Grammy Award for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration

FL! Congrats! I went ahead and added a star along with your name here. --Another Believer _(Talk) 14:38, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Butterfly

I was stalking around, and saw that you made a book for Butterfly. Is this image suitable? Novice7 (talk) 08:32, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

That's one of the few images dating back to 1998. Then there's the "I Still Believe" photos. Maybe, one of them? Yeah, they're poor quality. If possible, can you leave comments on "Irresistible" PR, and how's "Exhale"? Lol, I'm scared :| Novice7 (talk) 08:42, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

It's okay then. Good night (that is, if you're going to sleep :P) Novice7 (talk) 08:52, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

See ya later then. I'm going to eat now.. Too hungry.. Bye! Novice7 (talk) 08:57, 14 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi! If you're free, can you add an Alt for "Shoop Shoop"? Novice7 (talk) 07:27, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

It's okay :) Novice7 (talk) 09:28, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

Okay, so I added alt (which is of course stupid :D) Can you check it out? Novice7 (talk) 06:40, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! Audio sample? Can you tell me how to do it for sample? And, regarding the other two images, I'll try. Also, I worked hard on the Music video section so that the image passes NFCC (though I didn't upload the screenshot). Novice7 (talk) 06:46, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Lol, I was about to add alt to the sample :D Okay, so I added something in to the composition section. "Houston's vocals span an octave plus the perfect fifth, from the low note of G3 to the high note of D5". Is it correct? Novice7 (talk) 06:57, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Thank you soooo much!! So, how much octaves does it cover? Novice7 (talk) 07:04, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks again! So, I sound obsessed with Whitney to you? :P Novice7 (talk) 07:17, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Yes of course, I think celebrity obsession is perfectly normal. But too much... If I should be frank, I think I'm kinda drifting away from Bey.. I loved her so much before, but now... :D I'm obsessed with Whitney and Mariah. Whenever I see they live, I kinda faint due to excitement *embarrassed* Novice7 (talk) 07:26, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

I haven't got my hands on Bey DVDs (just the CDs). Hmmm.. since you're more into R&B, why not try Heartbreak Hotel and It's Not Right but It's Okay? If you don't like these, I'll suggest some other songs. Trust me, it takes time to live the "divas" (MC, Whit, Celine, Barbra, Bey, even Anita Baker). If you like New jack swing from 80's and 90's, you can listen to I'm Your Baby Tonight and My Name is not Susan :) Novice7 (talk) 07:35, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi! It's been eight days, and nobody has reviewed "Irresistible" yet. Can you add a few comments (mostly from Composition, Critical sections??). Please 8( 8( 8( Also, did you hear the songs? I'm pretty sure you might have fallen asleep after hearing them. So boring, aren't they? Please don't forget the PR. I'm mostly doubtful about the composition and critical sections. They seem messy to me. Thanks! Novice7 (talk) 07:53, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Sorry, I had to correct my message :D Novice7 (talk) 04:20, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Talk:Above and Beyoncé – Video Collection & Dance Mixes/GA1

Hey Adabow, the review is up :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 23:30, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

I made a few small fixes and passed the article. Congrats :) Also, is there a book like the "Billboard Book of #1's" for the UK #1 singles? I remember you guys talking about it but I don't know the title or author. Do you know anyone that can scan it for me? Thanks! :D--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 08:34, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi Adabow, I am very sorry, but I failed B'Day, please see here for the full details. Hope you won't be upset :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 00:48, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi

Hello Adabow, have you really bought this I Am... Yours: An Intimate Performance at Wynn Las Vegas? Did you like it? Jivesh • Talk2Me 15:16, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

To tell you frankly. The Beyonce Experience is the best of all. Can i ask you something? Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:09, 19 March 2011 (UTC)

Have you been a fan of Beyonce since long or you started liking her recently? Jivesh • Talk2Me 02:31, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Ah okay, so it means you have a liking for ballads and hip hop music? I mean, "Diva" is .... I would say that i never thought Beyonce would sing such a song. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:38, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Ohhhhhhhh, we are similar. I am also sucker for ballads and mostly R&B music. I love "Naughty Girl", "Freakum Dress", "Welcome To Hollywood", "Single Ladies", "Sweet Dreams", "Video Phone", "Ring The Alarm", "Get Me Bodied" and "Irreplaceable". I like all her songs. I am way too impatient for the new song. Have you heard the beat? Source. Not sure if reliable. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:23, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

And are you sure "Hollywood" was a single? There is no source. Nothing on EIL, Amazon and Itunes. No release dates for airplay as well. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:23, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Where can i find the CD? I mean, i searched a lot but in vain. I think you are right because it charted on the ARIA Physical Singles Chart. Jivesh • Talk2Me 09:06, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Okay bye for now. I am leaving for tuition. I came home early as we celebrated Sports Day at School today. Jivesh • Talk2Me 09:11, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

This may be useful in expanding your sandbox for Beyonce's new album. She was influenced by a Nigerian Humanitarian whom she also impersonated for a magazine cover that fueled controversy. Jivesh • Talk2Me 16:49, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

