Thank you today for Margaret (singer), "about one of the most popular contemporary artists in Poland with some achievements in other European countries and after her participation in Melodifestivalen 2018 she will undoubtedly attract even more attention"! --Gerda Arendt (talk) 07:41, 23 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Joe Alywn Grammy Nom/Win

https://www.cheatsheet.com/entertainment/could-joe-alwyn-win-a-grammy-for-folklore-taylor-swift-confirmed-hes-co-writer-william-bowery.html/

Howdy, This article describes how he would receive a grammy if "Exile" were to win, so he did technically receive a nomination. From my understanding of Grammy/album credit rules (I could be wrong) since Alywn contributed lyrics and piano arrangement for the album, he would technically be credited. Thank you.

Mare Micksen (talk) 15:54, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Mare Micksen: Hi. Unfortunately, this article is inaccurate. First of all, Best Performance categories recognise performers not songwriters. As for the album award, I believe they only recognise main contributors. I simply go by what the official Grammys website says and when you look up either William Bowery or Joe Alwyn they're not there. ArturSik (talk) 10:45, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds good, thank you for the info!

Lady Gaga Genealogy

Hi I don’t know if you’re aware but I gave sources for the reason I changed Gaga‘s ancestry. I am guessing you either didn’t read my description or are being snobby in that you want me to add the sources to the bottom of the page in citations… but I’m not very good at doing that yet… so rather than delete my work I would appreciate you actually helping me here and reading what I wrote in both the talk page and my edit reasoning in regards to her genealogy. Thank you! Magnumb22 (talk) 06:00, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I also want to mention that if you look at the source that is being used in regards to her ancestry in the original (factually-incorrect) edit you brought back it is an opinion piece from the Washington Post… not a valid source especially in regards to someone’s genealogy.

Magnumb22 (talk) 06:03, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

@Magnumb22: Hi. I'm not sure which sources you are referring to because you provided none in the article, which is a must when adding any new content on Wikipedia. The one source you included on the talk page is not a reliable source. You can learn more about what is considered a reliable source here. Good luck with future edits. ArturSik (talk) 20:59, 9 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Are you trying to start an edit war? Forget about the sources and look at the information that I put in the talk page… Do your own research maybe and then get back to me on it and answer me this… do you know what Genealogy means and is. Have you ever tried to research genealogy because it sounds to me like you may not understand the basics of researching people’s genealogy and/or ancestry.

Harry Styles Personal Life

Hello ArturSik!

I have been working on Harry's personal life section for a few months now in attempts to make the way it discusses his sexual orientation more respectful and I have noticed you watch over that page a lot. Thank you so much for blessing my edits to it the other day - it really meant a lot. I have one last request, which is that I think that Harry's personal life section much like Tyler the Creator's should cite one of his songs, as Harry says he prefers to relay a lot of his life experiences through his music rather than interviews. After thinking through how to phrase it, I added the sentence about his song Medicine to his personal life section. Do you feel like it seems to be phrased respectfully in a way that points out that critics have interpreted it a certain way? If so, as an experienced editor, would you please watch over it? I defer to your judgement as I know you have a history with the page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by H-influenzae (talk • contribs) 21:03, 29 April 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Harry's band

Hello! Sorry but I really think erasing Harry's band is simply not ok unless you also intend to erase every member of One Direction. He has literally toured with Mitch Rowland and Sarah Jones longer than he toured with any of the members of One Direction. They are mentioned in every tour review, including in the big publications like NME and Rolling Stone. It's akin to ignoring Bowie's work with Tin Machine and saying all of it needs its own article. H-influenzae (talk) 01:57, 8 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Ah sorry, nevermind, I misread what you deleted! Looks good actually I agree it was getting bogged down. H-influenzae (talk) 02:05, 8 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Harry Styles

Given the song Medicine has its own page that details its reception and the same goes for the dress, could you remove that section and restore it to the neutral tone it had before https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Harry_Styles&oldid=1093711874#Philanthropy_and_advocacy 92.80.146.183 (talk) 05:36, 18 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Precious anniversary

