Did you have an issue against me reviewing Pre-Madonna because of this discussion? Or were you referring to a different article/issue when you commented on Lego's page? -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1[talk] 04:26, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
That's fair enough. I have never asked Lego to do a GA for me in return for stuff i've review etc. and I didnt pick Pre-Madonna in the hope of getting Lego to do me a favour. Admittedly yes Lego has had some input into my FA nomination of When Love Takes Over, as in he participated in the peer review but has not commented on the FA nomination page, though he has been explaining some of the concerns of other editors to me. But other than that I didn't really see it as an issue. I will bare it in mind in future though. Just to clarify I am personally of the opinion that GA swaps are not a good idea. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1[talk] 04:36, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
If its a contentious issue... I'll be more than happy to hand the Pre-Madonna review to someone else... -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1[talk] 04:42, 1 February 2011 (UTC)

You reverted that vandal before I even noticed! Blocked now, as you may have noticed. BencherliteTalk 19:27, 1 February 2011 (UTC)
A friendly note
This edit slightly broke the main {{jct}} template. You inserted the semi template, but on a new line, which inserted a line break into every transclusion of the subtemplate. No big deal, but I thought that I'd let you know for future reference to put the <noinclude> right after the last element of a template. Thanks for adding the template though.

Reff opinion's
Hello. I am currently working on Work It Out (Beyoncé Knowles song) excessively, and I am wondering if some of the sources I've used are accurate and reference-able, according to your opinion? And I was also wondering if you would consider http://www.kidzworld.com/article/2346-austin-powers-in-goldmember-soundtrack-review a good source to put into "Critical reception" and "Music and style"? Hope I'm not bothering you, I just happen to be very new at the art of making GA's (hopefully FA). Thank you :D Theuhohreo (talk) 16:41, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Personally I would consider it reliable. Including the fact that it is a "website for kids, mostly Tweens, kids ages 9 - 14," which means it's articles are written for that audience, which also includes a portion of the audience who could read the article here on wikipedia. I would like to include it in the article, because it gives a great insight into the song and would help improve the "Critical Reception" portion... But it's more of a question like "is the site professional enough to include on the article without making it a joke?" Theuhohreo (talk) 20:50, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Very true, thats exactly what I was thinking. I just wanted to get a more professional opinion on the matter :] Thanx! :D Theuhohreo (talk) 21:00, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Hello Tbhotch, and thanks for patrolling new pages! I am just letting you know that I contested the speedy deletion of LT GEN VK AHLUWALIA,AVSM**,YSM,VSM, a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: Page is tagged for proposed deletion, not speedy deletion. You may wish to review the Criteria for Speedy Deletion before tagging further pages. Thank you. LoganTalkContributions 04:12, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
Hi there. I didn't know there was a bot that updated those article histories, as I'd always done it myself in the past, with no negative repercussions. How does the bot know when to update the template? —Torchiesttalkedits 23:06, 3 February 2011 (UTC)
What you mentioned said not to manually update when the FAC closes. I don't think it's problematic to update the status beforehand, since the bot can still update it when the FAC is completed. Also, the article is now showing as both a FAC and a former FAC. I'd like to undo your change to fix that. It's not that big of a deal, is it? —Torchiesttalkedits 23:33, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism: Beagle 2 page
Could you please take a look at the developing situation on this page, 1st paragraph. I and Valhalan are attempting to reinstate the original text of this para, which is both more professional and more informative than the less-clear and less illuminating text which Ruslik0 is trying to replace it with.
On the Discussion page I have given my detailed reasons for the reinstatement. However, Ruslik0 is responding by not only trying to reinstate his inferior version, without citing any reasons whatsoever, but also trying to get me suspended "for Vandalism"!!!
This action of Ruslik0 is of course the ultimate in vandalism-- to abuse the mechanism for dealing with vandals, and then actually use it as a vandal's tool.
Could you please examine the matter.
Thankyou
(204.112.54.106 (talk) 04:44, 5 February 2011 (UTC))
NB Ruslik0 is particularly misleading in 2 key areas. First, the clear possibility that Beagle 2 missed Mars has been deleted by him (no reason given). Second, his misleading term "failed to make ground contact" in many English speaking countries, and to many foreigners whose English is not good, means "failed to Land".
I have warned Ruslik0 about his vandalistic attitude, but he has not heeded said warning.
It looks like you're on vandalism patrol at the moment, which is a good thing, but I would consider taking another look at this edit. Yes, it was correct to revert the edit, but I'm pretty sure he didn't intentionally want to disrupt the article, which is what vandalism is all about. He is new to Wikipedia and might not understand the rules, so I decided to give him a welcome message and a talkinarticle message too. Minimac (talk) 07:37, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

