Aloha
Jennica, please do not remove okina and kahako from words of the Hawaiian language as you did on Hoku. The word Oahu, is actually Oʻahu. The upside apostaphe, aka 'okina', is supposed to be there. If you continue to remove such dictoral markings from words of the Hawaiian language, you will be reported to the administrinators and a request will be submitted to block you making changes. Mahalo ā nui loa i kou kōkua! -- Kanaka maoli i puuwai 19:54, 15 April 2007 (UTC) Feel free to discuss this with me on my talk page
No problem. If it was not intentional, then you have nothing to worry about. Aloha! Kanaka maoli i puuwai 00:17, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

License tagging for Image:3462247303.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:3462247303.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.
For more information on using images, see the following pages:
This is an automated notice by OrphanBot. If you need help on selecting a tag to use, or in adding the tag to the image description, feel free to post a message at Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. 00:04, 21 April 2006 (UTC)
Edit summary
Hi Jennn and thanks for your contributions. Please try to use an edit summary as much as you can; it helps other people to understand what you're doing. I almost reverted your recent Paris Hilton edit because I initially thought you were just deleting content instead of moving it. -SpuriousQ 22:49, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for trying to fix the vandalism. I've reverted the page back to Jan 30 to get rid of some you didn't spot. It is easier just to use the history and go back to the last good page, than to try to unpick it all. Cheers, Colin°Talk 17:28, 9 February 2007 (UTC)

Hi, you recently changed the spelling of 'programme' to the American word 'program'. As the article is about an English based website, I have changed it back. (see the remarks on English usage in Program (management)Jud 22:27, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

Hey Jennica. Recently, I had seen a similar tracklist and deleted it, and then I saw an obviously ridiculous and false track list that I again deleted. Then I went to UNDENTED.COM, which is a site I trust, and they confirmed this track list, though they didn't list their "reliable source." Laikalynx 03:57, 10 March 2007 (UTC)
So how about I put it back? THX Laikalynx 04:17, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

Your edits to Harry Potter
Hi, I saw that you are replacing the citation templates such as {{cite web}} and {{cite news}} with direct URLs. May I ask why? --Kimontalk 15:42, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
- Actually, it was only a single reference that was screwing everything up. See this where reference #49 does not have its template properly closed. --Kimontalk 18:28, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
Oops
My mistake, I thought you were putting that all-caps stuff in the text. I see it was a reference title. Sorry! NawlinWiki 00:43, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
Regarding edits to Carnage (comics)
Thank you for contributing to Wikipedia, Jennica! However, your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove spam from Wikipedia. If you were trying to insert a good link, please accept my creator's apologies, but note that the link you added, matching rule \bmembers\.aol\.com\/.+, is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. Please read Wikipedia's external links guidelines for more information, and consult my list of frequently-reverted sites. For more information about me, see my FAQ page. Thanks! Shadowbot 20:47, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
Please stop adding inappropriate links to Wikipedia. It is considered spamming and will be removed. Thanks. Shadowbot 20:51, 12 May 2007 (UTC)
Auckland
Hello Jennica. I had to revert the reference you gave for immigration to Auckland, because you used a copy of the very same Wikipedia article mirrorred on another site. Even said so at the bottom of said webpage. Obviously, your edit was in good faith, and I certainly know its pretty frustrating sometimes when a Google search in the first 10 links turns up 5 out of 10 Wikipedia copies... but please pay attention to this in the future. Happy editing, MadMaxDog 05:07, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
- Responded on my page to your response there. MadMaxDog 15:25, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
Tupac Shakur edits
I noticed you made edits to correct the citations in the Tupac Shakur article. Before you do too many, you might want to look back in the history. There are older versions of the article that have nearly all of the references properly cited using {{cite}} tags already. Those references were also reviewed for accuracy and expanded to include complete information (like ISBN's, publishers, etc.) The versions with {{cite}} tags were rolled back by another user, however. I'd hate to see you waste your time re-doing a bunch of work that already exists in the history for the article. The lack of proper {{cite}} tags in the current version was one of the many reasons that reviewers recently voted to remove Tupac Shakur from Good Article status. Good luck! SqlPac 04:20, 28 May 2007 (UTC)
- This is a response to your response on my talk page: I know you were just fixing citations, but I just wanted to point out to you that it's already been done (it's in the history for the article). If you wanted to save yourself some time and effort, you could copy and paste the {{cite}} tags from the older version of the article (it's from maybe a month or so ago), which contains complete and verified references in proper cite tags. Just a suggestion :) Thanks. SqlPac 04:27, 28 May 2007 (UTC)

