 * I will review this article. --⇒ T A  P  19:06, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

Lead
 * Entire
 * 'He uses hashtags ' ⇒ 'He uses hashtags ' — hashtags is a redirect.
 * Is there anything wrong with that? Changed anyway. Hawkeye7 (talk) 23:12, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'At one point his fans accounted for three percent of all Twitter traffic' — what point in time? 'At one point' does not say much to me.
 * Added date. Hawkeye7 (talk) 23:12, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * '... make topics about him like #INDIANEEDSBELIEVETOUR #biebsinparis #JustinbieberinHolland trending' — I'd rather not have that in the lead, topics trend all the time and looks a bit messy.
 * Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 23:12, 9 June 2012 (UTC)

Introduction
 * Paragraph 1
 * '...collaborations he was involved with and topping the chart' — which chart? UK, US?
 * Switched to indefinite article. Hawkeye7 (talk) 23:12, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'His decisions regarding which followers to retweet is a random decision' — clarify please?
 * Leave it to Bieber. Hawkeye7 (talk)
 * 'For a brief time in 2011, Bieber quit Twitter' — I'd like a bit more than that. What date did he quit? When did he come back?
 * During April 2011. Added. Hawkeye7 (talk) 23:12, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'When Bieber makes a joke on Twitter about what he is doing, it often gets mistaken by people as the truth and ends up reported as true elsewhere' — the source (#13) says about a supergroup. Please explain in article.
 * The supergroup was just a joke, as explained in the source. Hawkeye7 (talk) 23:12, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'Author Mike Skinner in "The Story of the Streets" says based on the Twitter metrics, "all roads lead to Justin Bieber"' — says ⇒ said. "The Story of the Streets" ⇒ italics needed, as it is title. However, not that notable — could be removed.
 * Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 23:12, 9 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Paragraph 2
 * 'He has also tweeted about the Kony 2012 campaign' — when did he tweet that?
 * March and April 2012 Hawkeye7 (talk) 00:27, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'He also tweeted about the passing of Whitney Houston' — when did he tweet that?
 * February 2012 Hawkeye7 (talk) 00:27, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'Bieber has also tweeted against texting and driving' — when did this happen, eh?
 * Not while he was driving we hope. Hawkeye7 (talk) 00:27, 10 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Paragraph 3
 * '... following back over 122,987 As of 24 April 2012 which allows fans' — As ⇒ as. Should not be capitalised.
 * Tricky, but done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 00:27, 10 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Paragraph 4
 * 'After hitting the 6 million Twitter follower total in November 2010, Bieber gave a shout out to his followers, saying "6 MILLION OF THE GREATEST FANS ON EARTH ON TWITTER!!!! THANK U"[23] Following this news being picked up, #6millionbeliebers became a trending topic on Twitter' — only include higher ones in my sight.
 * 'When he passed the 11 million follower count' — when?
 * '... he tweeted "#11MillionBeliebers! I LOVE YOU ALL!! THANK YOU....tonight was already a fun great night and now it is even better. THANK U THANK U THANK U' — cut quote with an ellipsis, I don't need a full tweet which is easily researchable.
 * 'In December 2011, following Drew's dismissal from The X Factor' — Drew-who? Which X Factor? Normal? US? etc. Possibly removable.
 * Linked. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Quite short. Possibly could be merged into Paragraph 1.
 * Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

