== Track listing templates == |
|||
i did use reliable sources....! |
|||
Hello. I've just noticed that you've changed a couple track list templates to numerical lists on Avicii's song articles recently. As I said in my edit summary on "Broken Arrows", [[MOS:ALBUM]] doesn't say we should change track listings into numbered lists (simple or not)—it only says if a track listing is ''complex'' that it can be formatted into a template. So it's only saying you can do it this one way if there's a lot of detail there. I've noted to several other editors that the ALBUM guideline wasn't changed after the track listing template was made, so at the time it was written, numerical lists ''were'' the only way to format track listings, so that's why it (still) says they "should generally be formatted as a numerical list". As you know, some users on this site directly oppose the use of track list templates and revert any conversion of a track list to a template, so I think where a template was first used (as on "Broken Arrows"), that should be retained. I didn't manually revert your edit to "Waiting for Love" as I note those were numerical lists when they were first added. <b>[[User:Ss112|<span style="color: #FF6347;">Ss</span>]]<small>[[User talk:Ss112|<span style="color: #1E90FF;">112</span>]]</small></b> 04:55, 18 May 2024 (UTC) |

== Die with a Smile edit == |
|||
According to Wikipedia guidelines, it is not, so don't shoot the messenger. [[User:Charmed36|Charmed36]] ([[User talk:Charmed36|talk]]) 00:42, 27 February 2009 (UTC) |
|||
How exactly did you decide that it was okay to revert an edit from 15 days ago on the Die with a Smile page and mess up with all the new edits the page got since then, including new chart peaks and certifications? You look pretty inconsiderate for someone who's been editing music articles for over 15 years. Be more careful. [[User:Debyf|Debyf]] ([[User talk:Debyf|talk]]) 21:27, 26 November 2024 (UTC) |
|||
Fantasy Ride track isting is on the page. Look! |
|||
:@{{u|Debyf}} mind your language - pay attention to [[WP:AGF|assume good faith]], irrespective of how long we've been editing for everyone at every level can make mistakes. It doesn't mean you can be rude. Yes I was lazy/clumsy to revert your edits to an earlier version, but the intent was good, i.e. to remove your edits with break with convention across other music articles. |
|||
== Brandy etc. == |
|||
Sorry, but the way you edit is unacceptable. |
|||
# Removing comments on [[talk page]]s is [[vandalism]]! I you don't like it ignore it, but DO NOT remove edits! |
|||
# Once again: There are guidelines on Wikipedia to create a uniform appearance for all articles - and ''[[Human (Brandy album)|Human]]'' really should be an example! I like the look of the templates but they do '''NOT''' fit the guidelines! |
|||
Please, accept his! - [[User:Noboyo|Noboyo]] |
|||
#first of all... i didnt remove comments from the talk page. atleast not deliberately altho i did add a reply. |
|||
#secondly guidelines are exactly what they say... they are GUIDES!!! to writing a good article not NECESSARILY the exact way of doing it. There is nothing wrong with the table format. I've monitored your handling of the Brandy page for the last month or so and you have been consistantly heavy handed. |
|||
#you have undone changes by numerous wiki editors. the article does not belong to you, wikipedia is for the public to use and therefore i should be able to make edits like anyone else. if wiki has a problem with the table format for tracklistings then it would not allow them at all. many albums have them, you have even agreed that you like the template. what's the problem then? |
|||
#you just dont want to accept the edit because it wasnt done by you, you cant accept that another user had a good idea for an article. |
|||
====2nd post==== |
|||
::1. If you did not deliberately edit it's okay, but it actually looked like as you did just remove my comment. |
|||
::2. [[WP:Albums]] says "you should feel free to personalize an article as you see fit, though '''others may change it to fit our standards'''." A template for the track listings is '''no standard on Wikipedia'''. This has been discussed before on the WP:Albums [[talk page]] ... Once again: I want this article to be an example! But even if I like the look of templates (I actually created tracklisting templates too in my earlier days on here), I do accept the fact, that it's not the standard requested on here. |
|||
::3. I accept any good idea as long as it matches the guidelines of quality (!) and has a reliable source. I'm aware that I do not own this article. That would be laughable. |
|||
== Fan sites == |
|||
Please take the time to review and understand [[WP:RS]]. Fansites are '''not''' reliable, and '''cannot''' be used to source information in Wikipedia.—[[User:Kww|Kww]]([[User talk:Kww|talk]]) 16:05, 7 March 2009 (UTC) |

== [[Leona Lewis]] == |
|||
Hi |
|||
I'm going to [[WP:AGF|assume you had the best intentions]] when you made [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Leona_Lewis&diff=279236008&oldid=279231764 this edit], but I've reverted you - your edit changed, for example, "Leona Lewis" to "Leona Leona". Additionally, the idea is that we try and maintain a [[WP:NPOV|neutral point of view]] - we shouldn't, for example, refer to thearticle's subject by her firstname, as that implies familiarity and is inappropriate for an encyclopaedia - it makes the article read like a fansite, whereas the idea is to make it sound like it was written by a completely impartial (neutral) editor. |

:Actually refering to her by her last name is more like a fansite and less like an encylopedia as the previous editor pointed out. and the leona leona thing was one slight error ([[User:Lil-unique1|Lil-unique1]] ([[User talk:Lil-unique1#top|talk]]) 21:47, 23 March 2009 (UTC)) |

== Re: [[Soundz]] == |

I think you are a little confused. While "The Soundz" might be the name of a production group, "Soundz" is just one man (Kenneth C. Coby). Since he always goes by just "Soundz", I changed the move. Hopefully this clears things up. [[User:Tom Danson|Tom Danson]] ([[User talk:Tom Danson|talk]]) 03:38, 2 April 2009 (UTC) |

Hi there. Please refer to the talk page regarding Billbaord references for both "Right Now (NBA version)" and "Top of the world". I have provided Billbaord references to show that both were released as commercial singles, not as promotional only. If you disgree then we need to find a Wikipedia consensus or policy on the defintion of a single. I don't see why such a definition would differ from Billboard as they are a credible reference and trusted source of data.

==RE: Ciara Discography== |

I would appreciate it if you would check who submits what on wikipedia before you accuse someone of putting on false information. I never entered anything regarding the chart success of Ciara's two songs (Go Girl and Never Ever). All I did was add in the nz chart success of her other song [[Love Sex Magic]]; it was someone else who added in the false information on the 31st March! If you compare edits you will see this. I would never intentionally graffiti any page with wrong information or facts. --[[User:Zurak26|Zurak26]] ([[User talk:Zurak26|talk]]) 12:19, 4 April 2009 (UTC) |

Hi Lil-unique1, can you please stop changing the current free image on the [[Nicole Scherzinger]] article with a fair-use one? See [[WP:NONFREE]]: fair-use images shouldn't be used to depict living people, and as I stated [http://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Nicole_Scherzinger&diff=282122183&oldid=282100977 here], there is even less reason to use a fair-use image of a living person when we already have a free image already available. Can you please consider reverting yourself? I'm not interested in revert-warring over this, but image issues are very important. Thanks. [[User:Acalamari|Acalamari]] 16:25, 7 April 2009 (UTC) |
