FLC issue
If you have time, could you comment on the source issue here? Thanks in advance. Candyo32 02:14, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the tip! I forgot that since the video had been released, than it would be tons of sources on it, particularly Rap-Up! Thanks again, maybe I can get this FLC wrapped up! Candyo32 03:22, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

The Fame Monster
Are you saying the fame Monster is not an album of Lady Gaga ?. Where does it say that it's not considered an album ? Gaga's website confirms it as an album. so does gagapedia. What is this " Consensus " you mention about ? Care to explain ? So you're saying that TFM is not an album just because it has new songs not released on The Fame ?. So can I say that Rated R by Rihanna is an EP because those songs were not released on GGGB —Preceding unsigned comment added by Rackshea (talk • contribs) 09:57, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- An EP is defined by length. See Talk:The Fame Monster#Studio album vs. EP for the discussion. Gagapedia is not a reliable source. Please take part in the discussion, but for now, consensus has it that TFM is an EP. Adabow (talk · contribs) 10:06, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- But what people are trying to say is that just because she didn't release those songs on The Fame and decided to release a new album by the name of TFM doesn't mean it's an EP. Like I said in my above post. Can I say that Rated R by Rihanna is an EP because those songs were not released on GGGB Rackshea (talk) 10:28, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- It is irrelevant whether the songs are new or not. Songs on most studio albums and EPs are new. The discussion is based on size. It is being argued whether it is a full-length album or an EP, which is defined on playing time. Adabow (talk · contribs) 10:34, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- Reading your edit summaries, I think you have a misunderstanding of what an EP is. An EP is not a repackage of an album (like a deluxe edition), but an EP is quite similar to a studio album, just shorter. Adabow (talk · contribs) 10:39, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- So theoretically it is the same thing as an album. Just a shortened version of that album ? Why are we concluding that TFM is an EP now ? Why didn't we do that when it was first released ? Rackshea (talk) 10:43, 8 October 2010 (UTC)
- (talk page stalker) Yes, that is what an EP is, and that is why we are now referring to The Fame Monster as one. We didn't do that when the album was first released because some editors were confused about Gaga calling the album her sophomore effort and decided that it should be called a studio album, despite very few reliable sources calling it one. Most sources called it an EP, and so did Gaga herself. –Chase (talk) 20:19, 8 October 2010 (UTC)

