[edit]Hey, I created an article for The Scorpion. You seem to be good at putting a lot of substance and citations into articles, so I figured I'd give you a heads up. Have a great day! --L1A1 FAL (talk) 04:35, 10 November 2010 (UTC)

Hook in Mouth
[edit]Hey, I just did some edit work (grammar cleanup, spelling, repeated items, etc) on 'Hook in Mouth', and I noticed that there was no cover for it. Because it was listed as a single, I went to look for it, but the images that came up were for the 'Mary Jane/Hook in Mouth' single. So, just to let you know, you might want to check for some sources that can establish if it is just a B-Side or a single in its own right. Great work so far though! Keep it up!--L1A1 FAL (talk) 00:59, 30 November 2010 (UTC)
Checked over Rust in Peace
[edit]I just checked over Rust in Peace, found a couple typos. Only other thing I can think of that you might want to check on is in the 'Writing & recording' section, you have a quote of Dave Mustaine talking about the title, and there are quotes within quotes there. Now, I think that the format for that is "example 'example' example" with single quotes for quotes within quotes, but I could be wrong, and because of that, I didn't want to do anything there. Other than that, looks good to me.--L1A1 FAL (talk) 01:54, 30 November 2010 (UTC)

Any reason why you removed your post on my talk page? I mean, I would've placed it at GAN if someone could help me with the dead links. GamerPro64 17:55, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
- By all means, you can help out with the article. It would be nice if I get another person to help out with turning it into a Good Article. GamerPro64 18:23, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
- Well no. I don't think its a good idea to remove some of the chart information just yet. I was told that you would need a Bilboards account to look through the archives. Do you have one? GamerPro64 18:56, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
- Yeah, when I clicked on the link, I got 404'd. GamerPro64 19:28, 23 October 2011 (UTC)
- Ok, instead of relying on Billboard, we should find other countries charts, like the ones I found at The Emancipation of Mimi. GamerPro64 19:39, 23 October 2011 (UTC)

Hey
[edit]Good to see you around again. Thanks for the compliment! Getting Thirteen to GA status is the ultimate goal, but it's not ready just yet. I'm figuring about 2 more weeks until all the charting positions come out and then I might put it up for nomination. If you want to help out with it though, you're more than welcome to. Like I said though, the only topic matter really missing is just chart positions and sales, etc. I want to improve the wording a little and get reviews from Blabbermouth.net and Brave Words & Bloody Knuckles too though.
Anyway, welcome back to the fold!--L1A1 FAL (talk) 01:34, 4 November 2011 (UTC)
- Good to know I'm on the right track with the refs. I tried to nominate Endgame for GA again a few months back and the refs were one of the things that I pretty much got shot to hell over.
- I kind of feel the same way about the lead. I have been tweaking it, but leads really aren't my strong point. I just try to copy the format from other GAs. If I could get away with it, I'd prefer to just leave the song section in the same format it is in, but that will have to be worked out I guess. I originally had no interest in adding audio samples, but since you brought it up, if you wanna upload a sample of "Public Enemy No. 1" or "Sudden Death" that would be a good addition (you'd have to do that though, haven't done audio uploads on here).
- I was just gonna work on it as an 'in-progress' deal until I got the chart positions, so within about 2 weeks I would say if all goes well, this could be on it's way to a review.--L1A1 FAL (talk) 15:44, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
- As far as I'm concerned, you have free reign on Lulu. I actually bailed out of the that article a few days ago. I tried to get semi-protection on it due to unhelpful IP edits, but that was being ignored, and I got tired of removing "The Table" from Hetfield's musical credits. If you want, I can re-add it to my watchlist and start doing stuff on there again. I agree though about the lead, as I recall, it wasn't much more than a couple of sentences and a composition section would be a very good idea on that one as, like you said, that's the center of the controversy there.
- Admittedly, I added a number of those reviews, but it's probably a good idea to cut the number down a bit - however you want to do it.--L1A1 FAL (talk) 19:16, 5 November 2011 (UTC)
- Nice job on the lead there. Only issue I noticed was a misplaced comma. Nice touch adding the sample, though it would probably fit better aligned on the right. Nice job compressing the reviews, as well - less of them there, but still gives a decent idea of percentage of good to bad reviews--L1A1 FAL (talk) 21:54, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

