Can you please stop adding this information that isn't relevant to the article. It is unnecessary to date back to 2010 and add information that was from a previous album. Take a look at any Featured article and you'll see. Btw "alongside with" is gramatically incorrect. Till 16:08, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

No, cause the information can stay. There are readers which are not familiar with Rihanna's previous projects. The information will help them get that Rihanna released albums in like every year, when they read that. Example. — Tomica (talk) 16:10, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
-Sigh- I think I was clear when I said a Featured article, not a Good article. GAs do not reflect Wikipedia's best work, whereas FAs such as this or this do. This isn't about the fact that a bulk of irrelevant information is being removed, it's about your attitude and how you communicate with other editors in editing articles. I have been seeing this behaviour from you for such a long time, and it is getting quite pathetic to be honest. Edits like this, this and this show you labeling reverts as 'vandalism' when the editors are making a good-faith contributions to the article. Whereas edits like this one and this one really do reflect your WP:OWN-style behaviour. I cannot believe you called that edit vandalism when they started the page which you created. You actually need to read what WP:Vandalism says to understand it, which is: Any addition, removal, or change of content in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia. It is not a substitute for what you disagree with. Now I am being reverted for removing utter nonsense and junk that isn't relevant to the article at all? No, I'm not going down this road to eventually get blocked. And for the last fucking time, "alongside with" is gramatically incorrect, my gosh. Till 16:29, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
Then copy-edit it if it's grammatically incorrect, the article is not mine so everyone can contribute to it Thank God. I don't see if you have seen WP:SONGS, but when song didn't chart it's not notable to have its own article on Wikipedia. That's what "Diamonds" is. The user were creating the article with only 4 references that were not reliable and was full with WP:CRYSTAL. I created the article with fully information. I don't see what is wrong maintaining an article. And as I said preparing article for feature (something similar as pain in the ass) and working on a song that was just released is something very very very different which I believe you know that. And I already show you a good example of a background so it clearly can stay. I would suggest you WP:RELAX. PS. They purely vandalized with removing a source information — Tomica (talk) 16:37, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
Oh don't make me puke with this BS. At least acknowledge that you're bitter that someone else started the article before you. THAT IS NOT VANDALISM AND YOU CAN'T MARK THE REVERT AS VANDALISM. Next time I see you label something as 'vandalism' when it's not, I'll be reporting you for article ownership and, not telling the truth in edit summaries. Till 16:47, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
Bravo. How about a round of applause for your language... awesome, an editor who had a bunch of GA's (to whom I helped also) is talking like this to me. Sorry, but before report me, I can do before you If you don't calm down your language in here. — Tomica (talk) 16:53, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
Oh for fuck's sake, no one cares about how many GAs anyone has had! This is about your attitude towards editing in a positive way with the community. And by the way I can swear however much I want—Wikipedia is not censored. Till 17:00, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
Unless you are adding attacks towards me (like wanting to puke me with the BS). I am saying that you are AN EXPERIENCE USER don't get everything literal, however, you don't act like one that has experience. Obviously this is not your first time removing Background when clearly can stay. I am disappointed at you, a lot tbh. — Tomica (talk) 17:02, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
...Your ignorance continues to astound me. Till 17:33, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
Again with the marking of vandalism? By the way, you have reverted other editors four times in a single 24 hour period. Till 17:15, 29 September 2012 (UTC)
Wow, Tomica, I have just looked to see that you reverted five separate times. Sorry but that's a report, please see here. Till 17:19, 29 September 2012 (UTC)

Turning Tables GA

Hi Tomica. I've just reviewed Turning Tables for GA and passed it. I don't know whether you plan to take it forward to FAC at a future date, but have made a couple of comments there in case you had that in mind. Anyway, good work and congratulations on having one of your articles promoted. Cheers Paul MacDermott (talk) 13:52, 29 September 2012 (UTC)

Thank You very much.:) Also thanks for the advices, but I don't planning take it to FAC in near future. But If sometimes I do I will take your advices :D. Cheers ! — Tomica (talk) 15:58, 29 September 2012 (UTC)

WikiCup 2012 September newsletter

We're over half way through the final, and so it is less than a month until we know for certain our 2012 WikiCup champion. Conradh na Gaeilge Grapple X (submissions) currently leads, followed by Canada Sasata (submissions), Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions) and Scotland Casliber (submissions). However, we have no one resembling a breakaway leader, and so the competition is a long way from over. Next month's newsletter will feature a list of our winners (who are not necessarily only the finalists) and keep your eyes open for an article on the WikiCup in a future edition of The Signpost. The leaders are already on a par with last year's winners, but a long way from the huge scores seen in 2010. That said, a repeat of the competition from 2010 seems unlikely.

It is good to see that three-quarters of our finalists have already scored bonus points this round. This shows that, contrary to criticism that the WikiCup has received in the past, the competition does not merely incentivise the writing of trivial articles; instead, our top competitors are still spending their time contributing to high-importance articles, and bringing them to a high standard. This does a great service to the encyclopedia and its readers. Thank you, and good work!

The planning for next year's WikiCup is ongoing. Some straw polls have been opened concerning the scoring, and you can now sign up for next year's competition. As ever, if you are concerned that your nomination—whether it is at good article candidates, a featured process, or anywhere else—will not receive the necessary reviews, please list it on Wikipedia:WikiCup/Reviews. Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck! If you wish to start or stop receiving this newsletter, please feel free to add or remove yourself from Wikipedia:WikiCup/Newsletter/Send.