Harry Belafonte
Hello! Perhaps you could help me with something. I am enrolled in a college English course at Minneapolis Community and Technical College. One of our assignments is to research and improve a Wikipedia song article in an effort to make worthy of being a Featured Article. This was the article I was given. I am relatively new to Wikipedia and even though I have read through the policies and procedures pages, I am unsure of how to have the article unprotected. I think I did everything right. Would you be willing to consider my request or provide additional guidance as to how I can complete my assignment? Thanks! Boris n' Bosko (talk) 03:51, 10 February 2011 (UTC)

Spanish-language albums and songs
Hey Tbhotch. Do you anything about the capitalization of albums and songs if it uses both Spanish and English? Por ejemplo, El Cartel: The Big Boss y Desde un Principio: From the Beginning. I also saw an album called "En Vivo... Puro Party Live" under Grammy Award for Best Mexican/Mexican-American Album, so I don't know how it should be written. I've moved almost every number-one Latin albums and Grammies in Spanish articles to the correct format. Thanks in advance! Magiciandude (talk) 07:23, 12 February 2011 (UTC)

Spanish people and Wikipedia wide issue about ethnicity
Hello, I was the one who changed the number of Spanish people in Spain to Unknown. This is not something subjective, the figure being wrong is a fact and the references are there. If this is something that should be discussed, I feel that it would make more sense that in the meanwhile it is left as Unknown instead of having a wrong figure, specially since I feel it will be largely ignored. I've also seen that the article Swedes has the same problem as the one for Spaniards, the number of ethnic Swedes is wrong. Many more articles might have this issue.
Also as I see that you are a well established Wikipedia editor, I would like to let you know about the Wikipedia wide issue of ethnicity percentage. In the section Ethnicity in the article for Germany it says 91% German, this word German links to the article Germans which is not about ethnic Germans but German nationals. 91% is in fact the percentage of German nationals, a great percentage of these aren't ethnic Germans, e.g Turks. There is a wrong figure in the page of almost every European country I checked. You can't provide the real figures since these countries don't keep track of ethnicity. One can't even provide a valid source for an estimation of these numbers.
I suggest doing a major revision of all these articles, either substituting the percentage/figure for Unknown or removing the ethnicity section. Wikipedia can't leave it the way it is now because it can mislead people.
Something less important but that I think I should note is that the articles are inconsistent. "French people" is NOT about ethnic French. "Spanish people" IS about ethnic Spaniards. "Swedish people" which redirects to "Swedes" IS about ethnic Swedes. "German people" which redirects to "Germans" is NOT about ethnic Germans, etc...
Thanks for helping. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Grondolf (talk • contribs) 22:06, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
Celine Dion "Voice" section
Thanks for the welcome...I've been on here for over three years, but thanks, regardless. That said, the other user did not cite sources correctly. In addition, the very first NYT statement was deleted. The other statements were kept, but that user should provide a convincing argument for why they deleted it. Regardless, I'm more concerned about the references, where correctly cited sources help maintain the article's FA status. I maybe should have approached the matter in a different way, but the user's edits should be reverted. Now, since I am at the three-edit threshold I will hold my edit until tomorrow, but you of all people should understand the importance of correctly citing a source. Thank you. BalticPat22Patrick (talk) 05:59, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
Well, the IP user just violated the revert rule. Should I give them a free pass on that as well because they're an IP user? I don't want to begin an argument, but users should know how to cite sources correctly, regardless if they're an IP user or not (which I find to be completely ridiculous). That said, I already had to correct grammar, unlinked sources, and correct translations from French to English (which is nearly impossible to do completely correctly). I also re-added the entire deleted New York Times statement that the IP user deleted without providing any explanation. Lastly, the user's using books as references, which is fine. I just don't think they should delete a source that's readily available to dissect with one that's not as "available." Your tone doesn't need to be as edgy, either. I acknowledged my mishandling of the IP user, but I do not regret the actions I took. Lastly, I truly appreciate all you do for this article, and I hope that something this trivial doesn't change anything.BalticPat22Patrick (talk) 18:16, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
spam?
1 - How can you class a relevant historical site as "spam"?
2 - please do not delete messages, it only makes you look bad.
I understand and applaud your efforts to keep people from using Wikipedia to advertise their business(like what has happened to sites such as you tube), but the link I added is not advertising/spam. these are places and things that no longer exist.
CE/BCE usage for Maya stelae was not against any portion of the WP:MOS that I could find. If I am wrong, please point me to the correct information. I apologize if I am, but I believe I am not wrong in using CE/BCE for the article. - 205.167.124.179 (talk) 02:26, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

