== Help ==

Hey Ada! I'm leaving Wikipedia for now and I ''might'' return after one year. Could you keep an eye on my GAs/FLs? I have nomed "Thank God I Found You" for a GA, so please keep an eye on that too. Thanks for all your help. I'll miss you guys :) Regards, <font face="Arial" color="CornflowerBlue">[[User:Novice7|'''Novice7''']]</font> (<font face="Arial" color="DodgerBlue">[[User talk:Novice7|'''talk''']]</font>) 05:30, 22 May 2011 (UTC)

Thank You!

The Featured Sound Main Page Proposal Voter Barnstar
I was truly humbled by the overwhelming community support for the recent proposal to place featured sounds on the main page. The proposal closed on Tuesday with 57 people in support and only 2 in opposition.

It should take a few weeks for everything to get coded and tested, and once that is done the community will be presented with a mock up to assess on aesthetic appeal.

Finally, I invite all of you to participate in the featured sounds process itself. Whether you're a performer, an uploader, or just come across a sound file you find top quality, and that meets the featured sound criteria, you can nominate it at Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates. Featured sounds is also looking for people to help assess candidates (also at Wikipedia:Featured sound candidates.)

Thanks again for such a strong showing of support, and I hope to see you at featured sounds in the future.

"Here We Go Again"

Thanks Ada! Can you add an analysis of this to the article? Novice7 (talk) 05:46, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Thank you so much for helping out Adabow. Nancy Sinatra recorded a version of the song and it charted. Shall we create a section for it? Novice7 (talk) 07:16, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
I searched for Sinatra version and could not find much information. Maybe as a subsection of Ray Charles version? Lol, I thought you saw the message on WT:SONGS and then started working on the article. I was going to ask you for help, thanks for your help Ada :) Novice7 (talk) 09:39, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

You mentioned something about finding nominations. The article could use a summary of all the Grammy categories that this song was nominated in. Also, if you know how to find any reviews of the duet, that would help the article.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:13, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Also, how do we know if the current text includes all the countries that the song charted in?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:14, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
I am a bit lost on those foreign charts. E.G., I tried to look up the Japan charts and it was all in the Japanese alphabet.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 07:30, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
Site function?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 07:39, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
I thought that WP:GOODCHARTS said billboard won't have 2004 singles. Are you looking at the right chart for Japan.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 13:21, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Can you finish adding in the Billboard issn and such now that the article has most of its details filled in.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 12:27, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the help. Can you find cover art for the Nancy Sinatra version??--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 08:32, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Re: Unbroken

Ok so what does a co-nom do? lol. Sorry I'm just not use to this GAN stuff. Ozurbanmusic (talk) 23:13, 9 May 2011 (UTC)

Oh ok then. Have you heard Stan's new single? I love it! Do you think we should start a sandbox for it? Ozurbanmusic (talk) 06:53, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

Here is the sandbox for "Loud". Could you please expand the music video section (: Ozurbanmusic (talk) 07:16, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Link to video. I would do it myself but my internet's slow at the moment lol. Thanks, Ozurbanmusic (talk) 04:00, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

Lol

Please tell me you laughed when reading this. I legit buckled for a good minute :) Some people are just...wow lol.--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 05:20, 11 May 2011 (UTC)

Haha "Beyonce is a well known customer at most McDonalds" lol, that part got me :) Good luck on "Single ladies" BTW, I'll make sure to drop by tomorrow and have a looksy.--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 05:25, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
No need to tell you i have voted for Beyonce. Wow, she is getting the millennium award. Thanks for the co-nomination. Really thanks? Have you watched the latest 40 second long teaser? And it is her next single confirmed by THE SUN. I had the link. But i cannot find it now. Jivesh Talk2Me 14:05, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for the B'Day wish Andrew. Jivesh Talk2Me 15:09, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

Access thing

I'm bad at it, but can you do it for "Judas" and "Born This Way"? — Legolas (talk2me) 05:35, 13 May 2011 (UTC)

May 2011

I gave you an answer at my talk page, just to let you know, given that Wikipedia is huge... --Evengan (talk) 00:06, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

