I'm not sure if I can comment, support or not, since I contributed to the article with one of the copy-edits. If you havent already, you could try soliciting random users from the article's associated WikiProjects, like R&B/soul or WP:SONGS. Tomcat7 and BrothaTimothy are experienced editors who've reviewed R&B articles before for FA, for instance. Dan56 (talk) 03:23, 4 March 2013 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Brunomars-natalie.jpg)
Thanks for uploading File:Brunomars-natalie.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:44, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
Hey there! I was wondering if you think this new source (from yesterday) is reliable enough to use as an updated singles figure on the Rihanna page? Given Rolling Stone's reliable and neutral status? We know the current figure of 75 million is extremely conservative given that Billboard confirmed 58 million singles in the US alone (as of late 2012).
The article might also be good to quote from in the new legacy section: "Going by numbers alone, Rihanna is already written into the history books in bold ink." 333cale (talk) 04:35, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
Well the source says 100 million records, which is already in the article [25 million albums and 75 million singles], I don't see a reason for repeating sources. If it said 100 million singles, then it would be different story. Btw, good contribution to the legacy section. Cheers! — Tomíca(T2ME)08:20, 6 March 2013 (UTC)
Oh, true- I assumed that their "digital sales" was only referencing singles (like Billboard's US numbers). But you're right, it's not explicit in that. And thanks very much! Glad I could help. 333cale (talk) 22:43, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
Which "source"? The one introduced by the spamming editor wp:COIN who is doing his best to spam Jonathan Hay into everything? The editor who is trying to pretend they accidendly mistook United Kingdom for "University of Kentucky" see [1] Jonathan Hay is really important?. See also the COIN and the ANI about that editor. duffbeerforme (talk) 15:22, 12 March 2013 (UTC)
Those are perfectly good sources when it comes to release dates for songs and albums. Otherwise how we gonna do the release chronology. Remove the span thing, but don't take those sources. They are crucial.— Tomíca(T2ME)13:43, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
They are not. Where is the "reputation for fact-checking and accuracy". nowhere cause they are trying to sell a product. They are not crucial, they are spam. duffbeerforme (talk) 14:07, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
Chartbot
I noticed that you reverted Chartbot here. I looked into it, and saw that Billboard has a bit of database corruption, with multiple entries for "Justin Timberlake". I fixed {{BillboardID/J}} to point at the uncorrupted version.
Please, when you see something like this, let me know. If you revert Chartbot, it's just going to make the same mistake the next time unless you tell me.—Kww(talk) 00:36, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
Revert of my edit
What is wrong with my edit that just changes the reflink by using the given template? All other charts were added by using the template, but these four not? i cannot understand this. --Ali1610 (talk) 16:56, 13 March 2013 (UTC)

Doesn't he release he is the spam indeed, not the release sources LOL. Good, it was reverted by some other user. ;) — Tomíca(T2ME)15:49, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
Actually, he had a point. We normally don't use commercial links as references. What's so important about having individual release dates for every European country that it warrants a rack of commercial links?—Kww(talk) 17:16, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
Hi. Settlted down a bit. I'd just like in the future that if you disagere with my effort to improve this encyclopediedia I'd appreciate that you did not reduce things to personal attacks on my inteligence. duffbeerforme (talk) 12:18, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
File:Rihanna pour it up choreography.png listed for deletion
Hi Tomica. I nominated this article. I worked hard on it and I really want it to become a GA. I saw you already reviewed some music-related GAs, so I'd like to ask you to review it if you got the time. Thanks in advance!--Rod840 (talk) 21:00, 22 March 2013 (UTC)
Indeed, although I am more in Rated R and I have a super plan for it that I am gonna tell it to you later if you are online ;) ! — Tomíca(T2ME)15:59, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
I also agree that it doesn't need to be updated for every song. But I see that the songs there right now are incorrect. The source cited there is an unreliable source, they are wrong. Perhaps put "Taylor's Choice" or "Alternate Song" or something like that? 99.13.112.205 (talk) 16:28, 23 March 2013 (UTC)
Eurovision-fever is vast upon us with all songs and artists having already been selected, and the contest itself is just around the corner. So we as a collective need to be as vigilant as possible when it comes to content being updated to respective articles connected to Malmö 2013. Please remember to use citations to reliable sources on everything. If in doubt, then use the article talk page and/or the project talk page for open discussion.
The project has yet again gained another accolade on an annual article with the ABU TV Song Festival 2012 receiving GA classification. That is now 3 within a year, with the first being Eurovision Song Contest 2012 back in July last year, and ABU Radio Song Festival 2012 being the second last month. Congratulations once again to everyone who has helped to contribute to those respective articles. Now that we're gaining high accolades, let's see if we can maintain that by continuing to work as a team.
Please could we also help to improve the articles listed below, they vary from stub articles that require expansion, to general tidy-up and additional sources required. As always, be on the look out for potential new members to the project. Post {{subst:EurovisionInvite}} (which will produced this template) on any user page you think is interested to join the WikiProject, to officially invite them to join.
Please remember to keep checking the project articles that have been flagged up as an alert. Since our last publication the following are listed as alerts:
Please can we also remember to keep this article well presented based on the layout that was agreed upon via the Project RfC. If in doubt, check Eurovision Song Contest 2012 as an example. That article is using the new layout format and gained the project it's first GA-class on annual pages. Let's maintain that high standard.
Also remember to communicate with fellow project members via the article talk or Project talk page, as communication is an important tool if we aim to collaborate as part of a team.

The second ABU TV Song Festival is scheduled to take place on 26 October 2013, in the Vietnamese capital of Hanoi. The host broadcaster will be Vietnam Television.
ABU Radio Song Festival 2014 - It was announced on 11 October 2012 that the 2014 Radio Festival will take place in Australia hosted by radio broadcaster ABC Australia.
As it is too soon to start work on the new article, can we please try and avoid creating one. Unless of course, there's enough information out there that would warrant an early creation.