It's not vandalism
It isn't vandalism, maybe it isn't required on the page and my intentions are to be funny; however, vandalism pushes it too far as the edit that I am making is actually informative to a reader who mistakes the page for jizz. Sometimes the attempts that editors make go too far. (talk)

I'm not thrilled about it, but it's small stuff and they say that you shouldn't sweat the small stuff. Have a good night, sir. Strikerforce (talk) 07:07, 16 March 2011 (UTC)
public markets, mercados públicos or what?

Not a big priority (I agree with the reversions), but I'd like a few examples. I doubt it's actually CharlieJS13: he edits using a DSL line out of British Telecom. This editor is also British, but using a different network. It's not Greenock125, either. —Kww(talk) 19:27, 17 March 2011 (UTC)
About Diner Dash and all Dash of the game series
Hi, I want to add link to Diner Dash page and other but semi-protected, then I seen at page history and you are the last editor, now can you help me add link to page???
I have become aware of your notifications to major contributors of forthcoming TFA appearances on the Main Page, which looks to be a useful service. I wonder whether you might copy such a note to the talk page of the articles involved, so that anyone with the page on their watchlist will be aware: I am prompted to this by recent discussion at Talk:Thoroughbred. I guess sometimes the main contributor cannot be easily identified, or might be on a wikibreak. Kevin McE (talk) 22:18, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Pertaining to my previous post to you, I made a post at WP:ANI concerning user Markelmitchell, after another editor's response to my report of the user at WP:AVI. Here's the "ANI-notice" that the ANI noticeboard said to post to anyone in the discussion, if you'd like to add something. Hello. This message is being sent to inform you that there is currently a discussion at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents regarding an issue with which you may have been involved. Thank you.

Your edit summary
Hello... while I do regret (and apologize for) inadvertently undoing your rearranging of the template order at Basketball, I also feel quite strongly that your edit summary - "Thanks for your rollback missuse" - was out of line and rather inappropriate. Even the most cursory examination of my edits to the article tonight would have clearly indicated that they were in good faith and beneficial. In future, please just leave a note on my talk page to draw my attention to any inadvertent errors, instead of making snide comments in edit summaries. --Ckatzchatspy 04:41, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

Not sure you would see this on my talk page, so I included here for your convenience:
I disagree with your interpretation of my comment. I was not attacking any users in particular (therefore no personal attacks) but the fascist regime that requires me to sign-in to pay proper tribute to a great artist now lost. That is to say, if such restrictions were not arbitrarily placed on this "sum of all human knowledge" then my constructive contributions would be made directly to the article and not the discussion page (as outlined in the "Be Bold" section of the Wikipedia Welcome). Further, if there were to be a personal attack made, I would call into question your ability to logically reason and command the English language as you want me to "rephrase [my] comment as a civil criticism of the article" when there were no criticisms of anything but the article present in my comment; simply that the article had a minor misspelling that I would have liked to have fixed but could not due to restrictions imposed by "someone else". And even then, if I were to make such statements about your frivolous and vulgar abuses of power, I would argue that it my saying so would be less of a personal attack and more of an observation of circumstances. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.55.118.152 (talk) 06:36, 22 March 2011 (UTC)

