I am impressed by your creation and contributions to the article Psycho shower scene, and believe it is well-done for you to nominate it for status. The main thing you need to do is to check for each claim to be properly sourced. - RTSthestardust (talk) 04:47, 2 January 2026 (UTC)

Thank you so much! I will absolutely do that, and I want to see if I can expand it even more as I do so. Watagwaan (talk) 17:58, 2 January 2026 (UTC)

Hello!
Concerning this edit: . Why did you change "singer, lyricist" to "singer-songwriter"? It was clearly stated that she was a "singer and lyricist" and thus did not compose her own songs. And why did you combine together the first two paragraphs? The second one started with "Born and raised in Sapporo, Japan" and clearly meant to be standalone. Your version was a mess.
And didn't you notice it was a good article? Some effort was definitely put into writing the lead. --Moscow Connection (talk) 08:40, 7 January 2026 (UTC)

Hello! My apologies, it seemed like the lead was slightly outdated (it didn't mention further albums) and I made a mistake with "lyricist" it seems, I assumed it could be replaced with just "songwriter". Thanks for bringing it to my attention! Hope you're well. Watagwaan (talk) 13:25, 7 January 2026 (UTC)

You are welcome to put back everything else you added. (Update: I've reverted the second paragraph to your version. Not sure about the facts presented, but you definitely made it a more fluent read.) --Moscow Connection (talk) 13:41, 7 January 2026 (UTC)

What I mean by "facts" is that Japanese Wikipedia doesn't treat I've Sound as a musical group, but rather as a musical production team. The author of this Englsih-language article is Narutolovehinata5, maybe he can tweak the lead a bit. (First she released a song, then a split single, then a solo single. Kind of confusing...) --Moscow Connection (talk) 13:59, 7 January 2026 (UTC)

I'm not really sure what to do here anymore (I'm on indefinite hiatus from working on her article and don't have plans on editing it again), but as far as I can tell, "singer-songwriter" is still correct. Songwriter can mean composer or lyricist: it is true that she did not composer her own songs, only that she wrote the lyrics, but "songwriter" should still be correct in this case. Narutolovehinata5 (talk · contributions) 14:04, 7 January 2026 (UTC)

No hard feelings about the lead, but disaree. Its very late now and have to sleep; can we chat about the propose reorg tomorrow, outside of the glare of the FAC. Best, and here is a tune , zzz Ceoil (talk) 03:33, 17 January 2026 (UTC)

DAMN This song threw me for a loop! Embrace the noise!! Also no worries, we can talk about the lead when you're ready! Watagwaan (talk) 17:18, 17 January 2026 (UTC)

@Ceoil how's this for a lead?

Megan Martha White (born December 10, 1974) is an American musician who was the drummer and occasional vocalist of the rock duo the White Stripes. She is a key artist of the 2000s indie and garage rock movements, noted for her minimalist drumming style and reserved public persona. The White Stripes split up in 2011 after which she ceased performing. Her last media appearance was in 2009, and she has not been active in the music industry since.

Born and raised in Grosse Pointe Farms, Michigan, White met Jack Gillis in the early 1990s and the two married in 1996, with Jack taking her surname. She began playing the drums in 1997 and formed the White Stripes with Jack that year. They divorced in 2000 but continued performing at her insistence, presenting themselves to the music press as siblings. Their 2001 breakthrough album, White Blood Cells, brought them international fame. This, along with the band's next three albums, established White as a key artist of the decade's rock revival. White also had a short acting and modeling career, appearing in the 2003 film Coffee and Cigarettes and a 2006 episode of The Simpsons. She was married to Jackson Smith from 2009 to 2013.

Her drumming style polarized critics at first but has since become highly regarded. She has maintained an elusive media image and has given very few interviews, which she puts down to shyness and a reclusive nature. With the White Stripes, she won six Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2025. Publications such as NME and Rolling Stone rank her among the greatest drummers in history. Watagwaan (talk) 19:46, 17 January 2026 (UTC)

Like that :) Here is the weirdist thing that have been listening to recently. Ceoil (talk) 20:27, 17 January 2026 (UTC)

You sent me this one earlier! It's definitely odd but in a good way. It's really long though HAHA Watagwaan (talk) 20:54, 17 January 2026 (UTC)

Nikkimaria is the sharpest source editor we have, so would do everything she says!!! ps, from one drummer to another Ceoil (talk) 21:27, 25 January 2026 (UTC)