Advice needed
I know you've edited the Edgar Allan Poe page a few times. I was wondering if you have an opinion on a new template / author navigation box. The original is clean and simple, the new version is a bit clunky and possibly larger than it needs to be. Feel free to respond on my talk page or on the EAP talk page.

Sides in album track listings
Hey there. Regarding this change, please note that WP:ALBUM#Track listings recommends such subheadings in cases like this. I've reverted the change. Have a nice day. --PEJL 17:00, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
- You mean like <!-- Don't change this -->? We'd have to have such comments all over every article, to stop all potential errors people make. And even then people would likely ignore them. So I don't think that is a solution to this problem. --PEJL 18:57, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
- Sure. We do have one comment at the top of the infobox on most album articles, to WP:ALBUM. Hopefully people will read that. Have a nice day. --PEJL 21:07, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
Professional album review ratings
Hi again. Regarding this change, please note that WP:ALBUM#Professional reviews says not to use star ratings for reviews that don't use stars. I've reverted this change. --PEJL 17:31, 9 June 2007 (UTC)
- I saw you just made this change. I've reverted this change because of this guideline. Have a nice day. --PEJL 15:15, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
- I just happen to be watching the pages you edit. I have a lot of pages on my watchlist. Cya. --PEJL 21:04, 17 June 2007 (UTC)
- Oh, and also note that I reverted this change of yours from yesterday, since dates are preferred over the text "link", also per WP:ALBUM#Professional reviews. I'll stop bothering you now. :-) --PEJL 17:36, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image (Image:House dvd33 png.png)
Thanks for uploading Image:House dvd33 png.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image 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 images 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 'image' 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 "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BetacommandBot 02:43, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi, thank you for your interest in Disappearance of Madeleine McCann. However, I have reverted your change to the reference list.

If you wish it to be changed please raise it on the talk page, with your arguments, rather than making unilateral alterations. Thanks. TerriersFan 18:29, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
Birth Dates in Harry Potter character articles
I'm sorry if this comes across as harsh, but if you had bothered to look through the recent history of the articles you modified, you would have seen that it is against Wiki manual of style and policy to use a birth date of a fictional character as if that character was really born. Thanks for your conscientious efforts, but I have had to revert them. Ccrashh 11:53, 13 July 2007 (UTC)

Seinfeld WikiProject Invite
Hey there. I couldn't help noticing you appear to be interested in Seinfeld. I am interested in setting up a Seinfeld WikiProject to improve articles related to Seinfeld. At the moment I am just looking for people who are interested in joining. If you are interested in joining, please add your name here or contact me on my talk page. Thankyou, Joelster 06:21, 29 October 2007 (UTC)
- Thankyou for expressing your interest in the Seinfeld WikiProject. Just so you know, the project has been set up and can be found here. You are welcome, but not obligated, to join anytime. Thankyou, Joelster 22:33, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
Madonna's forthcoming album
Hi Jennica - thanks for your interest in the article on Madonna's forthcoming studio album. Unfortunately, as you will know, fansites and blogs are generally not sufficient sources for information to be included in Wikipedia. While there will always be speculation and a degree of uncertainty about future events, where such websites do not explain the source of the information they carry, reliance of such information for Wikipedia should be kept at a minimum. The current article on the album already includes reference to some of the info recently circulating, such as suggested album title, but it is far too speculative to include that as a name in the info box, and certainly not sufficient to rename the article itself. If unsure on future changes, you should check the WP guidelines on Wikipedia:verifiability and discuss any significant issues on the article talk page. Thanks.