The FAC brought up a query about researching print sources. Here are a few scanned magazines you might wanna take a look at (not sure how relevant): [6][7] (I can't view this one) [8] (Jivesh might be able to help you with French) [9] and [10] (in German). Good luck with the FAC!! :D Adabow (talk · contribs) 06:14, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Yes Tbhotch . Feel free to ask. Jivesh • Talk2Me 16:00, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
The article is only about that she knelt down in Australia 10 October 2009 to sing "Halo" to a girl she brought onstage. Barely 3 lines. Do you still want me to translate it? Jivesh • Talk2Me 16:12, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Listen, i would love to help me. First tell me what type of information you need? Jivesh • Talk2Me 16:17, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
The link you gave me is great. It has plenty of information that will be of great help to expand other articles of Beyonce. Jivesh • Talk2Me 16:22, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Reply whenever you get time. Take care. Jivesh • Talk2Me 16:24, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
To tell you frankly, editors at FAC are too demanding. The composition section is already great. By the way, i do not think he was talking about the composition section only. He wanted to verify if the article contains all the information that can be found on it on reliable sources. Just tell him a YES. Jivesh • Talk2Me 16:30, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Wait i just figured out what he means. I think that he wants more information on recording and production (of course only if there is) and the information should not be from magazines. I will try find some. Jivesh • Talk2Me 16:32, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
You are most welcome. This is the least i can do after that you have helped me so much in the past.

(talk page stalker) Is iTunes permitted for use? I mean, Tbhotch, you might have seen my FAC. Amazon was deemed unreliable, so iTunes must be the same too, I guess. Novice7 (talk) 17:23, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
Ask me for any help. I will be very happy to help you. Jivesh • Talk2Me 18:03, 3 April 2011 (UTC)
@Novice, neither iTunes or Amazon are "unreliable", and you had to argue otherwise. Neither source is unreliable unless it has a characteristic listed here or it is blacklisted. Here, Nikki argued that Yahoo! "blog" is unreliable because of the use of the word "blog", I denoted her that this was not true at all, so you have to do two things a) Defend the article the most you can and b) Still being flexible about reviewers.
@Jivesh, thank you boy, I'll do it without any doubt. Tbhotch* ۩۞ 04:38, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Hi again. Listen, it's better you ignore User:indopug at the FA. He is being ridiculous and way too demanding. Jivesh • Talk2Me 09:06, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Hope you have read my message above. Tbhotch, i want to ask you something but i am a bit scared. Please do not get me wrong. You count a lot for me, more than you think. I mean that you are a very good friend on Wikipedia and everyone here on Wikipedia is like my second family. What i want to ask is that, are you sure Nathan vandalize your talk-page? I mean, don't you suspect someone else... Someone with whom you had a fight, other than Nathan. Please do not be angry Tbhotch. I just wanted to ask. I know you consider me as a good friend (I saw it here and i feel very happy to be in that short list) and i do not want to lose your friendship. Try to think about what i told you with a cool mind. Trust me, you are not the only one to have had problems with Nathan. I have suffered from kind of a fate (February 11, 2011 but was not so serious). I am not taking his side. I just want you both to clear your misunderstandings (if there is any). I am telling you once again my friend, i left you this message with a good intention. Try to think about it. I will wait patiently. Jivesh • Talk2Me 12:16, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
For the first point, I believe I'll request a copy-edit, could you recommend me one? I remember an user has helped you before with those things. For the second, as I said at his SPI, I like to know why an IP vandaiize my page. I immediately recognize if I already know that user, for example, if this IP starts with 86.xxx.... I know he is CharlieJS13 (talk·contribs), but this IP has nothing to do with me (apparently) until I saw his edits to Theuhohreo page. You better than no one knows that he has done nothing to no one. Peter argued he never had contact with him, but he is in the same Wikiproject that Nathan used to participate. After I saw that the IP comes from Miami, I first thought in him, but well, I was not sure until I saw that "I come from Miami Beach", and all fit. I'm not angry with this Jivesh, and in some measure an indef block (which is not the same as infinite) is excessive, but a kind of action had to be done he has a long-term sockpuppetry abuse. According to the SPI, he was caught on the IP autoblock, so, I have nothing to say about this. Tbhotch* ۩۞ 19:42, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
Okay my friend. As for the c/e, i will be happy to help and i will also recommend you User talk:Reaper Eternal. He is very kind. Jivesh • Talk2Me 09:56, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Hey, just wanted to know why There Are Rules got a C rating. (This sounds like a bitchy "This article deserves better than this!" post, but trust me, it's not.)