I'll go through as much as I can next time I can, I suspect it'll take a while. Also, this is DOPE! Never saw the drums laid out for this song. Watagwaan (talk) 23:00, 25 January 2026 (UTC)

@Ceoil Seems like the Nikkimaria oppose was enough to stop the whole discussion. It's a bit disheartening, as for the most part it was a few extraneous sources or missed ones. Another issue may be that I didn't start the article from scratch. Nonetheless, I want to thank you for your help with the article and more! I hope we can keep collaborating here, you're pretty neat. Here's another GA I did recently, though! I think I'm improving slowly but surely. Watagwaan (talk) 17:39, 29 January 2026 (UTC)

Nikkimaria is about as heavyweight on FAC as it goes and gave clear direction for necessary changes for her to support. It's probably my fault more than yours that the issues weren't resolved in the timeline, sorry. Although Gog failed "this" nom, he did encourage "a thorough trawl through the article bearing in mind the comments of all of the reviewers, followed by a solid PR before renominating", ie he wants to see you back with a second FA nom when the article is ready and will readily be supported. I wouldn't feel disheartened or hard done by the archiving; the culture at FAC does like first-time nominators who have the guts to come back again, with issues taken on board and resolved. People who are archived on first on first nom but who work through isses and suceed on second nom are very much appreciated for resilience. Ceoil (talk) 23:41, 30 January 2026 (UTC)

also, I thinkyou were done by in the end by including too many sources, the tail end of which are unreliable by wiki standards. Trim there, and it will go a long way towards assuaging NM. Ceoil (talk) 23:45, 30 January 2026 (UTC)

Thank you so much! Of course, I want to eventually see this featured and I won't let it deter me! Watagwaan (talk) 01:24, 31 January 2026 (UTC)

You should start a new section on the talk page with bullets on Nikki's unresolved last points, work through them, and then do one more PR. I'll keep an eye. Ceoil (talk) 03:32, 31 January 2026 (UTC)

Could you point me specifically towards which ones to copy paste? Sorry if it's obvious, there's just a lot of text and clutter on the page now. :( Watagwaan (talk) 04:08, 31 January 2026 (UTC)

	The Music Barnstar
	This barnstar is awarded to Watagwaan for excellent work on the Meg White article. Keep it up! Noleander (talk) 18:16, 29 January 2026 (UTC)

Seconded. Its a great article to be proud of nonetheless.Ceoil (talk) 20:55, 30 January 2026 (UTC)

Thank you @Ceoil and @Noleander for your help and recognition! It means the world to me, even if we never made it to featured status. Hopefully in the future! Watagwaan (talk) 21:17, 30 January 2026 (UTC)

"I get knocked down but I get up again" :) Looking to trim Nikki's open issues on the article talk, but distracted today. Ceoil (talk) 10:17, 31 January 2026 (UTC)

The GA nom for Part Time Punks has been open for a few months with no takers. If you would like to switch sides and tear my effort apart, that would be just great. Here is an equally basic and simple tune in return.Ceoil (talk) 05:51, 22 February 2026 (UTC)

ERIC CLAPTON!! Also, I'll try to look at this sometime in the next week or two @Ceoil! I can't promise I'll be amazing but I'll do what I can. I love post-punk and rock, especially from the 1970s. Watagwaan (talk) 06:27, 22 February 2026 (UTC)

Its your chance to get down and destroy me. Ceoil (talk) 07:25, 22 February 2026 (UTC)

@Ceoil What's the status on being a punk part-time? Watagwaan (talk) 17:43, 5 March 2026 (UTC)

Hi Watagwaan, have found new bits and pieces to add, planning to finish out this weekend; doing routine maintenance work on older articles this evening. Ceoil (talk) 22:32, 5 March 2026 (UTC)

No worries! Let me know when :D Watagwaan (talk) 22:43, 5 March 2026 (UTC)

It's somewhat late and I'd decided to look over the YYYs page and noticed you popped up a lot, and it's simply just amazing!! I've been doing work on the Meet Me in the Bathroom page for over a year now, if you wanted to add anything there! Keep up the awesome work! Itsirlpidge (talk) 04:00, 14 March 2026 (UTC)

