Hi

Hey ADA, long time no speak :) Sure I'd love that!--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 08:45, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Betty (song)

Sorry for the over-linking on Betty (song). Kiwi128 (talk) 03:06, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

A request

Hi there Adabow! Hope you're good. If possible, when you're free (I mean if you're free from wiki, and real life work), can you do a synopsis of Kylie Minogue's Spinning Around? I've seen your works on mv synopsis. Help much appreciated. I hope you don't have to waster your time on this. Novice7 | Talk 17:20, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Lol, it's okay then. I usually edit Whitney and Jessica articles, and thought I could do some Kylie stuff for a change. Novice7 | Talk 03:14, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Kissing You

No of course not, if anything i thank you for helping out this orphaned "anorexic" article! Hahahaaaa You did a really nice job on increasing the articles information, especially since it's such an old song... The only thing I would advise is that Beyoncé were to keep her song-infobox in a separated part of the article, as it has become pretty notable since the involved lawsuit and controversy that followed. What do you think? Theuhohreo (talk) 15:40, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Wooho release history

Thanks for adding in the additional dates! I was trying to, but sorta messed up on the code. --ĈÞЯİŒ 1ооо 01:13, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Jessica Mauboy discography

Hi Adabow, I'm thinking of re-nominating the Jessica Mauboy discography to become a featured list again. Do you think its possible? Ozurbanmusic (talk) 04:32, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

I think its very possible. It's a shame that the Japan Hot 100 link went dead, maybe you could ask someone with a Billboard online subscription to look it up for you and provide you with a new ref. If you want a hand with anything, just ask. Adabow (talk · contribs) 08:46, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Ok thanks! um what do you mean by Billboard online subscription, and what does that have to do with the Japan Hot 100? Sorry I'm lost. lol Ozurbanmusic (talk) 11:45, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Billboard publishes the Japan Hot 100, and it is much easier to find songs with an online subscription. If you have some spare time, trawl through the "Biggest jump" charts of various weeks here. Adabow (talk · contribs) 22:15, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Ok thanks, I understand now. I've found a user with a Billboard online subsription so that's good. However, I may need your help with finding reliable sources for the "Running Back", "Burn", "Because" and "Everyone" directors. There were sources but their links don't exist anymore. Would you be able to help me please? Ozurbanmusic (talk) 11:44, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

When Love Takes Over FA

thanks for the comments. I believe I've resolved them? -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 ^[talk] 03:37, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

New Zealand Top 50 SIngles of 2010

Hey Adabow! can i just say you have contributed great to the wikipedia community and done alot for some articles that I have been interested in. So i'd like to ask if you would help complete an article that I have already started. I'm not sure if you know but the whole complete annual top 50 singles in New Zealand have been released onto the RIANZ site. Here's the link here. So what i need help with is to make the article to show the top 50 singles of 2010. You dont have to though but it is much appreciated if you do :D. The link to the article.

Thankyou Adabow and I hope you had fun on your wikibreak!

(ReganS5203 (talk) 05:37, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

That's ok Adabow, thankyou for replying and good on you for doing the album one this year!

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/New Zealand Top 50 Singles of 2001

Hi Adabow,

I thought I'd better point out (even though I disagree with it!) that your group AFD is procedurally incorrect, per WP:BUNDLE. Each nominated page needs to carry a deletion template pointing to the discussion. Any page deleted without warning would be automatically eligible for undeletion. dramatic (talk) 19:57, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

GA Review

Hey I passed Here I Stand, it has no issues. Great Work!--Blackjacks101 (talk) 21:13, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

What Goes Around... Reassessment

Hey. I'd just like to know what your thoughts are about What Goes Around.../...Comes Around being a GA. I was going to attempt to fix it up to keep it at GA level, but it just lacks a lot of things, and I don't feel like it was correctly reviewed in the first place. Please, if you can, leave your comments here. Thanks so much! ℥^nding·start 23:12, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Irreplaceable by beyonce.

