Merry Christmas!
Please i need your help. How can i re-write this "Jean and producer Toby Gad were strolling in Times Square when the former saw hot dogs that enticed her being peddled on the street. Jean was lamenting about how she was trying to stay away from the hot dogs and noted how if she were a boy, she could probably eat one without regrets. That led to her musing on how if she were a boy, she would be much better than her ex. Gad asked Jean to repeat her sentiments into a recorder. They returned to the studio and wrote the song in 15 minutes. Jean recorded her version of the song which was rejected by her record company." Jivesh boodhun (talk) 08:13, 24 December 2010 (UTC)

I love you for what you answered in my talk page, lol. The guy is such a loser, he goes page to page removing Forbes data. Xwomanizerx (talk) 05:33, 27 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I think that user should be reported. I just noticed vanadalism on Petergriffin's user page. And the edit warring on Britney Spears. ΣПDiПG – STΛЯT  17:28, 27 December 2010 (UTC)

 * I warned him, let me deal with the heiffer and keep me updated in case he vandalizes again. Will make admins block him soon than Britney announces the lead single. — Legolas ( talk 2 me ) 03:59, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Hello!
Hello Nathan. I was wondering if we could start working on TGIFY two or three days later. What do you say? I'll give you my e-mail when you're ready with scans. Hope it's not time consuming :) Novice7  |  Talk  11:46, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Yes, thank you. I was wondering I'm Your Baby Tonight too. It's okay. Novice7  |  Talk  03:22, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Actually I don't know how to send e-mail through wiki. Shall I paste it here? Novice7  |  Talk  07:42, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, is it this WP:EMAIL? Novice7  |  Talk  07:48, 29 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I guess it's "okay" then. And, lol, you're a genius :D Novice7  |  Talk  09:31, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Yes, I'll do a copy-edit, no problem at all. It may not be until next week at the earliest, but I'll definitely do it. --Sarastro1 (talk) 20:30, 28 December 2010 (UTC)
 * I've made a start. I had a look at the background section and copy-edited it. Also left a couple of queries on talk. See what you think so far. Don't worry about reverting anything which doesn't work, or if I've slipped any UK English in by mistake! --Sarastro1 (talk) 17:24, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I've finally done! There's quite a long list at the talk page but there is nothing else I have noticed. I'm not planning on saying anything else and I won't copy-edit or comment again unless you ask. I would suggest, if you address my points, put it up at peer review for someone else to have a look. If you really want it to be a FA, this would help as you get some more uninvolved eyes. Good luck! --Sarastro1 (talk) 14:33, 22 January 2011 (UTC)

Yes, and I even got mail from RIANZ with all Celine's certifications. But that was around 2005. I tried the same this year for Mariah but they ignored me. --Max24 (talk) 17:18, 31 December 2010 (UTC)

Hello again!
Hello Nathan! Welcome back! I read about your sister's marriage. I'm happy to hear that :) Btw, I finished up an article and am ready to start work on TGIFY. As a matter of fact, I found some interesting info about that (copyright infringement suit and others). And, "Brit" is back! HIAM is amazing!!! I hope she would dance like she used to do before, in the music video. Novice7  |  Talk  12:26, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

It's amazing. I'm still livid though, lol. What do you think? Xwomanizerx (talk) 13:17, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

Hello again!
Seems like you're back Nathan. I was waiting for you to come, so that we can start on the article. Where can we put the details of the lawsuit? On Background maybe? Also, can you please take a look at My Heart Is Calling and leave your comments at my talk? I read that Whitney is gonna start working on a new album by June. I hope she returns to singing like she used to during Waiting to Exhale - Preacher's Wife era (atleast). Novice7 |  Talk  14:30, 23 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Seeing some other articles, I feel it can go into Background. Novice7  |  Talk  12:14, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Sigh. Hmmm... Atleast I can hope :( Though WTE, Preacher's Wife and MLIYL era had her voice lost in drugs, they were good. I Look to You is not at all neat like before. I say I'm Your Baby Tonight era – The Best of Nippy ;) Oh well, I actually started work, but deleted it all as I felt it was not going properly.
 * You think so? Awww, thank you. I love the "Divas", you know :P Nippy & Mimi top the list, and Jessica, Ashanti, Carrie are just my likes, not "obsessions". To be frank, I'm not into Celine stuff that much, although I do like her That's the Way It Is, and the whole Miracle album. Novice7  |  Talk  16:30, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Nippy is her nickname from childhood (just like Mimi). I do like her, so I thought I'd call her Nippy :) I'll get into TGIFY. I need to find some reviews for it. Novice7  |  Talk  16:39, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, found something. The lawsuit was cleared in favor of Mimi -> Here. Novice7  |  Talk  16:52, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

