Your Beyoncé edits

edit

It would be great if you read the sources I put up a bit more carefully. The Center for Science in the Public Interest launched a campaign a month prior to the inauguration to try to get Beyoncé to change her mind. Laurie David started the petition on We the People and remained equally condemnatory after the petition was taken down by the White. These, I believe, constitute heavy, involved criticism. Also, grammar-wise, "the" capitalized, never belongs in the middle of a sentence. --Aichik (talk) 21:11, 22 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Response to your comments. Titles of a book, a play, works of art, not the titles in other sense. Look again. And explain what you mean by heavy being loaded before just taking it off. To get a more positive response from someone who doesn't see it your way, suggest a replacement, don't just censor.--Aichik (talk) 17:09, 23 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Response to response: "its the claim that the parties or wider media did so 'heavily' that is unfounded." Nowhere do I say claim that it was the wider media that heavily criticized her: Get to the rest of the sentence. "She has been criticized for this endorsement by the Center for Science in the Public Interest[295], New York Times's food writer Mark Bittmann[294] and environmentalist Laurie David." That bit about the Caesarian or not: Whatever your intentions, the word naturally closes down any speculation about her having used a surrogate, so its weasely. I'm tempted to tweak the mention of her "proving" her "natural" pregnancy in her HBO doc too because the shots of her pregnant were always partial (no continuous shot of those closeups of the bump to her face), and the sonogram shots are individual videos on their own. It shouldn't even be in there unless you say "She attempted to show."--Aichik (talk) 18:01, 23 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Response: That can be used to take out most of Wikipedia's content, darling. Don't use it as a hammer to drive your own preferences.--Aichik (talk) 18:31, 23 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Response: Where do you get this: "a lot of the media at the time reported it purely because it was controversial, many admitting that it was false." If you want to assert this in the article you'll have to have good backup and "It doesn't deserve much ground seeing the only evidence rests on a dress folding", well if you're an irrational Beyoncé fan who doesn't like to count back months and see how active she was during parts of her pregnancy yes. You can think what you want it's a free world. But I will fight you if you try to close the discussion of this in the article. It was easy enough for the star to show the world if this were true in her doc but she didn't. It's weird, because there's nothing wrong with a surrogate pregnancy. Oh well. --Aichik (talk) 18:39, 25 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Please comment on Talk:Ugg boots trademark disputes

edit

Per the WP:RFC and WP:FRS guidelines, I respectfully request your feedback regarding a question of law.

Should the Ugg boots trademark disputes article include example cases of counterfeit consumer goods? Is the counterfeiting of brand name goods a "trademark dispute" when the counterfeiters are taken to court? Also, an editor has claimed that the introduction of example cases of counterfeiting "dilute" the discussion about whether the word "UGG" is a generic term, and therefore ineligible for trademark protection.

Please respond to the survey here with "Support" if you believe counterfeiting is a trademark dispute when taken to court, or "Oppose" if you believe the reverse is true. Thank you. Phoenix and Winslow (talk) 12:40, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Reply

Beyoncé

edit

Could you explain the logic of Beyoncé announcement of her pregnancy helping the 2011's MTV Video Music Awards becoming one of their most watched? 1) People tuned in not knowing what was going to happen 2) the source for this is MTV itself so definitely some self-advertising nonsensical language in there. This is in the section in the timeline under 2011. thanks--Aichik (talk) 17:13, 8 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Also, could you give me examples of other controversial places the couple has traveled to in the past. thanks--Aichik (talk) 21:55, 8 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Beyonce and Jay-Z in Cuba

edit

No, it's a big deal already. Cuba is a HUGE deal in the US. (You're in the UK, right?) Europeans have been making trips to Cuba through other countries for years and so have some lefty Americans and Cuban Americans but for a huge American celebrity couple to do it, it's really different. Here's a Washington Post headline: "Beyoncé and Jay-Z in Cuba more controversial than past star visits"Here's a Yahoo article here. And The Guardian, a British source. Lots of left symbolism here for folks that have been criticized as apolitical (Jay-Z and Beyoncé) by left African Americans, like Harry Belafonte. Alot of the above articles also show that Obama is seeking to loosen the embargo. Mario Rubio, rising star on the American political right, and Florida senator has been pretty vocally against the trip. Here he is again. --Aichik (talk) 17:08, 11 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Also, Jay-Z most recent song, cites it, the same source calling the trip "somewhat illegal". Are you afraid, like Jivesh, that it makes them look bad? It doesn't. It shows that they're trying to make a difference.--Aichik (talk) 20:43, 11 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

How did you come to the conclusion that I would be afraid? Are you feeling well? Jivesh1205 (Talk) 04:12, 12 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
I've added the Cuba details in because of the amount of coverage it seems to be getting internationally. —Jennie | 15:08, 12 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Dear Jennie--x, I'm sorry! I'm not intentionally trying to revert your edits but the sources dont match up and they were all different. I would be better to have just one source.

