Hi, not to be greedy or anything but I always have the tendency to address all concerns right away lmao. For several current inputs in Lorde FAC, I have addressed quite a few, but I think I should let you contribute your insights as well. P.s. given the current situation I think we can totally promote the article to FA :) — HĐ (talk) 03:24, 19 February 2019 (UTC)
I think we can add that comment within the Career section, but not necessarily Public Image. The comments help readers understand why veterans hold Lorde in high regards and compensate the flow, too, but separating the comments into Public Image may break the flow I'm afraid. — HĐ (talk) 03:34, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
Yeah I'm aware of that. But if the article suffers from continuous vandalism then a subsequent protection shall be possible.
Regarding Lorde's influences: since Lorde has no formative influence (she hardly listened to Prince/David Bowie [1], so their deaths may have influenced Melodrama, but not their styles / Robyn is only mentioned once), I think we can either omit pictures or add someone that Lorde has constantly mentioned i.e. Kanye (she covered his songs, "Bravado" was inspired by him etc.) or Frank Ocean (his style influenced the whole Melodrama structures); or even lyrical influences. Bowie pic seems biased to me atm. — HĐ (talk) 08:38, 20 February 2019 (UTC)
I understand what you said, but the interview implies that Maclachlan and Lorde were in full control of their decisions, so I don't think Machlachlan had to negotiate with Universal NZ to come up with a deal whatsoever. The reviewer wanted clarifications on the connection between 60,000 free downloads and UMG commercially releasing the EP, so I think that should be done by now. For the wording I'm waiting further reviews from that reviewer. — HĐ (talk) 02:02, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
The article Heartlines you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold .

--Russthehead (talk) 14:01, 23 March 2019 (UTC)(talk) 13:59, 23 March 2019 (UTC) Hi. I was recently attempting to contribute edits to this article in good faith, and having first hand evidence through personal experience. As first hand experience does not count as evidence, I added citations from setlist.fm listings, which you then removed. Having witnessed firsthand two gigs at the BBC and O2 where the said Lorde version was used as I stated, I sought to add further evidence such as a journalist article and a YouTube video. I understand that the YouTube may ultimately not be suitable for inclusion but added it as incontrovertible evidence for other editors that Tears for Fears absolutely do use the Lorde version without any doubt whatsoever, and that I am not in any way inventing a story for whatever reason. I had hoped that although the YouTube link may be removed by other editors, this would at least be considered the proof that it most certainly is, and therefore the remainder of my edits and citations may remain in situ. However, I see once again that all of my contributions have been removed, and that you have commented 'First of all, stop reverting my edits. None of the sources you used are reliable...'. This leads me to question, A) Are you a general member of the public or an employee of Wikipedia, because you seem to deem yourself of considerable importance and stature such that simple respectful language does not apply; and B) Given such requirements for evidence, you may wish to proceed in taking down some many billions of notes and citations which however suggestive are not anything as clear as proof - first-hand evidence from the source does not necessarily constitute proof as opinions, accounts, and statements not only often change with time but may be insincere at any point. I unfortunately get the impression that for you, truth is inconsequential, whereas a sense of power is incredibly important indeed. I am simply speaking from my humble perspective in the hope of obtaining a clearer understanding and preventing me from wasting my time in future in endeavours to distribute facts that are likely to be of interest. I am writing this to highlight how events have appeared to me and simply contact you directly to highlight how your interactions come across. I intend no offence whatsoever; I am simply communicating my irritation. We should all be open to criticism use this as a doorway to open and honest discussion. I would be thankful for any clarification you can offer. --Russthehead (talk) 14:03, 23 March 2019 (UTC)

