Another videography from me and Snuggums. I have modeled the list based on Katy Perry videography, an FL I wrote with the help of the aforementioned user. A thanks to the user IndianBio, who has contributed to the article. I reckon we are close to the six FL criteria, but, as always, thanks to those of you, who comment, support, or even oppose. -- Frankie talk 18:05, 28 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Sources seem to check out, but I have slight reservations about the use of Idolator. The Wikipedian Penguin 16:05, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

It is listed as a reliable source under WP:ALBUM/SOURCES. Just so you know. Snuggums (talk / edits) 16:50, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
It's good all day long for GAs, but what makes it a high quality reliable source? The Wikipedian Penguin 17:02, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Wikipedian Penguin All replaced. Thank you. -- Frankie talk 18:07, 31 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments Looks good overall. These are my edits; please revert if you don't agree with them.
  • Might be worth listing "Paparazzi" along with "Just Dance" and "Poker Face" in the second sentence – you can't necessarily assume that a reader will already know that the track is a single from The Fame.
  • "committed by Gaga" -> I'm being a little pernickety here, but this makes it seem like she's portraying a fictionalised version of herself in the video, even though the lead also says that the video is a continuation of the one for Paparazzi, where she played a doomed starlet.
  • Why the nbsps in the key for the Television table?
  • A Very Gaga Thanksgiving, The Simpsons and The Sopranos need to sort under V and S.
  • The O2 Arena and "The Edge of Glory" need to sort under O and E respectively.
  • Where is the "How Lady Gaga Keeps Intouch With Her Fans" title sourced from? I can't see it in the Billboard reference.
  • No source available for the title, thus I have removed that.
  • WP:ISBN suggests to use 13-digit ISBNs rather tha the 10-digits ones, which, for Bercken, would be 978-9-4609-2935-9.

@A Thousand Doors: Thank you for being kind enough to review it. I have resolved your comments. -- Frankie talk 21:20, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Out of curiosity, is there any particular reason you recommended to change some of the sorting? Thanks from me as well for your input. Snuggums (talk / edits) 21:22, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
I think it's just standard practice on FLs for names that begin with "The" or "A" to sort under their second word. A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 21:24, 4 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for your review A Thousand Doors. By the way, this "sorting" thing also happens on this article, for example the song "The Queen". GagaNutellatalk 01:55, 5 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Support One final thing: The way you've got the second sentence now makes it seem like she played a doomed starlet in all three music videos. I'd recommend saying, for example, "..."Poker Face" and "Paparazzi". In the video for "Paparazzi", she portrays a...", or some other construction, if you don't like the repetition of "Paparazzi". Nice work! A Thousand Doors (talk | contribs) 20:42, 9 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Johanna[edit]

*Is it standard or something for the top of the infoboxes of these kinds of things to say "video discography" instead of "videography"? If not, change it.
  • Because films, television, and commercials are in the list, they probably deserve a mention in the first sentence.
  • "alleged blasphemy" not "use of blasphemy"
  • Later in the lead, the film and commercials also probably deserve a mention.
  • Just wondering--do these offline sources summarize the music videos? If not, what's the policy on citing that kind of stuff?

That's all I got. Looks like a nice list! Johanna (formerly BenLinus1214)talk to me!see my work 02:21, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

All fixed. Thank you for your review. About the infobox, that's standard. The "offline sources" are books in which the content is about Gaga's biography. I think FrB.TG can explain it better. Again, thank you. GagaNutellatalk 02:41, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
@Johanna: I think this has come up before. For the sources regarding the plot, please see this. As for the video discography thing, the template automatically inserts discography that's why it's video discography instead of videography -- Frankie talk 08:36, 13 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from West Virginian[edit]

Support FrB.TG, GagaNutella, and SNUGGUMS, the prose of the lede is well-written, the lede adequately meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Manual of Style/Lead section, and the lists meet the criteria set forth at Wikipedia:Stand-alone lists. The image of Lady Gaga is licensed CC BY 2.0 and is therefore suitable for use here; and the image has both standard and alt captions. All the subsequent images have CC licenses, which also enables them to be included in this list. All other previous concerns have been addressed above. Thank you all for your extraordinary work on this filmography. -- West Virginian (talk) 11:04, 20 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I'm beyond grateful with your comments. Thank you so much! GagaNutellatalk 12:44, 20 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for the detailed review and support, West Virginian. Snuggums (talk / edits) 18:27, 20 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
