untitled[edit]

please someone delete this article,as for there is no reliable source that this is a confirmed single.....please delete it..

This article should be deleted,as it does not have any reliable sources that states its going to the next official single of the album........

i dont know why its taking so long for it to be deleted....the article "touch my body" had the same reference as this one,and it was deleted several times.....and in this article its the exact same situation,and yet it still exists.....i dont get it...... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brexx (talk • contribs) 21:01, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

why isnt someone saying something about this article....it doesnt have any reliable source nor it is confirmed as the next single..............,why only "touch my body"....this is so unfair....wikipedia,im so disappointed...... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brexx (talk • contribs) 21:14, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

both songs arent confirmed to be singles and dont have any reliable sources,so why should one of them stay and the other go...if one stays the other should also stay and vice versa.....but this is just unfair.....i just dont understand please someone explain....if wikipedia keeps this article,then its so lowering its standards... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brexx (talk • contribs) 21:08, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

iTunes Speaks For Itself
The bottom line is, the song has already been released as a digital download, is identified as a single, and it's verifiable on iTunes at the following URL: http://phobos.apple.com/WebObjects/MZStore.woa/wa/viewArtist?id=271066088. Even though it hasn't been confirmed by a more solid source like Billboard, it's only a matter of time before it is. So why waste time trying to derail progress on somethingi that's going to be accomplished anyway? Souldier77 (talk) 06:17, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Lead & infobox[edit]

Prose

"Stamile and Dupri" → "the last two"
Is the "for the kids" quote necessary here? I guess it could be paraphrased or substituted with 'for its members' (referring to the gay community).
Perhaps you could address the Bubbling Under positions (at least the Under Hot 100)

Music and lyrics[edit]

Prose

"Electroboogie" could be changed to "electro groove", it's too casual.
Is MWZA reliable?
"herself" will be easier to understand if substituted by Jackson
Riffs is in plural form, so "it" in this sentence is gramatically incorrect.
"Building on the original's bed of synthesized chord changes, the producers layer in swirling keyboards, vocoder whispers and the singer's own distended murmurs." — blatant copyvio; what is the original?
If the song talks about an "erotic proposition", what relation does it have with the gay community?

Files

As a rule of thumb, the length of a sample should be approximately 10% of the song's original length. In this case, 23 seconds is the maximum. The caption could be rephrased a bit just so it doesn't repeat what's in the section. At least so they aren't the exact same words.

Critical reception[edit]

Suggestion: How about merging this section with the next one, and reorder the information so it goes "Release and reception" (that being the title too)? It's just that the Release section is a bit small.

Music video[edit]

Suggestion: Merge this section with Live performance, change the title and explain how she was dressed during that tour and what she did during it.

Almost all

Done, except the live performance informations which I didn't find. Alex ^{talk page!} 23:01, 1 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