I'm looking for some help

Hi i was wondering if you could help me become a better writer on wikipedia. I've been informed lately that I'm going against MOS guidelines ever since I started editing the "Angel of My Dreams", page. Although I've read the MOS page I still don't understand what I'm doing wrong and would appreciate it if you could give me some examples of where I'm going wrong? Thanks in advance Escmix (talk) 22:40, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Escmix, I think it's best you reach out to Livelikemusic who issued the warning. At a first glance I don't see any major issues with your edits, but I could be wrong as I've not gone through the whole history though I can see that you've contributed a great deal to the article. Sure, it could do with a bit of c/e some of which I have already done, but I've not spotted any violations. ArturSik (talk) 23:09, 23 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello and thanks for taking the time to reply back. I appreciate the fact that you highlighted that I contributed a great deal and made some minor mistakes. It's made me feel a bit better and I'll definitely take you're advice on board! Escmix (talk) 09:17, 24 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Catherine O'Hara

Hi, I just wanted clarification over your reversion of my edit at Catherine O'Hara. You mentioned in your edit summary that you reverted it because it was the only instance it appeared. In my edit summary I left a link to MOS:OVERLINK which isn't about repeated links, it's about how nationalities don't need to be linked in articles. 18:43, 9 September 2024 (UTC) Suonii180 (talk) 18:43, 9 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Lady Gaga Lead

Hi,

This is the justification you used for not including featured/lead artists on the songs released "redundant to include features in the lead. We would have to do the same for Telephone and Rain On Me which would make the lead unnecessarily crowded".

I'm sorry to maybe be the one to tell you this, but this has some flaws in its essence. Take "Shallow" for instance, Bradley Cooper is an integral part of the song, same as Ariana Grande on "Rain on Me" and others. Their contributions to the songs don't seem redundant. On top of this, Gaga's career is not filled with feature guests on her songs or she is not a featured artist on many "relevant" songs.

"Making the lead...crowed", I'm not sure what you mean here, since we are talking about 4/5 names and not 100 of them.

Be aware that I'm not trying to come off as disrespectful or rude, since I believe your contributions to Lady Gaga's articles have been instrumental. I'm just trying to give you some food for thought as this not give credits because they are featured or duet is a strange choice.

Kind regards, MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 14:10, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I don’t think you’re being disrespectful at all, and I completely understand you’d like an explanation, so here comes. Per WP:MoS/Lead section, we should keep the lead as concise as possible. I am not questioning the featured artists’ level of contribution to the songs, but what value exactly their inclusion adds to Gaga’s lead? Gaga is the lead artist on all of these songs, and they are widely associated with her. She’s had an expansive career, and the lead is frequently revised to include a concise summary of the whole article consisting of only the most relevant information/achievements of her career. Adding features in brackets where in some cases we already have bracketed year of release creates chaos and makes it difficult for some to follow the text. We should be avoiding an excess of bracketed information in the same sentences or close to each other. Also, if you check other FAs of music artists you will rarely find featured artists mentioned in the lead as it is not a common practise. Hope this clarified things. ArturSik (talk) 17:56, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

First of all thank you for the quick reply.

"Gaga is the lead artist on all of these songs, and they are widely associated with her." I beg to disagree while she is the main artist on "Just Dance" and "Telephone", she shares the "lead" role on "Shallow", "Rain on Me" and more recently "Die With a Smile", along with other songs with Toby Bennett. Since it says "with" and not featuring "X" or "Y" artist.

I have only seem similar on Katy Perry. Maybe not brackets but maybe just saying "the Billboard Global 200 number-one single "Die with a Smile" (2024) with Bruno Mars." Done, simple and straight to the point. At least on the ones she shares the lead role, should be given more importance.

Otherwise, I could go on Ariana Grande's article and claim the same, since they both share lead role, the same for Bradley Cooper, Mars, etc...Do you understand where I'm coming from?

Kind regards, MarioSoulTruthFan (talk) 18:27, 18 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The lead in Ariana Grande’s article is exactly what we should avoid. It’s the opposite of concise. And it’s not a FA, it’s not even a GA. Here we should maintain certain standards. Katy Perry’s is one example, but if you look at the lead in Taylor Swift, Meghan Trainor, Mariah Carey, Kylie Minogue or Gwen Stefani there are no features included either. But perhaps it’d be a better idea if you take this to Gaga’s talk page rather than mine and get input from other editors. In my opinion including song features doesn’t add anything to the lead.