(→) Yes, I noticed. Not only for new songs. But for credited samples, and even covers some file lawsuit :O I noticed that Mimi's voice is a little bit thin right now, and I'm pretty sure she would come back like EOM era! About Brit, some people get jealous when others use their material and gain sucess, lol :| Novice7  |  Talk  17:04, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Euro-dance? I really like her R&B-pop thing, and that's what made me love her. I agree that she needs a new sound, but don't think Euro-dance is a good choice. I mean, she is an amazing belter, and not like her. And, alcohol? Does she still take that? I wanna see another big comeback with tip-top shape and voice ;) Novice7  |  Talk  17:28, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Yes, me too. Alcohol is not good, I absolutely agree :) For the time being, I'll put her 1990-1999 albums on repeat (with Glitter in the middle) and along with Whit's 1985-1998 albums.. Novice7  |  Talk  17:36, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Talk:List of best-selling music artists
How is everything Nathan? I have a suggestion posted at Talk:List of best-selling music artists. Your thoughts would be appreciated.--Harout72 (talk) 20:30, 23 January 2011 (UTC)

You and Tbhotch‎
Hi there. I don't really know what's going on between the two of you, and nor do I particularly care, but perhaps we can all take a deep breath and tone it down as the personal attacks seem to be getting out of hand on both sides. Maybe take a walk? Thanks. Zachlipton (talk) 09:32, 26 January 2011 (UTC)
 * I thought you were above all this. Why the hell I see you repeating the same thing over and over again? I did not see a single out-of-bound comment at the FAC from Tbhotch or from Indopug also. I thought you wanted to refrain from the process right because it was unjust? Then when you have decided to submit an article again, be patient against any comments. If you start getting mad at Tbhotch for those simple just comments, you have no idea dude how sharp and pointy some reviewers can be. Those comments above crossed the limit of Civility and Personal attack. I should have placed a NPA template here, but I see Tbhotch already did it. Please cease all activities like this Nathan. Ultimately what is getting hurt is the article, and you as an editor. And by the way, don't ever do those 1-for-1 reviews. I'm keeping an eye on all of you. — Legolas ( talk 2 me ) 18:25, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Certification-levels
Hey Nathan, yeah I think we'll implement the percentages into the template one of these days. The certification levels are posted at the footnotes of The list of best-selling music artists. For the Netherlands see this official document I've received from NVPI, for Sweden see this official document, for Argentina they have their levels posted on their site, Switzerland has their levels posted too at the top of their page. For Austria, I still don't have any official documents, but based on my research, before approximately 2001 the levels were Platinum=50,000, Gold=25,000 both for albums and singles. Approximately, since 2001-2004 they were Platinum=40,000, Gold=20,000. Since 2005-2006 Platinum=30,000, Gold=15,000. Since 2007-present for albums Platinum=20,000, Gold=10,000, the levels for singles have not changed since approximately 2005. Hope all this helps:).--Harout72 (talk) 20:19, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Vision of Love
The article seems fine as a whole, but I don't feel I have the qualifications to comment on its overall quality. I'm more of a chart enthusiast, so I pay more attention to those sections and can provide some comments there. First, both the "Chart performance" and "Charts" sections contain info on certifications as well. A song's certification level has nothing to do with chart performance and so the header titles should reflect what's being presented. Some of the chart and certifications are not sourced within the "Chart performance", so just use from the "Charts" section to note them as well.

I don't really like the use of actual charts as sources, but I guess if it provides the information being claimed it serves its purpose. For example, the Canada charts indicate its debut position and in which week it reached #1, but the 17 week run is not confirmed by the chart source. It says it was on the chart for 17 weeks at the time, but how do I know it didn't stay on the chart for another week or two? I believe the UK chart info provides info similarly – I don't see where it says it stayed on the chart there for 12 weeks.