NIN WikiProject
I'd like to invite you to join the newly-formed Nine Inch Nails WikiProject. There's alot of NIN-related articles on Wikipedia that could use a little attention, and I hope this project can help organize an effort to improve them. So please, take a look and if you like what you see, help us get this project off the ground and a few Nine Inch Nails pages into the front ranks of Wikipedia articles. Thanks!

Hey Jennica. I came to see if you are still interested on working on this project.

Hello Jennica, I noticed you revert vandalsm occasionally. Would you like me to grant your account rollback rights to help you revert vandalism more easily? Acalamari 16:42, 15 April 2008 (UTC)

Rachel McAdams
Thanks for uploading the scan about her birthdate. Please note, however, that the image page has incomplete copyright info. It will eventually be deleted if this is not corrected. At that point the citation in the article will be a dead link, meaning that we're back to square one. Thanks. Ward3001 (talk) 04:02, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:Teresatayloo.jpg
Thanks for uploading Image:Teresatayloo.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check
- That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
- That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Speedy deletion of Trent Vanegas
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Trent Vanegas requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for web content.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that a copy be emailed to you. 16x9 (talk) 02:21, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Please give some support
Dear Jennica,
I've seen you edited an article I wrote a while ago on Eastwoodhill Arboretum. That was of great help. I'm a native Dutchman, and my fluency in English is not too good. May I ask you to have a look at some other articles as well. Especially Bob Berry (dendrologist), that does not seem to meet some standards. I think it is an important person here in the Gisborne region of New Zealand in the specialized field of trees. I tried my best on it. But I'm perhaps a bit too involved to have a proper look. So please, feel free to edit it as rigorous as possible. Thanx in advance.

Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 05:42, 20 June 2010 (UTC)

Survey
Hi Jennica!
I have put together a survey for female editors of Wikipedia (and related projects) in order to explore, in greater detail, women's experiences and roles within the Wikimedia movement. It'd be wonderful if you could participate!
It's an independent survey, done by me, as a fellow volunteer Wikimedian. It is not being done on behalf of the Wikimedia Foundation. I hope you'll participate!
Just click this link to participate in this survey, via Google!
Any questions or concerns, feel free to email me or stop by my user talk page. Also, feel free to share this any other female Wikimedians you may know. It is in English, but any language Wikimedia participants are encouraged to participate. I appreciate your contributions - to the survey and to Wikipedia! Thank you!

Hi. When you recently edited The Singles (Bikini Kill album), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Rebel Girl (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver).

Hi Jennica, just wanted to inform that we should not list more than 10 reviews in the template box. We can include as many as we want in the prose of the section. "Include no more than ten reviews in table form. When choosing which reviews to include, consider the notability of the review source and keeping a neutral point of view. For older albums, try to include not just contemporary but also some more recent reviews.". —IB [ Poke ] 05:27, 25 October 2016 (UTC)

Please do not add or change content, as you did at A-Yo (Lady Gaga song), without citing a reliable source. Please review the guidelines at Wikipedia:Citing sources and take this opportunity to add references to the article. Until and unless a reliable source confirms (here reliable being the radio braodcaster like All Access or FMQB). A primary source is not considered a reliable one in this case. —IB [ Poke ] 10:15, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

- Ok Tina @Swancat: - I took a screenshot for you: http://i.imgur.com/58AN3dE.png -- When you click "Cite", it shows the "Templates" button. If you click that it has a dropdown menu with "Cite web" on it. There you can paste the URL which I always do first, then click the magnifying button and it will auto fill the title and the author. I always name my references in case someone wants to use it again in the article but not with the full code. Hope this helps! --Jennica✿ Talk 21:12, 27 October 2016 (UTC)

