- Wow a lot of big words you used haha I knew what it was I was just having some fun. AJona1992 (talk) 20:11, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
- I ignored your tedious and irrelevant implication, and you would have been getting to a personal attack if you continued. Your sense of 'fun' is going to get you blocked at some point.--Jeffro77 (talk) 00:42, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
- Jona, I know you meant nothing by what you wrote, all possible implications aside... but you have to remember that others on Wikipedia don't know enough about you to know that, so just be careful that what you write cant be interpreted the wrong way.

"Re-wording" Hi AJona! -- I read your comments ...re: Rick DePiro article
editHi AJona! -- I read your suggestion for the rewording of the Rick DePiro article -- I really like how you've changed it! -- let's go with your suggestions -- the only thing I've added from the text you've changed is a very small change in the basic description -- and I've now saved the page with your changes !
Thank you for your input!
Have a great night!! --A&RBoss (talk) 04:47, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Would like to Move "Rick DePiro" article back to "Rick DePiro (Ricky Dee") because many fans, perspective clients and press agents know Mr DePiro as "Ricky Dee" and would never know to look under Rick DePiro in a search engine to look up his information. I hope you're ok with this. IF there's ANOTHER way to do this , please let me know, ok? THANK YOU for helping make this article better! You have ALREADY helped !! Hope you have a GREAT night!
--A&RBoss (talk) 05:12, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
- Hey, it's cool I don't know much about him to do major changes so I only suggest them to see if they appeal to you. Since people know him as "Ricky Dee" I have put it on the article as "he is known by his stage name Ricky Dee" if that's ok with you. AJona1992 (talk) 05:15, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
It's FINE with me! -- But, I was just changing the actual title of the article back to Rick DePiro (Ricky Dee) as I explained above -- is that ok with you?? THANK YOU again for your help!! --A&RBoss (talk) 05:19, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
- About moving it back, the article's name should be his full name or if he is known mononymously then the page should be named after his first name. People's "nicknames" aren't used as the articles names, as you can tell. But if you feel very strongly about it then you can always ask Wikipedia administrators they know more than me. AJona1992 (talk) 05:23, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Hey AJona! Thanks -- you're probably right -- let's just leave it where it is for now -- I will speak with Mr DePiro, his publicist , manager etc etc and take it from there -- It's probably just fine as you stated -- especially since other artists don't use their Stage names AND real names in the titles --Again, THANKS so much for all your help! --A&RBoss (talk) 05:50, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
- Your welcome and I have included this article as my "watch page" so I can help out with editing and improving the article so if you have any further concerns or questions you can always message me, if you feel like it, thanks. AJona1992 (talk) 05:53, 11 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi AJona! -- problem with categories - question for you!
editHi AJona! I have a question for you - This might be a bug or just someone inputting incorrectly -- but in the article you and I've been discussing, (Rick DePiro) there are several "category references-links" at the bottom -- in all cases that I can see thus far, the article and subject (Rick DePiro) are being incorrectly listed under Me. DePiro's FIRST name instead of his LAST, which is the opposite of EVERY other entry on these pages -- might you know why that would be? ... OR how I can fix it?
I'm concerned that this will confuse anyone trying to locate the article under ANY of these categories
