Category talk:Songs about musicians

Question about links...

All the songs listed have links straight to the songs. What is the best way to deal with a song that doesn't have it's own page. (I was thinking about "Mighty K.C." by For Squirrels. The band has a Wikipedia page, and it was one of just a couple songs of theirs that got radio play before a van accident killed a couple members). It would be easy to link to the Wikipedia page, which does include mention a bit about the song, but there probably isn't enough to create a whole page just for the song. (The song peaked at #15 on the Billboard Modern Rock chart January 26th, 1996... so not a super famous song, but not something terribly obscure either) Nacoran (talk) 01:44, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

@Nacoran: An example in this category of what you're talking about is "Like Mariah". It is a redirect to the article Reflection (Fifth Harmony album). Click this link here Like Mariah, it's the link to the actual redirect page. You will see how the redirect itself is categorized.

In this case, you can create the redirect Mighty K.C. and direct it to the target Example (album) (hehe, not an "example", the name of the album happens to be Example)

Then add [[Category:Songs about musicians]] at the bottom of the newly created redirect page. The title will then appear in the category in italics, indicating it's a redirect.

Let me know if you have further questions or need help. --DB1729^talk 17:11, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

...cont. I was in a bit of a hurry when writing the above so now that I'm back, I can clarify further. The redirect's content will be similar to Like Mariah mentioned above.

Create the page Mighty K.C. with the following:

#REDIRECT [[Example (album)]]

{{R from song}}

[[Category:Songs about musicians]]

You can also add [[Category:1995 songs]] if you like. DB1729^talk 19:24, 11 October 2024 (UTC)

...follow up. @Nacoran: It's been almost two weeks so I just went ahead created the redirect myself. View Category:Songs about musicians to see it now appears under M. Cheers!:) --DB1729^talk 16:04, 24 October 2024 (UTC)
