The new Table of contents design

Who's idea was it to make it spread across the whole article?! It's so annoying. Who is making these stupid changes.

It's back now. I guess it was some code mistake or something! :) — Tomíca(T2ME) 23:29, 18 July 2013 (UTC)

Thank you, music passioner singing in the shower, for quality articles on songs, such as Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded, contributions to Macedonia such as Skopje, for featured lists and random acts of kindness, - you are an awesome Wikipedian!

Thank you Gerda! I really appreciate this. Cheers! :) — Tomíca(T2ME) 07:48, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

Re: Diamonds

Sure, no problems. I see that Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded got the FA—congrats! SnapSnap 17:26, 19 July 2013 (UTC)

Good Girl Gone Bad

I found your rv summary unclear. Please explain exactly what you mean by "Most changes are TOTALLY wrong. The italicization of the field framework in all the cases is wrong". What did was (a) remove superfluous 'publisher' parameters where both the 'work' and the 'publisher' were given as 'publisher', and change the parameter to 'work' or 'website', and (b) remove a number of entirely superfluous 'publisher' parameters (no-one checking a reference to The Guardian, for instance, is in any way helped by being told that it's published by Guardian Media Group). This is in line with the guidance provided for the use of the 'cite' template at Template:Citation#Publisher. I raised all this on the talk page last week. Colonies Chris (talk) 14:11, 22 July 2013 (UTC)

First of all read this (what Nikkimaria (talk · contribs) provided when she reverted you). And yeah I know I wasn't clear; what your wrong formatting did, an example: Allmusic should not be italicized in the reference, and that's what you exactly did when you made it work=Allmusic. Why it shouldn't be? Because simply the title of the article is not in italization. The references are okay as are now, I don't know why are you making big deal of them. Sorry, but your edit didn't make them better, contrary... — Tomíca(T2ME) 14:17, 22 July 2013 (UTC)
The citations I fixed were factually inaccurate. The plain fact is that, for example, the Danish Singles Chart, is not a 'publisher', it is a 'work' - (a work whose publisher is Hung Medien). Similarly, Digital Spy is a 'work', published by Hachette Filipacchi Médias. This isn't a question of style, it's a question of fact. CITEVAR has nothing to do with it. If you don't like the way the cite template formats things, you have two options; you can avoid using it, and format everything yourself, or you can apply formatting to the parameters to make them look the way you want them. What you can't do is change the facts to achieve the formatting you want to see. I would advise neither option. Just stick with the facts and the formatting that the template provides.

WikiCup 2013 July newsletter

We're halfway through this year's penultimate round, and the competition is moving along well. Pool A's Canada Sasata (submissions) currently leads overall, while Pool B's Colorado Sturmvogel_66 (submissions) is second. Both leaders are WikiCup veterans, and both have already scored over 600 points this month. If the round were to end today, London Miyagawa (submissions), with 274 points, would be the lowest-scoring participant to make it through. This indicates that participants will need a score comparable to last year's (573, the highest ever) to qualify for the final. The high scores this year are a testament both to the quality of participants and to the increased focus on significant content (eligible for bonus points) in this year's competition. So far this round, both Sasata and Wales Cwmhiraeth (submissions) have made up over half of their score through bonus points, with, for example, high importance FA koala earning Sasata a total of 440 points (from a multiplier of 4.4) and high-importance GA sea earning Cwmhiraeth a total of 216 points (from a multiplier of 7.2). Other articles on important topics submitted this round include a featured article on the Norman conquest of England by Wyoming Ealdgyth (submissions), and good articles on Nobel laureate in literature Henryk Sienkiewicz, Nobel laureate in physics Hans Bethe, and the noted Japanese aircraft carrier Hiryū. These articles are by Poland Piotrus (submissions), Australia Hawkeye7 (submissions) and Sturmvogel_66 respectively.

Other than that, there is not much to report! 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. If you want to help out with the WikiCup, please do your bit to reduce the review backlogs! Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

Diamonds

I actually heard the song on September 22, 2012 and the only way I remember that is because it was the same day of my school's homecoming dance! That song was released way before, but I don't know which day it was actually released on... ChicagoWiz 16:02, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

How come you heard the song back then? :O The song premiered for the first time ever on September 26 on the Elvis Duran and the Morning Show, I remember that as it was yday! — Tomíca(T2ME) 16:32, 1 August 2013 (UTC)

Hello, I'm BracketBot. I have automatically detected that your edit to Rihanna discography may have broken the syntax by modifying 1 "()"s and 1 "{}"s likely mistaking one for another. If you have, don't worry, just edit the page again to fix it. If I misunderstood what happened, or if you have any questions, you can leave a message on my operator's talk page.

