Where are you obtaining physical copies of Billboard Brasil to use as a reference? I haven't found a way to get a foreign subscription.—Kww(talk) 15:01, 5 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
The magazine is only available via physical copy for brazilianz in Rio de Janeiro, Sao Paulo, Brasilia and some other cities as Recife. it is not available for foreign subscription as i've been informed. Shall we delete all the positions until we find a solution to this? Another topic: The Albumchart and Singlechart categories have been proposed for deletion, the category's entry is here, so please check it out and comment, if you can. Thanks Kww. --Hahc21[TALK][CONTRIBS]16:45, 5 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Someone deleted those charts without a proper rationale for it. If somebody wrote them a long time ago it was because they exist. If he gave a proper rationale for it, then i wouldn't reverted his edit. We cannot remove info that way unless it is obvious the content is false or misleading, i think. However, i ask you, as i cannot take actions by myself alone, about what we must do with the Billboard Brasil charts, since they do not appear on the Bazilian Billboard's website. --Hahc21[TALK][CONTRIBS]16:56, 5 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
A reference to the physical magazine meets WP:V. There's no requirement that sources be verifiable online. I don't like it, but I can't see a way to remove the chart based on existing policies.—Kww(talk) 17:01, 5 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Me neither, so that's why I restored the charts on "Roumor Has It". Of course, the positions can be fixed since they're not verifiable online, and that's my concern. --Hahc21[TALK][CONTRIBS]17:03, 5 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
In 1982, Bobby Bland charted on the Hot Country Songs with a song called "Here We Go Again". Also, Billboard lacks the traklist for Turned Loose, so, for them, Clark's version never existed: [1]
It is very difficult to find such information unless the song itself was a big part for both the movie or the accompanying soundtrack with it. Otherwise it'll be hard to find on which films it has been used, since they could be only one to 100s. --Hahc21[TALK][CONTRIBS]03:18, 6 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
What i mean is that a single song can be featured on 1 film, or 100. Even in many languages other than english, so it quite a work to track them. The first we could do is to write on Google "fimls using X song" and maybe we could have a lead. I've done it in the past to locate two songs played on Tron: Legacy that wasn't on the soundtrack (they were, effectively, "Sweet Dreams" by Eurythmics and other i don't remember), and i spent 30 minutes (searching on a single film). --Hahc21[TALK][CONTRIBS]06:18, 6 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Based on the inbound links that I disambiguated, it doesn't appear obvious. We may disagree about the target of God Of War, but calling it vandalism seems a little disingenuous. Why does it redirect to a different page than God of War? That capital O can't be that important. That said, I don't really care. I've given it more thought than it deserves.

Hi Hahc21! This may seem like a dumb question but I'm going to ask it anyway ^^ : how do people get the GA stick that says "This user helped promote the article X to good article status" on their user page? I mean is it only attributed to people that nominated the article or can it also be given to people that made many significant contributions to the article prior its nomination? --Sofffie7 (talk) 14:00, 6 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Both can have it. If you nominated the article or made significant contributions on it prior or during the nomination process, you can proudly add to your userpage the GA stick =). --Hahc21[TALK][CONTRIBS]16:18, 6 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi Hahc21, just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled right to your account, as you have created numerous, valid articles. This feature will have no effect on your editing, and is simply intended to reduce the workload on new page patrollers. For more information on the patroller right, see Wikipedia:Autopatrolled. Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! Mifter (talk) 00:35, 7 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hi! Congrats on getting Autopatrolled! If you have at least 50 vandalism reverts then apply. If not, wait until you get 50. Be sure to word your request by telling the sysop that you can differenciate between good faith edits and vandalism. This is the most important part of your request. Thank you!

Bummer--my first attempt at a review, and I can't let it pass. As far as I can figure it, the article, whose inception dates back to 2008, hasn't been expanded fivefold within the past few days as required.
As noted, this is my first attempt at review; I'm undertaking it, reluctantly, because of the new (to me, anyhow) requirement that those who submit DYK nominations for their own articles must also review others' submissions. You might want to get a second opinion from someone more experienced. Very sorry to be the bearer of bad news. Drhoehl (talk) 02:41, 8 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Congratulaions on getting Rollback! TParis also the one who gave me rollback, and is helping me with my RFA. In terms of STiki, I have the same problem 1 of the computers in my house.

I always work on something. I use my sandbox to prepare articles to FA of GA or work on them on the main namespace. And, since i have time now and can spend 3 to 4 hours daily to WP, i can make a lot of edits in 1 day (ussualy between 100-250). Maybe, i don't know; i'll wait until i'm more confident and familiar with all Wikipedia policies before going to RFA, but thanks =). Don't forget to advise me when your RFA begins.

