Digg & Reddit
Last I checked digg and reddit are user controlled sites. The contents or implication of anything on those sites doesn't meet WP:V and nothing can be sourced from them. There have been plenty of talk regarding the veracity of some of the submissions and how they become "popular" depending on who submits them, etc. There is no indication that the results of a digg submission are notable or reliable and constitute original research.--221.138.100.194 (talk)

- How is referencing digg & reddit original research? I didn't submit them, I didn't even create this article. You make little to no sense here. R3ap3R.inc (talk) 16:36, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

Recent edits
While the majority of the edits were somewhat beneficial, there were enough errors to warrant an undo. Specifically, the spelling of multiple words was changed to reflect British english as oppossed to American (favorite vs favourite, skeptical v sceptical, etc). This article should stick with the standard Americanized English R3ap3R.inc (talk) 22:00, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- No, it should not. Please read WP:ENGVAR#Strong national ties to a topic, which states that article spelling should reflect the region of the world that the article's subject is from (or associated with). This person is from the United Kingdom, and the show she appeared on is "Britain's Got Talent", thus, using British English in this article is appropriate. Re-applying those changes. — Huntster (t • @ • c) 23:01, 13 April 2009 (UTC)

viral
According to Wiktionary, the meaning of "viral" whcih the section here apparently using is as an adjective. Should a section be headed by an adjective? Also, should a section be headed by a relatively rare word? Should we expect a lot of our readers to have to go searching for the meaning of a heading? 211.225.37.54 (talk) 23:16, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- Does anyone who has a computer and uses Wikipedia not know what viral means? Who is to say where the intelligence threshold may lie. There's nothing wrong with having to look up one thing to understand another. This is an encyclopedia afterall. Hrhadam (talk) 23:55, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
