Why is my edit a vandalism? In my opinion the new videography looks way better than the old one (that's active now), the video description on the main page doesn't make sense, since there are descriptions on the singles pages... Cheszy 12 January 2012 (UTC)

Can you see/tell what is still needed in Only Happy When It Rains for it to pass? (and thanks for the review; because of it, I might fix the two previous Garbage songs that were killed in action - or even considering adding one more GA here!) igordebraga ≠ 02:18, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Checking. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 04:28, 24 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Still waiting. igordebraga ≠ 03:33, 26 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have cleaned up one of the drive-by shootings noms that preceded the article you reviewed: Vow (song). Can you take a look and tell me if it's ready for another GA nom? Thanks. igordebraga ≠ 04:20, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

She's coming... — Status {^talk_contribs 19:38, 29 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That cover, that middle finger, that smile! *Gasping for air* — Legolas ^(talk2me) 04:54, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

THE VIDEO PREVIEW!!!!!!! She looks so young and hot! Getting "Hung Up" / "Sorry" from this. :D — Status {^talk_contribs 15:15, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

She looks really hot, unlike the "4 Minutes" video where she was just plain scary. Her look reminds me that of her appearance on the 2009 VMAs, paying tribute to MJ. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 16:07, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

She does! Who says you can't look good at 50+? Also, it does look almost the same as Hung Up! :O — Status {^talk_contribs 00:40, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OMG AND NO THE ALBUM COVER. Too much at once Madge, too much. I am slayed. I still hate the fuck outta that font though. — Status {^talk_contribs 14:50, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I totally love the cover. It looks wonderful. Damn Madonna, she is crazy ! :) — Tomica (talk) 15:03, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I love both. I have never been excited for a Magde album until this one. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 15:07, 31 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Jivesh, wtf is a "Magde"? OMG at the album cover, the name MDNA as well as the cover harkens back so much to her first release. Its as if a new life is breathing in her discography. Are ya'll excited for SB tomorrow? Have ya'll seen the "super gay coma inducing" stage? — Legolas ^(talk2me) 06:44, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oops. Madge. :P I hope Madge becomes the first artist to hit number one in four decades. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 06:49, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

She's coming back to show everyone how its done. I'm on a temporary braething nozzle nowadays cause I can't breathe. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 06:59, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Trust me, I can understand how you are feeling. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 07:37, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"fist artist", "Magde"... oh dear. People's hands are shaking too much in excitement for typing properly xD. —WP:PENGUIN · ^{[ TALK ]} 10:48, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

No, my keyboard is epic. It is unique. :P Jivesh1205 (Talk) 10:53, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Your keyboard snatching dem wigs like yo FAs. Such a legend. Jiveshus godhungend! — Legolas ^(talk2me) 10:57, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"I'm on a temporary braething nozzle nowadays" - we have an epidemic here! —WP:PENGUIN · ^{[ TALK ]} 10:59, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Damn I was stoned by the Penguin. Legolosss is sad! :( — Legolas ^(talk2me) 11:06, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lol, my FAs are snatching wigs? :P You made me remember something I saw on ATRL. A Britney Spears fan was asking why there will not be a Glastonbury 2012 (The festival will actually be back in 2013). A Beyonce fan replied: "Don't you know Beyonce performed in 2011? So many wigs have been snatched. They have to pick up each wig from the location and there are so many that it might take two years". Lol, that was really funny. LMAO I love the Beyhive of ATRL. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 11:07, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It's OK: "epidemuic" was my edit summary... oh the irony. Lol at Jiv. —WP:PENGUIN · ^{[ TALK ]} 11:08, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hey guys, "Stupid Hoe" has grown on me. Go back to you habitat. :P Jivesh1205 (Talk) 11:10, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I just can't at the video. Still. Oh and Jivesh that "Countdown" parody was too much. I have shown it to everyone, from my wife, friends, brother, manager.. everybody. Its lije the most commented post and shared video from my FB account. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 11:12, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Really? That makes me so happy. Have you listened to "Birthday Cake" by Rihanna? I love it. He wanna lick the icing off. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 11:17, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

(→) I used to like it, but alas, Talk That Talk hasn't aged well at all with me. I prefer listening to Loud than this. Every song except "We Found Love" sounds dated to me. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 11:25, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Do you want to get slayed? Jivesh1205 (Talk) 11:30, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

See. Jivesh1205 (Talk) 11:31, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Another fan of Rihanna's "S&M". :P Jivesh1205 (Talk) 11:45, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

And here it is. The first top comment. Hah :) ! — Tomica (talk) 14:35, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi there. I was wondering if you weren't too busy if you could take a look at 21's peer review. Any suggestions, big or small, would be greatly appreciated. No rush if you can't get to it right now. Hoping to take it to FAC in about a week. Thanks again. My main issue at the moment is prose and citation consistency. Orane (talk) 23:24, 30 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