CJC

Hmm, Corey Jackson Carter?? Another instance of "Tre' Shon Jenkins" like vandalism? Novice7 (talk) 05:57, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

I already notified him :P Novice7 (talk) 07:22, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Hey Ada, if you're free, can you copyedit Just a Kiss? I'm out to lunch now, and I wrote the article hastily. I have written a lot of poor sentences, I'm sure. Thanks in advance :) Novice7 (talk) 07:55, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Thank YOU!!! Novice7 (talk) 10:28, 14 May 2011 (UTC)
Aah, that explains the ref thing :D It's okay :) Novice7 (talk) 10:45, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

I can't figure out how to download it, which makes the other stages impossible. Quite likely if I could download, I could do the rest.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 02:00, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

I thought that might be a video capture program, but it seems to be a standard converter so it does not help.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:08, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Re:Radio=Single

If this is the case, update Wikipedia:Promotional single, citing the argument. I Help, When I Can. [12] 04:15, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Um, I can't find the page... I Help, When I Can. [12] 04:17, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks Ada. But I can't archive it. Could you do it for me? Btw, "Just a Kiss" was sent to radios on May 2 :D I couldn't archive it (it kept on saying "failed") :( There's Kenny Chesney song comin' up, so if you could archive the page for me, it'd be great :) Novice7 (talk) 04:41, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

I'll try after a few hours :) Novice7 (talk) 04:51, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Re:Redirects

I know about it, I've read it before. It's just that, why bother writing "Australian Singles Chart" when it's much easier to write the link to "ARIA Charts" before it? It's not imperative to avoid redirects, I'm aware of that, but they irk me sometimes. Ss112 09:29, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

But why would someone create that? It's not called the Australian Singles Chart, that's just a convenient term because international readers don't really know what the ARIA Charts are. The capitals imply it's the official title of something. Even if that (regrettably) happened, couldn't someone just program a bot to change them all? I know that seems like a cop out, but it's possible. Ss112 09:41, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

DYK for Dirty Dancer

Hi, Adabow. Sorry to have to tell you that I raised a question at T:TDYK about the notability of the Dirty Dancer single. You can respond here, if you like, since I've temporarily watchlisted this page, but I'd suggest that it might be more appropriate to do so at T:TDYK itself, to keep the discussion all in one place.  – OhioStandard (talk) 11:32, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Mimi

Hi Ada. Thanks for caring about the situation, but as you can see, all I have done is drop a small message. Again, I'll just as before, go ahead and do it all myself. Not like I've been waiting 4 months for 4 sections on an article. And the funny thing is, even when I ask for these "sources" he's collected, he doesn't even respond, even though he replied to Mags only hours later. Its not bad faith, but it simply isn't proper or fair. Its fine, I'll complete it on my own and give him credit for the little he's done. I truly don't want anymore conflicts on Wiki, so I'll just ignore it and finish it on my own. Thanks for your input Ada :)--CallMeNathanTalk2Me 07:02, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Re: Recent good articles

Good call; they were just renames and confused the bot. Of course, I thought I had coded for that (at least a clear enough case as this). I see the problem but cannot fix it right now and I have a busy few days coming up; if I haven't resolved https://jira.toolserver.org/browse/JARRY-21 in a week's time though, it would be great if you reminded me.

lovestrong.

hello Adabow! If you have any free time on your hand, i would love if you could re-evaluate lovestrong. for me :D I've been working on the article for a while, and now that it's officially charted i think it might deserve an upgrade from it's rating. Lol Please let me know if this is a burden, I'll understand completely! :] Theuhohreo (talk) 19:10, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

as the pages creator, is their anything i can personally do to help 4 (Beyoncé Knowles album) be deleted faster? Theuhohreo (talk) 04:08, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Yes the video was so epic! By far, my favorite video out this year! Finally an artist that looks like she's trying! And the album cover has a timeless look to it, like it'll be around for ages! I can tell from now the entire album is gonna be very "african drums meet club synths"! :D Theuhohreo (talk) 04:15, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

btw, i forgot to thank you for re-evaluating lovestrong. for me! Thank you! :D Theuhohreo (talk) 04:15, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