Technology, marketing and the media
 * Paragraph 1
 * Again; 'at one point accounted for three percent of all Twitter related traffic' — when?
 * September 2010 Hawkeye7 (talk)
 * 'This resulted in over 180 million page views for the service each month' — what is meant there? Twitter? @justinbieber? Explanation required.
 * Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'In 2010, Stephen Colbert, Drake and Justin Bieber were the three most re-tweeted celebrities on the site' — any specific time, or is this throughout the whole of 2010? Clarification required.
 * Tried to make this clearer. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'Immediately following Bieber updating, sixty responses to him are posted a second' — when? What is meant by that? Is what is trying to be said that when he posts something, sometimes [(when?)] he gets up to 60 responses in a second. Also, sixty ⇒ 60, as it is below 10.
 * MOS:NUMBER: numbers greater than nine, if they are expressed in one or two words, may be rendered in numerals or in words Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'In fact, he was named the top trending star on Twitter in 2010' — I don't like the way that is worded, removing 'In fact, ' would be suitable.
 * Re-worded. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'Bieber fans were upset with Twitter and tried to cheat the new algorithm by getting related words and mispellings connected to Bieber to trend including the words Twieber and Jieber' — remove? I see no point in saying that they were upset, because not all of them would be. Maybe 'some' would be more applicable in this case.
 * "Bieber fans" is indefinite; but added "some". Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'Bieber related topics would continue to trend on Twitter,[47] including MSG-ANNIVERSARY[48][49][50] Beliebers Love Jelena,[51] and "Happy Birthday Pattie"' — remove comma before reference 47, add comma after MSG-MSG-ANNIVERSARY, remove comma after 'Beliebers Love Jelena' due to the fact that 'and' follows after it.
 * Comment - the comma after Jelena is called a serial comma and is perfectly acceptable. Lady  of  Shalott  23:43, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Added comma after MSG-ANNIVERSARY Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'The Bieber topic in March 2011 he trended alongside the iPad and Charlie Sheen' — doesn't make sense in my sight. Maybe replace with 'In March 2011 the Bieber topic trended alongside Charlie Sheen and the iPad'?
 * Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:02, 10 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Paragraph 2
 * 'Klout gives his account a score of 100' — when was the score given? What does this mean? If in past-tense should be 'gave' or something suitable like that.
 * Switched to past tense. (Although of course it is the present.) Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Who knows, could go down! ⇒ T A  P  10:24, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Suggestion: Lady Gaga, the top followed on twitter? 'He was ahead of ...'
 * Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * '... search results for Bieber will pull in Bieber related Tweets in a search results section called "Latest News."' — remove period from quote of "Latest News" as there is not a period in the original quote.
 * Done. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Paragraph 3
 * 'Bieber's tweets drive sales online' — please remove, not required, and how if not removed?
 * Explained in the following sentence. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'Bieber was in an advertisement for Best Buy at a time when he had around 8 million followers' — when was this 'time'?
 * 'BET' ⇒ Black Entertainment Television.
 * Done. 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
 * 'On the other hand ...' — would like rewording please!
 * Added apostrophe. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Paragraph 4
 * '8.3% of tweets mentioning "bieber" were semi-automated and probably Twitter related spam' — when? Also, capitalise "Bieber" as it is a name.
 * Done. Not capitalising, as not really a name here. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Paragraph 5
 * 'His multiple tweets resulted in 32,000 responses each' — hmm, all of them?
 * According to the sources. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)

Followers and fans
 * Not much to say here, so it's okay

Twitter mishaps and controversy
 * Paragraph 1
 * 'Bieber, along with other celebrities, has been the subject of the false reports of his death on Twitter,[4][122][123] including reports in 2011' — what time in 2011?
 * The source says "the Summer of 2011", but the MOS does not let us say that, so it stays as 2011. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Paragraph 2
 * Fine.


 * Paragraph 3
 * Fine.


 * Paragraph 4
 * 'Bieber made a tweet that said “call me now.” and included a phone number for a Texas couple' — when? I know in March 2012 it says about the legal-stuff, but when was the tweet sent?
 * March 2012. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Paragraph 5
 * 'The death threats occurred for over a week' — specifically how long? 'over a week' could mean years, or 8 days.
 * Dropped sentence. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)


 * Paragraph 6
 * Grand-ish, nothing major.

I'll put this on hold for now so the issues are addressed. Regards, ⇒ T A  P  20:00, 9 June 2012 (UTC)
 * All points addressed. Hawkeye7 (talk) 01:54, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