ie http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Category:American_pianists&from=R http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Mensa http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Stadium_organists
Again , THANK YOU for taking the time to assist me -- it IS appreciated !!
all the best --A&RBoss (talk) 05:09, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
- So you do not want those categories associated with him? AJona1992 (talk) 20:32, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
- Hey you two. Some notes. (1) someone already removed him from the "R" section, and he's placed in the "D" section. (2) He was probably in the "R" section because of his "stage name" of "Ricky Dee" (since "Dee" is not his real last name). Also, you may wish to doublecheck what the naming conventions are on these sorts of things. Often, if the performer is (still currently) largely/entirely known by their "stage name" then that's what's used for the article name, with their real name set up as a redirect to the article, and the appropriate notations/wording in the article. In other cases the opposite is true - I'd probably have a redirect for Ricky Dee set up, if you havent already (havent checked). Best, Rob ROBERTMFROMLI TALK/CNTRB 23:22, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
Thanks AJona! for your recent advice and assistance with the Rick DePiro article!
editThat info really helps! -- its SO great that some nice folks with "REAL Wiki knowledge" are willing to help me with this -- Im learning EVERY day! TWO questions -- (IF ok!)
1 I tried to adjust one link thats now joined with another incorrectly in the Reference section BUT the section doesnt come up for me in the edit page -- it just shows the "categories" WHY?
2 If I want to separate the one ref from the other so they actually pertain to their appropriate references. how do I do that (ie: ref 10 - Freddie Ravel -- has another Ref within it's hyperlink that no longer works by itself)
THANKS Again!! --A&RBoss (talk) 05:18, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
- Your welcome when I started I wanted all the help lolz but hardly anyone came to me but I'm over it.
Ok well did you try changing the ref name? All the ref names (if its not coming from the same website) cannot be conjoined with each other. Can you explain the rest a little bit more to me? I'm having troubles of what you mean. Thanks. AJona1992 (talk) 17:26, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
- Hi AJona!
- When I tried to get to the Ref edit section, I only see the Categories in the list - The refs are missing to edit -- I see them on the article but they dont come up when I go to edit?? Is that normal?
- that said, Im FINE with you editing the link but I just need to know what Im seeing is "normal" and then if that's the case, I'll just cut and paste the link as is into this page for you and explain where it should be separated
- thanks again!!--A&RBoss (talk) 19:05, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Song lyrics
editHi, AJona1992. Another contributor pointed out to me that you had song lyrics on your user page. I'm afraid that song lyrics are copyrighted, and we can only display brief excerpts from them anywhere on Wikipedia, including on user pages. Our goal here is to remain well within the U.S. "fair use" allowances. How short the excerpt needs to be depends on how long the original material is. The U.S. courts consider the "amount and substantiality" of the content we use. Since songs generally aren't very long, you should use no more than a line or two. Sometimes in article space you can do a bit more, since your use there is "transformative" (another facet of U.S. copyright law). Critical analysis gives a little more latitude. ("Fair use" images can't be put in user space at all, but traditionally short quotations are allowed.) Since I don't have any idea which lines you would prefer, I have removed the lyrics to keep us compliant with WP:C. You're welcome to put back whichever lines most appeal to you, but please be sure to keep it brief. Thanks. --Moonriddengirl (talk) 13:06, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