- I tried adding in a reference on the article and I find add a reference is difficult for me. Can you tell me how I didn't do it right this time? Swancat (talk) 02:11, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
- Sure. Like I said above -- click the "Cite" button on this toolbar and then click "Templates", then "Cite Web". Paste the URL in the URL field, then click the magnifying glass. It will fill the important details. In the ref name box just name it something like "heavy" [something in relation to the article or site]. Hopefully this will help. If you don't see this toolbar, I'll walk you through how to get that as well. And you can always practice in your Sandbox [in the top right of this page]--Jennica✿ Talk 02:19, 28 October 2016 (UTC)
RfC: I Am... Sasha Fierce
Hi. Would you mind weighing in on this RfC? It concerns whether or not a certain sentence should be (or should have been) removed: "I Am... Sasha Fierce received generally mediocre reviews from critics." Dan56 (talk) 03:20, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Pseudo headings
Hi, I noticed in this edit to Greetings from Asbury Park, N.J. you replaced the level-3 headings with pseudo headings using semicolons in the personnel section. This should be avoided as it can cause accessibility issues on screen readers and the like (WP:BADHEAD/WP:PSEUDOHEAD). Dan56 (talk) 22:44, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Dan56: Oh ok. So I would just make them bolded instead? Sorry about that. --Jennica✿ Talk 22:52, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- Yes, with the equal signs; it was fine before. Dan56 (talk) 22:57, 26 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Dan56: Is it in the rules/guidelines that the individual entities of Personnel be under subheaders? It's kind of strange to me. Edit: I guess it is: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Album_article_style_guide#Personnel
- @Dan56: ok, so on Joanne for instance, everything under Personnel would have four equal signs? I want to make sure before I change. Also I will go back and edit my previous pages. On the PSUEDOHEAD article you linked, it says I can use bold instead of the semicolon. It seems less gaudy than having everything be a subheader. I also improved on the Tracks and Live 1975-85 track listings today. --Jennica✿ Talk 23:16, 26 October 2016 (UTC)

Reception I prefer a second-level ==Reception==
section that has a third-level ===Critical reception===
, ===Sales===
, and ===Legacy===
, as necessary. That's how the album was received--not just by critics but also the music-consuming public and by successive generations of musicians. I wouldn't revert someone (especially since "Reception" sections are usually just about critical reception) but I definitely have a preference on the matter. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 03:16, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
- @Koavf: oh shoot then. I've edited a lot of them just to be "Critical reception" as its own header, then commercial performance as its own header, and legacy as their own. Argh! I wish there was a definite template to follow. --Jennica✿ Talk 03:24, 29 October 2016 (UTC)
- Template On the one hand, that would be nice but on the other hand, each article will be a little different than others and readers will still be able to find the relevant information.

Non-free image resolution
You have uploaded a large number of replacement album covers of much higher resolution. These image covers exceed the acceptable sizing for non-free images and have been reverted.

Use of deprecated reflist|2 form
Just happened to notice a few of your edits on my watchlist where you changed the reflist on an article to hard-code 2 columns using reflist|2 (here: [1] [2] [3]). Are you aware this has been specifically deprecated for a while? It's much preferable to use the reflist|30em form which causes it to adapt the number of columns to the width of the browser (and which you actually removed in this edit, this one and this one). Here's the documentation on reflist which explains this issue. --Krelnik (talk) 18:15, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

License tagging for File:Photo of Jason Allen.jpeg
Thanks for uploading File:Photo of Jason Allen.jpeg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of image copyright tags to indicate this information.
To add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from this list, click on this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia. For help in choosing the correct tag, or for any other questions, leave a message on Wikipedia:Media copyright questions. Thank you for your cooperation. --ImageTaggingBot (talk) 03:31, 13 November 2016 (UTC)

From the page histories & your edit history it looks like Louisiana Rock & Roll was created as a split from Potliquor? Please give credit to the authors by using the {{Copied}} template. Cabayi (talk) 11:33, 14 November 2016 (UTC)

- Looks good. A copy of the notice should go on the group's talk page too because that's where the history is. Deleting the group's article would leave the albums without their history (even though it's highly unlikely that the albums would be kept if the group were to be deleted).

