I will be doing my best to fully copy edit this article (as was requested at the GOCE Request page) - any pointers will be most welcome! AnthonyW90 (talk) 15:15, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Anthony, I've added a few useful links to your talk page. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 03:45, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for those! I had read through those, and will keep re-visiting them! AnthonyW90 (talk) 08:40, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Born in NYC[edit]

I just read a cite at the Gran Omar talk page that says Queen was born in NYC. Can the article be corrected? Thanks --Malerooster (talk) 18:00, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Allmusic, and many other sources say Añasco, Puerto Rico. [1][2] Other sources say "La cantante boricua" meaning "The Puerto Rican singer". [3]. — Diva Knockouts 18:14, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Just like Gran Omar, just because cites are calling them PR is different from where they were born, and what their nationality is. The ALlmusic says she was born in PR, but the other source says this is a misnomer, and that she was born in NYC. --Malerooster (talk) 18:29, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That's the only source that says she was born in NYC. Billboard also says Anasco, Puerto Rico. There would need to be more than just one source. — Diva Knockouts 18:32, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, I would agree that more sources are better. --Malerooster (talk) 19:03, 18 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So, Introduction and Early life are contradictories, as they say she was born in Añasco, and then in New York City. Even more, what about her studies. Did she go to school in New York or in Puerto Rico? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 150.214.94.247 (talk) 09:03, 5 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

The article and the reliable verifiable sources clearly state that she was born in Añasco, Puerto Rico and raised in NYC. Remember, just because Gran Omar stated that Ivy Queen was born in NYC doesn't mean that he is correct. Unless he provids proof such as birth certificate, his opinion is based on speculation.

Removed text[edit]

From Other media per WP:COATRACK:

These allow you to change or adjust her nails, hair, dress, and shoes including various colors for each.^[1] The doll includes several wigs and hairstyles along with outfits designed by Queen that exhibit what she wears at red carpets and performances.^[1] A box that simulates a stage with a microphone is also included.^[1] The doll, which sold 30,000 in its first round is slightly larger than a standard Barbie.^[1] Ivy Queen made the arrangement via her manager Luis Moreno, who was in China where he met with over 250 lines of dolls and managed a deal with the doll makers of Bratz.^[1]Felipe Durán, representative for Global Trading Partners commented that the doll was the success of Christmas that year explaining that they wanted the doll to reach all of the little girls because it is a collectible.^[2]
Wanting the book to be about the sacrifices she has made in her life while motivational, she says it will also talk about Queen being able to be confident on her looks and body image explaining "Obviously people see me as beautiful now, but when I started in music I looked like a little boy, and I hung out with all the other boys."^[3]

Unreferenced sentence, rem per WP:BLP: Ivy Queen appears with Prince Royce in the intro theme and video for the television program Dub Latino where they both have appeared and aired on mun2.

The Queen Is Here[edit]

Does anyone know if Llego La Queen and The Queen Is Here are supposed to be two different albums, with the second still set to be released someday? If The Queen Is Here has been replaced by Llego La Queen then there should not be two different articles. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 15:45, 15 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Doomsdayer520: On her YT channel she's got The Queen Is Here (Video Oficial) (published May 1, 2019) and Llego La Queen (Video Oficial) (for which I can't find a published date). But those are just singles. If you see the "Llego La Queen" Album on YT, both songs are on the album. So, I don't know... I looked at Spotify, Amazon and Rolling Stone magazine, and to me, everything indicates there is a "Llego La Queen" Album but only a "The Queen Is Here" song on that album, so ....--The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 19:14, 22 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the information. The album article The Queen Is Here has caused some controversy among editors who work on album articles because the record has apparently been planned for six years with no confirmed release date in sight. The very existence of a future album called The Queen Is Here may actually be hopeful speculation. But since now there really is the Llego La Queen release, and its title is Spanish for "The Queen Is Here", and it includes a song of that title, perhaps it is time to conclude that the long-rumored The Queen Is Here album has transformed into real-life release Llego La Queen. For that reason, I am going to be BOLD and conclude that The Queen Is Here is defunct and that article should be redirected to Llego La Queen. The redirect process preserves the history of the article, so if an album called The Queen Is Here ever happens for real, the text that everyone worked on can be revived. ---DOOMSDAYER520 (Talk|Contribs) 20:27, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Doomsdayer520: Good move. Thank you.The Eloquent Peasant (talk) 23:52, 23 October 2019 (UTC)[reply]

the noise[edit]

how was she in an "an all-male collective"?

needs to explain somehow or change to "an otherwise all-male collective" or the like. 2601:19C:527F:A660:2977:276F:9512:AB4E (talk) 02:49, 29 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