WikiCup 2012 is off to a flying start. At the time of writing, we have 112 contestants; comparable to last year, but slightly fewer than 2010. Signups will remain open for another week, after which time they will be closed for this year. Our currrent far-away leader is Grapple X (submissions), due mostly to his work on a slew of good articles about The X-Files; there remain many such articles waiting to be reviewed at good article candidates. Second place is currently held by Ruby2010 (submissions), whose points come mostly from good articles about television episodes, although good article reviews, did you knows and an article about a baroness round out the score. In third place is Jivesh boodhun (submissions), who has scored 200 points for his work on a single featured article, as well as points for work on others, mostly in the area of pop music. In all, nine users have 100 or more points. However, at the other end of the scale, there are still dozens of participants who are yet to score. Please remember to update your submission pages promptly!

The 64 highest scoring participants will advance to round 2 in a month's time. There, they will be split into eight random groups of eight. The score needed to reach the next round is not at all clear; last year, 8 points guaranteed a place. The year before, 20.

A few participants and their work warrant a mention for achieving "firsts" in this competition.

• 12george1 (submissions) was the first to score, with his good article review of Illinois v. McArthur.
• 12george1 (submissions) was also the first to score points for an article, thanks to his work on Hurricane Debby (1982)- now a good article. Tropical storms have featured heavily in the Cup, and good articles currently have a relatively fast turnaround time for reviews.
• Sp33dyphil (submissions) was the first to score points for a did you know, with Russian submarine K-114 Tula. Military history is another subject which has seen a lot of Cup activity.
• Sp33dyphil (submissions) is also the first person to successfully claim bonus points. Terminator 2: Judgment Day is now a good article, and was eligible for bonus points because the subject was covered on more than 20 other Wikipedias at the start of the competition. It is fantastic to see bonus points being claimed so early!
• Speciate (submissions) was the first to score points for an In the News entry, with Paedophryne amauensis. The lead image from the article was also used on the main page for a time, and it's certainly eye-catching!
• Jivesh boodhun (submissions) was the first to score points for a featured article, and is, at the moment, the only competitor to claim for one. The article, "Halo" (Beyoncé Knowles song), was also worth double points because of its wide coverage. While this is an article that Jivesh and others have worked on for some time, it is undeniable that he has put considerable work into it this year, pushing it over the edge.

We are yet to see any featured lists, featured topics or good topics, but this is unsurprising; firstly, the nomination processes with each of these can take some time, and, secondly, it can take a considerable amount of time to work content to this level. In a similar vein, we have seen only one featured article. The requirement that content must have been worked on this year to be eligible means that we did not expect to see these at the start of the competition. No points have been claimed for featured portals or pictures, but these are not content types which are often claimed; the former has never made a big impact on the WikiCup, while the latter has not done so since 2009's competition.

A quick rules clarification before the regular notices: If you are concerned that another user is claiming points inappropriately, please contact a judge to take a look at the article. Competitors policing one another can create a bad atmosphere, and may lead to inconsistencies and mistakes. Rest assured that we, the judges, are making an effort to check submissions, but it is possible that we will miss something. On a loosely related note: If you are concerned that your nomination, be it at good article candidates, a featured process or anywhere else, will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAC, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup. As ever, questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup and the judges are reachable on their talk pages, or by email. Good luck!

Hi, I want to let you know that the source http://proxy.siteo.com.s3.amazonaws.com/disqueenfrance.siteo.com/file/dossierdepressesnep-midem2012.pdf is taken form the SNEP site http://www.disqueenfrance.com/fr/catalogpage.xml?id=430982&pg=1&cat=251362 (the last link). Anyway, I have added again France with this source http://www.disqueenfrance.com/fr/pag-259376-Classements-Annuels.html.