To Whom it May Concern:
Ribs by Lorde is in E major, not in A flat major. The sheet music on musicnotes.com is incorrect and the website in question is an unreliable source, as any composer can upload their arrangements to said website. I made this change to E major on the 22nd of April and included what citations I could find (which are admittedly as unreliable, as finding a source for ANY of this information is difficult), but I can confirm, as someone with perfect pitch who has done a harmonic analysis of the music, that the song is in E major. I am formally requesting that it be changed back to the information I have provided, as the information currently listed is incorrect. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.114.124.161 (talk) 03:20, 7 June 2020 (UTC)
Hello. Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia.
When editing Wikipedia, there is a field labeled "Edit summary" below the main edit box. It looks like this:
Edit summary (Briefly describe your changes)
I noticed your recent edit to The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1 (soundtrack) does not have an edit summary. Please be sure to provide a summary of every edit you make, even if you write only the briefest of summaries. The summaries are very helpful to people browsing an article's history.
Edit summary content is visible in:
Please use the edit summary to explain your reasoning for the edit, or a summary of what the edit changes. With a Wikipedia account you can give yourself a reminder to add an edit summary by setting Preferences → Editing → Prompt me when entering a blank edit summary. Thanks!

Hello, how have you been doing? It's been quite a time since we collaborated on Lorde, and I'm thinking if you wanna collab again? I'm rather busy these days, so I'm thinking of getting Green Light (Lorde song) to FA? The article is already in good shape and it needs just a little more tweaking.

... on the good topic promotion. Well done! ---Another Believer (Talk) 03:22, 19 October 2020 (UTC)
I think I had mentioned about WP:NOTBROKEN (do not target the New Zealand Music Award as the Aotearoa Music Awards) given the award name when the album was released was the former. This may be subjective but some sentences that you rewrote are rather clunky i.e. Lorde attempted to depart from
can be just "Lorde departed from". I'm not sure if "maximalist" is an objective description of the production or a comparative statement to the minimalist of Pure Heroine, so please consider this with care. Melodrama received widespread acclaim from contemporary critics, many of whom lauded Lorde's songwriting and its production
I think it's better to include why specifically did critics praise this album, and "Lorde's songwriting and its production" is too general. HĐ (talk) 13:28, 20 October 2020 (UTC)
The album received widespread critical acclaimbut as long as the previous paragraphs discuss the album's production and lyrics
some critics described its production as maximalistwould be a better conveyance. HĐ (talk) 10:56, 21 October 2020 (UTC)
Initially inspired by her disillusionment with fame? Thanks for citing the interview anyways. I didn't see it in the prose so I was completely unaware of this. HĐ (talk) 10:18, 22 October 2020 (UTC)

The article Going South (book) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
Seems a bit too far off to presume WP:GNG.
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the ((proposed deletion/dated))
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing ((proposed deletion/dated))
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Lettlerhello • contribs 15:08, 25 November 2020 (UTC)

Hi, this in your edit didn't make sense: "Written in the key of G major in Mixolydian mode"
Where did you get this from? The statement not only doesn't match with the reference you added, but also contradicts itself. Mixolydian mode is, by definition, neither major nor minor. Also, that source doesn't seem to say anything about tempo as I look. — Smjg (talk) 21:20, 1 January 2021 (UTC)
Hey De88, you have my revision yesterday and only said that the quotes that I cited "have nothing to do with Lorde's influence". But I just want to tell you that Lorde indeed did cite Taylor Swift as one of her influence, maybe not on her music, but definitely as a person. I don't know if you read the quotes that I cited yet but one quote means Lorde said "Taylor introduced her and brought her to the world of amazing friendships and taught her to be friends with them." And the second quote means Lorde said she looks up to Taylor whenever she struggles at something. She considers Swift as an influence who she looks up to, so that's definitely an influence. I hope that next time if you try to undo my revision, please notice me first and explain thoroughly. Thanks, ADTN1210 (talk) 12:05, 22 April 2021 (UTC)

A tag has been placed on File:Lorde - Solar Power (Artwork).jpg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image is an unused duplicate or lower-quality copy of another file on Wikipedia having the same file format, and all inward links have been updated.
If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.