Do you think it might be an idea to try to back off a little? I know you're a good contributor and I'd really hate to see being blocked for reasons that are not entirely under voluntary control).

- Well the only reason I attack back is if they attack me first. I doubt its because of my disorder. AJona1992 (talk) 19:03, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
- Nobody attacked you first, dude. You stormed in accusing WP:GOCE of being the "Worst ever Wiki project" and generally behaving rather confrontationally, and you really can't be surprised if the people there, who collectively make a massive contribution to Wikipedia, reacted defensively. Until *your* attack, nobody had said a word to you. Best regards -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 19:14, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
- Because it is, it shouldn't take over months just to freaking work on an article it shouldn't take weeks just know what's the status of one article, it shouldn't take weeks either to know that someone was working on it. The project is pathetic and I have every right to express myself about it. AJona1992 (talk) 19:17, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
- Well, we're clearly not going to come to any sort of agreement here, so I suggest the best thing to do is just walk away from this now and go spend our time doing something more constructive. Best regards -- Boing! said Zebedee (talk) 19:51, 18 October 2010 (UTC)
- Once again, it wasn't months, it was just 10-12 days, and if you had put a note in the talk page, someone would have helped you. If you think that's long, I've had a picture in WP:PPR for over 10 days and no comments. I'm not about to storm over there are scream my head off. Anyway, enough time wasted. Good luck with your future work. Cheers. - S Masters (talk) 09:01, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Bad Girls Club
editIs there any way we could make Season 5 of the Bad Girls Club a better article?
-Alexgx (talk) 16:21, 18 December 2010 (UTC)
- The Duration of Cast is mostly about the episodes of the show. The reunion is more like a special rather than a normal episode of the show; thirdly that's only my opinion, it's rather better if the duration of cast only have the episodes. You guys can ask an admin for their say on this before having more edit wars as I was trying to get Bad Girls Club 5 a good article, but it failed since the show was, at the time, airing. The most serious problems that are present is the duration of cast the color boxes, except the green one, shouldn't be exposed, rather it being a guideline. The notes section has to be brought back to tell other readers what they are seeing in the duration of cast. What makes the article a fan site is the reunion duration template. Since the reunion is not a episode, rather than a special, it takes up unnecessary space and it also creates a huge mess with all the other articles on the Bad Girls Club. Also when citing a reference, it's better to use Template:Cite episode or Template:Cite web, it makes the article look more professional than a crazy fan site that has own issues. Once this problem is fix the article can be re-nominated for a GA status. I will be working on expanding the sections pre-season, production, format and the house as soon as possible. Any more questions just ask thanks, AJona1992 (talk) 17:32, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Discography and Media apparences
editI added the Cleanup tags for these sections simply because the Discoraphy is disorangized. Most discographies used in Wikipedia are in list formats similar to other artists. The media appareneces are mostly in templates like Ja Rule#Filmography. By placing these standards the article can look more professional. AJona1992 (talk) 19:00, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi AJona! I would like to respectfully undo this edit until we are back in our offices AFTER Jan 22 2011 so we can edit this properly . Mr DePiro has some VERY influential people in his "circle" over the next 2 weeks INCLUDING the President of the United States and, several staff members will be looking at his Wikipedia page -- with the "rewrite " paragraph SO close to Christmas and New Years, it will look more obvious that changes are necessary instead of looking like a complete article as is has for many weeks now. Had you mentioned this even one week ago, we could have gotten to it and made it perfect -- PLEASE just wait until after January 22 2011 and we will GLADLY and willingly fix ALL of this. This is no time to call attention to any needed "fixes" for us -- btw, I understand completely why you added the suggestions and tags BUT the timing is REALLY bad for us at this moment with the ENTIRE office closed for the Holidays!
Thanks SO much for keeping an eye on the article and we will gladly keep working on it!! Have a GREAT Christmas and Holiday Season!! --A&RBoss (talk) 21:09, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
- The next time you send me a message please placed it down to the list. Wikipedia is a website that is editable to the public, just because someone of that importance will be viewing it, doesn't make the article any different from all the others. I'll help out with those sections so it can ease the train-wreck there. Also you might be interested in reading own issues, take care AJona1992 (talk) 05:03, 25 December 2010 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of File:Flopromotion.jpg
editA tag has been placed on File:Flopromotion.jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a non-free file with a clearly invalid licensing tag; or it otherwise fails some part of the non-free content criteria. If you can find a valid tag that expresses why the file can be used under the fair use guidelines, please replace the current tag with that tag. If no such tag exists, please add the {{non-free fair use in|article name that the file is used in}} tag, along with a brief explanation of why this constitutes fair use of the file. If the file has been deleted, you can re-upload it, but please ensure you place the correct tag on it.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

