Talk:Rude Boy (Rihanna song)/GA2

GA Reassessment
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.''

This discussion has been closed and the article has passed GAR.

I've requested GAR for this article because the GAN was passed in haste and without any constructive points to address, apart from 'suggestions that wouldn't affect it's GA status.' I'd like this article to be properly reviewed by an experienced editor who is well acquainted with the GAN Criteria. (For the discussion about the white-wash review, see Wikipedia talk:Good article nominations, for the GAN review in question, see Talk:Rude Boy (song)/GA1. Thanks.

 * On February 2, 2010, Rihanna taped and performed a number of songs for "AOL Music Sessions", which were made available to view on the AOL website on February 23, 2010.[40][41] The set included Rihanna's most recent hit singles "Russian Roulette" and "Hard", as well as "Take a Bow" and a stripped down version of "Disturbia".[40] --> What is this part exactly talking about? I don't see "Rude Boy" anywhere
 * ✅ It's talking about her set on AOL Music Sessions.
 * She also performed the song on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, which aired on Presidents day on February 15, 2010, which featured Rihanna wearing black shorts and a leather visor. --> How is this exactly notable?

 * The song debuted on the US Billboard Hot 100 at number sixty-four, and peaked at number one in its fourth week for five consecutive weeks, giving Rihanna her sixth number one song on the chart. The song also topped the US Pop Songs and Dance/Club Play Songs charts. --> Classic example of WP:UNDUE. A short line saying that this peaked at #1 on the Hot 100 would do. Genre charts are not that important to be listed in lead.

"Change to During an interview on the television show, Alan Carr: Chatty Man in February 2010, the host asked Rihanna about the song's lyrics, with particular emphasis on the line 'Come here Rude Boy, Boy, can you get it up?/Come here Rude Boy, Boy, is you big enough?'[9] Rihanna explained: 'When we wrote the song, it was kind of a freestyle ...

 * After Australia, the section abruptly ends. What happened to the song in teh other nations? It did not chart? There should atleast be a proper summary. AGain, see "4 Minutes"
 * And you don't need to give an example of what you mean, I know what you mean. And I think proper prose should be used over a summary. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  23:13, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * If you know what I mean, why haven't you added it? And usage like 2x Platinum is wrong. It should be in words and two-times platinum. Why is platinum being made capital anyways?

Live

 * Rihanna performed "Rude Boy" --> Repeated in second line
 * ✅ Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!
 * the latter of which she was joined on stage by American rapper Young Jeezy, who is featured on the song. --> Unnecessary
 * You think it's unnecessary to say that Jeezy joined her to perform Hard? How? It's describing what happened instead of being a list of cold facts. I shortened the sentence. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!
 * That would have been appropriate for the "Hard" live performance section but here it is undue.
 * ✅ Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  14:27, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
 * At various points, you describe the dresses, but wqhat exactly is it adding to the encyclopedia? She's not Gaga that the dresses are part of the performance and are critically analyzed... so then?
 * It adds description about the performance. You can't have one set of rules for Gaga and another set for everyone else.
 * Actually it is true. If there is no analysis of a performance, there is no point in going into details about dresses. That constitutes as fancruft. See the FAC of The Emancipation of Mimi.
 * ✅ There are only two instances now where i describe what she is wearing, as news publications had commented on them. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  14:27, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Same follows for the rest of the section. If you can't find notability of these performances, there's no point in having them.
 * Each paragraph has a purpose. The first gives performance details before it was released as a single, the second is single promo performances, and the third is performances since it has been released. That is how I structured it and I'm keeping them as they are. You wrote less than one line on the Alejandro article saying that Gaga performed the song at Radio 1's Big Weekend. Where is the notbility with that? Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  23:57, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * WP:WAX accusations doesn't ring my bell since you are missing the main point. It's about establishing the notability of it. And I'm pretty sure each Rihanna performance is accompanied by some critical info.
 * I think all of the performances have notability. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  14:27, 19 September 2011 (UTC)

Much work is needed for this one. Pretty poor I must say. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 17:12, 18 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I don't think it's as "poor" as what you say. It could be a lot worse, and I have reviewed a lot worse. In fact, you have passed worse. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  00:08, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
 * It is indeed poor. When each and every section needs work, that implies the article was underprepared and is not on par. Remember, a GA or FA review is not for pointing out obvious errors and MoS issues. It is understood that PR and copy-edits should have removed them earlier. And by the way, this attitude of bringing up my work in every instant is not exactly helping the process, and neither your articles are they? So refrain from making such comments. Your snarky remarks will never benefit you anywhere, neither here, nor FAC or FLC. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 04:52, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
 * So you are saying the charts table should be formatted like how it is on Cheers (Drink to That)? Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  12:31, 25 September 2011 (UTC)

 * One more thing left, Calvin you need to add accessdate parameter like here. We are fine to roll then. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 09:02, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * No, you don't have to "dummy edit" again Legolas. I clearly saw what you wanted me to do as I did it for both the Charts table and End of Year table. Don't assume because I say something won't work, that I don't know what I am doing, because I clearly do know how to do what you just asked. But the way the Certifications table has been coded, you code does not work and distorts the table when previewed. And I've done the accessdate parameters. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  11:08, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