Finally, and I know that articles have received GA rating with them, I don't know how articles pass a GA review that have succession boxes. As is, you would have to source the dates it was at #1, each week that it was at #1, and each of its predecessors and successors as being #1 before and after "Vision of Love". At the very least, I think these should placed at the bottom of articles per WP:FOOTERS and, at best, should be removed altogether. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 17:57, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank God I Found You
Okay, I wanna let you know that I'll complete it soon. I couldn't find much reviews for the song. I'm still searching. Also, do you happen to know any source for Canadian singles chart (2000). I couldn't find that too :( Novice7  |  Talk  14:47, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

RE:Joint GA
Yeppppp sounds greatttt!! I'll get try to get started this weekend. Candy o32  - Happy New Year :) 21:58, 29 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Yeah I'm fine with those sections, although I might would need a lil bit of your help for the background. Candy  o32  - Happy New Year :) 00:53, 30 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Couln't help but notice, TEOM deserves better sections. Background should be cokmpletely focussing on the breakdown stuff. I have a strong feeling that a section called "Recovery" is in order, otherwise the background section will be too long. What do you guys think? — Legolas ( talk 2 me ) 12:34, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Recovery? What do you mean? I mean we have the basic sections broken down. I'm guessing the "Recovery" section will discuss about the whole Glitter and CB and how this album was a huge turn for her. Any tips?-- CallMe Nathan  &bull;  Talk2Me   18:54, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
 * No, the recovery section, or rather the emancipation section would explain what she had gone through, the fights, the rehabs, and how she came out from it. I think this is of utmost importance as it will provide a strong backbone as to why the song's were like that (forget the pun) on TEOM. The album name and its explanation is also predominantly important. The success of TEOM is good, but there needs to be a backbone to validate it. Hope you understnad. — Legolas ( talk 2 me ) 03:11, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I haven't been able to work on the project like I had planned, but I will start soon. Candy  o32  - Happy New Year :) 14:50, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Ughhh im sick a lil bit and don't feel well. So since I don't feel like doing much a nothinnn, I'll fix some Bieber articles I'm working on and begin TEOM :) Candy  o32  - Happy New Year :) 23:18, 4 February 2011 (UTC)


 * I was hoping to be done by now, but I have had some setbacks and still gathering sources. Bear with me lol. Candy  o32  - Happy New Year :) 02:31, 8 February 2011 (UTC)


 * I'm really trying hard to have it done by the end of the week. Is that fine? Candy  o32  15:06, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
 * I'm actually glad you said that, because I'd rather pace myself with it, since it is alot to deal with. But I'm going to try to have it done by Sunday. One thing with me & Wiki is that its hard for me to consistently work on one project, I have to dabble in ten each day lol. But yeah, that's the prob with GA's now, they are written hastily like the world is gonna end tomorrow (i.e The Queen Beyonce articles [no offense :O]). Candy  o32  22:23, 9 February 2011 (UTC)


 * I was supposed to collaborate with them on alot of the Sasha Fierce article but they were done and nominated for GA before I could even find information! And now the fallen GA/FA's of Beyonce have been revamped, and no offense, but I'd had rather seen them the way they were before. At least they are sustainable and held their own, but now they are just lots of meat of information without a backbone (i.e. this massive mess) But yep, TEOM article needs to be respective of the opus it is. Candy  o32  22:34, 9 February 2011 (UTC)


 * As much as I fuss at him, I try not to be hard on him because he actually means well, his devoted-ness to his Queen is just so strong lol. I just think it absurd that these articles are now being flaunted around by people as some of Wiki's best. Anyway, I'm going to go MIA to dabble into some Minajesty articles, before my attention deviates elsewhere. Candy  o32  22:45, 9 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi Nathan, and thanks for your review of the above FLC. If it's not too much trouble, do you think you can cap your resolved comments (using something like Template:Resolved comments)? That would make the nomination page shorter and easier for me to read. Thanks, Dabomb87 (talk) 23:20, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

TEOM
Hey Nathan :) I hid some of the non free media (album art and song samples) on your TEOM sandbox. Hope its okay. I hope you're not mad, as I've not completed TGIFY yet. I'll get on it, I promise. And, when EOM works begin, I'll do Fly Like a Bird :) Novice7  |  Talk  06:09, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Thank you!!! Yes, HIAM was great, and I don't wanna see another "Blackout", lol. Rihanna's moving too fast, I mean, she's just 22! I wish Brit would do some "Oops+Britney+In the Zone" stuff. And, yes, I do love Whitney, and I watched the BET show. She was okay, and her head voice is returning, but at a very slowww rate. Okay, I'll be free for two or three days, and I'll do TGIFY and start FLAB. Yes, WBT needs some minor fixes. Oh, this user is working on Whitney stuff too, and he/she helps a lot. Too bad he/she doesn't talk too much :| Novice7  |  Talk  09:44, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

 * It has received widespread coverage, and it's already a GA. The Music and Background is great, we have to expand the mv, reception sections and add a Live section if possible. And, maybe a Pr. What do you say? Novice7  |  Talk  06:32, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay. Then we can get on it soon. First, I've to finish up some of my articles (including TGIFY). What about we start on Monday? Novice7  |  Talk  06:44, 5 February 2011 (UTC)
