrote in justification for the edit: "This section was a piece of s*** with many unofficial, unnecessary and uncalled for albums listed. She only has four official compilations/remixes albums, GH:MP, B In The Mix Vols 1 and 2 and The Singles Collection,", that section has boxes and special editions of albums which are completely a waste of space and 200% unnecessary information. A response on my page will be highly appreciated. Thank you!

Not that it matters that much I guess but I think the list that you are basing all of the songwriting/producer credit off of isn't 100% correct. I think BMI is much more of a reliable source and Jamie Hartman himself tweeted that he co-wrote Army of Me with Phil Bentley, which matches the BMI listing. http://twitter.com/jamiehartman/status/261220229043073025 His account is verified as well. + a second tweet he made says the Tracklacers at least co-produced the track yet they are no where to be found on these supposed "Sony" credits and neither is Phil Bentley.

The 2012 WikiCup has come to a close; congratulations to
Cwmhiraeth (
submissions), our 2012 champion! Cwmhiraeth joins our exclusive club of previous winners:
Dreamafter (2007),
jj137 (2008),
Durova (2009),
Sturmvogel 66 (2010) and
Hurricanehink (2011). Our final standings were as follows:
Prizes for first, second, third and fourth will be awarded, as will prizes for all those who reached the final eight. Every participant who scored in the competition will receive a ribbon of participation. In addition to the prizes based on placement, the following special prizes will be awarded based on high performance in particular areas of content creation. So that the finalists do not have an undue advantage, the prize is awarded to the competitor who scored the highest in any particular field in a single round.
Awards will be handed out in the coming days; please bear with us! This year's competition also saw fantastic contributions in all rounds, from newer Wikipedians contributing their first good or featured articles, right up to highly experienced Wikipedians chasing high scores and contributing to topics outside of their usual comfort zones. It would be impossible to name all of the participants who have achieved things to be proud of, but well done to all of you, and thanks! Wikipedia has certainly benefited from the work of this year's WikiCup participants.
Next year's WikiCup will begin in January. Currently, discussions and polls are open, and all contributions are welcome. You can also sign up for next year's competition. There will be no further newsletters this year, although brief notes may be sent out in December to remind everyone about the upcoming competition. It's been a pleasure to work with you all, and we hope to see you all in January! J Milburn ( talk • email) and The ed17 ( talk • email) 00:23, 1 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi. In response to your message to me earlier, WP:TVPLOT suggests that, in a short summary outside of the episode article itself (if there is one or not, doesn't matter), it should be from "100–200 words for each, with upwards of 350 words for complex storylines", it doesn't really matter if there is an episode article or not. If it has an actual episode article, then it should be more words says that same guideline, but in this case, it should be "100–200 words for each, with upwards of 350 words for complex storylines", as already said. "The plot summary is an overview of the episode's main events, so avoid minutiae like dialogue, scene-by-scene breakdowns, individual jokes and technical detail" says that guideline if it helps, and don't hide spoilers per WP:SPOILERS (just in case it is). In your list, most seem good, but some are too long, such as episode 22 summary. I'd be inclined to give a peer review, and I thank you for modelling it of off my list. I have made minor changes, as you probably know. Cheers, TBr and ley 21:24, 18 November 2012 (UTC)

I have only noticed your edits twice recently and twice you have removed perfectly valid content and sources. Here you removed a huge chunk of content from - Home (Phillip Phillips song), claiming that it is unsourced when in fact some of those deleted content are in fact sourced, the content in the Critical reception was sourced to here. It looks like you never even look at the source before deleting it. If the reference wasn't done properly, then there is the citation need tag and other tags you can use. Here in Taylor Swift discography you revert sales number from perfectly valid sources, without giving proper rationale why that is not acceptable and that another outdated one would be preferable. Roughstock is a perfectly valid source, it is not less reliable than Billboard, they get their numbers from the same source which is SoundScan. Please try to engage in editing in a more positive manner. Hzh ( talk) 01:20, 19 November 2012 (UTC)

![]() | On 28 November 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Scream & Shout, which you recently nominated. The fact was ... that will.i.am and Britney Spears's 2012 single " Scream & Shout" contains a sample of the opening line of Spears' 2007 single " Gimme More": "It's Britney, bitch"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Scream & Shout. You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page ( here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000.