- On the The Bad Girls Club article I removed The Amber Show. It's not a real show or spin-off. I removed I Run L.A., even though Natalie has said it's coming (it's not here yet) we need to wait for a press release confirming it. I removed Go With the Flo and added the real show, titled Bad Girls Club: Flo Gets Married. Maybe Go With the Flo will air in the future, but we can't go by her website (she's not in control of production). I'm not sure if you added those spin-offs.. I probably should add this on the talk page. —Mike Allen 00:34, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

editI see that you added the compilaton album type back on Dreaming of You. Even though some of the songs are previously released Spanish songs, they were remixed for Dreaming of You so I think that the remix album type would be more a suitable album type. Chelo61 (talk) 05:20, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- Yes because we did not come up with a mutual agreement, therefore, the previous edit you had made shouldn't be accepted until we both come to a agreement. The album is a posthumous compilation album because the (1) album was released after her death, (2) the album was planned to be a crossover album, not a compilation album. A remix album does not contain unreleased songs, but previously released songs in a different version or beat. AJona1992 (talk) 16:45, 2 March 2011 (UTC)
- Dreaming of You is a studio album. It was never meant to be a compilation album. Just because an album is released after a singer's death does not make it a compilation album unless of course it's filled with previously released songs. While not all remix albums contain new songs some do such as Kumbia Kings' Los Remixes 2.0 and Michael Jackson's Blood on the Dance Floor: HIStory in the Mix. The previously released Spanish songs that were included in Dreaming of You were remixed which is why I propose a Studio album / Remix album type instead of Studio album / Compilation album.

- Note: Your statement about the compilation album isn't fulfilling: a compilation album is an album that contains previously released songs comprised in an album. If an album is released after a singer's death then the suitable "posthumous album" would be more suitable since it contains both new and old songs released in an album. Remix/Compilation album means the same thing; if we say "Remix/Posthumous" album then I would agree. However, there's no source that can back-up this claim of "remix album" for Dreaming of You since its classified as either a "studio album" or "studio and compilation album" by AOL.com, VH1Music, Billboard and AMG.com. No one classifies the album as a remix album, although some (Missing My Baby, Techno Cumbia, Como La Flor, and Bidi Bidi Bom Bom are the only remix songs on this album) and "Amor Prohibido" is not a remix song on this album. This album contains more unreleased songs then both previously released songs and remixes. So now the album would fall under "studio album", however, the album was released after Selena's death so it cannot be only classified as a studio album because a deceased singer can't release an album. If we can't come up with a mutual agreement let me know so I can ask administrators to view and discuss about this issue and decide for us. Take care, AJona1992 (talk) 01:19, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
- How about if we classify Dreaming of You as just a studio album. I know that Dreaming of You was released after Selena's death but just because an album is released after a singer's death does not make it a "compilation album". Take a look at Tupac's albums that were released after his death, some are studio albums while the others are compilation, greatest hits, remix, etc. Chelo61 (talk) 22:46, 3 March 2011 (UTC)
- We can't classify DOY to be a studio album. The article states :A studio album is an album made up of tracks recorded in the controlled environment of a recording studio, as opposed to a live recording made at a performance venue or a compilation or reissue album of previously recorded material. so I'm going to undo your edit, until this matter is resolved.