Deletion of Comparison_of_online_post_office
I don't get it... We have tons of comparison page like http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Linux_distributions .
So why do you delete it? Please restore if it's was a mistake. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gagarine (talk • contribs) 11:49, 19 October 2010 (UTC)
- The main point was that it was unreferenced. I did not delete it myself, but rather tagged it for WP:PROD. I can't undelete it, but an administrator may if you explain your point of view to them. Adabow (talk · contribs) 04:57, 20 October 2010 (UTC)
Neither of the sound files have rationales; you don't just need any old rationale, you need a detailed, specific rationale for each usage of the file (or, as far as FAC is concerned, the usage in that article). Take a look at the non-free content criteria and the fair use rationale guideline. J Milburn (talk) 00:12, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Band Together concert
Hi Adabow, I hope things are well for you. We've been to the Band Together concert today and as requested have taken quite a lot of photos. You might have seen on TV that it was a rather big affair and there was no way of getting close to the stages. So all the photos that I've got are of the big video screens. I've uploaded a sample to Commons so that you can see for yourself; the pictures are somewhat pixelated. What I've got is from Opshop onwards – I assume that you have the list of bands at hand, but I can also write it down for you. In addition, there's Jason Gunn, Simon Barnett and Paul Ellis. Let me know whether you are interested in photos of this quality. Schwede66 09:10, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
- Well done! With 100,000 people, I'm not surprises it was difficult to get some good shots. I don't see anything wrong with the quality of image - especially seeing as some musicians have no image at all at the moment. My only concern is for copyright; some cameraman filmed the action which you photographed. Would s/he not own the copyright, then? Adabow (talk · contribs) 09:18, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
- Interesting question – I don't know. Let me know when you find out. I've got 500 MB of photos. If it's all go, I can zip them up and put them on a server for you to download. I could let you know the URL by email. Schwede66 09:51, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
- The photo appears to be a derivative work, if so I can suggest tagging it with Speedy / uploader request, to avoid a notice. XLerate (talk) 12:32, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
- Ah well, never mind. I've actioned that request. I wouldn't mind you having a look whether I've done this right, as I've never done this before on commons. Schwede66 19:23, 23 October 2010 (UTC)
- Sorry, non-free screenshot is probably better wording to use, otherwise looks fine. Better luck getting close to the stage next time, or personally I wouldn't mind having a lens like this. XLerate (talk) 00:28, 24 October 2010 (UTC)
OrphanReferenceFixer: Help on reversion
Hi there! I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. Recently, you reverted my fix to Opinion polling for the New Zealand general election, 2008.
If you did this because the references should be removed from the article, you have misunderstood the situation. Most likely, the article originally contained both <ref name="foo">...</ref>
and one or more <ref name="foo"/>
referring to it. Someone then removed the <ref name="foo">...</ref>
but left the <ref name="foo"/>
, which results in a big red error in the article. I replaced one of the remaining <ref name="foo"/>
with a copy of the <ref name="foo">...</ref>
; I did not re-insert the reference to where it was deleted, I just replaced one of the remaining instances. What you need to do to fix it is to make sure you remove all instances of the named reference so as to not leave any big red error.
If you reverted because I made an actual mistake, please be sure to also correct any reference errors in the page so I won't come back and make the same mistake again. Also, please post an error report at User talk:AnomieBOT so my operator can fix me! If the error is so urgent that I need to be stopped, also post a message at User:AnomieBOT/shutoff/OrphanReferenceFixer. Thanks! AnomieBOT⚡ 09:48, 23 October 2010 (UTC) If you do not wish to receive this message in the future, add {{bots|optout=AnomieBOT-OrphanReferenceFixer}}

RE:
Sorry, I don't happen to own a copy of Here You Stand. But if you search for the liner notes on Google, they may turn up somewhere. Anyway, I am about to work on corrections for My Chick Bad, and I'll take you up on the offer for trimming the audio for me. I guess you could trim off the beginning and the end to make 21.5 seconds. Thanks & I'll get to the other stuff soon. Candyo32 16:33, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
- Could you comment here Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/Fantasia Barrino discography/archive1 now since I have addressed your concern of changing the publisher of Billboar? And I nkow I've been saying this for a while, but I hope to do the "My Chick Bad" corrections soon. Candyo32 02:35, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- Alright thanks for offering! I'll think about that! Btw, is the "Oppose" above your resolved comments box for your review or someone elses? Candyo32 02:42, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- Donee now! Candyo32 02:49, 12 November 2010 (UTC)
- Lol I'll get My Chick Bad ASAP. Haha. Btw, I saw your awesome work on the GA nom Love in This Club, Pt. II. I notice that you highlight it as just a song rather than a single from Here I Stand Per discussions here with a little clarification made here, it was decided that songs the US that go for radio adds are considered full-fledged singles as labels only send songs that are intended to be singles to radio, CD singles are basically extinct in the US, and after a album is released, a single cannot be re-released for download (ex. Usher's own "There Goes My Baby" was only sent to urban airplay).
- Yes, I admit it is VERY MUCH confusing loL! But surely, a single does not have a cover sometimes in the case of something like Slow Dance (song), I would give some more examples but it's very late and I can't think lol! But anyway the thing with promo singles are they are not given the single treatment (which is usually a download/Cd single and a radio add date). However after an album is relesed, radio add date are usually the only thing to go by (in the US that is). Just basically remember that promo singles are usually those that are released to iTunes as "Countdown to...... [album name]" or they are soundtrack singles that haven't had radio adds. Candyo32 09:12, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
- I found out a better explanation. While "Singles" promote the album and the single itself, "Promo songs/singles" are only set out to promote the album, such as "The Countdown to [......] on iTunes" and if it is a soundtrack single, to promote that movie. Candyo32 09:18, 14 November 2010 (UTC)
- Well that doesn't necessarily make a single as Hot Tottie has no plans for one, and it was also neither released for a download, soley radio adds. And coincidentally, I tried to use the sort function as you said that it wouldn't work. Lol. Idk how the sortable ended up their anyway i dont remember it hah! Candyo32 22:28, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
- Oops! Didn't see that. So should I withdraw? Candyo32 05:19, 16 November 2010 (UTC)
- Well the Fantasia FLC has passed now, so I guess its fine now! And yes!! It needed a video, but it looks like they are moving on. The song was fire, I was upset because it deserved to be a top-ten hit! Candyo32 00:52, 17 November 2010 (UTC)
- Lay You Down was originally supposed to go for urban adds but some how the label retracted it, but its official that "More" from RvR is the next UK single. And thanks for reminding me!!! Almost forgot. I'm finishing up one review and I'll start on that ASAAAAPP! Candyo32 01:04, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