  The Beyoncé Knowles Award
For your dedication to Beyoncé Knowles' bio page! You have set a wonderful example for everyone else to follow. I present you with this award mainly to let you know that whatever you do for the project does not goes by unappreciated. Keep on the good work Jennie.You are one of the few editors who really work according to the criteria for a GA and not only for the sake of having a GA icon on an article for embellishment.

Beyoncé's Billboard Millenium Award

edit

Thanks for your prompt edits on her intro. I noticed that you put the Billboard Millenium Award back in again without adding anything to [the debate], in effect overriding it. Please don't do this again. If you want it kept in, cite where you saw that she said it was among one of her most important awards. Finding that she said it was more important than the Soul Train Awards (which we have left out on all of her solo stuff) or the MTV Video Music Awards will keep it in there indefinitely.

Fashion section

I think it needs to be called "Fashion lines" or we'll have to describe Beyoncé's fashion styles over the years in here as well.--Aichik (talk) 15:24, 7 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Hi Jennie. I hope you are enjoying good health. What do you think of this? I guess it does have its place in the bio page, right? Jivesh1205 (Talk) 18:02, 4 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Frankly telling you Jennie, I don't know to which section this will fit. Personal life or the Awards. I will be happy if you do it. I have much overtime to do at work this weekend. And I am so excited for "Grown Woman" even though I would have preferred "Standing on the Sun". At this point, anything from Beyonce will do my day. :P Jivesh1205 (Talk) 03:14, 5 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Other recent Beyoncé edits

edit

Could you be more careful with these? I put in Columbia after the songwriting contract bit because it was nowhere in the article. It was only mentioned in connection to Destiny's Child it seems like it was forgotten.

"the fact that an artist releases under a certain label hardly needs to be repeated throughout an article" This is a bit of an exaggeration, since it wasn't mentioned in the body of the article. We mention every song that hit the top 100 but not the music label under which they were produced? Then all of a sudden her worldwise publishing agreement? This isn't good writing.--Aichik (talk) 19:48, 7 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

2) See this, second to last discussion, about naming them the billion dollar couple.

3) Lastly, yes there is backup for this here. It's not the style of the intro to have references if it's a well-established article.

Please have the courtesy to discuss questions on the Talk page before editing out otherwise I'll have to give you a warning like everyone else. (These are alot!) thanks--Aichik (talk) 19:02, 7 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

I'm not taking it personally, but collectively, these three add up. Of course none on their own would merit a warning. I'm just surprised: I feel like I've been really careful about my changes.--Aichik (talk) 19:48, 7 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Beyonce as GAR

edit

Yeah whatever, Jennie, that's your totally biased opinion. Your interest in keeping it a Good Article status *always* outweighed any interest you had in a thorough copyedit. You know that with what I put into was ALOT of copyediting, and there are some still. Your memory is *so* selective.

You have been blocked temporarily from editing for edit warring, as you did at Beyoncé Knowles. Once the block has expired, you are welcome to make useful contributions. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by adding below this notice the text {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}, but you should read the guide to appealing blocks first.

During a dispute, you should first try to discuss controversial changes and seek consensus. If that proves unsuccessful, you are encouraged to seek dispute resolution, and in some cases it may be appropriate to request page protection.  Toddst1 (talk) 21:58, 23 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Sorry. I assumed that you were allowed to remove inappropriately sourced material without breaking WP:3RR. I've looked over the guidelines again. —Jennie | 22:08, 23 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
The exceptions are for BLP violations or obvious vandalism. His edits clearly weren't vandalism, I'm not sure about BLP but guessing not. For what it is worth, I think your violation was much less than the other gents, particularly considering his demeaning and aggressive tone he took.

  Please do not assume ownership of articles such as Beyoncé Knowles. If you aren't willing to allow your contributions to be edited extensively or be redistributed by others, please do not submit them. Thank you. You already got blocked for edit-warring once, both of you need to calm down. Maybe take a break from this article? It will cope fine without you for a few days, don't worry. Little Professor (talk) 12:14, 24 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

I appreciate your advice, but after reading your comment to Aichik, it seems as if your placing the blame onto me in a content dispute that has gone undiscussed (which is ultimately unhelpful). I reverted controversial statements to a section where it was not relevant, undue and with unreliable sources; this has nothing to do with "ownership" or being selective of what material goes in or even discouraging other editors from editing. Thanks. —Jennie | 15:53, 24 May 2013 (UTC)Reply

Rotten Tomatoes

edit

Please read WP:RTMC, it is a guideline not a rule but it is a very well thought out and helpful guideline. When referencing it is often useful to give the date to be specific and provide proper context but with scores from sites like Rotten Tomatoes the number of reviews used to generate the score provides all the necessary context, much better context than a date. A film that gets 83% from 100 reviews is more significant than a film that gets 100% from 10 reviews. This comment is in reference to your edits on Behind the Candelabra. -- 109.77.106.179 (talk) 01:21, 25 May 2013 (UTC)Reply