re: Uploading Music Files
editI just got home from work so give me about an hour to go through my watchlist then I will post a short "how-to" for creating and uploading music files. What operating system do you use (Mac / Windows / Linux)? Dawnseeker2000 01:14, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Thank you take your time :), I have a Windows. AJona1992 (talk) 01:20, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
OK, well I have done a lot of work with audio files. I got started by looking at WP:SAMPLE. I use two apps. One for manipulating the file and the other for converting to WAV format and back to Ogg. I use Nero Wave Editor for the actual manipulation and just use Audacity for converting and reducing. It's OK to just use Audacity, but it lacks the ability to manipulate the files on a very fine scale and that's why I use Nero.
The main things to know are the length of the sample that we can use: about 10% of total song length. Also, the resolution must be reduced. A standard audio CD will play at a resolution of 320Kbits per second. We need to reduce that to around 65Kbits per second. Audacity doesn't use a scale of actual bit rates that you can choose from. Instead, they use a scale (0 - 10). Wikipedia recommends a setting of 0 and that comes out to about 65Kbits per second. It's at Edit | Preferences then the File Formats tab.
So get yourself a copy of Audacity. The link for downloading it is in the article. Get it installed and from there you can use it to open a song (File | Open). From there it will display what the song sounds like visually. From there just select a section of the song that you want to use and copy it using Edit | Copy. Then open a new file with File | New and paste {Edit | paste) the section that you copied. From there you can trim it further or use the fade in and fade out features. Once you're done all that is left to do is select File | Export as Ogg Vorbis.
Now for the uploading part: Use the Wikipedia:Upload page and for song samples select "It is an audio sample of a song" and fill out the form with as much information as possible:
{{subst:MSI |song title = |song length = |reduced quality? = <!-- defaults to "yes" --> |album article title = |songwriter(s) = |performer(s) = |producer(s) = |copyright year = |record company = |article title = }}
For licensing just select "music sample" and the select the Ogg file that you created then hit upload file.
This is kind a broad overview. Obviously there's lots of little details that I've omitted, but give this a try and see what you can do. If you run into trouble or if you want some more ideas just give me a shout. Dawnseeker2000 03:04, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the steps, I'll be doing this shortly, if I have any questions I'll just ask them here, thanks! AJona1992 (talk) 20:34, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Audacity won't allow me to click "copy" let along covert to ogg format. What should I do next? AJona1992 (talk) 20:42, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

OK, lets start on the copying issue. Once a file is opened go ahead and select a portion of the song using the mouse. The cut, copy, and paste commands are "greyed out" and won't function without a selection being made. In other words, if you open the song and do nothing more, copying and pasting won't be an option. Now for converting to Ogg: As soon as a file is opened Audacity will be able to convert it. "Export to Ogg Vorbis" will be available under the file menu. Dawnseeker2000 21:12, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for helping me resolve that, OK its now saved on my computer. What's the next step? AJona1992 (talk) 21:28, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Does this mean that you've created an Ogg file? Dawnseeker2000 21:33, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Yes sir, however, how many seconds should the file contain? Also I only trimmed the section that I wanted then I saved it as ogg file. Was there something I needed to do? AJona1992 (talk) 21:40, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Does this mean that you've created an Ogg file? Dawnseeker2000 21:33, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
Alright, lets figure out how long it should be. What article is it for? Dawnseeker2000 21:44, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Selena's main article and Enamorada de Tí. AJona1992 (talk) 21:46, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- OK, I would shoot for right around 24 seconds. That's based on a song length of around four minutes. Dawnseeker2000 21:51, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Alright can you give me a run through on other song lengths like for 2,3,5+ minute songs? Ok so now all I have to do is upload it? AJona1992 (talk) 21:58, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- OK, I would shoot for right around 24 seconds. That's based on a song length of around four minutes. Dawnseeker2000 21:51, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
Well we can just use a formula of 1 second of sample length for each 10 seconds of song length. Or another way to look at it is 6 seconds per minute. For example, a one minute song would have a recommended length of 6 seconds. A two minute song would have a length of 12 seconds. Three minutes would be 18...and so on up to a maximum of 30 seconds. Also, can you give me the file size? It should be in Kilobytes (KB). Just right click on the file and select "properties" or look for the file in Windows Explorer. I just want to make sure it's the proper size before it's uploaded. That way we can avoid more work later. Dawnseeker2000 22:05, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks for the useful information. Its 465 KB (476,516 bytes). AJona1992 (talk) 22:07, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- OK, that is a big one. That means the resolution will be too high. I might have forgotten to mention to put the OGG quality at "0" in Audacity. That's located in Edit | Preferences and then the "File formats" tab. Just set the slider at 0. If we start with a 128Kbit song and make a sample out of it with this setting at 0 then our sample will be pretty much right on our target rate of 65Kbits per second. So it roughly halves it. So for your sample, if it's roughly 24 seconds with a file size of 465KB then the resolution can be found by taking 465,000 * 8 (8 bits to a byte) = 3,720,000 / 24 (seconds) = 155,000 or 155Kbits per second. That's about twice as high as it should be. Anyway, starting with a 128 Kbit / second file and using setting 0 will make this easier. Dawnseeker2000 22:20, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- I've reduced it to 159KB I tried doing what you said but I guess I need more help on this one, Math isn't one of my strengths unfortunately. AJona1992 (talk) 22:26, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Well how many Megabytes is the original song that you are sampling? I can email you. Email it back and I'll reduce it for you. That way we're starting at the right place and it will work out. This is an idea. Dawnseeker2000 22:30, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- The original song is 3.70 MB (3,881,641 bytes). However, what if in the future I wanted to upload more samples for Wikipedia? Even though your doing a huge favor for me, I would still like to know how to reduce it to Wikipedia standards, if you don't mind? But for now you can email me, or I email you (however you want that to happen) so I can get this song on Wikipedia. Thanks, AJona1992 (talk) 22:33, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- I sent an email. I want to send the MP3 encoder. You'll need that to get your music to 128Kbits per second. That's the starting place for making a sample. The file is a Dynamic Link Library and it needs to be set up for Audacity to use. Also, just to satisfy my own curiosity you can send the Selena tune. Dawnseeker2000 22:42, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

