Hello. I wouldn't mind reviewing the article, although I would probably be delayed in doing so as I have a lot of other review work piled up. Auree ★ 22:30, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
Hi. When you recently edited Don't Stop the Music (Rihanna song), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page BEA ( 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.

Hey:) were you intending on doing the review anytime soon? I'm probably going to finish Ugly as well so yeah. Till I Go Home ( talk) 08:46, 6 February 2012 (UTC)

Let me welcome myself. Lol. I don't like to see you two fighting. :( Please don't do this. Listen, I think one template is more than enough for Rihanna. As far I know, she has many singles and albums but that's all. She has a limited number of films (2), live album (1), no EP, no video album, one perfume, no soundtracks, no major articles related to her (other topics) - which is NOT the case for Beyonce, Eminem and Madonna. Rihanna may have xxx number of albums and singles but we all know that it can fit very well in an all-in-one template. Music is what makes her notable. She does not have an established image as a songwriter (for her own albums or others' albums), live performer, actress, etc. All this to say that in my opinion, she should receive the same treatment as Katy Perry. Please, don't get angry at me. I am only stating my opinion with good reasons (I believe). Jivesh1205 ( Talk) 17:42, 11 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks 1111tomica for helping to promote Hate That I Love You to Good Article status. Please accept this little sign of appreciation and goodwill from me, because you deserve it. Keep it up, and give someone a pat on the back today. -- Sp33dyphil © hat ontributions 01:36, 12 February 2012 (UTC) |

Hi. I had a disagreement with User:Journalist on changes I made to 21 (Adele album). I'd appreciate if I could get some comments to the talk page post opened, where I'm at step zero and proposing the changes. Comment? Dan56 ( talk) 05:49, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
According to the history at Talk:About a Girl (Sugababes song), you passed the song without completing the procedures at WP:GAC. Could you please do so.-- TonyTheTiger ( T/ C/ BIO/ WP:CHICAGO/ WP:FOUR) 14:14, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
An obvious IP-hopping vandal. (Mind you, I'm not saying the IP hopping is on purpose.) I've issued this one an "only warning". If they do it again, you can report at WP:AIV immediately. They were 173.170.175.158 ( talk · contribs · info · WHOIS), of course, which got blocked and did it once more. If this continues, please ask for semi-protection, and let's hope that they tire of it.

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. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which would 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!

Could you participate in this discussion sometime? Yeah, it's about the 8-million-thing again. I asked you because I know you aren't a fan of Gaga. :-) I really want to start a discussion instead of engaging in edit-warring and WP:POINTy behaviour. Thanks.
This has been in one of my sandboxes for ages, and you knew this. You've only done it because as part of retaliating against me. Aaron • You Da One 11:15, 31 March 2012 (UTC)