Sean Combs gan
[edit]Hello. Sorry you had to get involved, but there are significant unresolved issues with that article. I have withdrawn the nomination as premature. Gimmetoo (talk) 05:47, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
No worry. I thought they could have been worked out with alot of work but whatever see you as best. Bruce Campbell (talk) 05:53, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for your review; the comments may be helpful. Gimmetoo (talk) 06:03, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
- Again, I'm sorry you have to experience this, but below is a window into one aspect of the problems with this article. An editor with 6 edits to the article talks about "standing" and calls the primary contributor "disruptive" [2] [3], while neither this editor nor the nominator have responded to a content issue raised on the talk page a week ago. Gimmetoo (talk) 09:23, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
Gimme is not the nominator and has no standing to withdraw a nomination by someone else. I've fixed it. Br'er Rabbit (talk) 07:44, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hi, Bruce. I have once again restored the nomination; I am the one who nominated the article, and intend to see it through. Gimmetoo, although at one point a primary contributor to the article, has not edited it since May. The article has changed a lot since then, and deserves promotion. I am working through your concerns right now and will be done later today. Sorry about the confusion. -- Dianna (talk) 15:55, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
- Hi again! I have gone through all the recommendations on the nomination page, and the article is ready for another look. Thanks so much! -- Dianna (talk) 17:51, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
- I clearly said the article was not ready, that it had sourcing issues, and I alluded to the content disputes. This should have been a simple close per WP:GACR #3 and #5. Since you have "passed" the article over the explicit statement from the main editor that the article is not ready, a few words from you explaining why are in order. Gimmetoo (talk) 23:42, 29 July 2012 (UTC)
- I see you have been editing. I tried to steer you out of this mess, but you made yourself part of it by your own choice, and you need to provide a responsive explanation for "passing" the article. Gimmetoo (talk) 05:25, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
- First off, nothing according to WP:GACR states anything about how the article should be quickfailed. You cited #3 and #5 but both are incorrect: there are no cleanup banners anywhere on the article. There's an edit lock on the article but no where in GACR does it state that qualifies an article for a quickfial, and there are infact dozens of articles that have passed GA reviews with that in mind. Doesn't go against 5 either, as Diddy hasn't been in the news for months over any significant event. So you're completely wrong on both of those points, and neither do you have the ability to withdraw a member's GA nomination who has put 30 edits into the article.
- I did a look at the editing history of the article and there hadn't been any view-able controversy in any of the recent edits. Nothing to make the article unstable in anyway and since it's passing, the article has been a fine state. The article is fine.
- Just because you are the "primary contributor" of the article, doesn't mean a thing. Nor does that allow you to attempt to control the article or its standing. That's WP:Ownership of articles. Dianna, the editor of the article has put in 30 edits into the article over a length of a week, more than enough work to mean she should be able to nominate the article if she wants to. In what manner are you the "primary contributor"? Just because you have 300 edits in the article? 300 edits and you couldn't get the article up to GA standard and yet Dianna managed the same thing with a mere 30 edits?
- Lastly, I do not have to answer to anything. Telling me I have to answer to you repeatedly is WP:Harassment. I reviewed the article, felt it passed the GA standard, and passed it. It's not a Featured Article and its GA standing is determined by the judgement of who reviewed it, and in my judgment the article is good enough to pass off as a Good Article. If you feel that is not what the article deserves, stop bothering me and nominate the article for Good Article de-listing and waste everyone's time further. Instead of pestering editors who attempted to improve the quality of an article. Either way, stop bothering me because I've been a very busy lady lately. Bruce Campbell (talk) 06:02, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
- Tbank you for putting your view on record. Will you be willing to make a statement should this go to GA review? Gimmetoo (talk) 05:09, 4 August 2012 (UTC)