- I got it! AJona1992 (talk) 23:44, 5 March 2011 (UTC)
- I sent along the url to the lame MP3 encoder by email but I can post it here too.
- The file is there under "ZIP OPTION" and the file name is libmp3lame-win-3.98.2.zip
- The reason why you might want this is because you really want to start out with a song that's already at 128 Kbits per second. If it isn't you'll have difficulty getting the sample down to 65 Kbits per second. Regardless of whether you've got a WAV file or an MP3 file, with this encoder you will be able to reduce (create, or encode) a file from 160, 192, 224, 256, or 320 down to 128. That way when you create the Ogg file it will be very close to the target of 65. The settings for controlling the bit rate of the MP3 export function are right there on the File Formats tab in Audacity Preferences.
- Anyway, I hope this helps. Dawnseeker2000 01:53, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
- Alright thanks, I downloaded it, however I don't know how to mess with Zip files. How do I open this program so I can edit the ogg file? AJona1992 (talk) 14:10, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
- Anyway, I hope this helps. Dawnseeker2000 01:53, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
Well this dll is for creating MP3s. See, Audacity can't create MP3s without it. You will be able to play them, but can't reduce the resolution of track. If you've got a track that you want to use and its at 320Kbits per second it's necessary to drop that tune down to 128 before you make the sample. That way when you export it as an Ogg file you're right at 65.
Anyway, if you're using Windows XP you can just right-click the zip file. From there just select "extract all". When the extraction wizard appears just click next, next, and finish. Then you'll have the uncompressed folder. Open it up and you will see three files; two text files and the lame_enc.dll file
. Copy it and paste it in C:\Program Files\Audacity like we talked about before and then just go into Audacity and find that file using the "Find library" button under "MP3 Export Setup". Dawnseeker2000 16:07, 6 March 2011 (UTC)

State of Georgia Name Change
editOut of curiosity, how would I get a citation for the name change of the show? It used to be called The Great State of Georgia but now on the ABC Family websites and other media, it is called State of Georgia. --DisneyFriends (talk) 15:38, 17 April 2011 (UTC)
- If you can find a reliable source on those sites it would be best to use cite web. If your going to use a promotion as a source, it would have to be a reliable one I believe. For example, I used a promotional poster for Performances (Selena) to source that Disney Inc., are in production of an 8 episode series based on Selena's death. I just found out an IP deleted it, but an admin didn't see it as a problem. So, if you can find a promotional poster (in this case) then you can use it as a RS. However, I would double-check on that with on the RS talk page, just to be safe. Have a great day, AJona1992 (talk) 15:46, 17 April 2011 (UTC)

