GA promotion (What Now (song))
Congratulations! Review follows. Adam Cuerden (talk) 20:58, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

RE: Diamonds
I finished doing my best there. I'd recommend cutting down on the chart trajectory if it's not anything noteworthy such as the record-breaking or chart-debuting stuff. Otherwise, great article! If you have the time, I hope you can comment/vote at my FAC here for Confusion (album). It's a relatively short article to review. Dan56 (talk) 06:18, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
We are currently running a study on the effects of adding additional information to SuggestBot's suggestions. Participation in the study is voluntary. Should you wish to not participate in the study, or have questions or concerns, you can find contact information on the SuggestBot study page.

IMPORTANT CHANGES: We have modified the selection of articles SuggestBot suggests and altered the design to incorporate more information about the articles, as described in this explanation.

Note: All columns in this table are sortable, allowing you to rearrange the table so the articles most interesting to you are shown at the top. All images have mouse-over popups with more information.

Changes to SuggestBot's suggestions
We have changed the number of suggested articles and which categories they are selected from. The number of stubs has been greatly reduced, the number of articles needing sources doubled, and two new categories added (orphans and unencyclopaedic articles). We have also modified the layout of the suggestions and added sortable columns with various types of information about each article. The first two columns are:


 * Views/Day : Daily average number of views an article's had over the past 14 days.
 * Quality : Predicted article quality on a 1- to 3-star scale. Placing your cursor over the stars should give you a pop-up describing the article's quality (Low/Medium/High), current assessment class, and predicted assessment class.

The method we use to predict article quality also allows us to assess whether an article might need specific types of work in order to improve its quality. The work needed might not correspond to cleanup tags added to the article, since our method is not based on those. We have added five columns reflecting this work assessment, where a red X indicates improvement is needed. Placing your cursor over an X should give you a pop-up with a short description of the work needed. The five columns seek to answer the following five questions:


 * Content : Is more content needed?
 * Headings : Does this article have an appropriate section structure?
 * Images : Is the number of illustrative images about right?
 * Links : Does this article link to enough other Wikipedia articles?
 * Sources : For its length, is there an appropriate number of citations to sources in this article?

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. We appreciate that you have signed up to receive suggestions regularly, your contributions make Wikipedia better — thanks for helping!

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please let us know on SuggestBot's talk page. Regards from Nettrom (talk), SuggestBot's caretaker. -- SuggestBot (talk) 00:08, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

Questions about certifications and charts
Hi, I'm quite new at Wiki, but I try to do my best at learning all the rules ;) For example, until today I had no idea that 10 is the maximum number of charts in a discography table.

So here's my question: is it only allowed to add the certification to the table, if the country's chart is also mentioned? I would think that if almost every album by an artist was certified in a country, like Rihanna's albums were in Poland (including 3x Platinum for Loud), it is a reason to be proud [for the artist and her/his fans] ;)

Secondly, who choses those ten countries and on what grounds? For example, New Zealand's population is about 8-9 times smaller than Poland's, and the sales numbers for certifications are lower. Why is NZ in the table, and Poland is not?

And finally, what about the countries, for which there's no room in the discography table? Should I just add the certification and chart position on the album's wikipedia page?

I would be grateful for some clarification :) Best wishes, Mayast (talk) 14:39, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Hi Mayast and Welcome on Wikipedia! I am happy to answer things for you. As you learned only 10 charts are allowed in a discography of an artist. If the country is not in one of the charts its respective certifications are not included in the 'Certifications' field (the reason why I reverted you). There is no a policy for choosing the 10 charts, but most of the times, the charts/countries which were most successful for the artist are chosen and added there. And for the third question, yes, they can be included on the single or album article. Praise for Polish Rihanna fans what they did for Loud and all of her albums. Cheers! :) — Tomíca (T2ME) 14:49, 18 July 2013 (UTC)