Hi Itsirlpidge! Aw, thank you so much for your kind words! Sincerely this made my day ❤️ Your work on the Meet Me in the Bathroom article is also so important and I'm glad that book and film adaptation are given more attention! I'll try to help where I can but honestly, you're a rockstar! Watagwaan (talk) 15:32, 14 March 2026 (UTC)

I sort of dissed on the Yeahs GA page, but don't take to heart - with some refocusing it will hopefully pass. Ceoil (talk) 23:58, 5 April 2026 (UTC)

As an olive branch, here is a not so dissimilar tune Ceoil (talk) 00:02, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

@Ceoil no worries, I know it isn't personal! I'll see what I can do, admittedly it was easier to write about the production of the EP, Show Your Bones and It's Blitz! because those had actual information about their production. Is this what you meant?

Ooh, they covered cigarette in your bed! These guys are pretty good. Watagwaan (talk) 10:49, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

Yes they are great!!! Re YYYs...I would spend time copying stuff over from the album, EP and single articles to flesh out the page. The people who read the page probably want to read about the music rather than the accolades. Best. Ceoil (talk) 11:25, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

Got it! I'm gonna do what I can to expand those on my break as ideas have already popped into my head. I will say, though, that it's a little harder to do for Mosquito and Cool It Down, because only so much information was given about these and especially now in the 2020s, I feel like learning about an artist's production process is not nearly as fleshy as it was in the 2000s. For lack of a better term. @Ceoil Watagwaan (talk) 11:27, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

@Ceoil would you look at the formation/Fever to Tell section now and tell me what you think? I believe this is what you meant. Watagwaan (talk) 11:47, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

Yeah, thats exactly what I meant. More please. Ceoil (talk) 12:09, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

THIS ARTICLE IS GONNA BE LIT. Also I wanted to mention @Ceoil that sometime soon I will deepdive the Meg White article again because I have been re-determined (not a word but it is now) to get it to FA. Mark my damn words. Watagwaan (talk) 12:22, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

I would be trilled to see you take the Meg article further. More work needed in between, but do think you have a much better grasp of FAC than you did then vs now, especially wrt sources, which was what tanked it first time around. Ceoil (talk) 13:22, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

@Ceoil I trimmed a bit, I feel like it's less excessive in the sales bit but also I think I covered everything I could with readily available sources/"Meet Me in the Bathroom" about the production of their albums. Is this any better? Watagwaan (talk) 17:47, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

You rock and nice edit tks. I know I'm being hard ass, but from the sub-article, the most interesting statement is "the rock band ESG served as a primary influence for the EP, with the band attempting to recreate their sound "with guitar instead of bass.[10] And I wonder how much more insight there is from critics on stuff like this. Ceoil (talk) 17:55, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

You aren't being a hard-ass. Also thank you! The thing is that was because there were a surprising amount of interviews/cover stories that said different things like this during their rock-era, but afterwards, when they shifted to dance music, it's like any info regarding their influences and specific goals like that weren't said. If that makes sense @Ceoil. Watagwaan (talk) 18:11, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

No, I don't really get what you are saying, but I would love to have it explained in the article how they switched to no bass player (a magical idea best seen in Y control if you ask me), how that worked and then why the pivot toward dance music. Ceoil (talk) 18:15, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

OH okay @Ceoil

When it comes to the pivot towards dance music, I couldn't find an exact answer or interview regarding it, but I think the user could infer from the "reinventing" sentences and what's said about the production of Show Your Bones that they don't like sticking to one specific sound. As for the lack of bass, I couldn't find a clear source or answer that suggested it was anyone else but Zinner who played on the studio recording. Their live performances were bassless, and they never really had a bass player; Fever to Tell seems like the one exception studio-wise. Watagwaan (talk) 18:22, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

The general consensus seems to be that Zinner played every guitar on Fever to Tell, which under that umbrella term would include bass. I added a sentence to clarify that and some kind of source discussing it. Watagwaan (talk) 18:49, 6 April 2026 (UTC)

Now very clear, thank you! Ceoil (talk) 00:24, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

Cool! So @Ceoil what do you think now? Watagwaan (talk) 00:44, 7 April 2026 (UTC)

You are really wanting "From left to right: Jack White and Meg White." to appear in infobox pic caption? One is a guy, the other is a girl...just list them in order, and don't insult the intelligence of our readers. Marcus Markup (talk) 20:16, 13 April 2026 (UTC)
