What now?

You're being quite bitchy! What do you mean MY EDITS were senseless? Are you on your period or something? What the hell is wrong with you?! Chicago Wiz 02:07, 19 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@OZODOR: First of all I am a BOY! So if boys have period tell me about it! Btw, they were, why adding the {{.}} thing or whatever when we have a flat list (radio is not a format too). Second, adding genres WITHOUT a source, seriously dude? And last which the most senseless, There is no date officially confirmed for the video yet, but it is expected to be released very soon.: when the video is out we can have information about it in the lead, until then, let it be as it is. 08:46, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

@Tomica: You just made it sound like I was retarded or something! I didn't know you were a guy! I'm sorry but it just hurt my feelings when you said that it was "senseless." But now I see what you're talking about and I apologize for that. Chicago Wiz 16:22, 19 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@OZODOR: "Senseless" =/= "Retarded". If you check the dictionary they are 2 different meanings. And btw, even an experienced user can make some unneeded edits. Greetings.— Tomíca^(T2ME) 16:27, 19 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Martin vs Max Martin

Unless I'm mistake and I apologise in advance, you're the first user to ever refuse to shorten Max Martin to Martin on recurring mentions. My knowledge of policies is that there is no such reason for it not to happen so this warning about intervening and admins is not only harsh to other editors it seems baseless and based on preference too rather than solid editing policy. I've brought it up on the talk page Talk:Prism_(Katy_Perry_album)#Martin_vs_Max_Martin as it should probably be discussed. If there is a valid reason for not shortening his name please feel free to link the policy etc and I apologise. I would agree in principle if it was a case of Dr.Luke (i.e. his writer name is Lukasz Gottwald but producer name is Dr. Luke) whereas Karl Martin Sandberg has been credited as Max Martin for both writing and production so there's no valid reason not to shorten this upon reoccurances. Not shorting is simple redundancy. At the very least if harsh messages that aren't backed by an obvious policy are hidden into text there should at least be a note at some talk page somewhere. → Lil-℧niquԐ 1 - { Talk } - 22:29, 19 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

DYK nomination of No Love Allowed

Hello! Your submission of No Love Allowed at the Did You Know nominations page has been reviewed, and some issues with it may need to be clarified. Please review the comment(s) underneath your nomination's entry and respond there as soon as possible. Thank you for contributing to Did You Know!

Stargate (production team)

Hi Tomica, why did you change every instance of "Stargate" in the "Prism (Katy Perry)" article back to "StarGate"? The name is lowercased in Teenage Dream (Katy Perry album) but more importantly, the article name and category ("Stargate (production team)" and "Category:Albums produced by Stargate") are both lowercased. Thanks. Acalamari 14:10, 25 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Because both of them are wrong (I would redirect the article, but it is protected). Their production name is StarGate (if you open the Metacritic page for Prism you will see how they are written). Cheers! — Tomíca^(T2ME) 14:41, 25 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Britney Jean

Hey there! :) I agree that the cover is really good. I'm not really feeling that neon-style logo but I feel like it's a reference to her Vegas residency lol. I am excited for "Perfume", I have high hopes for that song. — Saulo ^{Talk to Me} 23:39, 25 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification for October 26

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited What Now (song), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Bass (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). 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.

PNG or JPG?

I have a quick question, I notice you have replaced the Wrapped in Cover that I have uploaded with a PNG version, is it always preferable to have a PNG version of an image for the album infobox? Because usually, I upload the JPG cover because it is much smaller in size, and loads faster thanks to its size. SyFuel^Ignite_Burned 15:09, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Syfuel: Hi. Well, I prefer png because the colors are lot more clearer and the cover gains its original picture. When it compress in the infobox, the jpg versions of the covers lose a lot of colors and elements of the picture itself (especially the red color). That's why I prefer uploading them in png. Cheers! — Tomíca^(T2ME) 15:11, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So basically, it would be better for me to upload any album/single covers in PNG then? 'cause if it is, I will start doing the same. :) SyFuel^Ignite_Burned 15:18, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed is ;). — Tomíca^(T2ME) 15:25, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the info! :) SyFuel^Ignite_Burned 15:30, 29 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

DYK for Nobody's Business (song)

On 30 October 2013, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Nobody's Business (song), which you created or substantially expanded. The fact was ... that the song "Nobody's Business", by Rihanna featuring Chris Brown, contains interpolation from Michael Jackson's 1987 single "The Way You Make Me Feel"? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Nobody's Business (song). You are welcome to check how many hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, quick check) and it will be added to DYKSTATS if it got over 5,000. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the Did you know? talk page.

Why?

Why would you do the same thing I did on Britney Jean's album cover? It was the same edit. Not trying to start anything, just want to know why it's okay for you to do it and not me? livelikemusic ^{my talk page!} 13:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Britney Jean cover

What program did you use to resize the Britney Jean cover? The colors are not correct, this is the original cover: http://cfn.groundctrl.net/clients/britney_spears/media/04/04/images/assets/original.arAyI29WktNxjYgYuVDMw993Qa6DApC-Em6lUytyNGY.jpg So then why would it mater to use png to preserve the colors if the colors aren't correct in the version you reverted? Gcampbell92 (talk) 19:23, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

November 2013

Your recent editing history at File:Britney Jean.png shows that you are currently engaged in an edit war. Being involved in an edit war can result in your being blocked from editing—especially if you violate the three-revert rule, which states that an editor must not perform more than three reverts on a single page within a 24-hour period. Undoing another editor's work—whether in whole or in part, whether involving the same or different material each time—counts as a revert. Also keep in mind that while violating the three-revert rule often leads to a block, you can still be blocked for edit warring—even if you don't violate the three-revert rule—should your behavior indicate that you intend to continue reverting repeatedly.

To avoid being blocked, instead of reverting please consider using the article's talk page to work toward making a version that represents consensus among editors. See BRD for how this is done. You can post a request for help at a relevant noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases, you may wish to request temporary page protection.

WikiCup award

@J Milburn: Thank you. — Tomíca^(T2ME) 18:11, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hey...

What's been up? Thanks for watching "Love the Way You Lie" while I was gone! The Wikipedian Penguin 13:25, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Wikipedian Penguin: "The Monster" is UP! :D Do you like it? I love it! There is a chance for us to collaborate on a FA :P. Btw, no problem, I am always here for "Love the Way You Lie" ;). Cheers! — Tomíca^(T2ME) 13:52, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't heard it yet (I know, I am a pathetic Eminem fan...). But "Rap God" is so good. But what the hell is going on with the album? Four singles already? A collaboration will happen; I just don't know when! The Wikipedian Penguin 13:54, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I love "Rap God" too. Just hear it it's so good. Lol I have some exams now too, so I guess we will manage sometimes to build it good ;). — Tomíca^(T2ME) 14:04, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Good luck with your exams! The Wikipedian Penguin 14:19, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Wow, you're right. It's like a throwback to "Love the Way You Lie". The Wikipedian Penguin 16:30, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Indeed, frankly I don't know which one I like more. Rihanna's vocals are so good on the song, also she has a writing credit this time too, makes me even more happier with it. :) Em part's is powerful too. Definitely will chart high on the charts. — Tomíca^(T2ME) 16:33, 3 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hey

How are you? I've got hardly any time to spend on here anymore. I have too many other studies. I went to Oslo at the weekend. — ₳aron 14:15, 4 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Why do you keep reverting my Blackout cover it has the correct colors for web and is a smaller file which Status told me that the smaller, the better? Gcampbell92 (talk) 14:50, 5 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
