Vandalism?

Not at all My edits to We Sing. We Dance. We Steal Things. do not constitute vandalism as they were not "addition[s], removal[s], or change[es] of content made in a deliberate attempt to compromise the integrity of Wikipedia" and it's honestly a ridiculous claim. This album compiles previously-released material, making it a compilation album. If you want to talk about that on the article's talk page, that's fine and well, but your notice on my talk is ridiculous. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 03:34, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

EPs I was under the impression that the material from this album was also on the previously-released EPs. If I am mistaken, you could be civil about it and not maek the slanderous allegation that I was vandalizing Wikipedia. It's easy to be nice. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 03:40, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

All's well This is a simple misunderstanding then, and no harm is done. In the future, I would advise you to be judicious about placing a template on someone's talk page that claims that their edits appear to constitute vandalism, as that is a serious allegation on Wikipedia. Thanks for posting to my talk to discuss this. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 03:45, 1 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Woohoo

Well we've already had one discussion and the fact is Xtina promoted the song with a live performance and sent it to radio. In the US you send songs to radio but its up to individual stations if they add them. If stations choose not to add a song then obviously its airplay will be lower. The song was made to download and it was sent to radio. Obviously radio didnt add it and hence it had a short-shelf life. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 02:17, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Per WP:Other things exist it isn't wise to get into an argument of But "Go Girl" is a promo single... etc. But since you've brought it up, "Go Girl" as her first official single. Then she herself and her label denounced the song saying it was a promo release and its only included on some versions of the album as a bonus track. "Woohoo" is actually included on Bionic it was released and coverage from MTV even calls it a single. Both "Go Girl" and "Woohoo" are singles the difference is that because "Go Girl" is not included on all versions of the album and because of the artist/label's comments its a promo single. If you wish to open a discussion about "Woohoo" on the discussion page please do. But I'm not sure what you want? Do you want the article to be deleted? Do you want it to be downgraded to promotional single? -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 15:14, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Well just start a new discussion on the talk page like you did mine. The only reason it leaked was because Aggie posted it on her youtube page. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 17:01, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Roommate (Korean band)

Don't redirect non-existant band articles, let them be deleted. The articles need to be written to prove that they meet WP:BAND, or else anybody could just put their non-notable band onto Wikipedia and then redirect them somewhere. Everard Proudfoot (talk) 05:02, 5 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

After I posted the message I noticed some user (probably an IP) removed RedOne from production, and by using writers real names in their first track listing mention, you more than likely didn't recognize Nadir Khayat as RedOne, so no problem ! :) Candy o32 03:01, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, although all promotion ceased, similar to Woohoo (song), Put it in a Love Song still gets single template because of the radio date. Candy o32 06:13, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Only Girl

Please note that there is a policy in wikipedia called WP:CRYSTAL. It basically states that without confirmed release dates from reliable sources any information is subject to change. Until event x happens on date y information a, b and c is never 100% true. If event x never happens then information a, b and c must be scrutinized and if its sources are reliable it is accepted as truth but there will always be a degree of error/margin of non-confidence. Does that make sense? -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 01:36, 8 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sale el Sol

Because the two different versions of the album have different names it is appropriate to have the seperate headings. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 16:22, 9 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Despite me explaining the above to you, you still went and removed this? why? Whilst the article is in the size it is the level 3 headings are appropriate. This is explained at WP:ALBUMS. Additionally I'm trying to make the article more accessible so please stop removing them. In future please discuss such edits. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 09:20, 10 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fefe Dobson discography among other articles

Hello. Please complete the project that you start[ed] at Fefe Dobson discography, so that it will have an Ending :D Get it? Start-Ending. Please note and correct the orphaned refs and Thank You. I have no dispute over those sections being moved there and had thought to do it some day perhaps. Thank You, again.—Iknow23 (talk) 01:05, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, you can refuse to talk to me if you wish, but just to let you know...now you also need to correct the infobox linkage.—Iknow23 (talk) 06:15, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I have no dispute to the removal of the questionable Amazon material at Sunday Love. But you then use Amazon as your source for Joy? So obviously Amazon is UNreliable regarding FUTURE release dates, but PAST dates there is no problem as in the singles "Watch Me Move" and "I Want You" as the release has already occurred.—Iknow23 (talk) 00:44, 13 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I fixed the discog infobox. EnJOY :) —Iknow23 (talk) 04:20, 14 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Miley Cyrus

Please do not remove maintenance templates from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to Miley Cyrus, without resolving the problem that the template refers to, or giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. Your removal of this template does not appear constructive, and has been reverted. Thank you. AussieLegend (talk) 08:04, 12 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

Hi Zach, How are you? I just wanted to say well done! You've been making a conscious effort to be a better editor and its paying off!

Wanted to point a few things out:

On Sale El Sol, I agree with you completely, so I've removed all but the one tracklisting sourced from her official website!
On Louboutins, Using a border is always preferred.
On "Love?", she is actually signed to Def Jam records which is itself part of the Island/Def Jam record label group. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 22:10, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not bad thanks. Labels are a strange thing cus you have production labels (with producers/writers) who actually make the records and then you have marketing labels who actually promote the artist and then distribution labels who actually get the record out. E.g. Rihanna is signed to Def Jam who market her. Yet Island/Def Jam is her distributor and SRC Records actually pays the writers/producers. So in the US Def Jam release Rihanna records, in the UK is done by Mercury Records and then internationally by Universal Music. Confused? LOL -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 22:25, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Its probably because all the writers and producers who work on the album are signed to or are associates of SRC. SRC will appear on the back of the CD case with Def Jam. Its cause labels operate exchange partnerships. another way of explaining it is: Taio Cruz is signed to Island in the UK. So Island records pays for all his recording etc. They release him in the UK but Mercury releases him in the US even though they paid nothing towards the production. In return Mariah Carey is signed to Island in the US so Island pays for her recording. But Mercury agrees to release her stuff in the UK. So by doing this both Island and Mercury artists get sold around the world and because they're both owned by Universal Music, one company makes the money. =)

You uploaded a new image because it was higher resolution, or as you said "better quality". Don't do that please. Non-free images like album covers should be low resolution, see here, point 3b. Regards, Angus McLellan (Talk) 23:47, 25 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I Hate Boys

It was redirected by an AfD discussion which is present on the talk page. That means there is a concensus to not create the page. If you wish to do so you need to create it in a WP:SANDBOX or at you're user page and then ask other editors to decide whether it is notable or not. Then an administrator would merge the pages. Do not recreate the page again. -- Lil_℧niquℇ №1 | talk2me 21:28, 26 September 2010 (UTC)[reply]