Cultural references
I see this search has grown slightly since your post at WT:AWB. What criteria are you using to determine whether or not a page should have this changed? Perhaps I can help. ~ Tom.Reding (talk ⋅dgaf) 12:10, 18 November 2016 (UTC)
- @Tom.Reding: - well after that discussion with you [It took me 4 hours to get the list compiled. I had a friend help me with a javascript macro], I started editing pages that seemed to me that they needed changing to "In popular culture", which I thought was the correct term for it. I probably edited over well over 200 pages. I struck a nerve with an admin and I guess I opened some kind of can of worms, which lead to this discussion and this one --- so I've sort of put that aside for now. I've been compiling some lists to work on. Maybe change some tables with AWB.. I'm now going through re-doing "Personnel" sections on album pages. Most of them I come across are incorrectly formatted. Sorry this is such a novel! heh. PS. If anything that list would have shrunk. I was replacing [when necessary] them with "In popular culture". --Jennica✿ talk / contribs 12:28, 18 November 2016 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Photo of Jason Allen.jpeg
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/32px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
Thanks for uploading File:Photo of Jason Allen.jpeg. I noticed that this file is being used under a claim of fair use. However, I think that the way it is being used fails the first non-free content criterion. This criterion states that files used under claims of fair use may have no free equivalent; in other words, if the file could be adequately covered by a freely-licensed file or by text alone, then it may not be used on Wikipedia. If you believe this file is not replaceable, please:
- Go to the file description page and add the text
{{di-replaceable fair use disputed|<your reason>}}
below the original replaceable fair use template, replacing<your reason>
with a short explanation of why the file is not replaceable. - On the file discussion page, write a full explanation of why you believe the file is not replaceable.
Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).
If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Majora (talk) 07:00, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

- Sorry. Our fair use policy is rather strict. Photographs of living people cannot generally be placed under fair use as it is conceivable that a free use alternative exists or could be created. That last part is the most important part. Since the person is living, all someone would have to do is find them and take a photo. --Majora (talk) 07:10, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

Response to my modification
Hi Jennica, could you be more specific on the reasons why you thought my edit was not constructive enough? Listing a series of commercial products and giving a table so as to benchmark them is supposed to help people make their decision in choosing a Reference Management Software. Therefore, just indicating "Third party" is, in my humble opinion, not enough. I think it is good to inform on the actual options that one has when choosing this kind of software. In the case of Papers, where there are only two options on Android so far, why not mention them all? Thanks for your time proofreading Wikipedia anyways.

Undid your undo (RLSH Article)
Hi!
I undid your revision to the RLSH wiki page, as even though you may have personally felt that the page was better without the addition of that person, I don't believe it was removed for a valid reason. The "China Redbud Woman", is quite well known on the internet and in China. She's a welcome part to the RLSH page and community, especially for being female and operating within a communist based country, that would normally disallow some type of "heroic acts". I've added a source to credibly reference her within the addition into the article. Feel free to chat to me about this. No hard feelings. Lythinca (talk) 08:23, 25 November 2016 (UTC)

All We Know Is Falling
Is that all you have? I notice you've labeled them "comments". GA reviews are different from FACs, they are done and passed by an individual, not by a vote. Just so you know. You may need to scrutinize Revolutions per Minute a bit more too. Weird, how the process works. dannymusiceditor Speak up! 22:39, 28 November 2016 (UTC)
- @DannyMusicEditor: - Ohh, ok. It is my error then. Next time I should just fix what I think needs fixing- but i thought i'd let the user know. sorry. --Jennica✿ / talk 00:13, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
Ga reviews
Hi, Jennica
Firs of all let me thank you for taking some of your time by reviewing GA's from other people. However, I should warn you that you must do a thorough review of every section, check every link to see if it has the information provided, formation of links, expansion of sections, dubious references and so on...I have noticed I'm not the first user to warn you about this issue. Hopefully you will do it right and improve your work. Good luck, if you need any help just ping me. I can't in anyway let you pass those articles with only a few mistakes here and there. Thank you, MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 00:16, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
- @MarioSoulTruthFan: - I was made aware of this by the comment above. I didn't really know what the guidelines were, to be honest. I'll hold out out for now... I thought it was like the featured article process. I'm sorry! --Jennica✿ / talk 00:22, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
- I see honest mistake. Here you go Wikipedia:Good article criteria, Good reviews. OK, anything you need just ping me or ask for help at the GA desk.