CVU Academy Graduate
Given that an Administrator has recently approved you for the Rollback Flag, it is the decision of the community that you have learned enough about Identifying, Restoring, Warning, and Reporting to be trusted with a new tool. As such, let me be the first to congratulate you for graduating from the Counter-Vandalism Unit Academy. Your instructor and the whole Academy will still be around if you have any questions.

Hello,
I am on the management team for the Rej3ctz, the creators of the "Cat Daddy". We were wondering if you would be willing to create a Wikipedia Entry for the Rej3ctz since you did such a wonderful job with the "Cat Daddy" entry. We would be able to provide you with sources, a bio as framework, and any other assistance needed. We just can't do it ourselves since we have a material interest in the group.

Do you think you could find some reviews for the song, and put them in the article? I honestly cannot find anymore, and I'm sure there has to be some reviews in Spanish of the song. Statυs (talk) 15:34, 12 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

According to this tidbit from one of my as-yet unidentified edit summaries (translated from Spanish):
"Party in the U.S.A." has sold 4.506 million copies in the U.S., 0.32 million in Canada, 0.14 million in Australia, and 0.015 in New Zealand. The total sum is 4.98, which was rounded to 5.00 to account for sales in other countries.
Given that the above is supported by the song's certifications and this link, I was wondering where you got the 5.56 million you added to the worldwide singles list.
Oops, seems like i got trolled. The article said 5x Platinum for the US. Now, look at this: [6] from Billboard. it says PITUSA has 4.9 million. That's where i got the numbers. —Hahc21[TALK][CONTRIBS]00:43, 16 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

I'm back! Missed me? :P Anyways, there some stuff I'd talk about it. I'm kind of tired (I just got back today) so I'll start with the big stuff. First, let's start off with the charts. Let's begin with Chile. Before I saw your FLC nomination of Ricardo Arjonay discography, I thought of looking for the provider of the charts (APF), which I am doing right now. I want to know who they are, how they compile their albums, and if they're still (hopefully) operating to this day. The other is the Dominican Republic. You might have saw on the Monitor Latino article that they started publishing singles for the Dominican Republic, but only subscribers can only view it which is a shame, but I do hope they post it at RadioNotas sometime. Anyways, besides that, there's the task force itself. It's been two years since I started it, but the guidelines on it are just basic guidelines. I've added some proposed guidelines on the talk page for the task force talk page. That covers it for now, but I'll some more talk about later. EDIT: Oh and, congrats on getting your first DYK! Erick (talk) 23:29, 16 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

English songs with a remix on which a spanish language artist is featured? I think it may be the only one you've left behind. —Hahc2101:21, 19 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
You mean like a remix with a Spanish-language performing in Spanish? I don't know about that, I mean it wouldn't seem right to include articles like When I Look at You and Hate That I Love You because the Spanglish version is not really covered nor did it chart. If it did chart, I might put it, but I'm really cautious about tagging the task force on song articles not really targeted towards the Hispanophone audience. I really need your opinion on artists who are not from Latin America on whether we should include them or not. For example Irreplaceable by Beyoncé had a Spanish version that charted on the Hot Latin Songs chart, but I don't know about it including it there. Beautiful Liar also has a Spanish version, but it features Shakira so I'm fine with that and it's included. How about artists that performs in Spanish but not from a Latin America country? Like Laura Pausini, Tiziano Ferro, and Il Volo? Pausini records an album in Italian and makes a Spanish-language version of it, Ferro performs some of his original songs in Spanish (he even had a #1 Latin Song single), and Volo's eponymous album had a Spanish edition album and they received a Latin Grammy nonimation for Best New Artist. And what about singers from Spain? I know it may seem to strange to ask, but technically Spain isn't part of Latin America, but you have singers like Alejandro Sanz and Enrique Iglesias who perform Latin pop songs, so I think those are fine, but I'm not sure about the rest. Erick (talk) 01:48, 19 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Well, I think Irreplaceable should be tagged. Beyoncé is an artist commited to latin music. He sang a spanish version of "If I Were a Boy" and "Listen". When I Look at You and Hate That I Love You are mere coincidences targeted mostly to Spain. Laura Pausini, Tiziano Ferro needs to be included. Pausini and Ferro are well-known successful artists on Latin america and they're part of this culture. Il Volo may be too new yet to be considered inside that scope. I think that the deffinition of Latin music is "All music styles performed in languages derived from Latin." It doesn't stablish limits of countries. Many people make the mistake as to think that latin music needs to be performed by a Latin american act to be considered as that, but that's not true. —Hahc2102:00, 19 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
That's a valid point and I really agree your definition of Latin music. Psst, btw, I think you meant to say "She sang. :P. Erick (talk) 02:20, 19 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

