Spears

Hi. Please refrain from adding "Singles" again to Spears's page. It is not confirmed by a verifiable source. Do not fall foul of the 3RV rule, thanks. MrMarmite (talk) 22:55, 26 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pixie Lott

Re: this edit, do you have a reference for that? The cited reference states "73", not "1", and your edit didn't replace the cited ref with a new one - so right now the article has a ref that says one thing and a claim that says something quite different.

On second thoughts, I've reverted it to "73" - the BBC only list the Top 40, and Boys and Girls ain't there. Yahoo UK singles charts state 73, and acharts.us state 73. Cheers, TFOWR^{This flag once was red} 13:46, 12 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

January 2011

Welcome to Wikipedia. Everyone is welcome to contribute to the encyclopedia, but when you add or change content, as you did to the article Bruno Mars discography, please cite a reliable source for the content of your edit. This helps maintain our policy of verifiability. Take a look at Wikipedia:Citing sources for information about how to cite sources and the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you.

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Bruno Mars discography. Users who edit disruptively or refuse to collaborate with others may be blocked if they continue.

In particular, the three-revert rule states that:

Making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24-hour period is almost always grounds for an immediate block.
Editors violating the rule will usually be blocked for 24 hours for a first incident.
Do not edit war even if you believe you are right.

If you find yourself in an editing dispute, use the article's talk page to discuss controversial changes. Work towards wording, and content that represents consensus among editors. You can post a request for help at an appropriate noticeboard or seek dispute resolution. In some cases it may be appropriate to request temporary page protection. If edit warring continues, you may be blocked from editing without further notice. CTJF83 chat 21:36, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2011 in British music

I can do if you'd like to. It was only that I saw there was a request for the material to be condensed into more releveant material, so that's what I've done. MarvelSam talk 16:43, 1 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

xxxx (year) in British music charts

Hello Liam, I know you've been contributing to the above articles, including the lists of best-selling singles and albums for the last few years. I wanted to let you know I'm thinking of trying to standardise the tables for all years and in particular the "sales figures": as far as I know the OCC or other official sources only provide sales figures for the top ten at most, and all other figures are estimates calculated by chart enthusiasts on internet forums, so I'm proposing getting rid of all sales figures which can't be properly referenced. There were no sales figures published before 1994 anyway, so any figures in these articles before 1994 are complete guesses. I'm guessing most people are only really interested in what the top singles/albums sold each year anyway, so I reckon it would be better to concentrate on keeping List of best-selling singles in the United Kingdom up to date. If you have any comments or opinions on this, please let me know. Cheers. Richard3120 (talk) 11:42, 19 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]