"Irresistible"

Okay, I'll wait :) I get impatient quite often :D Lol, the song, it's okay :D Novice7 (talk) 08:22, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Hey Adabow, can you upload the samples of "Summertime" and "Fighting Temptations"? I don't have the soundtrack :( Novice7 (talk) 06:27, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Let me check the OVI store. It's for Jivesh btw. Novice7 (talk) 07:02, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Nooo!! I don't like it too. And, no sign of the soundtrack on OVI :D Novice7 (talk) 07:07, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Yup! Candy, Nathan, or Cprice? Novice7 (talk) 07:10, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

He seems online. Ozzy it is :D I'll ping Oz.Novice7 (talk) 07:14, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

I didn't see your comment :D I should have known this before. I struggled my way through Biology, and now I don't have to study it :D Novice7 (talk) 07:58, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

I love Chemistry. It's sooo fun (especially organic chemistry) I don't like Physics, as it is mostly the proven facts we have to learn. Chemistry gives different answers each time :) I love Math too. I used to love Disaster management. Novice7 (talk) 08:04, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

It was cool :) Too bad, we don't have it now :( Novice7 (talk) 08:12, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

Put it in A Love Song (Video Teaser)

Have you seen this? Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:11, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Work It Out (Beyoncé Knowles song)

Hello Adabow. I must ask another favor, if it is okay with you. Work It Out (Beyoncé Knowles song) went through its GA-Review and the reviewer stated that the article needs a MAJOR copy-editing! With the precise work you've done on Flaws and All, I was wondering if you could do the same for this article as well? Please let me know if you would be able to do this, thank you :] Theuhohreo (talk) 23:30, 23 March 2011 (UTC)

"You Make Me Wanna"

Hi Adabow, the article has been reviewed here, please address the issues for its promotion :)--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 05:19, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Hi :) I am passing it. Also I changed it from copies to clones, I think its more appropriate. Also, if you prefer some of those instead, its fine. Lastly, as for ref #6, there is indeed an author: Stephen Thomas Erlewine, so please add it and check the link.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 23:17, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

Please review "Tennis New Zealand"

Hello Adabow, I created this article Tennis New Zealand and I would appreciate any feedback. If you have any time, could you take a look at it. I was thinking as you are one of the senior members of WP NZ, you would be able to guide me to improve this article. And, of course, you are free to edit the article directly, thanks in advance. Bill william compton^Talk 17:00, 25 March 2011 (UTC)

RE:

I was thinking the same thing when it was first uploaded. It looks very fan-arty. But I saw it used on a site somewhere sometime, so I suppose it may be the real deal considering this cover. Candyo32 04:45, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

The review is up!

You were right. Thank you so much for giving me the right advice. PR of "Irresistible" is up. The reviewer asked to covert some of the passive voice sentences to active voice. Can you help me with that? I converted one or two, and am having a hard time finding out the subject and object, lol. Novice7 (talk) 04:27, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

Lol, yeah, I fixed it. Btw, can you help me out on the close paraphrasing issue? If you're not free, it's okay :) Novice7 (talk) 03:46, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Adabow, is it okay if I use "hebdomadally" instead of "each week"? Novice7 (talk) 04:29, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Lol, okay. It is a rare word, so I thought I should use it :D Novice7 (talk) 04:47, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

RE: Halo

Thank you so much for those links, and for the heads-up :D. If you want to make some comments with a neutral ending, I have no problem Tbhotch* ^۩ ۞ 06:49, 29 March 2011 (UTC).

Destiny's Child

Hi my friend. Most of Beyonce's Singles have been taken to GAs. A few articles remain but information is too scarce. So i was a bit surprised when i saw that at her Wiki project, the majority of her articles are classified as Start Class. Then, i saw that all Destiny's Child article are associated to her Wiki project. So i am going to revamp the Destiny's child singles one by one. Will you help? Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:05, 27 March 2011 (UTC)

Well, i did not really mean that i did not want to do Beyonce's DVDs or tours. It's just that i do not know how to expand them. i have asked for help countless times but no one was ready to do so. So, i prefer switching to Destiny Child articles as they also form part of the Wiki-project.

And wow, you have all that information. It will be of great help. Thanks in advance By the way, you did an amazing job on Above and Beyonce. I would really like you taking all her DVDs to GA. I shall work on I Am... World Tour in the near future. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:30, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Can we use this to source that Beyonce's debut album sold 11 million copies? Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:35, 28 March 2011 (UTC)

Well you kind of convinced me. So i am going to stick on Bey's articles. Jivesh • Talk2Me 15:17, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Have a look at this. It is simply great. Can it be used? Jivesh • Talk2Me 16:51, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. By the way, i am starting to work on "I Am... tour". Whenever you get time, give me a short list with notes about what it needs. Does the concert synopsis require references? Jivesh • Talk2Me 05:52, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

Thank you. Jivesh • Talk2Me 07:13, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

WikiCup 2011 March newsletter

We are half way through round two of the WikiCup, which will end on 28 April. Of the 64 current contestants, 32 will make it through to the next round; the two highest in each pool, and the 16 next highest scorers. At the time of writing, our current overall leader is Hurricanehink (submissions) with 231 points, who leads Pool H. Piotrus (submissions) (Pool G) also has over 200 points, while 9 others (three of whom are in Pool D) have over 100 points. Remember that certain content (specifically, articles/portals included in at least 20 Wikipedias as of 31 December 2010 or articles which are considered "vital") is worth double points if promoted to good or featured status, or if it appears on the main page in the Did You Know column. There were some articles last round which were eligible for double points, but which were not claimed for. For more details, see Wikipedia:WikiCup/Scoring.