Hi, unless you read the sources, you won't know whether or not they have valuable information you might need, be it about the songwriting or recording or promotion of the record. It's up to you to determine if those sources have something you might need or if all there is is just miscellany--my main concern was to make sure you you can exhausted all source options before we proceed further during the FAC process.

Hi, as with the article rebetiko the same vandals/sockpuppets are constantly attacking Music of Greece, Laïkó, Zeibekiko, Çiftetelli, Skiladiko, Larissa and other Greek music articles. It get's better: After several warnings one of them(User:Plouton2 most likely a sockpuppet) made a new article (Zeimbekiko) and copy-pasted there all the previously reverted "text" from the vandalized Zeibekiko article!!! Then User:Rchard2scout came by (a "real" user, no sockpuppet) and proposed a merge of the two articles!!!!!
the users are:User:Plouton2, User:79.129.15.249, User:62.38.21.106, User:94.69.227.28 and another one was allready blocked for 24h. If you have some time or suggestions on the matter please help! thanks!

Please Help
After your latest edit's Fleetham went and deleted most of the citations and then claimed that there were no citations. This type of behavior is highly disruptive and is hostile in this case. If you view the Lanix history you can see that Fleethan has had some type of long standing disdain for this company for whatever reason and he has also gone and removed refrences sourced even from the Lanix website. Multiple users have asked him yo stop yet he continues with blatant disregard to other opinions. You can see that other users have tried with no luck to negociate with him but he refuses to accept their views. And the sources he says are illigitimate are not "weird blogs" SPK (Sputnik) is Mexico's largest and most respected electronics information network and one of the largest and most repected in latin America And if their text isnt enough proof you can simply watch the videos in their articles used in the citations which feature Lanix emlpoyees themselves stating what is also in the text.

"Halo, ummm i feel like it is angelic, you know it feels like you can see angels when you hear it and anyone, it's just like you see their face instantly when you hear it.
(Day 2)... The music video is very intimate, romantic and the house in which we are shooting is beautiful. And i am trying to make sure that we can get to the pool because i think it could be really beautiful. I have never open my eyes in the water ever in my life. I have always been afraid. Halo, it's very simple but it has a lot of strings and it also has interesting drums , ummm it is a great mixture of hip hop and R&B and it is basically saying that you know i had these walls built up about love and you completely tore that down and you know when i look at you i see your halo, it's really beautiful."

Yes, it's really me. Lol. Tbhotch, you do not have top thank me so much. Trust me, you are most welcome. I will always be happy to help, especially when it concerns Beyonce. Sorry, i do not have the location. Try to ask Adabow. Jivesh • Talk2Me 10:27, 12 April 2011 (UTC)
Not strictly a remix, but Tbhotch have you heard Love in This Club Part II? Also sampling isn't really plagarism coz the original artist must agree to the sample first. And OMG Diplo song first Legolas? I've wanted to hear what the BK vs Diplo track sounds like... and it's a "club banger"? I wouldn't expect him to produce a dancey song? Adabow (talk · contribs) 10:33, 12 April 2011 (UTC)

Protection request
I didn't notice until after you removed the attempt at protection for Canadian Pacific that I either did it wrong or don't have permission to do it. The page seems to be getting a lot of vandalism lately. As such, I would like to request protection for the page as it is a page that children may visit and material added at times has been vulgar or offensive. Thank you.