Yes the album title is correct as above - the spelling is consistent on [and back covers and title track] but almost every reference on the web reverts to "Guardian" including (frustratingly) [ECM website reviews section]thankfully the [ECM site], Discogs, iTunes and rate your music are observant enough.

Clive Barda article. ツ
Dear Jennica,
First of all, thank you for the improvements you applied to the article on Clive Barda earlier today; it's always good to have an extra pair of eyes to review one's work, and I appreciate your taking the time.
I just wanted to let you know, out of courtesy, that I have relocated the photo of Sarah Beth Briggs to where it was before, and attempted to explain why in the edit summary. Essentially, I had initially put it where you found it so that I could complete, uninterrupted, the story about Barda's big break in the previous paragraph. When you relocated it, that paragraph became aligned with the photo, which did not make as much sense because the prose (now alongside the photo) is still talking about Barenboim but the photo is not of Barenboim.
On the other hand, having the photo where it was, alongside the next paragraph ("During the following decades, Barda has portrayed the world's leading classical musicians, ... ") makes sense because that's when Barda took that picture of Briggs.
I hope you will now be able to understand my rationale better, and I thank you once again for your time and contributions.
With kind regards;
Patrick. ツ Pdebee.(talk)(guestbook) 14:59, 29 November 2016 (UTC)
Hello
I cannot believe we have not crossed paths yet! Nice to see another editor who improves music articles as well as you do. My music tastes are rooted in the 60s so maybe we are a couple decades apart. I got some cool music recommendations of you ever want to chat about articles or just in general. Best of luck...and, I must say, I think you are very beautiful :) TheGracefulSlick (talk) 00:55, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- @TheGracefulSlick: - wow, thanks very much!!
I love music from the 60s! I like to think of myself as having an eclectic taste in music. My taste is all over the place! I will check out the recommended albums on your page :D - --Jennica✿ / talk 01:01, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- Awesome, they are all psychedelic so you might go on a little "trip", but I think you'll love those albums since you are into the 60s. I also am interested in a little bit of everything when it comes to music, including the Delta blues and hardcore punk. You actually reminded me of a badass grunge girl from the 80s! By the way, if you are ever looking for new music, I found this page User:Phaedriel/Soundtrack of Wikipedians is a really cool place to look at other editors' preferences.TheGracefulSlick (talk) 01:19, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- @TheGracefulSlick: - wow, thanks very much!!
(talk page stalker) I can kill two conversations with one stone here; I see above you were looking for advice on the GA review process - Talk:L.A. Woman/GA1 was a review I did with TheGracefulSlick a while back and it seems to have been well received. Something to mull over at any rate. We used to have mentors that would help people starting out on GA reviewing and suggest to them the sort of thing to pick up on. This year I have finally "got on the bus" and discovered https://archive.org/details/GratefulDead which has days of free music that would take me the best part of forever to listen to. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 16:53, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- @Ritchie333: - thanks! I'll look at the GA review.. and I love the Grateful Dead. They're so summery :) I get overwhelmed about how much music there is out there. I think on my last.fm page, it says I've clocked over 3000 listens of the GD, which is kind of low considering how much material they have. and btw I want to mention that the person you were editing with in The Who article was recently blocked for sockpuppetry [it looks like he was reverting your edits]. If you see any similar activity, there is an investigation page out on him. He had 2 past accounts --Jennica✿ / talk 16:56, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- In terms of Dead articles, I improved Ron "Pigpen" McKernan to GA (I do think his down-to-earth blues stuff has dated less than some of the band's work, but really it was the simplest article to get there) and I think Europe '72 will probably be next if I can cobble together a few more sources. In terms of HurluGumene, he did usually seem to be first on the ball with updating band articles like The Who (which is by far and away my most edited article on Wikipedia), just a lot of his edits were full of puffery and written from a fan's point of view that needed a good scrubbing afterwards - not particularly something I'd necessarily want to block unless there was blatant WP:IDIDNTHEARTHAT problems. (you may also be interested by User:Ritchie333/Userbox Suede) Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 17:12, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- @Ritchie333: - Europe 72 is a good one. Jack Straw alone.. one of my favs. Did you ever see the article he primarily worked on? Altan (band) - I've cleaned it up a bit since discovering it but it's still a bit of a mess. That and some Simple Minds articles. He was a fan of long subheaders for sure lol. oh well. --Jennica✿ / talk 17:16, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- "A mess" is a charitable way of describing it; I've just copyedited the lead, which had more puffery than Sean "Puffy" Combs wearing a puffer jacket and listening to Puff, the Magic Dragon while eating a bowl of Sugar Puffs. The "2015" section is ridiculous; on 7 May 2015 they did this, on 30 May 2015 they did, on 12 July 2015 they did the other, on 31 July 2015, they did this that and the other ..... I could go on but I've lost the will to live. Frankly half the article could probably benefit from a stick of dynamite. Ritchie333 (talk) (cont) 17:26, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- @Ritchie333: haha a brilliant way to describe it all. I have looked over the whole article and it just hurts my brain. They also worked on Malicorne (band) - I think my favorite turd on both pages is the timeline, which incorporates any and all Personnel that played with them over the years. it's like if we made a timeline of who played onstage with the rolling stones. It's just awful. And I'm sorry if this is mean, but I've never heard of Altan until last week and they have more details on their article than most relevant bands do! If you want a week by week play of the band, look no further! --Jennica✿ / talk 17:30, 30 November 2016 (UTC)
- I think this is the worst bit of writing I've encountered this year. I remember taking a scythe to The Snow Goose (album) as well - nice album, (even if I, and probably Martinevans123, do say myself) shame about the article. Anyway, to put a positive spin on that, it does mean there is still a lot of work to do around here, and anyone tackling that lot is on the right track.