A running total of claims can be seen here. However, numerous competitors are yet to score at all- please remember to submit content soon after it is promoted, so that the judges are able to review entries. The number of points that will be needed to reach round three is not clear- everyone needs to get their entries in now to guarantee their places! If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, 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!

Hank Williams

The article has no citations??? How's that??? all the statements in the article are properly sourced. I think that there's been a confusion by a recent change maid by a person that corrected copy edits that separated in smaller paragraphs the sourced material. I will correct this and maybe you can give it another look, since I wrote the article in base of some of the articles you previously cited.--GDuwenTell me! 15:21, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

No problem, I didn't realize neither of that until I read the article again. The format was changed and most of the sources displaced. I will renominate it again later.--GDuwenTell me! 20:33, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

Femme Fatale

So, I got myself the album (I downloaded it off OVI as I couldn't wait :D).. It's amazin'!! But, "Big Fat Bass" sounds too BEP-y. The tracks I liked are "Criminal", "Trouble for Me", "I Wanna Go", "Inside Out".... Novice7 (talk) 06:22, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

I can't choose. All the tracks are too good :P How was April 1? Novice7 (talk) 06:27, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Lol, I didn't buy the copy yet. I took it off OVI (cheaper and lossy). I'll be going for the Deluxe Edition soon (physical copy). I liked the song "Gasoline" (kinda resembles "Toxic") too :) Well, practical jokes are more prevalent. Omg, I haven't seen the DYKs yet, but I did see the AfDs. Novice7 (talk) 10:03, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Lol, it's funny :D I was looking at this. Lmao, too funny. Novice7 (talk) 10:45, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Lol, I love it too! Almost all of Ellen pranks are funny :D (like this) Novice7 (talk) 05:12, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Kind of :D Novice7 (talk) 05:19, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Re

Adabow, please read it well. It has been stated otherwise. And do you think that "Crazy in Love" would have got a GOLD certification for only 47000 digital downloads? And "Baby Boy" PLATINUM for 6000 downloads? Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:26, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

If you search RIAA database, you will see a small DI below the certification. Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:27, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

Please read the reply of Paul again. I am not fabulating anything. Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:27, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

Carlo asked about Beyonce's Dangerously In Love Pt. 2 (130K), her Irremplazable (Spanish-language) EP (57K) and Jay-Z's '03 Bonnie & Clyde (317K).

Next, I have a question about Usher's Love In This Club Pt. 2 (366K), Justin Timberlake/Beyonce's Until The End Of Time (271K plus 37K for a solo entry), and Beyonce's Live At Wembley (197K). Lara March asked about Beyonce's Diva (906K), Ego (357K) and Sweet Dreams (1,488,000). [...] Matteo Carta wants to know about physical sales of three Beyonce singles: Crazy In Love (47K), Baby Boy (6K) and Me Myself And I (119K).

Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:31, 2 April 2011 (UTC)

It does not matter Adabow. We are all human beings. Lol. The smiley was nice. Adabow, since you worked on Above and Beyonce, why don't you take her other DVDs to GA? If you want, i will help. I will be on holidays as from this week. I will start working on her discography and her "I Am... tour" as well as "I Am... World Tour". The last one will not require me so much time. I mean i think so because i added all the existing information months ago. Please reply. Jivesh • Talk2Me 05:11, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Adabow, if you do not mind, let me complete the discography. I have already done so much on it. Well, we may work together if you want. Concerning her videography, it really requires attention. Anyway, i forgot to ask you. What's up in real life? Still going to school or are you on holidays? Jivesh • Talk2Me 05:24, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

By the way, Ratizi has started working on Beyonce's mixtapes and DVDs. Jivesh • Talk2Me 05:26, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

I also have to weeks as holidays. Do you live in Australia or New Zealand? Jivesh • Talk2Me 05:28, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

It seems that you hate Australia. May i know why? Jivesh • Talk2Me 05:33, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

I have heard that Australians are racist. They do not like foreigners. By the way, was your country hit by any cyclones this year? Jivesh • Talk2Me 05:38, 3 April 2011 (UTC)

Yes, i heard about it. Well, i live in a tropical island. We normally have twelve cyclonic formations. This year, we got only three. And none hit the island. I have seen a cyclone making landfall on Mauritius or passing at a distance of at least 100 KM since 2002. Well Adabow, i have to go now. I am leaving for tuition: Chemistry and Statistics. Bye. See you soon. Till then, take care. Jivesh • Talk2Me 05:44, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