Hi Adabow, i hope you are well? Can you please help me? Please write a synopsis section for the video of "Irreplaceable". Will you do it? Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:25, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank you Adabow. You know i was fearing that "Deja Vu" and "Irreplaceable" could get de-listed but i managed to fix them and i even did a great expansion. I just hope it is okay now. I have also worked on "Ring The Alarm". I adore that song. I will expand the rest of B'Day singles (already GAs) in the coming days. Do you plan to work on "Still in Love (Kissing You)"? Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:38, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

You should not say that. I swear on myself and Beyonce that i really like your work. When you search for reviews. 1. Go to Bing.com 2. Type Review of (album name) by (artist). 3. See all results on the first 28 pages.

This is what i always do. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:44, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Oh yes yes yes yes. Legolas just told me to do that. But i am not very good at that. He told it should be according to the critical reception. Read it, you will understand. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:50, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

I am putting back the image of "Irreplaceable". I saw recent comments on Legolas page. He says sometimes FAs have their own rules and the image was already present when the article was taken to FA. Please do not be angry. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:52, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Adabow, did you try HighBeam.com and Google News Archive. I get most of mine outta there. Correction: I meant Kissing You reviews. Novice7 | Talk 11:58, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Are you still here? Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:00, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Great great great. Thank you. I will do as you say and then contact you later. "Beautiful Liar" is just. I do not know what to say as there are practically no reviews. So you can upload the chorus. As for the rest, i will work on them and let you know. I have to go for now. I will be back in three hours or less. I have to go and fetch my sister from school. Than you wholeheartedly. You are great. One last thing, i adore "Sing Like Me". Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:13, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Good night and sweet dreams. Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:18, 24 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi, Adabow? Do you personally think that "Single Ladies" is not GA-worthy? Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:36, 25 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi, hope you are fine? What do you mean by prose? Jivesh • Talk2Me 14:01, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

If you allow me, i can do both the composition and critical reception sections for "Kissing you" (but the one Beyonce covered). Jivesh • Talk2Me 17:58, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

Oh thanks you Adabow. Trust me, i know it takes long ti type all this. Lol. Really, thank you a lot. You are very helpful and reliable. Jivesh • Talk2Me 15:23, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi again. Can you please search for the performance of "Beautiful Liar" on The Beyonce Live Experience in Los Angeles and describe it for me. Please. Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:34, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

My GA reviewer of "Check on It" said that it can be sourced by using the DVD liner notes. I know it is a bit strange but see Check on It, Ring The Alarm. All do that. Jivesh • Talk2Me 15:35, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

And if you want to expand BHG, see this. Jivesh • Talk2Me 16:33, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

Please Adabow, write the synopsis. Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:18, 30 January 2011 (UTC)

Please reply. Jivesh • Talk2Me 11:31, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so so much. Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:44, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Ummm can you add the credits and personnel for "Get Me Bodies" and "Greenlight" when you are a bit free.? Please. Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:44, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Gregg's various.JPG

Why do you say it's nonfree? I'm open to deletion of old non-free images upon uploader request. Nyttend (talk) 02:59, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

I see what you mean — at first I thought perhaps you meant that you copied the image from somewhere on the Internet and weren't the actual photographer. Rather than deletion, I'm going to take this image to WP:MCQ. Nyttend (talk) 03:03, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Deleted. Sorry for the delay — I'm in the middle of the January 31–February 2, 2011 North American blizzard. Nyttend (talk) 17:05, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Kissing You credits

Hi Adabowz ;) While stalking your contribs, I found out you were looking for it. Maybe this, this and this would help? Novice7 | Talk 10:45, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Awww you're most welcome. I would not be human if I didn't help someone who is my friend and helps me out, a lot.. Actually, I use Discogs for adding credits sometimes (when I don't have that CD). Yes, Google News Archive and HighBeam are amazing :) Novice7 | Talk 10:55, 27 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi! Amazing work on Rap/Sung Grammy :) Novice7 | Talk 03:11, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Rap/Sung Grammy

WELL DONE! The list looks great and is highly consistent with the other Grammy lists that have been promoted to FL status. I made just a few edits for consistency. Be sure to add alt text to the images before nominating the list for FL status, should you choose to do so! Keep up the great work, and even though I keep an eye at FLC be sure to keep me up to date if you work on other Grammy lists so that I can mark them off my list! :) --Another Believer _(Talk) 16:21, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

Get Me Bodied

Thank you a lot. Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:32, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Yes, i will do it soon. Did you know "Freakum Dress" GA failed in .. less that 4 hours or even less? Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:40, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Thank you wholeheartedly for always being here whenever i need help. You are someone very nice. Really. Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:51, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi!