Hi dear dude Could please tell me what's the difference between "have to" and "gonna have to"? thanks Alborzagros (talk) 11:07, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Alborzagros: - where did you see this at? are you being sarcastic or truly asking? :P 'Gonna have to' is improper grammar. "Going to have to" is correct. why? --Jennica✿ / talk 11:08, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

I have to see my mother. I am going to have to see my mother.
what are differences between them?

Discography
I see you updated the discography list on Pedro Fernandez. It looks a little busy with two rows but you are the expert. So I see you put the dates different. I was using the way many others are listed as there are no hard and fast rules. So I thought I would point out this one in case you have time to update it as well to fit your preference and the style rules. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Marc_Anthony
I will see if I can find more references and pages that need changed. Thanks. SusanneSC (talk) 15:18, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
I found this, using the dates as you did, after the title but all in one row, my issue with your changes, even though we all have opinions, is that making it two rows is not easy to read, we read from left to right so a single row in date order is preferred. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Banda_el_Recodo
SusanneSC (talk) 16:29, 7 December 2016 (UTC)
- @SusanneSC: - when I went to the Pedro page, it was 2 columns so I kept it the way it was. It is not my preference :) - the dates were corrected per MOS:DISCOGRAPHY. --Jennica✿ / talk 16:37, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

Sing Brother Sing edits
Good day Jennica. I see that you made some edits to the "Sing Brother Sing" album page. Some were made to information that I had added, some were made to previous information. I haven't been editing for very long...a little over a year. I tend to continue in the style that the article is already in. You removed capitalization on several items. I am not disagreeing, but what was the reasoning. I wish to follow-thru and make consistent edits when I can. I have seen both styles and wish to make the edits consistent. Thanks in advance for your response.Frankzappatwin (talk) 21:37, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
- @Frankzappatwin: Hello, the changes I made were per the album style guide located here: WP:MOSALBUM. Most of the things in Personnel are supposed to be lowercase. It's all laid out in the style guide :) I'm trying to go through and make pages consistent as well. --Jennica✿ / talk 21:39, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
- Jennica✿ Thanks for the information, I had only looked at the earlier section regarding capitalization. I will edit any other articles (mine or otherwise) that I come across to help to maintain consistency.Frankzappatwin (talk) 23:56, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

Edit warring?
About the 3 or 4 Grammys? If so, the thing is I know he has four, and when I made the edit I fully explained why and proved he has four and provided citations. From my perspective everything I do is now in question. I plan to do a lot less but I at least want what is left to be correct.
