Typo in "Personal Life" section

[edit]

It says "Minogue was in a relationship with executive Jonathan Sasse up until 2017,". This should read "actor Joshua Sasse" instead, according to the cited reference (and Joshua Sasse's wikipedia page and the references therein). Relative eric (talk) 17:15, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Done. Hotwiki (talk) 17:51, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks, but still says "Jonathan" rather than "Joshua". The person in question also has a Wikipedia page https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joshua_Sasse so I guess a link to it would also make sense. 47.55.142.63 (talk) 22:56, 28 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Also done. Hotwiki (talk) 02:11, 29 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Semi-protected edit request on 5 March 2025

[edit]

In Personal Life section, please correct mention of 'Jason Donavan' and change to 'Jason Donovan', which is the correct spelling. 2A10:D582:357D:0:14EF:9280:8AC6:B235 (talk) 21:26, 5 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

"Bubblegum albums"

[edit]

Rhythm of Love and Let's Get To It, her last two albums under PWL, are not "bubblegum" nor are they necessarily "dance pop *influenced." They are just mature adult dance pop when Kylie was becoming a more serious artist. It is much more accurate to say they are "4 pop albums released under PWL" and then marking her shift to trip hop and house with KM94 and later on, Impossible Princess.

Please provide references about the genres of those albums. Hotwiki (talk) 15:05, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
The lead article for Rhythm of Love states that it is a "musical departure from Minogue's earlier bubblegum pop" records. The reference is right there. PHShanghai | they/them (talk) 18:25, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Lead section changes

[edit]

@PHShanghai:, whats up with these numerous lead changes again?[1] You are clearly aware that when you make several changes into the lead section, several issues always come up. Having been discussed this in ANI, last year - I would have thought you knew better to at least discuss changes first in the talk page, to not repeat the cycle again. Adding a Billboard Women in Music Award is not in the top priority of things, when Minogue have received dozens of awards in different organizations. Its not as prestigious as the Grammys and Brits. Why are you including Padam Padam (2023) in the list of hits post-Fever era/pre-BMG era, when that clearly occured years after she signed to Bmg in 2017. Hotwiki (talk) 15:29, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

And highlighting the fact the single "Come Into the World" won a Grammy Award isn't needed, since it was already mentioned in the lead that Minogue won 2 Grammy Awards. Hotwiki (talk) 15:40, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
For comparison, to other awards organizations already mentioned in the lead - the lead section isn't highlighting which single or album gave Minogue her first Aria Award (Locomotion in 1988) and Brit Award (Fever in 2002), for her 1st Grammy to be highlighted. Hotwiki (talk) 15:46, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Kylie is the first Australian artist in the 21st century to win a Grammy. According to the Come Into My World article, no Australian artists had won there since 1982. PHShanghai | they/them (talk) 18:27, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
Both ANI discussions specifically came with warnings from other editors to lighten on your status quo stonewalling, which you have been doing for two years now, since 2023. Other editors in the community have told you to "give way" for other editors to edit this article. You have been consistently uncompromising when editing this article. I wish we would collaborate more. Thank you. PHShanghai | they/them (talk) 18:24, 16 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