Hello Tbhotch! I've been uploading music samples for album and song articles. I think I've followed the WP:Music samples right. I just wanted to make sure. Thanks. Magiciandude (talk) 16:45, 24 April 2011 (UTC)
Gotcha! So something like this would have a proper summary to the samples right? I also that example posted on the guide was odd where it said: "16 second sample from Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower". I've added more description for the samples on Romances. Also, I don't know why it does it twice. I selected the "audio sample" from the licensing tag selection. Magiciandude (talk) 01:53, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
Well that's odd, because I haven't copy/pasted anything. What I've done is fill out the form in the template, and selected the correct licensing form. I meant to say in the earlier post that the above article is another good example, I'll use that as well. Magiciandude (talk) 02:18, 25 April 2011 (UTC)
Talk:Automobile
That was strange, I semi'd it and it obviously didn't take. I deleted it after I semi'd it, so that must have removed protection. Will wait and watch... Dreadstar☥ 18:47, 13 April 2011 (UTC)

Thank you for your huge efforts in fixing vandalism. However, I was surprised to see that you didn't completely fix the vandalism on Burj Khalifa.

Since apparently you are watching my age I'll reply here. I personally do not like to invite people to review my GANs, FLCs and FACs because it would be considered as a canvassing vote.

Real Madrid logo
Hi Tbhotch, I understand that SVG is preferred but If you go to the official website you can see the logo exactly as the version I uploaded, so this SVG version is a bad version, thanks for worry about Real Madrid logo but I think that is preferred an official version than a non-official SVG format against PNG. Also, for reasons of copyright is better a low resolution, my image complies this and is not the intention of Wikipedia to facilitate higher versions of non-free logos as SVG allows. A salomonic solution is to upload a SVG version of the image that I uploaded (you can download the EPS image at the source url that I put in the summary description: http://www.vflnet.com/infos/spain/real_madrid_cf/) but I don't know how to convert an EPS file to an SVG file, if you can do it for me, I will appreciate.

Hi, I notice you've been judiciously adding protection tags to articles when I (often) neglect to do so after protecting an article. Much appreciated!

I've removed several bits of information in the "Voting Trends and Summary" sections that I feel are unverifiable or are irrelevant to the article.

I've found an article regarding Melissa Leo's utterance of 'fuck' during her Oscar speech.[http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1658810/melissa-leo-oscars-speech.jhtml

Hi, I'm with RCP, and I couldn't help but notice the little battle you were having with 86.183.217.14 when the page Jizz (birding) appeared on my Huggle feed. With all due respect, I don't see an issue with the edit that 86.183.217.14 made. Possibly you could provide me with an explanation? Thanks Bped1985 (talk) 19:27, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
Okay, I posted my question before the IP user had posted that "I think it's funny" excuse. I fully understand now. Another question though, if you don't mind my asking, how is it that you got those warnings above this text box when someone goes to edit your talk page?

Chevy Vega RFC
This is to notify you that an RfC has been opened regarding proposed edits in Chevrolet Vega. The discussion is located here.
You star, thanks. You can work out the "For" statement via talk pages, or just be BOLD and work it out iteratively.
My thoughts are that in these respects, the Vega article should be significantly edited: it should reflect clearly the Vega's legacy, it's role in the US auto industry and it's marred track record. It should be considerably more concise. It should rely less on fan trivia and less than transparent sources. And it should include less of one editors photographs, personal vehicles and promo photos from General Motors. That's the basic thrust for me. 842U (talk) 21:30, 6 May 2011 (UTC)

Unfortunately at this time I cannot chase down a reference on the internet (my original source is from a natural world almanac), but I was able to find this picture of the Qingdai shootdown incident which shows the intruder making contact with the terrain.
I note that English is not your first language. In my tongue we have an idiom: "a picture is worth a thousand words". Perhaps this is better than a written source?
For the other incident I have nothing as yet, but will try my best to investigate this strange and troubling anomaly.