Diamonds

Do you like it? AARONTALK 16:32, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Yeah Aaron I do, it's totally something that I didn't expect. (thank God is not dance... I am over it) I really really do :). Do you? — Tomica (talk) 16:35, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
I've literally only just listen to it. I like her vocals toward the end, but I don't like how she sounds when she sings "shine light like a diamond", she sounds like Ellie Goulding and I don't like her lol. Need to hear it a few more times but I don't think it's her strongest lead single. AARONTALK 16:36, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
After "Russian Roulette" this is definitely her strongest and most positive accepted lead single from the critics. And she sounds a lot like Sia, but that's the reasons because she probably sang the background vocals. I heard it like 25 times already. Lol. — Tomica (talk) 16:39, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
Because it is different and unexpected, not sure if I like it atm, need to listen it a few times more. AARONTALK 16:43, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
Weird :). I like it from the first moment I heard it. SHINEEEEEE BRIIIGHHHHHTT :) hahh (adore that part). It sounds a bit alternative, I like that... let the album be like that, pls... not TTT part 2. — Tomica (talk) 16:47, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
Yeah I thought it was a bit alternative too. As it reminded me of Ellie Goulding in how she sang it. AARONTALK 16:48, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
All in all four and half out of five. Maybe the chorus should have been a little more powerful. Still I like it. What do you think, how the video will be ? :)— Tomica (talk) 16:54, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
I don't know really, I can't picture it having a classy or sophisticated look, even though it's called Diamonds, and it sounds too alternative for it. Don't really know lol. AARONTALK 16:57, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
If you ask me, I would like to see a video with history and some good story tbh. She needs it after "You da One" and "WHYB". — Tomica (talk) 16:59, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
I loved WHYB video. AARONTALK
Yeah me too, but it was a simple dance video :). I want something different as the song here. — Tomica (talk) 17:03, 27 September 2012 (UTC)
It was more the aestheticism of it I liked. AARONTALK 17:08, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

No UK release :-(. Probably means it will be released here in late October or November to coincide with the album's release and a performance on X Factor lol. AARONTALK 10:07, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

No, she is releasing it on October 2 :D the release has been pushed forward. Just read an article on Digital Spy :) yuhuuu :D ! — Tomica (talk) 10:43, 28 September 2012 (UTC)
Ah okay. AARONTALK 11:15, 28 September 2012 (UTC)

I'm listening to it atm, and have done a few times. It's growing on me. AARONTALK 23:37, 2 October 2012 (UTC)

I really like it now lol. AARONTALK 13:40, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Haha. Funny, I liked it from the first moment tbh :) Can't wait for the video or a performance. I think will hit 1 in the UK this week. — Tomíca(T2ME) 13:42, 3 October 2012 (UTC)
Yeah it will. I wish she would shoot videos before she releases the song, or at least have shot a video lol. AARONTALK 13:45, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

Request

I was wondering if you could possibly vote at Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/One Direction discography/archive1. AdabowtheSecond (talk) 19:23, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

What sections have we done and what ones need doing? I can't remember lol. AARONTALK 15:06, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

Conceptions and singles I believe :) ! — Tomíca(T2ME) 17:34, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
Lol okay. Whenever you want to get back into it. AARONTALK 17:42, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
I have to study, have fucking exams in like three weeks, but I have a lot of material :@. Maybe after November 9 we can get on it. — Tomíca(T2ME) 17:43, 4 October 2012 (UTC)
Okay cool. AARONTALK 17:50, 4 October 2012 (UTC)

Edit to Diamonds

The removal of the year in the article's lead section was about consistency, like the example at MOS:DATEUNIFY, and the statement just above that section saying that yearless dates are acceptable if "the year is obvious from the context." It was also suggested to me in a GA review once. No problem though if the context isnt there for this article in this case. Dan56 (talk) 16:40, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

Hi Dan. I was never familiar with that that the year could be excluded from the date. It's more logical to have it with the month and day. Well, I guess you are aloud to remove it. Thanks for explaining. — Tomíca(T2ME) 16:45, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
BTW, since Rihanna is Barbadian, should the date format be DMY instead of MDY? Barbados looks to use the former (Date format by country), and I noticed the same goes for British-associated articles. Dan56 (talk) 17:00, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
I am not sure. Think that was raised before, but I think it was agreed that US is her biggest market, so MDY should be used. — Tomíca(T2ME) 17:08, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

List of Rihanna songs

Can you sort out whatever User:Aaausa is doing please? AARONTALK 18:56, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

Totally WP:CRYSTAL... 2003? Rihanna didn't have a career back then. I reverted and identified as vandalism. — Tomíca(T2ME) 19:43, 6 October 2012 (UTC)
Haha. He was making edits for ages. AARONTALK 19:45, 6 October 2012 (UTC)

"date" parameter in singlechart

The "date" parameter isn't used in most singlechart calls. It is used for the UK charts, and the format does matter. Click the link for reference 49 in your version and compare it to the same reference in my version. Very different, no?—Kww(talk) 22:50, 7 October 2012 (UTC)

When I adjusted the accessdates, I removed dates from the UK and Scotland it showed me that I need the dates, so I added the current one. Sorry, I didn't have idea this would happen. Thanks for explaining. — Tomíca(T2ME) 07:36, 8 October 2012 (UTC)

FAC comment