I saw J-Lo in concert once doing her tour with Marc Anthony in 2007. I actually thought those cities myself, but my mom doesn't want to go to those places so I want to go there myself. I also have been wanting to visit the rest of Latin America. Erick (talk) 02:57, 19 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Erick (talk) 01:35, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
I'll see what I find. As of now, i was checking {{albumchart}} (which i mantain) and it only contains (now) two Latin charts: Argentina and Mexico . I wish there were more. Oh, and a curious date: We have more latin singles charts than albums charts. —Hahc2101:39, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
You forgot Brazil. :P Oh and talk about a two in one: This article mentions a song being #1 in Argentina and Chile. I get these searches by typing in Spanish words with quotations like "uno en <insert country here>" on Google news archive. I don't know how to say like "reached #1" in Spanish though. Erick (talk) 01:43, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Haha Brazil! right, i forgot Brazil. For an unknown reason i didn't saw it. :P Usually, we say "canción número uno" in spanish for what in english would be "number-one song". The word "reached" is not used in spanish for songs (with exceptions, of course). —Hahc2101:49, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Found nothing on Argentina singles chart, but I did find this. It posts a singles chart for the Americas like Chile and Costa Rica. Best part is that it posts the source for these information which I will look into. Maybe it's because I'm a bit drunk (I had a few shots of tequila a while back), but this is fun! And it's a good thing we now know how to make a chart notable. Erick (talk) 01:56, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Very unlikely. Both of those charts were never referenced by the news media and they had dubious methodology. Also Los 40 Principales is a single network site (like a single radio station) and cannot be used which is why it's on BADCHARTS. Rather, I think the charts posted from different companies that we have never heard of before. That's how I found about National-Report for Colombia. Take Chile for example, this article shows different charts for Latin America is shows the name of the source (Revista TV Grama is listed as the source) that it gets it from. Now look at the #1 single for each chart and search for it on the news archive. Type LLamda de emergencia Daddy Yankee Chile on Google news archive and I got sources going on how it reached #1 in Chile. I think I might I have just hit the jackpot here! =D Erick (talk) 02:14, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Looking at the list again there are already charts we can't use. El Salvador and Costa Rica are already out of the picture because of single network, we already have Colombia and Mexico, the Argentina charts are for albums. The only possibilities are Chile, Guatemala, Honduras, Nicaragua, and Panama. Even then, it's unknown if those sources are also a single network. =\ Erick (talk) 02:48, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Yeah :/ Latin countries have the bad habit of using single network data. I think Chile is the only one left to be included. —Hahc2102:51, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Nope, all single network charts, either using a radio station or Los 40 Principales. Well that was a waste of time. =\ But I'm a persistent so I'll keeping looking. Erick (talk) 03:04, 21 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Feel free to make any edits to it. Erick (talk) 15:58, 22 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
It's not bad, but you still have some things to learn. Well, i think some tags are unnecessary, but there are three steps to write an article on Wikipedia:
Seems like the step No.2 was avoided. And No.3 partially. When you create an article, you have to be sure that the topic is exposed on a neutral way. "The school prides itself on having a low student to teacher ratio." looks like an advertisement, yes, but mainly because you used the word "prides itself", which may qualify as a word to watch, and you didn't added a source for that claim. Read this: WP:CHALLENGE. —Hahc2120:27, 17 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Yes but usually those claims are only well supported if you provide a third-party source. First-party sources usually lack a neutral point of view because they want to make people know or believe they are the best. —Hahc2121:36, 17 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
That's a very good way to learn the content creation process. Since i'm not native in English and by unknown reasons my writing seems to get awful sometimes, i don't make copyedits to articles. Anyway, its a good idea of yours to copyedit articles. On another topic; i'm not receiving too much feedback from y editor review. I've only identified one problem of mine: I have some conflicts with the Deletion policy. —Hahc2123:14, 17 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Mine hasn't been so productive either. I got concerns about my first AFD (which I have corrected), and a complement because I removed a spam link. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 23:18, 17 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
By the way, I've lowered my automated edits % down to about 60%. Also, even for reviewing AFC's, I use an automated script, which doesn't help the numbers. When I was approved for AWB this morning, the reviewing admin suggested that I lower my automated edits percent. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 23:24, 17 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Yes, it is recommended. In the last few days, my automated edits percentage went from 16% to 18% and i'm alarmed. I consider that less than 20% is desirable. HAve you added the sources already? —Hahc2123:40, 17 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
