A tag has been placed on A: I Need a Man / B: Again And Again, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the page appears to have no meaningful content or history, and the text is unsalvageably incoherent.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag) and leave a note on the page's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself.

If the page you created was a test, please use the sandbox for any other experiments you would like to do. Feel free to leave a message on my talk page if you have any questions about this. Myzou 14:17, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove speedy deletion notices from articles you have created yourself. Please use the {{hangon}} template on the page instead if you disagree with the deletion. Thank you. Deor 16:11, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

In addition, please note that uninformative article titles such as "A: I Need a Man / B: Again And Again" are not acceptable. If you want to include this information in Wikipedia, I suggest you create a page titled something like "Grace Jones singles" and list them all there. Deor 16:11, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A: La Vie en Rose / B: I Need A Man

A tag has been placed on A: La Vie en Rose / B: I Need A Man, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a very short article providing little or no context to the reader. Please see Wikipedia:Stub for our minimum information standards for short articles. Also please note that articles must be on notable subjects and should provide references to reliable sources that verify their content.

Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself. If you plan to expand the article, you can request that administrators wait a while for you to add contextual material. To do this, affix the template {{hangon}} to the article and state your intention on the article's talk page. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this.

A: Sorry / B: That’s The Trouble

In the talk page for A: Sorry / B: That’s The Trouble you say: I am adding information on each single release - which will include sleeve images, and information on 12" singles and remixes.

Nooooooooo! Please read the fair use image criteria for album sleeves, the music guidelines and the manual of style. The Music Wikiproject can help you.

The article you created has the wrong title, the wrong content and the wrong format. Please please look at other articles on singles before creating any more. Cruftbane 22:57, 29 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Have looked at several sections - one in particular (Blondie - The Band) has a section called 'Singles' that links each release to each single individually and show sleeve covers etc. What did I do wrong as this set up is the same as I was trying to make available for Grace Jones. Please could you help by providing some helpful information. There is no SINGLES section on any link you included. Dean Peirce-Hendriks 12:30, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

A: Sorry, etc

Hi Dean - I've come across your article on this while I was doing some page deletion. I want to really encourage you to, as Cruftbane points out, work with - not against - other people who are trying to do the same thing. As an administrator, I'm here to be a resource to you; let's see if there's a way to get your articles in the same context and content as similar ones. Have you looked at the music guidelines to see the best way to do this? A reply (here) is appreciated. - Philippe | Talk 00:08, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Philippe - Thanks for the encouragement! I really want to add a real singles discography to the Grace Jones article. I wanted actually to provide a link from the main article to each single released. There is NO other discography online for Grace Jones and I have researched this in great detail. My aim is not a list of pointless song titles, as now listed on the main article, but to provide information on the rare alternative versions, remixes, edits and the CD availablity of this material. Am I right in thinking that sleeve covers amy also be used? This seems to be ok on LP/CD releases so surely this will also be ok for singles?
