Talk:Hey Hey Hey

Dark pop

I do not believe the source is actually stating this. The Guardian article states "Elsewhere, Chained to the Rhythm is subtly woke, so as not to alienate listeners in Trumpland, Hey Hey Hey deals in dark dream pop a la Banks and Grimes (“I’m Marilyn Monroe in a monstertruck”, she sings, purposely stilted), and Power is all empowerment and retro funk – think Roar via Bruno Mars." Seperating the genres is not advised per WP:STICKTOSOURCE. I only really read this as a dark take on dream pop. The individual genre is not mentioned. Unless you want to make "dark dream pop" its own thing. But then you shouldn't wikilink it. Thoughts? Andrzejbanas (talk) 20:31, 15 January 2018 (UTC)

Removal of GAN

@Cartoon network freak: Just wanted to ask why you removed the GAN for this? Aoba47 (talk) 18:46, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

@Aoba47: It was grounds for an instant fail.  — Calvin999 19:09, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

• @Calvin999: Thank you for the response! What were the grounds for the instant fail for this article? I honestly have not read this article that thoroughly so I apologize if it is obvious. I do not mean to be nosy, but I would just like to know to avoid making similar mistakes in my own projects and GANs. Aoba47 (talk) 19:31, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

• @Aoba47: It was released as a single on 12 January and nominated for GAN the next day. It is very likely that the content will change drastically, meaning that whatever is reviewed will be subject to further changes and expansion, and so would need reviewing again under GAR. The grounds for instant fail is not because the nominator has done anything wrong, it is because the history is unstable as a result of being released as a single and making it prone to a lot of edits the past few weeks, and articles are supposed to be stable and not being changed regularly. I recommended that the nominator wait for the article to become stable again when the songs popularity dies down and nominate in a few months.  — Calvin999 19:38, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

• Thank you again for the response, and I apologize for prying into this. I still have a lot to learn and I am always trying to improve my own abilities on Wikipedia so I greatly appreciate your explanation. I completely agree with your rationale about this matter; I wonder if a note should be added to either Wikipedia:WikiProject Songs or Wikipedia:WikiProject Music or both that would advise users against nominating singles (and albums) that were recently released (and by recent I mean within a few months). Either way, stability would definitely be under question for this, and I would also argue that it would not be comprehensive as new articles could be written about it during the weeks and/or months following its release. I apologize for the long response; just wanted to say thank you and that I agree with you. Aoba47 (talk) 19:44, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

• It is an unwritten rule that people should wait, it ties in with the stability and coverage criteria. Whether they do or not is another question.  — Calvin999 19:49, 25 January 2018 (UTC)

• Understood, that makes perfect sense to me. That is the main reason why I worked on articles about older subject matters as I know that a majority (if not all) of the sources are already out there. Aoba47 (talk) 20:01, 25 January 2018 (UTC)