Now I have a problem because here http://www.disqueenfrance.com/fr/pag-259376-Classements-Annuels.html we have the singles year-end chart (physical singles) and Born This Way is #31. On the digital singles year-end chart it is #22 (http://www.disqueenfrance.com/fr/pag-259376-Classements-Annuels.html?year=&type=8 ), and it's #22 on the combined chart (http://proxy.siteo.com.s3.amazonaws.com/disqueenfrance.siteo.com/file/dossierdepressesnep-midem2012.pdf ). Which chart should I use? And Judas - did not chart on the singles (physical singles) chart but it is #41 on the digital chart and #48 on the combined chart. The Edge of Glory charted only on the combined chart (#87). Which charts should I use? Album charted at #18 on the albums chart and combined chart, and #14 on the digital chart. The same here... Max24 (talk) 11:16, 01 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oh is it? We generally take only the combined chart so you can add that only, the proxy.siteo site. I wasn't aware that the link comes from disque en france itself. Sorry for reverting your edits then. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 12:09, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I reverted this edit merely because it is going into too much detail without sources. The editor spoke to me about the cultural significance of Beethoven and I told him that specific details like this regardlessly need sources per WP:PLOTSUM. (S)he dismissively expressed WP:IDHT. Please see the discussion. And this. I have no problem with its inclusion if it can be sourced, but right now it's simply bloated. Could you give some input. It'd be greatly appreciated. Regards, —WP:PENGUIN · ^{[ TALK ]} 18:32, 1 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This should do it, is the editor high or something? And what cultural movement with a damn Beethoven sonata being included? Its like the same BS Gaga's been spreading. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 03:09, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. Getting a bit tired with all the trivia additions lately. Can't wait for the music video premiere tho! Eek. —WP:PENGUIN · ^{[ TALK ]} 09:52, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

On 2 February 2012, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Madonna: Like an Icon, which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that author Lucy O'Brien was criticized for giving too much emphasis to singer Madonna's discography in the biography Madonna: Like an Icon? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Madonna: Like an Icon.You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and add it to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Do you like her? I am smitten. :P Jivesh1205 (Talk) 10:04, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Miss Del "Slay" has slayed me like a stupid hoe. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 10:14, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

My only problem with her is that she needs to be more expressive and mobile in her videos. Is she true she has had plastic surgery many times? Jivesh1205 (Talk) 10:21, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

P>S Did you watch the video I posted yesterday? Jivesh1205 (Talk) 10:22, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, she kinda looks like a scarecrow doll in her videos. No Jivesh, I could not see the video yesterday as I can't see them from office and I did not login from home. I will see it today for sure. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 10:27, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Order for a pacemaker before watching it. Avi, I am obsessed with "Born To Die". She sounds like the American Adele to me. :) Jivesh1205 (Talk) 10:29, 2 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Queen Lana did no such thing. :O — Status {^talk_contribs 11:47, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

She is amazing. I think her songs are the only ones I have loved after those on 4. I also like "Stupid Hoe" :P Jivesh1205 (Talk) 11:51, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Stupid Hoe" is utterly abyssmal and gutter-hole, compared to Minaj's glorious endeavors like "Super Bass" and "Your Love". — Legolas ^(talk2me) 14:03, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"Your Love"? #DEAD# Jivesh1205 (Talk) 06:10, 5 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Doesn't matter. I fixed it. Aaron • ^{You Da One} 13:48, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Not a big deal Aaron, I also messed it up big time in my first FTC nomination. I corrected it. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 13:49, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There were red links everywhere! Lol. Aaron • ^{You Da One} 13:51, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Haha, when I nominated the True Blue GT, I did not even list it in the main GTC page, and it remained stationary like that for a total of three weeks until a delegate found out. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 13:54, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Haha. Have I dont the right thing why listing the two that were peer reviewed? Aaron • ^{You Da One} 13:58, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but do continue developing them all you can so that the reviewers who comment see that content is being written into those two, and they have a chance at being a future GA. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 14:00, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

There is literally nothing for Rihanna's Secret Body Spray Tour. To be honest, it has no sources and there is nothing to expand it with, it should be deleted. Aaron • ^{You Da One} 14:11, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. Redirect it better. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 14:24, 3 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Legolas, I have just read that Lady Gaga's new single is McQueen coming out soon.

Okay thanks. 17:06, 9 February 2012 (UTC)

I reverted an edit by an IP address as I questioned the sources and they reverted me as a vandlist so I reverted theirs as vandalism and left them a warning on their talk page. I'm signing off for the day and wondered if you can keep an eye on the page if they do it again and possibly warn them again and if they persist on it well you know what usually happens then. lol!

Hi Avi. Do you think I can use this? As you know, reviews for BHG have been quite limited and I finally found this one; it says stripped down, back to basics music vid, reminiscent of Madonna's Cherish. So what do you think? Jivesh1205 (Talk) 08:18, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Is that website reliable? Jivoo, it would be better if you direct your queries to my FB. I'm active there more than here. — Legolas ^(talk2me) 12:41, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, it must be an awesome moment, I just saw her on YouTube *poor me* MDNA covers are amazing, though I prefer the deluxe edition.

No way did you go to the Super Bowl. I have never been so jealous of anyone in my life. I'm glad you liked LAP, have to say that was the most incredible moment! I stayed up until 1am in the UK to watch it! Did you get any good pictures? -FeuDeJoie (talk) 21:45, 9 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
