DYK for Auld Lang Syne (The New Year's Anthem)

On 22 August 2015, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Auld Lang Syne (The New Year's Anthem), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Mariah Carey's song "Auld Lang Syne (The New Year's Anthem)" is a house music version of the original poem? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Auld Lang Syne (The New Year's Anthem). You are welcome to check how many page hits the article got while on the front page (here's how, live views, 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.

GA reassessments

Hey Aaron, can you take a look at Alphastates and Chrome Division, which I nominated for delisting (links here and here)? I think these are way under the GA criteria, and any other opinions are welcomed. Cheers.--Retrohead (talk) 23:16, 22 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Yes sure. — Calvin999 12:33, 23 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Norodom Chakrapong

Thanks! Let me know if you would like me to review any articles that you might personally have put up like GA nominations on your side. (I have not committed to playing the role of a GA reviewer so far). I understand that you have volunteered to review another nomination, Norodom Sihanouk, feel free to point out areas that needs improvements or redress. Mr Tan (talk) 10:42, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. You're welcome. I do have some articles nominated in the Music category, but I can't ask you to undertake any as that is canvassing for reviewers, and I didn't review yours to get one back in return. If you have never reviewed an article, it would perhaps be good for you to do so, as it also gives you a greater understanding of how to prepare a nomination of your own. But make sure you check any nominations you review against the GA criteria. — Calvin999 10:50, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I"ll take a look at some of your song/album-based articles that have passed GAs to use as a benchmark, before I think of taking up a song GA review. I noted that you have many nominations from this topic. I love to help, but I"ll have to think carefully about it before taking one because my expertise and passion is not in the field of popular arts and music. I have briefly gone through 2 or 3 articles, but am not sure what to comment as of now. I will ping you should I take up one of your GAs in future... :) .... Mr Tan (talk) 11:17, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. GA criteria applies to all topics. I review nominations from Music to politics to literature. — Calvin999 11:18, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Serbia-United States relations

Hi there,

Sorry for the delays on working on the article. I understand if there is a deadline or if I need to go through any procedure again on determining the article's status as a good article. I have been busy and I just get on whenever I have down time, so I am not exactly sure when I will be done with going through with all your recommendations but I will keep getting back to it and hopefully by next week I will have been done. But I'll still get more done today though. Zastavafan76 (talk) 19:20, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Man Down (song)

Didn't get your email until after the FAC was archived; I'm just home from almost a week in hospital for surgery, but I copyedited it as best I could and if it's not good enough it's not good enough. All the best, Miniapolis 20:17, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I meant the sections I had added within the last week that weren't there before. Hope you're okay. — Calvin999 22:35, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry for the misunderstanding, and thanks for the good wishes. At my age you don't bounce back from small-intestine surgery, but I overheard being referred to as a "tough old bird" more than once and hope to be around a bit longer :-). All the best, Miniapolis 13:51, 25 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

FLC

As you're someone who's experienced with getting "List of songs..." articles up to FL standard, I'd appreciate any comments you could leave at Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of songs recorded by Azealia Banks/archive1. Thanks! Azealia911 _talk 21:24, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Well at least there's one type of Featured process people think I'm experienced at! Haha. Also, I replied to your comments on my FLC. — Calvin999 22:36, 24 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Norodom Sihanouk

It's ok--its fine for you to take some time to point out suggestions, as I can only drop by Wiki for short periods of time. So long as the GA doesn't lie dormant for, like half a year without notification, I'm ok :) I've been busy recently anyway.... Mr Tan (talk) 09:55, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Delayed GA

It hasn't even been a full 7 days and I haven't been active because I have real-life things to do at times. Both articles are now fixed and touched up. So it should be okay to pass them and such, I have been really slammed and have been full with work. Sparing even a few moments here and there is only something I get to do on my weekends now. Thanks for reviewing and I hope you will pass them now. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 15:26, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