Thanks for uploading
File:Rihanna Diamonds World Tour.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a
claim of fair use. However, it is currently
orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.
You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see
our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot ( talk) 04:27, 29 November 2012 (UTC)

If you look on Amazon.de there is a box in the top left hand corner that says "Dieser Song erscheint am 7. Dezember 2012" which translates as "This song is available on 7 December 2012". It does say later on "Ursprüngliches Erscheinungsdatum : 19. November 2012" which translates as Original release date 19 November 2012, but unlike Amazon.fr or Amazon.it there's no purchase link on Amazon.de yet because the single's date has been pushed back. — Lil_℧niquℇ №1 [talk] 16:32, 2 December 2012 (UTC)

" Don't take any decisions when you are sad (frustrated, depressed...)" - Hey Status! I've to admit that I'm a lurker and that is what I do half the time on Wiki. I've seen you around and you've been generally an awesome editor. Your work at GAs and FLs is remarkable and I value them. I also respect your decision to leave but I'd strongly suggest to reconsider this mate. It is undoubtedly a loss to the community if you leave. People get in conflicts and later move on, some editors might criticize or discourage you but giving up isn't the only option; just have to keep faith in yourself. I'd not like to add another name on my userpage so do have some second thoughts about this. All the best with real life! TheSpecialUser TSU 15:42, 4 December 2012 (UTC) |

Status, I am very sorry that you are considering retirement and I hope that you will have the courage to stay with Wikipedia. If you do decide to leave, I respect, but you are a very good editor, with a number of featured articles, featured lists, and good articles in knowledge. Please don't leave criticisms and conflicts hurt you, however. So please enjoy some Tim Hortons cookies from Canada. They're delicious, especially with a nice hot chocolate along with it. Best wishes, enjoy real life, and happy December! TBr and ley 17:47, 4 December 2012 (UTC) |

You guys are too sweet (just like the yummy food you've given me). It's very hard, with the loss in my family, and the stress from my final year of school, users also driving me wild; pestering and attacking me here on Wikipedia just becomes too much. I'm an emotional wreck right now, so try not to take me too seriously. I'll be here, not a little, not a lot; just here. I don't know how long that will be, but your kind words makes it feel that much better. When people literally tell you that you're a "blind", "ignorant" and inexperienced user, who, shouldn't have any user rights, you kind of lose faith in not only your contributions, but also "why do I even bother?". And with everything else going on, you know. Statυs ( talk) 23:39, 4 December 2012 (UTC)

Status, It's so sad to see you upset. I hope this is a wiki-break, and not retiring for good. You have so much to offer still and so much to finish off! I hope when your personal life has improved and you feel better, you will come back. Much Love, Ar re 04:40, 5 December 2012 (UTC) |
How are you? I would, like several others, like to send my condolences out to you and your whole family, as I appreciate that this may be a difficult time for you. I am mainly sending you this message as I implore you to ignore Till's incredibly insensitive and unkind comments about you ("He isn't worth the time or effort to put up with" and telling everyone "don't feel guilty because a "retirement consideration" notice has been put up"). Although I am aware of the history between the two of you, he has clearly not recognized that you are likely to be sensitive at this time, and should not be provoking you into dispute again at this time. You are both great editors, but he's crossed a line here. Again, please do not let him get to you, and certainly don't try and provoke him back.
If he's seriously pissing you off, I strongly recommend that you take a Wikibreak (as the ANIs don't seem to be helping) just to clear your mind of what is, in all honesty, not that important in the general scheme of things – there's life outside 4 million web pages. I don't want to seem intrusive, but I despise this sort of insensitivity from people and will not stand aside to simply watch this happen to you.
You've been a great editor, but if you choose to retire I completely understand. I hope these words are wise! (Oh, and the brownie was nice.) I Am Rufus • Conversation is a beautiful thing. 21:33, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Oh hi Status, thanks for your message. But the single "Nobody Wants to be Lonely" by Xtina & Ricky Martin is a featured single (because "Nobody Wants... Lonely" does not appear on Xtina's album). Moreover, the song "I Hate Boys" is a promotional single, and "Beautiful" (with Beverly McChellin) and "The Prayer" (with Chris Mann) are not singles. You should deliver them to "Other charted songs". thanks! Trnhgduoc2222 ( talk) 16:23, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Your comments on various talk pages are becoming disruptive, and I would advise you to take a break and tone it down a bit.
More specifically, your attempts at baiting another editor into a reaction at User talk:Malleus Fatuorum, and then slyly removing your baiting comments after you've induced such a reaction, is rankly deceitful and disruptive. As has been pointed out to you by another editor on that page, a strikeout will suffice if you wish to indicate that you've withdrawn the comment. If you remove it again, I will block you for disruptive editing.
I understand that you're a good content contributor and work well with articles. I advise that you return to the article namespace and continue your work there, and leave this all this Malleus nonsense behind. Basalisk inspect damage⁄ berate 06:21, 31 December 2012 (UTC)
