RE: Buenos Amigos
I didn't forget, but I've been sidetracked by other projects and helping new editors. At the moment, I want to do Buenos Amigos after No Me Ames. Have a look at that article and tell me what you think. I'll be gone for a week on a cruise. Erick (talk) 19:44, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

Infinite
Hi, I'd just like to remind you that I added the "publisherid" at the Infinite (Eminem album) GA. :) All the Best, --Khanassassin ☪ 15:43, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
- Yes I know, however, I am having difficulties in believing an artist official site should be trusted. Please join the discussion here. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 17:18, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
- Hi! I believe now, judging by the result of the discussion at the Good article nominations talk page, the article's issue-free. :) And, as noted at the discussion, it's OK to reference the artist's quote, which I did, and the second time the ref's used is for the same information, just not as a quote from Eminem, if that's understandable. :) Best, --Khanassassin ☪ 15:29, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

Latin music task force
Check out the updated scope on what's included on the task force. Erick (talk) 20:49, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
- I already read it when you updated it. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 21:09, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
- Oh. My bad. D= Erick (talk) 21:11, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
- Why did you take "Always Mine" off of WP:Latin music? Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 21:16, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
- Song is in English, has to be in Spanish unless a Spanish version was released as a single. I had to draw a line on what's included and what's not. I also removed Marc Anthony's English albums because it didn't meet the 50% criteria. But if you have a suggestion, I'm always listening. Erick (talk) 21:26, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
- The song has Spanish lyrics as well [1] Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 21:33, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
- So it's a Spanglish song? If so, that's good enough for me. Erick (talk) 21:34, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
- Yes, I sent you the lyrics for verification. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 21:37, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
- Okay, I guess it's fine. Lately I've been cautious about including the task force on song articles that aren't in English. Erick (talk) 21:40, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

- Oh. My bad. D= Erick (talk) 21:11, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
Okay, I'll explain what was really going on. You see, I couldn't just say a Latin song because there are a lot songs performed by non-Latin artists. Best example was Beyonce because she released some of her singles in a Spanish version so I was iffy about that. But when I talked to Status, he suggested an artist should have a Latin background and I was like "Why didn't I think of that?" So yeah, it's all cool now, any of Selena's songs can be in because she was a Latin recording artist and the albums were mostly in Spanish. Sorry about earlier, we cool? :D — Preceding unsigned comment added by Magiciandude (talk • contribs)
- Of course buddy I didn't take it to heart lolz. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 22:17, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
- Think I should just change the rule of requiring a Spanish version to "It may be in another language such as English under the condition that it was recorded by a Latin recording artist"? Because the way it's written, Selena's songs "Dreaming of You" and "I Could Fall in Love" wouldn't be in it and neither would English-language songs by artists such as Shakira and Ricky Martin wouldn't be in it. I'm really confused. I'm tellign song inclusion rules are harder to do than the albums and artists. >_< The reason I feel confused is because songs like Underneath Your Clothes didn't have a Spanish version. What's hard about the inclusion criteria is weeding out songs that aren't targeted directly for the Hispahonophone audience. Erick (talk) 05:26, 23 June 2012 (UTC)
- Well both I Could Fall in Love and Dreaming of You has Spanish lyrics in the mid-break so wouldn't that still be an exception? I think that any songs recorded in Spanish even if the artist is not of Hispanic origin should be included in my pov. Shakira's English songs don't have any Spanish lyrics, but maybe adding that if the artist is Hispanic, all his/her works are automatically eligible for inclusion. BTW I'm going to start the Buenos Amigos article very soon. Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 20:03, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
- More like becuase it's done by a Latin recording artist
- which is acceptable. I was about to ask about "Buenos Amigos" as well since "No Me Ames" is pretty much done. So "Buenos Amigos" and Viva el Príncipe by Cristian Castro are the two articles on I'll be working on right now. :P Erick (talk) 21:07, 27 June 2012 (UTC)
- Ok great! I will start soon as well and good luck on your GAs :) Best, Jonayo! Selena 4 ever 21:44, 27 June 2012 (UTC)

You called it! Any artist of Latin background should be included so long as the artist is a performer of Latin music. These two articles by Carlos Quintana of About.com perfectly describes what is Latin music. This article describes what is Latin music and this article describes what defines a Latin artist. Very helpful indeed. Oh and I don't know if you saw at my talk page, but the same guy also writes some great stuff about Latin music such as the history, the basic can be found here. Erick (talk) 04:30, 28 June 2012 (UTC)
I don't know if you saw, but I left a message on your sandbox for Buenos Amigos on an idea on how to do the article it's not widely cover. BTW, Tbhotch left a message for you on my talk page. Erick (talk) 01:07, 2 July 2012 (UTC)
WikiCup 2012 June newsletter
Apologies for the lateness of this letter; our usual bot wasn't working. We are now entering round 4, our semi-finals, and have our final 16. A score of 243 was required to reach this round; significantly more than 2011's 76 points, and only a little behind 2010's 250 points. By comparison, last year, 150 points in round 4 secured a place in the final; in 2010, 430 were needed. Commiserations to Pool A's igordebraga (submissions), who scored 242 points, missing out on a place in the round by a whisker. However, congratulations to Pool B's Grapple X (submissions), whose television articles have brought him another round victory. Pool A's Cwmhiraeth (submissions) came second overall, with an impressive list of biological did you knows, good articles and featured articles. Third overall was Pool D's Muboshgu (submissions), with a long list of contibutions, mostly relating to baseball. Of course, with the points resetting every round, the playing field has been levelled. The most successful Pool was Pool D, which saw seven into the final round. Pool B saw four, C saw three and Pool A saw only the two round leaders.
A quick note about other competitions taking place on Wikipedia which may be of interest. There are 13 days remaining in the June-July GAN backlog elimination drive, but it is not too late to take part. August will also see the return of The Core Contest- a one month long competition first run in 2007. While the WikiCup awards points for audited content on any subject, The Core Contest about is raw article improvement, focussing heavily on the most important articles on Wikipedia.

Questions are welcome on Wikipedia talk:WikiCup, and the judges are reachable on their talk pages or by email. Good luck!

WikiCup 2012 July newsletter
We're approaching the beginning of 2012's final round. Pool A sees Cwmhiraeth (submissions) as the leader, with 300 points being awarded for the featured article Bivalvia, and Pool B sees Grapple X (submissions) in the lead, with 10 good articles, and over 35 articles eligible for good topic points. Pool A sees Muboshgu (submissions) in second place with a number of articles relating to baseball, while Pool B's Ruby2010 (submissions) follows Grapple X, with a variety of contributions including the high-scoring, high-importance featured article on the 2010 film Pride & Prejudice. Ruby2010, like Grapple X, also claimed a number of good topic points; despite this, not a single point has been claimed for featured topics in the contest so far. The same is true for featured portals.
Currently, the eighth-place competitor (and so the lowest scorer who would reach the final round right now) has scored 332, more than double the 150 needed to reach the final round last year. In 2010, however, 430 was the lowest qualifying score. In this competition, we have generally seen scores closer to those in 2010 than those in 2011. Let's see what kind of benchmark we can set for future competitions! 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.