Hi Adabow :) Everything was addressed, and I left some comments for you :D. Thanks!--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 08:56, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
- Oh sorry, I don't know how to do that one :s. Please if you can :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 08:59, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
- Hey, thanks for the help! I have a few questions regarding the things you left. What do you mean "MCIIY" tracklisting? Also, what could I link in the Music video section? I added refs and linked what I thought was appropriate.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 09:11, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
- Gotcha! All done and I added the new Billboard thing as well :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 09:30, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
- I honestly could not find any more reviews. If I could you could be sure I would have added it, I like the articles long. And the references I did already :p. Thanks!--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 09:39, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
- Heheheh no problem, I'd rather that anyday than the rude pessimists on the review page lol. I have question before I do them. The "work" is automatically italicized, you know that right? So I should still make sure they don't come out that way. Next, why should MTV Netwrks come after MTV? They own MTV.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 09:45, 15 November 2010 (UTC)
I actually think I'm done this time :). You have confused me, but I'm still hopeful; remember I've been here a long time :p--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 10:03, 15 November 2010 (UTC)

- Yes, I hope it goes through, thank you :) Hmmm, I'm not quite sure I get you. Candy told me that I had to do it that way for FA, not sure what you mean.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 15:49, 18 November 2010 (UTC)
- Hey Adabow :). Hmmm, honestly I'm really tired of all the made up problems. I'd rather add it back after it passes or fails and add a good one. As for the cover. I didn't upload the cover, only the music video image, and that was from the internet.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 18:53, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

Ugh, they closed the FLC right in the midst of me making corrections. This same thing happened when I was correcting the Ciara FLC. Oh well I'll do all of the corrections and just re-nominate it.

Re: Right thru Me
It's an alternate spelling of "through", so it serves as a preposition. Same reason Hot n Cold is titled the way it is: "n" substitutes for "and", a conjunction. –Chase (talk / contribs) 22:32, 22 November 2010 (UTC)

I understood
Why you reverted my edit, but just for clarity purpose, I have sent a mail to RIANZ regarding the certification, asking whether TF and TFM are certified together, or separately. It's important that we clarify all these once and for all, for eg: The OCC and CRIA replied me that in UK TFM will be certified with TF as in CRIA, although in Canada, TFM charted separately. — Legolas (talk2me) 03:51, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
- Lol. IKR? Well, if RIANZ replies, then we don't have to think about the certifications for Cannibal or Versus though, so that headache is gone. — Legolas (talk2me) 04:11, 23 November 2010 (UTC)
RCG Review
Thank you for doing the Rose Colored Glasses review. I'm working on the changes (as you may have noticed I've begun the process) but technically I'm semi-retired at the moment due to academia.

