Hi oz!, not really a fan, but I tend to try and improve any article that I stumble upon, no matter what the subject. Zappa123 (talk) 15:23, 27 July 2011 (UTC)
As you are on the Wikiproject Mariah Carey, please write whether or not you think the current state of the article should keep or lose it's GA status here. Thanks. Calvin • 99917:49, 28 July 2011 (UTC)
Forgot I was a member of her WP. I don't think I should comment since I've never contributed to any of her articles. Sorry Oztalk05:18, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
Yeahyeahyeah
Yep, but can I do it on the weekend? I'm really tired at the moment. And I'm disappointed I'm reviewing another dance-pop one. :P —Andrewstalk09:24, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
Lol yeah I do like Chris but I prefer his more urban stuff. Actually, I hate most dance-poppy songs coming out recently, except RedOne's. —Andrewstalk09:33, 29 July 2011 (UTC)
Just thought I'd let you know that I haven't forgotten about the PR, but I've been kinda busy. Sorry, and I should complete it this weekend. :-) —Andrewstalk08:17, 5 August 2011 (UTC)

"Every artist is different, and therefore no two discographies will be exactly the same. Therefore, if there is a reasonable justification for deviating from the above guidelines to most accurately or appropriately document an artist's body of work, then ignore all the rules and go with what's best for the article. It is our goal to provide information in the best way possible, so a strict adherence to the guidelines listed above may not always be the best way to accomplish our goals. In an ideal situation however, any deviations from the guidelines should be with a clear purpose that is unique to the particular artist and situation in question."
Sebastian is in the unique situation of being only one of two Australian artists with more than one entry in the ARIA End Of Decade singles chart, plus he also had an enty in the album chart. All 3 entries were very high amongst other Australian artists. I believe that the chart in no way impinges on the clarity, accuracy or readability of the discography. In fact it help to show exactly how high he sits in Australian chart history. I have no problems with the Accreditation table being removed though.

Re: Jack Vidgen
Re your message: Yes, as the winner of the show, he would be notable enough for an article. When the article was deleted earlier, the season had not finished yet so the notability was not there, just the fan support and wishful thinking. I unprotected the article so you can move/copy the article in from your sandbox. -- Gogo Dodo (talk) 06:10, 4 August 2011 (UTC)