Late Registration
[edit]User:LupEnd007 made some changes to the article here that I reverted; although there seemed to be some constructive additions, a lot was unexplained and seemed like original research. Since you're nominating the article, I thought I'd let you know and see if he was interested/serious about his changes. Dan56 (talk) 05:34, 24 August 2012 (UTC)
I believe his edits are in good faith. Looking through the differences in the two edits, it seems as if he's just altering words for the most part, like changing "sought out" to "enlisted", "second effort" to "second album", etc. Some of which does seem productive. The most notable change that I saw was that he added a content description to "Hey Mama", which for the most part seemed fine to me. English is not my first language, so sometimes more intricate phrasing escapes me, so I appreciate any help with proofreading that is offered.
Looking through his user page it appears he's been editing Kanye related articles for a long time now, and if he was serious with the intention of the edits, I would welcome a potential Kanye-related article proofreader. Barring some guidance, of course. Bruce Campbell (talk) 06:16, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

[edit]Would it be too soon to nominate this article for GA? I tried a month ago, but an editor removed it for that reason. Dan56 (talk) 00:48, 31 August 2012 (UTC)
Request
[edit]Hi. If possible, could you leave some comments at Wikipedia:Featured article candidates/Nightswimming (Awake)/archive1. Thank you so much. TBrandley 20:02, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
I gladly would. Give me a bit of time. Bruce Campbell (talk) 21:49, 2 September 2012 (UTC)
"Terms of Endearment"
[edit]I absolutely adore what you did with the article! It's awesome to have another X-Phile working on this stuff. I gathered from you and Grapple's convo (yeah, I'm a wall creeper) that you want to get it to FA? I think that's an awesome idea, and if you need any help, I'd love to be of assistance. Season six has a special place in my heart, and you made that article awesome.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 01:34, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
Thank you very much! Err, yeah actually. I have never done an FA before. From what I've gathered you have alot of experience in that particular field, so if you could just look through it briefly, that could be alot of help. I don't think my prose was exactly perfect. Bruce Campbell (talk) 01:46, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
- Sure thing. This weekend I'll be busy studying for a Latin test, but next week I hope to hop back into high gear. Just one quick suggestion: I would switch all the page references from the simple "Author, p. Page" to ones that are like this, that have the year and have hyperlinks (Ex. "Smith (2002), pp. 23–45"). If you aren't comfortable, I can do it for you, as it shouldn't take too long. Other than that, it looks good. I'll try to give it a copy-edit later sometime, but other than that, I'm really excited with what's going down with the Project!--Gen. Quon (Talk) 02:47, 14 September 2012 (UTC)
- I think I've formatted the references correctly now. Bruce Campbell (talk) 03:50, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
Daughters (Nas song)
[edit]Hi. I noticed your work with The Don (Nas song) to get it to GA and was wondering if you'd be interested in further improving Daughters (Nas song). I started working on it just to get an appropriate space to put in a music sample. Dan56 (talk) 00:49, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
Hmm. I didn't really do much in regards to The Don's GA position, I just reviewed the article. The Daughters article seems pretty damn good now though. I cant really help too much but I'll review it for you if it gets nominated. Bruce Campbell (talk) 01:57, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
- Whoops, My bad. I overlooked "reviewer" at The Don's talk page. Dan56 (talk) 02:04, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
- I do certainly like Nas though. Bruce Campbell (talk) 02:08, 15 September 2012 (UTC)
GA
[edit]Woops! I thought I had definitely finished the GA's. Apologies, I'll have a look over it now. Jennie | ☎ 21:02, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
- I had finished! I just hadn't passed it! Sorry again, I've been quite busy recently. Jennie | ☎ 21:05, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for the time. Bruce Campbell (talk) 21:49, 25 September 2012 (UTC)
Power
[edit]I made some comments on the talk page. The prose could be improved a bit, but I think the article is probably GA level for what it does.
I also expressed some wishes for more information, e.g. quotations from the song and analysis of song structure, which seems usual for GA and certainly for FA articles; I understand that such analyses may be difficult to find for such a recent song.
Again, my apologies for the delay in the GA review. Kiefer.Wolfowitz 15:09, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
No that's fine, thank you for the time. I'm busy a bit now but I'll address the complaints shortly. Bruce Campbell (talk) 16:50, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
- I've had good experiences with open-ended discussions of GANs before, and so I haven't written down a formal evaluation. Pedagogical people get excited about such formative evaluations.... :) I can do the formal evaluation at the close. Cheers, Kiefer.Wolfowitz 17:05, 26 September 2012 (UTC)
- The situation-normal-all-fucked-up has become subnormally all-fucked-up at ArbCom, and I've neglected finishing the GAN review. If it's an emergency, let me know and I can quickly finish it, after spot checking some references and proof-reading the rest. Otherwise, I'd like to finish it by the end of the week. Kiefer.Wolfowitz 18:14, 22 October 2012 (UTC)
Just a heads up: your nomination is on the verge of failing due to lack of response; your last posting was September 4. BlueMoonset (talk) 16:07, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
I forgot all about that crappy article. No, go ahead, fail it. Bruce Campbell (talk) 16:28, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
Hi. Could you reconsider the above FLC list, as consensus has now been reached at the article's talk page. Thank you. TBrandley 23:36, 1 October 2012 (UTC)
- I've changed my oppose. Bruce Campbell (talk) 02:38, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
"The Return of Harmony"
[edit]I saw you put that up for GA; I was the one who made that page, so it made me happy. Haha, are you a brony too?--Gen. Quon (Talk) 03:00, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
- Lmfao. I was literally so bored that I was going around looking for something to entertain myself with, and found that article in what I consider to be in pretty good state. I figured what the hell. lol Bruce Campbell (talk) 12:18, 5 October 2012 (UTC)
- Haha, darn. So close. Well, best of luck to you! I had a hell of a time keeping it from being deleted when I first made it, for some random reason.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 19:50, 5 October 2012 (UTC)