(→) You need a lesson on your attitude Calvin. First of all, you have absolutely no clue about content editing, about policies and about what works and doesn't. Second of all, you crib about everything. In FAC, in FLC, in GAN, everywhere. And its not me who has noticed this. Nathan, Orane, Mark and countless other people have noticed this and are disappointed. You should be learning from this, not trying to throw an attitude because, frankly, you are a poor editor. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 12:30, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * You should watch how you phrase things Legolas. You may mean something to come across differently to how you intend, but words on a screen can be interpreted very differently to how you want it to be read, and I am not the only person who thinks this and thinks you have a poor attitude toward other people, but unlike you, I am not dropping other people in it. And I don't even know who Orane and Mark are, so how can people have an idea as to what sort of person they think I am when they don't even know me? I didn't like how you assumed I had done something wrong without checking it yourself, but when someone else raised the issue and said that it didn't work, you believed them and checked, and found that the code did not work. But whatever, I'm not getting into this again. And I know I'm not a poor editor, at least I actually do things by myself without having to depend on others co-editing with me and letting others do the majority of the work. But regardless of this, all of your points here have been addressed. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  12:51, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

This is staying as it explains everything about the development of the song and this is the only site that has the full interview with the section of the video which explains the song. This needs to stay. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!
 * The video links to Dailymotion, it fails reliability like the website. Please see WP:COPYVIO. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 15:06, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Well, it's a shame, because than interview is crucial for the songs background. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  15:20, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * You can find out when that interview aired, host of the interview, location etc, and use cite episode for it. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 15:55, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * What do you mean by "needs consistency problems"? That makes no sense.
 * Maintain consistency between the reference from the same publisher. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 15:06, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Ref 95, 96, 97, 99, 100, 101 all have the same italicization problem
 * ✅ Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!
 * Ref 42, doesnot support the claim it makes, thus making File:Rihanna rudeboy.jpg fail reliability.
 * But clicking on Keith Haring does support that that was his style of art. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!
 * That's not the point of adding a reference. The comment talks about the inclusion of a specific type of art in that specific scene, which is not supported. Thus failing original research. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 15:06, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * File:Rude Boy.ogg --> The steel drum text supporting it is original research.
 * I didn't do this, Jivesh is the one to speak to. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  15:00, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

 * The Billboard review doesn't say that steel drums were used at the foundation of the song. Do you even know what foundation of a song is? — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 15:27, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Steel drums are a welcome presence on the production. I saw this phrase,. Anyway, can you please explain? ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 15:39, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Does that mean its used in the foundation of the song? That's original research. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 15:42, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay but i requested an explanation? ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 15:45, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * What is there to explain? Its as simple as Christmas is on 25th what the reviewer is saying. The part added in the article is OR. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 15:46, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * It is as simple as Christmas for you not for me. What does a sentence like "as its foundation" mean? How can it be used? ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 15:53, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * It cannot be, coz there were no steel drums at the song's foundation. It was just the ska. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 15:56, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I know. That is why i wrote Okay above. I wanted to ask when we can phrase it as such. Does the reviewer need to state it exactly as such? ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 15:58, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Of course he she needs to, otherwise its our own interpretation. There in comes OR. I feel that steel drums are mainly on the bridge of the song, but that's my observation. I cannot add it right? — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 16:01, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay. Thanks for your explanation. ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫) 16:02, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

Can't the Background section be expanded further? A quick search gave me two interviews with Ester Dean! <b style="white-space:nowrap; text-shadow:gray 5px 3px 1px; font-family:Arial; color:#4169E1;">Novice7</b> (<b style="font-family:Arial; color:#B0C4DE;">talk</b>) 13:34, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Surely they can be expanded. Good links Novice. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 13:42, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Ester Dean and Makeba Riddick are two different people. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  15:01, 29 September 2011 (UTC)
 * The background section is enough now that it can be splitted from the composition. Also the composition can be further enhanced with the chord analysis from Musicnotes. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 15:27, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Musicnotes please. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 16:14, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Give me a chance to see comments Legolas. I do have a real life. I don't know how to read music so I can't add it. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  16:17, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * If you need help, you can ask for it. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 16:19, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I know what you mean and what it looks like, I've seen it in other articles, but I don't know how to read it on the website or how to write it here. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  16:22, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * I will add it for you. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 16:26, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * OKay thanks. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  16:39, 30 September 2011 (UTC)

Further observations
Can you close this now. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon! 12:45, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * No. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 15:27, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * And why is that? Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  16:03, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * There are still issues cropping up whenever I look into the article. I will close it when I feel the article has improved to be a GA. — <i style="color:blue;">Legolas</i> ( talk 2 me ) 16:14, 30 September 2011 (UTC)


 * Novice comments
 * Ref #53: Idolator (website) --> Idolator.
 * ✅ Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!
 * Ref #26 and #27: same website, but inconsistent publishers.
 * I can't change 26 because of how it is formatted in the charts table, it's pre-coded. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!
 * Same with Refs #30 and #31, #32. <b style="white-space:nowrap; text-shadow:gray 5px 3px 1px; font-family:Arial; color:#4169E1;">Novice7</b> (<b style="font-family:Arial; color:#B0C4DE;">talk</b>) 13:21, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * They all have the same publisher. But 30 has a work parameter that I can't change because as above, it is a pre-coded source. Calvin  &bull; Na Na Na C'mon!  16:03, 30 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Comment- IMO this article was a GA when I reviewed it. Now it is even better than that and this review should be closed. The things the reviewer is asking to be fixed constitute FA candidate requirements. This article completely meets the requirements of GA. I would take this to FA nominations. This is one of the best written articles I've seen.  TRLIJC19   (  talk  ) 23:53, 7 October 2011 (UTC)

As the article has improved significantly since its first GA review and all posted issues seem to be resolved, this article has been closed as kept. <b style="white-space:nowrap; text-shadow:gray 5px 3px 1px; font-family:Arial; color:#4169E1;">Novice7</b> (<b style="font-family:Arial; color:#B0C4DE;">talk</b>) 16:30, 19 October 2011 (UTC)