If those are the rules, no hay problema ;) Tbhotch* ۩۞ 08:04, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
Because we don't have a concrete talkpage for this review, here are my comments
*Infobox
"Madonna performing "Ray of Light", her first song to win Grammy Award, during" -> " to win the or a Grammy Award
"Expanding on the use of religious imagery ... and liberals alike." -> the whole paragraph is relevant to Madonna biography not to her "awards and nominations"
"Madonna's seventh studio album Ray of Light (1998) became one of her most critically acclaimed, recognized for its lyrical depth." -> you should mention that it was rewarded with many awards.
"Departing from Warner Bros. Records, Madonna signed an unprecedented $120 million dollar contract with Live Nation the same year." -> Irrelevant as well
" Considered to be one of the most influential women in contemporary music, Madonna has been known for continually reinventing her music and image and for retaining a standard of anonymity within the recording industry; she is recognized as an influence among numerous music artists" -> The same
"Madonna has won 217 awards from 408 nominations" -> contradicts the infobox
Awards
American Moviegoers' Awards -> Evita is linked twice
American Music Awards -> "been nominated for seventeen times" -> typo
AOL TV Viewer Awards
television -> overlinked
Madonna has won "Best TV Concert" award in 2002 -> "has won ... in 2002" grammatically incorrect
The Drowned World Tour and HBO are overlinked
Billboard -> should not those 4 awards be subsections?
Billboard Music of the '80s Poll Awards -> Into the Groove is overlinked on the table
Hollywood Walk of Fame -> in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California, United States, -> North America, America, Earth...why not simply Hollywood, California?
International Rock Awards -> International Rock Awards (1989–1991) ... Madonna has won -> Which is the chance the IRA return?
Japan Gold Disc Awards:
why the Japanese text?
True Blue and Like a Prayer are overlinked
Juno Awards -> "won two of which" -> Is this correct?
MTV awards -> as Billboard
MTV Video Music Awards -> "Like a Virgin", "Express Yourself" are overlinked
MTV Artist of the Decade -> why are you mentioning the catfight?
MVPA Awards -> and so I wonder: Would Madonna be candidate to "Best Cinematography", "Best Special Effects" and "Best Make-Up", those awards go to the crew, and she was not part of it, was she?
UK Music Hall of Fame -> "along with The Beatles, Elvis Presley, Bob Marley and U2" -> relevance?
My main concern here is, as you know, that it is probably incomplete. Madonna has not won <500 awards in >20 years. Also, some of the awards listed here are not awards (e.g. Top Selling Female Rock Artist of the 20th Century), they are recognitions. Unless the page is called: "List of awards, nominations and recognitions received by Madonna" they should be removed.
Check the overlinking and the score on the infobox as well. Those are my comments, I hope they help you. Tbhotch* ۩۞ 07:04, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

Exactly. Plus it's way less work for you. I don' think it's bad faith -- WP is voluntary and you're under no obligation to deal with anyone you don't want to. Gerardw (talk) 20:31, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
Gerardw: How do you know your watching really is perfect? :) A Quest For Knowledge (talk) 20:17, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
Well, it must be, 'cause Tbhotch replied here, right? Gerardw (talk) 20:31, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
Extranjera
Hey, I just saw you left a comment on Talk:Extranjera. Do you know how it's being released now? It's going to be a 14-song CD and a DVD, but 7 of the songs are the ones from Extranjera: Primera Parte. What do you think? -- ipodnano05 * leave@message 20:10, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
As of right now, it hasn't been released yet, but it's already official. If everything goes according to the plans, what should be done? -- ipodnano05 * leave@message 20:28, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
And would the Extranjera: Segunda Parte infobox have it as a studio album. Also, in the Harry Potter soundtracks, I only think they are merged for now because little is known about the second part. A lot more is known for the second part of Extranjera. -- ipodnano05 * leave@message 20:48, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
O.K. That's the option that makes the most sense to me, but which artwork would be in the main cover? The first or second part? -- ipodnano05 * leave@message 20:58, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
O.K. Great, which was goes first and which one goes as an alternate cover? -- ipodnano05 * leave@message 21:12, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
Also, I think it depends on whether it charts separately or as one on charts. If it charts separately, I think it'd be best to split the articles. If not, then one should suffice. -- ipodnano05 * leave@message 22:01, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
We'll just have to wait and see. Thank you so much. -- ipodnano05 * leave@message 23:51, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
Thanks!
It would seem that I have fallen within the sights of an immature adolescent with far too much time on his hands and a serious need for attention (or perhaps mental evaluation). I've semi-protected my talk page for now, but if you happen to stumble across any future idiocy, do feel free to revert it. Many, many thanks for the assist.