Thank you very much for such a strict, thorough review! Really helped to improved the article. I've addressed the comments to my knowledge. Bruce Campbell (talk) 05:51, 8 October 2012 (UTC)
Personality Tags
[edit]I have no idea what those are, but I think Grapple took care of them. I replaced the Crowley pic with a different one that is in the public domain. Granted, it isn't as spooky as the other one was, but it works.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 16:28, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, Grapple X was kind enough to figure it out. The guidelines advised against manually adding the personality rights thingy, but I guess not. It's all worked out now (I hope) but thanks kindly for the time. Bruce Campbell (talk) 16:59, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
- Added a copy-edit request for the article at WP:GOCE/REQ. That's helped in the past to get some of my own articles through there (the first took three tries so don't worry about trying again). To be fair, prose is the only real concern as comprehensiveness, image use and the like are all solid. Besides picking up what Malleus and Graham have specifically listed, a further look by a GOCE copy-editor should smooth it all out for the next run round. GRAPPLE X 23:45, 12 October 2012 (UTC)
- Oh please, no further involvement of your time is remotely necessary, and that goes for Gen. Quon aswell. You two lovely people have already expended more than enough of your time on my project. If the entire FA process is based around grammar lessons and anal nitpicking, I would much rather return to spending my time with GAs, which are actually fun and productive. I'm much more of a fan of the 'you tell me what's wrong with the article, and I'll go fix it' process. Bruce Campbell (talk) 00:06, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- It's not that I'm giving up on the article; I'm definitely going to continue to fight for it and I'm far from quitting. I'll definitely re-nominate it. It's just that the reward-to-work ratio is severely lacking (or is that lacking severely?). Bruce Campbell (talk) 00:06, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

- Yeah, the work that goes into the leap from GA to FA is startlingly big when you realise it first. It gets a little more streamlined as things go on, as you pick up on things that come up each time. But with a few sets of comments to work from and a copy-edit request lodged the next time should go much easier. GRAPPLE X 00:20, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- Oh, I definitely knew that the difference between GAs and FAs was a substantial one. I just didn't think the difference was so significant that it removed any enjoyment from the process. Lmfao. What a hot mess. Bruce Campbell (talk) 00:30, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- And how many editors can say they got 5 supports from established editors on their first FA? That's some Rocky Balboa stuff right there. I would definitely cite this as a positive experience at the end of the day. Thanks for all the support. Bruce Campbell (talk) 02:01, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

- Yeah, that was a bit crazy. But it looks like Truthkeeper88 gave it a nice copy-edit, as did I. So maybe one more peer-review and it should be good to go. I still think they were being quite rude about the comments. I'm fine if they have some grammar issues they want fixed; go ahead and list them. But them just saying we don't understand English makes me mad (and it's happened on several articles I've worked on).--Gen. Quon (Talk) 03:18, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- I think the main issues, other than my own lack of experience and patience, was a lack of more critical commentary in the article. The fact pretty glaring problems weren't pointed out until that point in the process is kinda shocking really. Like, as a 20 year old with no formal degree in language, most of the article read fine. But when they mention and cite specific instances of poor prose, suddenly it sticks out to me. lol I appreciated the more critical opinions, as that's what the article really needed. That's not to say a certain editor involved isn't a total jerk, which he most certainly is, but he has an impressive grasp of prose. Bruce Campbell (talk) 03:32, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- You got mail. GRAPPLE X 03:38, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