Hi Adabowz :) I was wondering if you could copy-edit the mv section of Spinning Around. I can see that you'll be less active as your school starts on Feb 3. I'm not finished with the article yet, so there'd not be any good information. Also, is Blogcritics reliable? Novice7 | Talk 09:05, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Okay. Thanks :) Novice7 | Talk 09:07, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so much :) Novice7 | Talk 11:51, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

BLPPROD of Proud Scum

Hi,

I have removed the BLPPROD you placed on Proud Scum. That article is about a band, not a person, and WP:BLPPROD#Scope says it only applies to actual biographies, not other articles that contain biographical information. Furthermore, the article lists sources, so I am not sure why you believed it to be unsourced. If you think the band isn't notable or that the article should be deleted for some other reason, feel free to place an ordinary PROD tag on the article or nominate it for deletion at AFD. Calathan (talk) 22:08, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

I think articles on bands would be included in WP:BIOG's scope but would still be excluded from BLPPROD. The way I read the "scope" section of the BLPPROD page is that it is only meant to apply to articles about one single person. I know that many lists of people are tagged as being in the scope of WP:BIOG, but the WP:BLPPROD page says those aren't covered by the deletion policy. I think that bands would be a similar situation, though I'm not 100% sure of that. Calathan (talk) 22:30, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

Two articles we need

Hi Adabow, You seem to work on music articles quite a bit, so I thought I'd point out that we have no article on Patea Māori Club (athough there are articles on Poi E and Poi E (album)), and no article on the Nesian Mystik album 99 A.D.. You might be interested in working on one or both of these. PMC would make a good DYK, because Poi E is unique (in NZ at least) for charting in 3 decades. dramatic (talk) 22:14, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

Bey Credits

Heyy I saw that you edited the "Credits" of "Beautiful Liar", and i was wondering if you actually have the booklet of the deluxe edition of B'Day on you? Because I don't, and I could really use your help on filling those in on "Amor Gitano". I'm trying to revitalize the article :p. Please let me know if you can, thanx! :D Theuhohreo (talk) 21:44, 4 February 2011 (UTC)

Please let me know if i'm being an annoying bitch, but would u mind adding additional credits to "Flaws and All" too??? It's up for GA review soon and to have it in tip-top shape, i would love that :p. You just happen to be the only person I know on wikipedia who actually has the deluxe edition album booklet on 'em :p THANX Theuhohreo (talk) 06:27, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

Notes and discographies

Hi Adabow! Hope your school's going well :) Okay, so, you might remember my first FL nomination for Jessica Simpson discography, right? You asked me to remove the notes regarding the country charts. What about this? Should the notes be removed from this discography too? Novice7 | Talk 06:11, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Thanks. Lol, glad to know its great :) I'm enjoying the last few days of my school life :( Oh well, guess I'd have to get acquainted with college life. Novice7 | Talk 09:09, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Jivesh here

Hi. I need your help and it is urgent. Please please reply me. Jivesh • Talk2Me 15:24, 11 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi, i have recently expanded th music video section of "Diva" with some interesting information. I need you to upload an image similar to that for the music video of "Single Ladies" so that what i have added can be illustrated visually. Upload the second and third images from this link in the form of a single image. Are you able to understand what i mean? Jivesh • Talk2Me 08:15, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Actually, i was making reference to the scene where the car explodes. The two pictures show the similarities effectively. Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:06, 12 February 2011 (UTC)