surprising
I'm surprised you are not an admin yet. Crazymonkey1123 (Jacob) T or M/Sign mine 05:14, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
A big club of people that think you should be an admin = a lot of support !votes in a RfA. Crazymonkey1123 (Jacob) T or M/Sign mine 05:18, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
Congrats. You have about 3.3 centijimbos. Crazymonkey1123 (Jacob) T or M/Sign mine 05:26, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
Content dispute in Kutner page
Hi. Please be civil! Why are you terrorising me and posting intimidating messages? How is my edit to the lead not legitimate. The information is correct, and in fact it is supported by references provided. It was also present in the article on the other place, but is being censored out of the lead. Please stop harrasing me! Also, you delete my comment about CONTENT of the article from the talk page. That is borderline vandalism and abuse of other editors!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.198.220.89 (talk) 06:29, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
There are problems with your behavior. The edits are in no way disruptive, nor are they defamatory (perhaps you have problems with English, but are blinded by your arrogance)! The issue is if to mention this in the lead, as all these things are already mentioned in the article. If you could read, you could check it yuorself, instead of threatening people here!!! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.198.220.89 (talk) 06:33, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
Please move your issues with lead to the Kutner page to the relevant talk page, that you keep deleting from. Please NOTE that removing content from the TALK page, which is for discussion of disputes and resolution of issues like the one we obviously have with Kutner page lead, is far from civil and constructive behavior. It will not be resolved by you simply deleting the relevant page of TALK page, that you disagree with. This is borderline vandalism and WILL be reported to admin, if you keep trying to delete my part of discussion. Instead, put your issues on the talk page, not remove it from it! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.198.220.89 (talk) 06:40, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
Hello. As you noted in your comment on 'requests for page protection', you are getting close to a 3RR violation on Lawrence Kutner. My suggestion would be to back off editing the page for a bit. Try to work things out through discussion. If that means the page is 'wrong' or 'biased' for a few days it isn't likely to be the end of the world. Barring some sort of potential legal action over the content of the page you usually shouldn't worry about it. Someone else is bound to come along and correct it OR in many cases the argumentative user will move on after a few days and things can be straightened out then. --CBD 15:39, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
TGilmour GANs
Hey, I noticed you quick-failed a couple of TGilmour's good article nominations on articles he had nothing to do with. I was wondering can you please quick-fail his good article nomination of Eden Hazard, as well. I have spent a lot of time editing the article and, while it is very informative, I don't think it is polished enough to become a good article yet. Thanks. — JSRant Away 23:57, 26 May 2011 (UTC)
Capitalization and punctuation
First of all, commas and other forms of punctuation are included in quoted text, regardless of whether they are included in the original text. Trust me, people can tell if the song has a comma in the title or not. I'd just like Wikipedia articles to be more grammatically correct.
Second, we don't have to use the word "number" all the time to denote a song's position on the charts. Feel free to check out other Wikipedia articles on musicians to confirm this. We also tend to capitalize the first letters of terms that denote chart positions, such as "number one" and "top five." Again, you can confirm this by reading Wikipedia articles or any other piece of writing that discusses songs.
Wait, so if Wikipedia doesn't use hashtags, then how come the page on Reba McEntire, which just happens to be a "good article," has a bunch of them in it? --DorkyA.N. (talk) 18:55, 30 May 2011 (UTC)
Email
Hello, Tbhotch. Please check your email; you've got mail! It may take a few minutes from the time the email is sent for it to show up in your inbox. You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{You've got mail}} or {{ygm}} template.
Thank you for figuring out the proper way to do it. And sorry for copyvio split. There was no edit conflict I understood what your intention was right way and it was definitely the more proper way for part one. Now I just got to figure out how to fix part two. Jhenderson777 14:36, 31 May 2011 (UTC)