- Hey, I don't think we've interacted before, but I hope you won't be too discouraged by this. FAC is sometimes quite vexing, but oftentimes it can be enjoyable, as well. Some reviewers can be pretty blunt, but don't feel bad--they can find fault in virtually anyone's writing. Once you get past the gruff exterior they can be quite nice. Alright, well, hope things work out regardless. Mark Arsten (talk) 03:52, 13 October 2012 (UTC)

FAC comment
[edit]Hi. Would you like to comment at the FAC page for The Way I See It (album)? Any comments or suggestions would be appreciated, as it's been a little slow there. Dan56 (talk) 04:40, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- Yeah, the whole "initial comment; I'm thinking about opposing this article but won't actually do anything for a week" shtick must have frightened away other editors. While I think the article is up to your usual standard; the very first thing I noticed is the accolades graph, and generally aren't these things suggested to be turned into prose instead? I know it can be hard to make "some publication said so and so about said album and put it somewhere on some list" again and again read interestingly, but it's somewhat jarring in context to the rest of the article. Bruce Campbell (talk) 05:05, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- I would review more of your material but the problem is usually when I read your articles, I literally cant think of anything I would improve. I would comment on the FAC of course, but I'm not sure what I could bring in terms of commentary about the article beyond shallow comments like "add more visuals". Bruce Campbell (talk) 05:11, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- I could limit the table to only the more notable publications. You can present this issue, along with anything else, major or minor, at the FAC page and decide "support"/"oppose". That might encourage anybody that got scared off if that's the case. Dan56 (talk) 16:45, 13 October 2012 (UTC)
- Doing. Bruce Campbell (talk) 17:28, 14 October 2012 (UTC)
- Done. Though I would suggest getting a spotcheck done sooner than later. Bruce Campbell (talk) 18:12, 14 October 2012 (UTC)

Megadeth album GA reviews
[edit]Hey, thanks for getting to them so quick! Over the next couple of days, I'll do some of the changes you mentioned to see how they work out. That was actually a good thing you mentioned about Mustaine's book - I had actually completely forgot about that. Unfortunately, I do not own it, but interestingly, I think it is in the local library, so that might still be an option... As for the credit cites, yeah, I guess i did get a little carried away there, but that's an easy fix for both. On, TWNAH, though Heather Kecker is not credited for her voice parts in the liner notes, so there will still need to be a separate cite there. In regards to the organization of sections and stuff, this is still kinda unfamiliar territory for me, but I tried to follow roughly the same pattern that's present on United Abominations, Endgame, and Thirteen, but at the same time, I used Slayer's Diabolus in Musica as a rough guide, since that is relatively short, but rated as a GA.--L1A1 FAL (talk) 01:56, 16 October 2012 (UTC)
- I do have a question/issue regarding the TWNAH article review. You mentioned about using Mustaine's book as a source, and I went to get it at the library today. However, I don't really see much discussion about the album. The album is hardly referred to, and the title is only mentioned once in a paragraph noting how Mustaine's authorship of nearly all the material did not help band unity. Is it possible that you have a different edition of the book? Because the copy I am using is a first-edition hardback printing, and I know sometimes subsequent paperback printings will sometimes include extra chapters and whatnot (though usually to cover the period after the first edition was published). --L1A1 FAL (talk) 02:13, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
- Also, I over the next few days, I will be only sporadically editing, if active at all, so I will probably not really resume serious work on either article until the weekend. --L1A1 FAL (talk) 04:40, 17 October 2012 (UTC)
Update
[edit]Hey, I have made some changes to The World Needs a Hero that I would like you to take a look at. Thanks.--L1A1 FAL (talk) 18:37, 20 October 2012 (UTC)
- Ugh, sorry for the delay(s). Passed that article, though I just shifted things around a bit. Bruce Campbell (talk) 00:42, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