I would like to lower it down to about 50-40%. I do more anti-vandalism work than you, so I need the automated tools. I've added some sources, but I'm not done yet. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 23:59, 17 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Yeah, you make a lot more anti-V than me. Hehe. I'm commited to content creation and some maintenance duties. I mostly use the automated tools to correct grammatical errors with AWB or to make changes on a highly visible template. —Hahc2100:04, 18 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
The checkmark means that a reviewer verified the article you reviewed for quality purposes. Also, it means that it was checked to see if it meets the eligibility period, to verify it wasn't a quick-fail, passed /failed to make a point, etc. —Hahc2102:22, 18 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
I think there is something up with me today. Not literally under the influence of anything (of course), I've just been having a mixed up today. Wait, I just realized, I only got four hours of sleep last night... Yeah, that could be the problem. I am so embarrassed. Statυs (talk) 02:35, 18 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Do you think you could give me some feedback on my reviews? I was looking at others, and mine aren't really in the best form. Statυs (talk) 02:36, 18 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Pleasure to help you. Remember that the GA criteria is very slight and almost any article can reach GA status. I understand sometimes we get into some kind of internal battle with ourselves about the GA process, i live it with The Great Otis Redding Sings Soul Ballads and because of that, my review lasted for an astonishing 45 days. I've yet to watch one of your reviews thoroughly to make constructive comments. Let me check 2 or 3 of your reviews and then i give you my feedback. And, by the way, I just needed to say this but I'm still dumbed my J.Lo's concert :S. I feels weird. It was my first concert ever and I love her and and and..... (lost connection) haha XD Now I can rest in peace >.<. I really hope you can be able to go to her concert. —Hahc2102:42, 18 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Haha, yeah; I know exactly what you mean. Haha, aww your first concert! What a great feat to go to then! My first concert was when seeing the winner and runner-up of Canadian Idol in 2005; both of which have done nothing since and are nobodies now. I really I could be able to go as well. Statυs (talk) 02:48, 18 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Maybe. It happened to me. Then i learned. How? I did this: I took Wikipedia:What the Good article criteria are not and Wikipedia:Reviewing good articles, printed both and went to my bed. I read them about 10 times far from the PC and thought about the for about two weeks in which i didn't reviewed a single article. Then, i started watching articles and philosophically comparing them to nature. Not all trees are exactly the same, yet they are perfect. That's the way I understood the criteria; and it changed the way I looked ad the process. —Hahc2103:00, 18 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Sounds like a good idea. I believe my second attempt at "Eight Miles High" has gotten rid of the "it should be this way, the way I do" (so far). Statυs (talk) 03:07, 18 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Sorry for the harsh comment at GAN which I immediately removed. You are doing a great work on GAN and my comment was not intended to be literally, but rather totally different things caused this remark. Also thanks for your review of Sings Soul Ballads; I am sometimes very impatient so I also apologize for this. Regards. GoPTCN11:27, 18 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Do you know how much work is required until the song is passed? I'm just asking because I don't want to start work on getting other songs to GA without first having that one completed LOL.--(CA)Giacobbe (talk) 21:10, 18 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
I hope to get it ready this week. Maybe tomorrow night or wednesday afternoon, since i'm still in college. —Hahc2100:39, 19 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Wow! I didn't saw this message! Let's start. We'll go slow on the coaching until July 5, because i'm still on college. No.1: Content creation. You and I will create an article together. So please chose a topic without an article on WP and we'll develop the article about it. . —Hahc2121:06, 20 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Haha amazing! Well, i took care of 11 of those 40. Now i'm working on The X-Files episodes. My count is at 12 on the drive ^^ and i'm aiming to 25. i'd like to be the No.1 haha —Hahc2103:57, 20 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Haha, yeah, I'd say so. Great job! I'd be lying if I told you I was focusing on music articles so there will be little/none left when I go to nominate my J.Lo articles. ;) Statυs (talk) 04:07, 20 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Haha XD When that happens, give me a shot so you don't have to wait for the next drive to get them reviewed. Lol. —Hahc2104:18, 20 June 2012 (UTC)Reply

Hello, Razr Nation. You have new messages at Talk:Birthday Cake (song)/GA1. Message added 16:16, 20 June 2012 (UTC). You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
How about an article about manual defibrillators? There is an article on AED's, but there is only a section in the article about defibrillators that talks about manual defibs, and there is a lot to write about them. Electriccatfish2 (talk) 22:50, 20 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Good!. Now that you got the topic, the next step is finding sources. Find sources on the internet (or books, Google Books may work either) and post them here to start working. —Hahc2122:57, 20 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
What "type" of sources do you want? Places that sell them, how to use them, or about them.
We need sources that documents how to use them, how they are manufactured, which types of defibs exists, the history of the defibs, and stuff like that. —Hahc2123:11, 20 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
Yeas. Sorry for the late answer. Too many messages on my TP i overlooked some of them. Well, yes:; the first step is to add the sources to the sandbox, and then, writing the information that is useful from that source. —Hahc2121:01, 22 June 2012 (UTC)Reply