List of unpaired brackets remaining on the page:
  • * World: 3,000,000 <small> (as of 2012} </small><ref>{{cite web | url=http://srpmusicgroup.com/about-us | title=Syndicated

Rihanna's eighth studio album

Sorry if I've confused you by saying "eight" studio album instead of "eighth." That word is kinda tricky, so I screwed up when I said "eight", but she is working on new material for her upcoming album and I used a reliable source to give detail on what she's doing now! Reread the source again and you'll see! ChicagoWiz 16:19, 4 August 2013 (UTC)

Nicki Minaj videography

I currently opened a peer assess for the article Nicki Minaj videography, I was hoping that you could take a look, leave feedback for improvement and contribute to the article where you see it's nessessary. I ask because you did a great job with the Rihanna videography, as well as others, so If you can help it would be appreciated. :-) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Peer_review/Nicki_Minaj_videography/archive1 KaneZolanski (talk) 12:12, 6 August 2013 (UTC)

Ref name changes

When you see an edit like this, the editor didn't make those changes to the refs on purpose. It's a known (but harmless) bug in Visual Editor that occurs when a reference is reused. It doesn't break anything, and an editor using Visual Editor can't avoid it.—Kww(talk) 17:38, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Oh, okay, thanks for clarifying that. However, his edit was still not constructive. He added Rihanna's name as songwriter, when in fact we all know she didn't contribute any writing to the Loud songs. Thanks anyway! — Tomíca(T2ME) 17:40, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
Kww, he added the credits again. Please do something cause I don't want to engage in reverting war anymore. — Tomíca(T2ME) 17:45, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
Per http://repertoire.bmi.com/TitleSearch.asp?querytype=WorkName&page=1&fromrow=1&torow=25&keyname=Man%20Down&blnWriter=True&blnPublisher=True&blnArtist=False&blnAltTitles=False he's right: Robyn R Fenty is given credit as a songwriter for "Man Down".—Kww(talk) 17:55, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
But we are not citing BMI now, since the song has been already released in an album (Loud) and per the album official booklet Rihanna AKA Robyn Fenty is nowhere as a songwriter. — Tomíca(T2ME) 17:56, 8 August 2013 (UTC)
Then the album credits are making false statements for marketing reasons. BMI, ASCAP, and SESAC are legal statements regarding the people that are credited for a song, an album booklet is not.—Kww(talk) 18:04, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Macedonian help needed

Hello Tomica, I'm contacting you because we need some Macedonian translators to help with the deployment of the new VisualEditor on mk.wikipedia. There are help pages, user guides, and description pages that need translating, as well as the interface itself. The translating work is going on over on MediaWiki: Translation Central. I also need help with a personal message for the Macedonian Wikipedians. If you are able to help in any way, either reply here, or head over to TranslationCentral. Thanks for your time, PEarley (WMF) (talk) 18:19, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi PEarley! Thanks for the invitation. Of course I can help you with the translation of the VisualEditor on Macedonian. Just please explain to me how to do that more thoroughly, because I kinda lack experience in that area. Cheers! — Tomíca(T2ME) 18:38, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
Tomica! Good to hear from you. Someone stepped up today and did 100% of the interface, which is great. Here's some links to the important Help pages, simply click "translate this page" at the top of each and select "Macedonian" to get started:
  1. the User Guide, Macedonian 0% complete.
  2. Portal/Description page, Macedonian 0% complete (this one is important because the translation can become the main VE page on mk.wiki, which doesn't have a VE general description page yet).
  3. FAQ, Macedonian is 0% complete. Any progress you can make with these three will help mk.wiki users get up to date on VE. Let me know if you have any questions/issues, and thanks for helping! PEarley (WMF) (talk) 21:52, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

WP:FOUR RFC

There are two WP:RFCs at WP:FOUR. The first is to conflate issues so as to keep people from expressing meaningful opinions.

The digital chart shows some count points, while the download one shows the downloads. I don't think the digital chart numbers are the total sales. They are too much. — Tomíca(T2ME) 16:54, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