Dreaming of You
editHi -- I saw the notes on Dreaming of You and thought I'd add a comment here. I wish you good luck with getting the article to featured status, first of all. However, I wanted to let you know that the rule about not renominating in two weeks isn't Sandy's rule -- it's a rule that the community has agreed to. (I can explain the reason for the rule, if you care.) Sandy's just implementing what was agreed -- she's the delegate. Please don't take it personally; and, you know, two weeks really isn't very long. I think it would be best if you just withdrew the nomination and let the process take its course. The outcome everyone wants is the best articles; not necessarily the best articles as quickly as possible. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 00:02, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
- However, if you had read the second discussion, I was dealing with the last suggestion, hours before Sandy decided to close it. That's unfair to just let a nomination be closed after four days! I have seen nominations go longer then two weeks. I'm not taking it personal, but she made that judgement solely on her, not by the rules. AJona1992 (talk) 00:09, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
- I can't speak for Sandy, but two strong oppose comments are likely to cause a quick end to any nomination. The idea at FAC is to come to a decision -- it's not supposed to be a place where comments are acted on to improve the article, but a place where the article is judged to be ready or not. Of course, in practice a lot of comments do get made and acted on and the article is improved to the point where people can support promotion, but in those cases it's rare that there are strong opposes and no supports right at the start.
- I haven't looked at the article at all, but I do have some background at FAC -- if you like I'll take a look and tell you what I think you might do to improve the article to FAC level. GAN is usually a good idea if you haven't done that yet, by the way -- it's a good way to find and fix problems. Mike Christie (talk - contribs - library) 00:26, 6 May 2011 (UTC)
There are numerous comments at the FLC. Please indicate that you'll be addressing them or withdraw the nomination. Thanks. The Rambling Man (talk) 15:36, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Dreaming of You 2
editAnyway I can help out? Magiciandude (talk) 02:03, 16 May 2011 (UTC)
- Hey buddy :) I've seen you did some awesome searching for the "reception" section. I don't know if the article still needs "work".? The only issues that hinder the article from being a FA and GA was prose, grammar, and language and somewhat structure. But since I lack in prose, I don't know if there are any, since two other users took care of that. If you can spot anything that will hurt the article being a FA.? It'll be very appreciated, thanks!

DYK note
editHello! Your submission of Barrio Boyzz at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and there still are some issues that may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know! Khazar (talk) 04:25, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
- Also at Barrio Boyzz, I trimmed down the number of links for readability. First I got rid of any lowvalue links like "CEO" or "benefit concert" that somebody was unlikely to need to read an article on while reading this. Then I created redirects for the names of band members, etc., to avoid the effect of that sea of red. You can still fill in these articles later just by writing over those pages. Anyway, it's good to go. Cheers, Khazar (talk) 14:20, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

AWB
editHi AJona, I ran Death of Selena and let AWB condense the refs a bit. If you're interested, it looks like you do qualify to download the software if you want. (It takes 500 article space edits, but you're way over that). You can do that here: Wikipedia_talk:AutoWikiBrowser/CheckPage. But feel free to flag me down to run anything you like in the meantime. And keep up the good editing! It's a pleasure reading your additions. Cheers Khazar (talk) 04:13, 4 June 2011 (UTC)
- Thanks again! I have added myself on the list. Take care, AJona1992 (talk) 04:27, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

Peer Review limits
editHi AjonA1992, I wanted to let you know that there are limits on the number of open peer reviews any one editor can have at a single time. According to the peer review page Nominations are limited to one per editor per day and four total open requests per editor. By my count, you currently have six peer reviews open (two over the limit). If you would like I can archive the two oldest, but please do not open any more peer reviews until there is room to do so. Thanks, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 19:32, 9 June 2011 (UTC)