"Running Back"
I've got a few wiki tasks on the go, including a PR. After a week or so – unless something else crops up – I might swing by for a look at "Running Back".shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 23:07, 15 August 2011 (UTC)
I apologize for the delay and I understand your frustration over the long wait, but I have the review ready. I am still going through the references but there are still several prose issues waiting to be addressed. The review is found here. —WP:PENGUIN·[ TALK ]12:54, 16 August 2011 (UTC)
Why did you remove the edit? Mirror is a song that features Bruno Mars, and there is absolutely no reason why you reverted that edit. Please learn about Wikipedia more. --pdgator29talk01:29, 30 August 2011 (UTC)
Marry you is on the NZ SINGLES chart and the UK SINGLES chart and the IRELAND SINGLES chart pluss manny more charts
Therefore it is a single!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by BrunoMars123456789 (talk • contribs) 04:28, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
Many songs show up on the iTunes song charts, but that does not mean that they are a "single", as defined by the radio industry and for Wikipedia purposes. This song, while it may be selected as a single, has not yet been chosen as one (at least in the U.S.). StrikerforceTalkReview me!06:29, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
I noticed you were online from my watchlist, and was wondering if you could revert an edit for me. This user on Jumping Trains will not quit reverting my copyedit of the article, and re-adding unsourced and not well sourced content. — Status {talkcontribs23:02, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
I just copyedited it yesterday, removing the information that were from unreliable sources. The user reverted most of it. Twitter is the only thing the user added. — Status {talkcontribs23:17, 2 September 2011 (UTC)
Well my friend, i know we still do not have proof, by proof i mean a reliable link. But i hope you have noticed the number of IPs repeatedly removing "Party" as single. It seems the whole US knows it but i understand Wikipedia wants a source. I also want to tell you that there are many reliable sources claiming the releases of RTW and BTINH while for "Party", there is only allaccess and ThatGrapeJuice. Jivesh • Talk2Me08:48, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
Even though Wikipedia needs a source. Being my friend and knowing all my work on Beyonce's articles, i hope that at least you believe me. By the way, i think i have given a new twist to the discussion. Jivesh • Talk2Me10:19, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
Thanks my friend. Yes, they add songs that are not listed while they do not add those that are really being listed. Even more strange, Allaccess does not have its own page on Wikipedia. Anyway, now that it has been already nine week since the release of 4, what is your favorite sing from the record? Jivesh • Talk2Me10:42, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
I have the exact same choices for singles. Lol. And i really love "I Miss You". It is my favorite. Bye for now. We will talk later. Take care. Jivesh • Talk2Me10:56, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
I also left another source (from a radio station) and now they are telling that the radio station is confused. OMG. Simply incredible. Jivesh boodhun (talk / Make sure you give 4 a try!!!)11:55, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
"Party" was not cancelled as it was not even released. Cancel would apply if the song was already sent to radio but it did not do well blah blah blah, and so the label cancelled its release. Do you understand? And a source calling LOT as the third single confirms everything since we all know RTW and BTINH were released for real. Jivesh boodhun (talk / Make sure you give 4 a try!!!)12:05, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
No. By the way, i personally consider Beyonce to be the best live performer (not of all time, i mean as from the 2000s). She can dance, sing and act all live. And you??? Jivesh boodhun (talk / Make sure you give 4 a try!!!)12:29, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
You said that the cover of Keri Hilson's single Lose Control / Let Me Down was a fanmade cover, but it was taken from the Hung Medien website. A website that many people here indicates as "reliable source" and use in many songs's articles. So, you gotta check it out first and then delete it. .Loveableone (User talk:Loveableone|talk) 18:31, 11 September 2011 (UTC)
Yes, especially taking into consideration that she is a country artist. Hey, it seems LOT is getting played a lot in your country. Any specific reason. Hmmm like Beyonce visiting Australia? Jivesh 1205 (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫)12:05, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
Her NEW team is just $HIT (Sorry for this word). She better bring her daddy back. He was the best. Her team should have capitalize on LOT immediately after seeing the amazing response of the MTV Awards. But they waited for a whole month. When the song was already falling on iTunes worldwide (except Australia, UK, New Zealand). I believe "Countdown", "End of Time", "Schoolin' Life" and "I Miss You" are smashes waiting to happen, i mean they are better single choices. Jivesh 1205 (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫)12:14, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
Judging from how unprofessionally this era has been handled, i will be very happy if Beyonce ends up scoring at least one Top 5 hit worldwide. I want to say number one but let's not be too greedy. Lol. I also hope the album sells at least 3 million worldwide. It currently stands at 1.6 million. Jivesh 1205 (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫)12:27, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
If you pay attention to US radios right now, RTW is the kind of song they are constantly playing. To be frank, Beyonce's come-back was horribly scheduled like this whole era. Even worse, it leaked. Thinks like songs leaking have become just too common nowadays. The problem was that it was rushed released. There was no need for that. Her team is such crap that they accidentally made the song available on iTunes worldwide for free for eight hours. People had been downloading that song for free for eight hours. If i was Beyonce, i would sack her team. Jivesh 1205 (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫)12:38, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
Exactly. I could not have said that better. Even funnier, did you know that RTW is still in the top 150 of US iTunes and people call that a flop. A song does not stay there for so long. What is funny here is that RTW spent most of its time in the 40<X<150 region and not in the top 40. I have to go now. It is getting late. It is 5pm here. So i guess it must be 11pm in your country. Bye take care. And let me tell you that it is always an immense pleasure to talk with a nice friend like you. See you soon. Jivesh 1205 (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫)12:57, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssss. I am so happy. Craft a really good one to the point that if Beyonce ever sees it, she becomes like this and then gets up to dance like this. If you miss anything, i will add them when you finish and i hope you know that you will have to visit her singles and album's pages one by one. You will get most of the sources there. Especially, "Single Ladies" will be the icing on the cake. And Oprah should be left like this after she reads that section. (She is a great fan). ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫)07:38, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
A barn-star for you
The Queen B Award
For all your hard work in maintaining several articles of Queen B, especially her bio page, I award you this. Your work is very much appreciated, as is your kindness :) Hope you don't go anywhere anytime soon my fiend because i know you will do miracles on that bio page. Lol. ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫)07:42, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
Lol. Do you know why i took long to reply you the last time? Because i was also hungry and went to have my lunch. Lol. By the way, i took only 10 minutes but you took more than an hour. Did you eat all the food available in Australia or what? Lol. By the way, is Beyonce really coming for X-Factor in your country? She should do something for the album in Oceania. ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫)09:45, 21 September 2011 (UTC)
Those are, nevertheless, not great achievements by Beyonce's standard and we have to deal with it. I believe, I Am... Sasha Fierce will end up 4*Platinum in your country. Do you feel Adele is overrated? ★Jivesh 1205★ (talk / ♫♫Give 4 a try!!!♫♫)10:22, 21 September 2011 (UTC)

I'm having a little trouble on a different article, Exclusive (album). I revert some IP editor twice for introducing incorrect MOS/Caps, but immediately some registered editor made the same exact edit, reverting me. If they are the same person, how should I handle it?
