Hi IndianBio, if you have time I was wondering whether you could give feedback at this PR. If you don't have time, no worries. Thanks! Moisejp (talk) 17:22, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- I would be glad to do that. :) —IB [ Poke ] 18:04, 19 March 2016 (UTC)
- Hi IndianBio, how are you? I hope you are doing great. About Title TK, would you still be interested in reviewing it for its PR? If you do have time, I'd be really grateful! Thanks, Moisejp (talk) 03:41, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

- Hi @Moisejp:, I'm so so sorry, I got sidetracked. I will do it now. —IB [ Poke ] 08:42, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
Please be sure you are reporting vandalism
Re your recent post to WP:AIV [1] on IP 84.13.135.249 (talk · contribs): please be sure you are making accurate reports of vandalism. While you say "vandalism after final warning", the IP only has one warning from ten years ago (2006), so that is completely false, or disingenuous at best. The five edits you must be referring to are all additions to music genres. While there are genre warriors out there, and many are disruptive, the edits are not vandalism. Please consult the definition used at Wikipedia (WP:VANDALISM). False or exaggerated reports waste admins' time, and erode their confidence that WP:AIV is a worthwhile board to check when looking for things that need admin attention. Thank you. Willondon (talk) 12:26, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
- Willondon, that is an IP from banned User:CharlieJS13, I don't need to make warning templates on his page to report him. —IB [ Poke ] 12:47, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
- I saw the WP:LTA reference in your report. The IP has only two edits from Dec 2006 (the edits that connected it to account User:CharlieJS13 presumably), then five edits from this month, ten years later. I don't see how you can still connect that IP to the banned account. In any case, even if that means you don't need to post warning templates before reporting, you shouldn't be saying "vandalism after final warning" in your report. A brief glance at the IPs talk/contribs jumps to the conclusion "false or exaggerated report". Administrators volunteer their precious time, and decide for themselves what issues they will pay attention to. So again, it's important to reserve WP:AIV for only blatant cases of vandalism, so that admins don't start to ignore it as a pit of boys crying wolf. I hope you can appreciate my point of view. Genre warriors are frequently disruptive and frustrating. I'm not accusing you of being wrong, just injudicious. Willondon (talk) 13:01, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
- P.S. I saw your note at WP:AIV about IP 92.5.76.227. This is further evidence that you are right. But I'm suggesting that your report of WP:LTA might be more appropriate at WP:ANI, and that the description you gave at WP:AIV could be seen as misleading. I do my best to preserve WP:AIV as a place to report clear cut cases of vandalism that require little investigation or judgement on the admin's part. The easier their job is at WP:AIV, the more they'll visit. Willondon (talk) 13:11, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
- I understand your concern now and acknowledge it and will keep it in mind. —IB [ Poke ] 13:13, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
- No problem. I don't mind you deleting those references, just I think it makes sense to keep the one that showed the debut (in the top 50) position. I only added those references to the article because I saw that the debut position listed was incorrect, and thought I would need some evidence to show that it was.Nqr9 (talk) 23:16, 24 March 2016 (UTC)
Madonna Article
Hi. I am wondering if you have ever been to the United States or know anything about the people and the topics that you edit on Wikipedia? It is a valid question since you seem very active in some areas where you would otherwise be entirely unfamiliar... Please let me know if you were in New York City in the 1970s or 1980s, perhaps? I understand that you may have an obsession with Madonna, so I am trying to ascertain if this emanates from a virtual reality or a genuine familiarity... Also, is your concept of Madonna based on perceptions from India or does it have any connection at all to the U.S., which is her place of origin? Thanks... Stevenmitchell (talk) 04:58, 4 April 2016 (UTC)
- Hi, please email me since I do not like to discuss it here in an open forum. Thanks for your interest and appreciate the time to write a wonderful message :) —IB [ Poke ] 08:47, 4 April 2016 (UTC)

Madonna sandbox, pics and infobox
Hey! How R u!! It was so awesome to come up with those Tears of a Clown Pictures wasn't it? I also wanted to ask you, I began working on this expansion :D, can I count with your help?? Also, regarding the neverending Madonna infobox picture, the same user that owns the tears of a clown pictures on flickr, uploaded some great pics from the final Australian shows (March 2016) Now we can't use the clown pictures, as Madonna is in disguise on those. But I think one of these 4 could work if cropped correctly. What do you think??
--Chrishm21 (talk) 16:34, 8 April 2016 (UTC)
- I think we can use the fourth image, I really like it, you can take that image to the graphics lab and ask them that you wanna use it as infobox image so they would do the necessary corrections. —IB [ Poke ] 08:08, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
Madonna
Look!!!!! 1 :D Can we use it??? Or do we have to go do a vote on the talk page?? --Chrishm21 (talk) 18:10, 9 April 2016 (UTC)
DYK for Applause (Lady Gaga song)
|
On 11 April 2016, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Applause (Lady Gaga song), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that according to the Official Charts Company, Lady Gaga's song "Applause" sold over 10,000 copies within a few hours in the UK? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Applause (Lady Gaga song). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, daily totals), and it may be added to the statistics page if the total is over 5,000. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page. |

- Could you take care of comments by Tomica in Wikipedia:Peer review/Lady Gaga/archive4? ツ FrB.TG (talk) 16:05, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- I was waiting for him to complete his review actually. —IB [ Poke ] 20:23, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- Perhaps he'd forgotten to complete or like you he was waiting for us to first resolve themfollowed by more of his comments? ツ FrB.TG (talk) 20:36, 11 April 2016 (UTC)
- I have just asked him. Let's see what's happening. GagaNutellatalk 02:06, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- IB, he has replied. He is very busy right now, so we might resolve those points. I have read his review, the only thing I don't agree is the first topic, the rest is fine. Will you fix them? GagaNutellatalk 17:29, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- GagaN, okay give me 2/3 days I will work on it. Just finishing off a Madonna article now. —IB [ Poke ] 20:43, 12 April 2016 (UTC)
- Take your time, we don't need to rush. I just wanted to explain what was going on. Good luck on M's article. GagaNutellatalk 20:48, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

Take a Bow
Hey how r u! I will work on the 'live performance' section of Take a Bow if that's alright with you :) --Chrishm21 (talk) 17:06, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Please work on your sandbox and later I will merge. I open the whole article and edit for a long time Chrishm21. —IB [ Poke ] 17:24, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Sure thing! :D --Chrishm21 (talk) 17:26, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
- Here it is, but l think we should merge it with the covers section. I tried expanding that one but couldn't find appropriate sources but discogs and from what l remember, that one's not a reliable source.--Chrishm21 (talk) 17:33, 14 April 2016 (UTC)
