Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded is a reissue of Barbadian recording artist Rihanna's third studio album Good Girl Gone Bad (2007). Released to mark the first-year anniversary of the original album, the album features three newly recorded songs and a DVD showing exclusive behind-the-scenes footage of Rihanna's worldwide tour Good Girl Gone Bad Tour (2007–09). For the new material, she worked with past collaborators Ne-Yo, StarGate, and C. "Tricky" Stewart, as well as Brian Kennedy, Mark Endert, Mike Elizondo, Mark "Spike" Stent and Maroon 5. Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded received generally positive reviews from music critics, who praised the sound and production of the newly added material. The album sold 63,000 copies in its first week and helped the original album peak at number seven on the US Billboard 200. The reissue charted in New Zealand and peaked at number four; it was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of New Zealand. The album was promoted with four singles, including the US number-one hits "Take a Bow" and "Disturbia". To further promote Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded, Rihanna performed songs from the reissue on several television programs and award ceremonies including FNMTV and the 2008 MTV Video Music Awards.

- I am nominating this because I think there was some time before a music-related article appeared on Wikipedia's main page. I think it's nice if the article appears; it was just promoted (there were not major issues with it), also it would be nice if it can appear this period so it will mark the 5 year anniversary of its release. The album was iconic and often compared to albums like Thriller, so according to me it's notable to appear on the main Wikipedia page. Points counting: 4, the date (month June or July) is relevant to the topic, 1 point for myself (I am major contributor on the article) and 2 point because a similar article wasn't on today's page I guess ever (this is a reissue of a studio album). — Tomíca(T2ME) — Statυs (talk, contribs) 09:31, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
- As a note, Odyssey Number Five, a rock album, appeared June 20, 2013 (2 days ago). Chris857 (talk) 22:33, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
- As I stated above, that was a studio album, this is a reissue of an album which is actually something different. — Tomíca(T2ME) 22:36, 22 June 2013 (UTC)
- "Similar" is counted much more generally than that. No differentiation between studio album, compilation album, or reissued album, for one. Read the header. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:45, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose due to the recent similar article issue. --Rschen7754 07:33, 23 June 2013 (UTC)
- -1 point before July 20, 1 point thereafter. You can't claim date relevance points in the non-specific date section; so you get one point for your first TFA, with a two-point penalty before July 20. BencherliteTalk 19:17, 2 July 2013 (UTC)
- Support' I have no problems with runs of similar articles. A popular and accessible article. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 03:59, 3 July 2013 (UTC)