- Yes, she is kinda filling my Gaga-esque void with her eccentricity. Though I love her as an artist. "Your Love" is fantastic. I love her labum better that Ke$ha's album Cannibal though. She's predicted to have amazing sales of 400K. — Legolas (talk2me) 06:13, 25 November 2010 (UTC)

RE:Papers
Well I considered it a single because it was always intended to be on RvR, it got a radio add date, and was for digital download. Multiple reasons for it to be conisdred a single than to not. A promo single is usually to promote a film or to promote an album on iTunes as a "Countdown to...." thing. I myself did not move it to regular singles on the template or discog because I know the obsessive Usher stans are going to go crazy and dispute it. Candyo32 14:59, 26 November 2010 (UTC)
- Haha, I've listened to most songs. I might get it, but from what I can tell most of the songs are mostly midtempo and less of her over-the-topness. & Thanks!! Alot of information was there, I just had to clean it up and add more background. And considering the song was lacking in alot of live performances and the music video and alot of things, it was easy. Another thing, not anytime soon but sometime in the future would you want to collaborate on Usher discography? I've been aiming to do it for sometime but haven't. And I believe his discog is too comprehensive for one person to do. A while back a user has been attempting and attempting to get it FL-ed but no offense, it hasn't been done justice. What'dya think? Candyo32 22:22, 28 November 2010 (UTC)
- Sure I'll let you know! Probably sometime next month when I have a break. Candyo32 01:12, 29 November 2010 (UTC)
- Hmmm, interesting to think about. Yes, before album release, but labels would generally only send songs to radio that were singles. Otherwise it would just be a random song garnering airplay. Theoretically speaking, hearing a song on the radio would want you to buy the song,not go out an buy an album, like a promo single on iTunes would entice you and build anticipation for an album. Now realistically speaking, you think of "Hot Tottie" surely the press considered it the second single and it was released to radio pre-album and no single cover nor video. Candyo32 21:39, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
- Yes, and very much so! As was "Upgrade U." Here, the point of the promo single is to promote the album. I don't understand how a digital EP of a single song is to benefit the album, rather than promo for the single itself. I really appreciate you putting this effort forth to understand the US point of view, because most users pushing forth this never-ending "This is not a single" battle don't even live in the United States and fail to realize the US market, but have this attitude that they know everything by reading Billboard. Candyo32 23:31, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
- No, thank YOU for understanding. I see I'm loosing the battle over at "Why Don't You Love Me" as these people living outside the US are trying to keep it a promo single, so I guess it'll just be a promo if they want to call it that. But why would an freaking EP full of remixes be released just to promote an album? That seems like to stimulate interest for a SINGLE. Anyway, enough of my ranting, I've been noticing your work on the Usher front, great work! Candyo32 23:41, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
- The way you are going now, getting HIS to GT shouldn't be hard!! I was hoping RvR soon but seems like he's still rolling out singles and has hinted at another EP like Versus. I also noticed about the Confessions articles. They really need a touch-up. Users like that also abandoned the articles from Beyonce's B'Day and Dangerously In Love. But as I look back, music articles on here and GA standards have vastly changed (for the better) since that time. With the exception of the Confessions album article itself, which is pretty good, most of the other articles in the series don't even really have intricate details to compliment the magnum opus' that they are. Candyo32 23:57, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
- Congrats!! & I know right!!!! That's how all the Mariah articles are being able to be GA-ed now. That's why when I have time I am going to use webcitation.org to archive as much as I can. And I didn't realize that about the Fame, that makes since! But I HATE "More." "DJ" grew on me, but I can tell this won't and I really hope that it is not released over here. I love Usher's music, but I don't know if we will ever see Confessions again. But that doesn't mean coming close won't happen because Here I Stand and Raymond v. Raymond are not bad, but not close to their predecessor. So I'm hoping it'll come one day. Candyo32 00:42, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
