Talk:When I Grow Up (The Pussycat Dolls song)

Radio edit or Album version

What is with the track listing. I don't get it. It says Radio edit runs for 4:00 and the Album version runs for the same time. Is the radio edit the album version or is the album version longer :S --BatterWow (talk) 09:14, 20 June 2008 (UTC)

Also some idiot keeps deleting a bunch of the charts and I keep re-adding them because they are significant charts and its so freakin annoying. whoever you are STOP! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Yeahboyyy (talk • contribs) 20:25, 16 September 2008 (UTC)

For months, the pussycat dolls song pages and their discography has been the same. The charts on the pages were all accurate and there were lots of them. The discography page had more countries listed. Now all these new members make it their business to march in and cite every source so now theres a citation next to every single chart position and its ridiculous! it looks like crap! things were fine before and i dont know who suddenly made you in charge and you just march in and start deleting all these charts because you feel that they are redundant or insignifant. some of your points are definitely valid but whats up with you ordering other members around and telling them what's right and whats wrong? its not cool, it shouldnt be just the way you think it should be!

and why are you deleting the united world chart and the europe chart? These are two of the biggest charts!

I thought Ericorbit's vandalism warning was a hair over the edge, but only a hair. You have been persistently reverting changes to the article when those changes were intended to bring the article up to the standards mandated in WP:V. Neither Ericorbit nor I is what you could reasonably call a "new member". He's an admin, and I have over 10,000 edits under my belt. People just recently noticed how bad the PCD articles had become, and decided it was time to bring them up to standard. Feel free to help.

I didn't delete a Europe chart. The Bulgarian chart and the UWC chart had to go. If you would read the edit summaries of the edits you keep reverting, you would see Ericorbit's reasoning. It's right here that he gives links to the previous discussions that decided that those charts were bad.Kww (talk) 19:51, 19 September 2008 (UTC)

Meant to be on Nicole's debut album.

'When I Grow Up' was actually meant to be on Nicole Scherzinger's debut album, Her Name Is Nicole, but it was rejected. The album version of it was the actual recording of it, but the rest of the Dolls recorded their voices for the radio edit and video edit. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jraz1206ablao (talk • contribs) 23:50, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

KCA

Charts

Someone has been messing with the peak positions again! I'm having a hard time figure out what to undo, if someone would like to help me out. Yeahboyyy (talk) 18:14, 4 October 2009 (UTC)

Reality series

• "the goal of the show was add a seventh member to the group." missing a word

•  Done Statυs (talk) 03:07, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

• Also this section has nothing to do with the song in any part, so its best to move it to the main page and remove it here.

• It's in the background section for a reason. This all happened before they began recording their second album. Statυs (talk) 03:07, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

  • I still see no reason to keep it here, it talks about the show not the song. Best, Jonayo! ^{Selena 4 ever} 23:07, 4 July 2012 (UTC)

    •  Not done Jonayo! ^{Selena 4 ever} 14:55, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

• Background information is to what put happened before the song's creation into context. Adding a new member, and then them leaving is directly relevant to one of the reasons they took so long to release a new album. Statυs (talk) 22:44, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

  • The section seems more suitable for the album, not the song. Best, Jonayo! ^{Selena 4 ever} 15:49, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

    • Can you remove this section to the main article so I can pass it? Best, Jona^{talk to me} 15:51, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

• I removed it 15 days ago... Statυs (talk) 02:27, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Music and lyrics

• "Lead vocalist Nicole Scherzinger was cited as adopting" we already know she is the lead vocalist, so her last name is only needed here.
• Delink The Yardbirds

•  Done both Statυs (talk) 03:07, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

Remixes

• For unknown reasons, the remix was never released. source?

• Why exactly does this need a source? The remix just wasn't released. Nothing was said about it since. Statυs (talk) 03:07, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

• Please fix the {{cn}} tags in this section

• How would you suggest I source that statement? Could I just source the CD single/Digital releases that are present later in the article? Statυs (talk) 03:07, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

  • Yes, Jonayo! ^{Selena 4 ever} 14:55, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

•  Done Statυs (talk) 22:44, 10 July 2012 (UTC)

Commercial performance

• at number seventy-six on the issue dated June 14, 2008 per WP:ORDINAL it would be 76, please apply elsewhere in this section.

•  Done what I could see. Statυs (talk) 03:10, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

Please fix these before I go further. BTW sorry for the long wait. Best, Jonayo! ^{Selena 4 ever} 02:54, 28 June 2012 (UTC)

I don't see what is making it do that. Statυs (talk) 00:05, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

• FN#8 publisherid?

The publisher ID is different on different versions of the album. By that I mean, it won't be the same on the US version as it would be on the European version. It's best to leave it out. Statυs (talk) 00:18, 5 July 2012 (UTC)
