List of Shania Twain music videos

While I never started this article, I really tidied it up and made it like no other music video page on Wikipedia. The list is accurate, I have several sources with matching information plus a DVD release that confirms them. The list uses pictures (all of which have fair-use rationals included) to further enhance the list. There's no other featured list that has anything to do with music, so it would be interesting if this could become the first one. --Thankyoubaby 17:29, 23 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: I honestly don't know why no one is supporting or objecting to this, I would like if anyone could at least leave feedback so it doesn't sit here and I can make improvements. Personally I think it deserves to be featured. Everyone here just skipped over it and talked about the newer one above. --Thankyoubaby 18:42, 30 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

~~Object~~ Intro paragraph to short. I'm no copyright guru, but I'm not sure those would pass muster. Jo e I 01:35, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for leaving the feedback. I expanded the intro paragraph as best as I could. As for the screenshots, I got the "template" from a screenshot of a music video from a featured article (Cool (song)), so they should be up to par. . --Thankyoubaby 02:52, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Striking my object, but still don't think I can support. What about a non video pic for the lead? And maybe a column for the ranking the song got on video charts?. Jo e I 03:06, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Comment The list seems to tick all the boxes and is attractive to look at. I'm close to supporting this but have some important concerns about the references. Personally, I think a clip from a video is fair-use for illustrating an artists video releases. If someone who actually knows the copyright rules can correct me...

I think you need to hunt down some better references. CMT is one I found, is a legit site for viewing the clips, and is owned by Viacom so is likely to be a reliable source. Her offical site doesn't seem to have details on the videos that I could find. The MVDB site is OK, I think, but a bit less professional. The personal web sites: Dutch Shania Twain Club, and Tommy's #1 Shania Twain Super Site aren't really suitable for a Featured List. The VideoStatic and ShaniaForums links are blogs/forums which certainly shouldn't be included.

I know that fans collect lots of titbits of info that help fill out the list, but by relying on personal fan web sites, it makes Wikipedia no more reliable than one bloke and his computer. Really, our sources should have editorial teams and professional values. I think you should review all facts in your list and either trim or find solid sources for each one. If the best you can find are blogs or forums comments, the those facts have to go.

I apologise for not commenting earlier. Perhaps uncertainty over the image rights, or just personal musical taste has put people off. You may be running out of time to get enough support this time. If you can improve the references and we can get clear guidance on the images, then I don't see why this list couldn't get featured in future. Colin°^Talk 17:44, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the input. I'll try and find some better resources and references and maybe re-nominate it down the road sometime, since I doubt it will pass now. --Thankyoubaby 22:13, 1 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
