Album count

Hi, Harry. Re this edit, I'm curious exactly which releases you included to come up with a total of 26 for studio albums. Whether I include Light of the Stable or not, I can't duplicate your arithmetic. Rivertorch (talk) 19:38, 4 May 2011 (UTC)

Hi there. Well, the total amout of Emmylou's studio albums seems to be an interesting issue, as lots of different figures are circulation. Let me explain my way of summing them up: as we are talking about studio albums, I would of course include "Light Of The Stable", but exclude her live albums. Of course also "Gliding Bird" belongs in this list, but also her collaborations, as they are studio albums by Emmylou Harris, IMO. So, taking the 21 "normal" studio albums, adding "Light Of The Stable" and her 4 collaborations we get 26. But of course one could argue about the 4 collavorations really belonging in this list or not. Regards, Harry, 22:41, 4 May 2011 (UTC+1)

Ah, I see. Well . . . although I'm not sure that a Trio album, for instance, counts as an Emmylou album any more than Magical Mystery Tour counts as a Paul McCartney album, I'll concede that it might. The problem with counting it this way, though, is that it contradicts the section headings. The albums under the heading "Studio albums" are all solo efforts (and exclude Light of the Stable, fwiw), so the count is off. I don't think it's a huge problem, but I'll give it some thought and maybe post something on Talk:Emmylou Harris discography. Rivertorch (talk) 03:34, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Yeah, I guess that's the main question: at which point does a collaboration belong to a list of normal studio albums? Now I could argue that Magical Mystery Tour wasn't released as Paul McCartney, John Lennon,... but under the band name, whereas on Trio the 3 names are present. But than again, on the first two ABBA LPs we also have their individual names written, in the case of Ring Ring even without the actual word ABBA, as it didn't even exist as a band name back then. And still nobdy would add Ring Ring to the list of Agnetha Fältskog's solo albums. But apart from that, the change I made in the studio album count was from 24 to 26. So as much as we can argue about 26 being right or wrong, 24 does make even less sense, doesn't it? Harry, 10:12, 5 May (UTC+1)

The latest changes you made look fine to me. Rivertorch (talk) 18:46, 5 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks! Glad you approve it. Now everything should be clear I guess ;-) Harry 22:08, 5 May (UTC+1)

NB to Harry: If you haven't reported these as false positives, you really should. I don't know why you're tripping the filters, (although I suspect it will stop when you've been here a little longer). Rivertorch (talk) 03:15, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, I've just reported a false positive. I think deeleting a big part of a page easily could be seen as vandalism. And being a newbie, I really don't have that much background knowledge on what I'm allowed to do and what not. I guess it's all "training on the job" *g*

Not fair!

Typical. I spend three weeks working on a draft of Story Of A Heart in my userspace, and you get in first with a much better version! Seriously, well done. It looks good. Alzarian16 (talk) 09:06, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

*g* Thanks! But please, feel free to change things you don't like or that could be done better. Its all about improving :-) BTW, if you're an insder on Benny, maybe you could take a look at the discograpyh section I made for him: Benny Andersson discography. I'm curious what others think about it and if its OK like that! Thanks, Harry 11:15, June 15, (UTC+1)

I made a couple of small changes and added an extra source I found, but there isn't much there that needs changing. The discography is a good idea and well laid out, although I don't have any specialist knowledge so I probably won't be too much help there (I only know about Story Of A Heart because of its UK airplay). A few more sources for chart positions in other countries would be good. Alzarian16 (talk) 09:26, 15 June 2011 (UTC)

Old Yellow Moon

Hi. I see in the infobox for this article it refers to Mark Knopfler. Is this a typo? Gbawden (talk) 12:07, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

Yes, it certainly is! Thanks for the heads-up. -- Harry 14:55, 26 Feb 2013 (UTC+1)

Politsi

I'd suggest you ignore him. He always reacts way over the top whenever someone new challenges something on that list. Honestly his immature attitude turned me off from making any useful contribution as he always gets his panties in a twist over any suggestion and insults people. Sorry you had to encounter him.--Krystaleen 17:03, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Hi! Thanks for your comment, very appreciated. You know, at first I was pretty angry about him, his attitude and the way those guys run this list. But now I've really stopped bothering. Actually it's quite amusing seeing this Politsi guy always asking for permission and advice when he has found his petty little links. The only sad thing is that this list could ad should be interesting and somehow objective, but that's not the way it is right now. But luckily I have more important things to do than worry about that :-) HarrySwed (talk) 20:54, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Replaceable fair use File:Agnethaskavlan.jpg

Thanks for uploading File:Agnethaskavlan.jpg. I noticed the description page specifies that this media item is being used under a claim of fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails the first non-free content criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed media item could be found or created that provides substantially the same information or which could be adequately covered with text alone. If you believe this media item is not replaceable, please:

1. Go to the file description page and edit it to add {{di-replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original replaceable fair use template.
2. On the file discussion page, write the reason why this media item is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace this non-free media item by finding freely licensed media of the same subject, requesting that the copyright holder release this (or similar) media under a free license, or by creating new media yourself (for example, by taking your own photograph of the subject).

If you have uploaded other non-free media, consider checking that you have specified how these media fully satisfy our non-free content criteria. You can find a list of description pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that even if you follow steps 1 and 2 above, non-free media which could be replaced by freely licensed alternatives will be deleted 2 days after this notification (7 days if uploaded before 13 July 2006), per the non-free content policy. If you have any questions, please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Eeekster (talk) 21:10, 25 April 2013 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Carl Magnus Palm

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Carl Magnus Palm requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.), web content or organised event, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here.  SAMI  ^talk 16:33, 15 May 2014 (UTC)

Marking edits as minor

Hi. Please don't mark substantial contributions like this as minor. Please see Help:Minor edit for what constitutes a minor edit. Usually this is things like fixing typographical errors. Also, you seem to be returning to the article for Voyage to add component charts like physical sales charts. If the main chart of a country has been added, for both albums and singles, we do not add a sales chart whose metrics contribute to the overall chart no matter how substantial its performance in terms of sales or downloads were per WP:CHARTMATH. The statistic about Voyage's US physical sales is already addressed in the commercial performance section anyway. Thank you. Ss112 15:04, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

Hi, understood. I did not mark today's contribution as a minor edit though, so no need to mention it again. Harry 17:30, 16 Nov 2021 (UTC+1)
