Speedy deletion nomination of Fantastic Voyage (Lakeside song)
editA tag has been placed on Fantastic Voyage (Lakeside song) 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 about a person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Speed Deletion Nomination Mistake
editSorry, for nominating these articles it was a mistake. I have taken these tags back off. once again sorry.--Jamie Shaw (talk) 08:07, 24 May 2009 (UTC)
R&B number-ones
editHi there, thanks for working on creating these. Just a few things... please be aware of naming conventions in article titles. Incidental words and prepostions such as "The", "A", "An", "With", etc. should not be capitalized unless it is the first word in the title (see Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums#Capitalization for more). Also be sure to add categories to the articles. Two easy ones are "Category:19xx singles" (for the year of release) and "Category:Billboard Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs number-one singles", since they are U.S. R&B number-ones. You may also want to add a stub tag since the new articles need expansion (WP:SONGS#Stubs). Any other questions just ask. Thanks - eo (talk) 22:36, 30 May 2009 (UTC)
- Also, when naming new song articles, you don't have to include the (Name of artist song) within the title of the article. This is only to disambiguate the article name if there is already an article by that name. First, just use the title of the song, if that's taken, try Title of song (song), before adding in the artist's name. Within the article, also include the album that the song originally appeared on. Including your sources would also be extremely helpful. You must be getting the chart information from somewhere, right? Finally, add infoboxes to your article on singles. It provides nice, quick information to the readers (see Template:Infobox Single). Don't worry, you don't have to fill in all the info, just what you know. Have fun and thanks for contributing. --Wolfer68 (talk) 05:54, 2 June 2009 (UTC)
Further advice
editI'd like to provide some further advice on your creation of number-one R&B and dance song articles.
- In the song title's first mention in the article, not only should it be in bold-faced type, it should be in quotations. "Kiddio" instead of Kiddio, for example.
- Don't overdo the commas. Most of them are unnecessary as in this sentence you wrote:
- "Kiddio", also continued Brook Benton's popularity on the pop charts, by making it his fifth, top ten, pop single. Not one comma in that sentence is needed.
- Use in-text citations and correct citation style. Instead of a note at the bottom of the article, it is better to cite specifically the sentence being referenced within the article.
- You would add this <ref>{{cite book |title= Top R&B/Hip-Hop Singles: 1942-2004|last=Whitburn |first=Joel |authorlink=Joel Whitburn |year=2004 |publisher=Record Research |page=54}}</ref>. Put {{reflist}} under the References section and the listing would look like this:
- Whitburn, Joel (2004). Top R&B/Hip-Hop Singles: 1942-2004. Record Research. p. 54.
- You would add this <ref>{{cite book |title= Top R&B/Hip-Hop Singles: 1942-2004|last=Whitburn |first=Joel |authorlink=Joel Whitburn |year=2004 |publisher=Record Research |page=54}}</ref>. Put {{reflist}} under the References section and the listing would look like this:
- When creating a chart positions section, if only listing a few chart titles, there is no need to sort them, since it's all visually in front of you. Use class="wikitable" instead of class="wikitable sortable".
- Also in the table, if you are going to pipe the chart name (e.g. [[Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs|Hot Black Singles]]), make sure you use the correct chart name at the time when the single charted. "Hot Black Singles", for example, was the name of the R&B chart from 1982 through 1990, while in the early '60s it was called "Hot R&B Sides". The chronology of the names is listed in the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs article. You can do the same thing in the succession box, too.
- The succession boxes should be placed at the end of the article, especially for small articles like yours. The only thing that should be after the succession box is an artist's navigation template (if there is one), the categories, and a stub.
- Also, there is no need to wikilink dates. That is a deprecated practice.
- Finally, be sure to add a stub at the end of all your articles, since they are never more than a few sentences long. {{R&B-song-stub}} or {{1960s-pop-song-stub}} are a couple of examples to use, depending on the type of song it is, of course, and when it was released.
Feel free to respond on my talk page if you have any questions. Thanks for your contributions and happy editing! --Wolfer68 (talk) 23:47, 1 July 2009 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Baby Love (Regina song)
editA proposed deletion template has been added to the article Baby Love (Regina song), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
- As is insufficient context
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Merge/Separation of different versions of the same song
editAs somebody who is interested in songs you may be interested to know there is a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Songs/coverversions with the purpose of trying to establish a standard rule for merge/separate different versions of the same song.

Speedy deletion nomination of Dial My Heart
editA tag has been placed on Dial My Heart requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for music.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay.

Categories
editPlease be sure to add the artist's songs category to all the article stubs you are creating, per WP:SONGS#Categories. For example, the article for the song, "I Love", should have been added to Category:Tom T. Hall songs. Even if the category doesn't exist, it should be added and then it can be created. Thanks. --Wolfer68 (talk) 19:20, 3 December 2009 (UTC)
Succession boxes
editFYI, there is a current discussion at Wikipedia talk:Record charts#Succession boxes about the need of the succession boxes within song articles. Since you seem to be creating articles for songs that reached number one on various U.S. charts (dance, R&B, country), and include such boxes, you should be prepared to stop the practice. You can continue to add the boxes until consensus is reached and it's put into the guidelines, but you may also want to start including the information you put in the boxes into the prose, which is primarily the date the song reached number one. You may also want to link the chart from within the article as well. A chart section is another possibility. I made such changes to the article you created for "Say You'll Stay Until Tomorrow" as one way of doing it (keeping the succession box for now). --Wolfer68 (talk) 21:49, 9 December 2009 (UTC)

Hello, nice to meet you! I'm Airplaneman. While patrolling new pages, your 150+ articles frequently stand out as being consistently great in quality. May I suggest getting autoreviewer rights? They will mark your articles automatically patrolled, lessening the load of pages for newpage patrollers. Keep it up! Regards, Airplaneman talk 19:16, 18 December 2009 (UTC)
I came here to say exactly the same thing. I notice that your edits are almost exclusively to the article space. So, thinking that perhaps messing with wiki-process doesn't interest you, I went ahead and put in the request to have autoreviewer rights assigned to you. Hope you don't mind. It won't really affect anything you do; it is just to save time for other people so they don't have to review your articles at new pages patrol. --RL0919 (talk) 21:02, 22 December 2009 (UTC)
Tenses
editHi - I notice you're creating a lot of song articles which contain phrases like " ... would be her tenth number one on the country chart ..." Please could you write these in the past tense? If it was her tenth number one, then that's a fact, and I think it reads better as eg " ... was her tenth number one on the country chart ..."

Succession boxes
editPlease don't put "by [name of artist]" in the middle succession box for #1's.

You are now a Reviewer
editHello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, will be commencing a two-month trial at approximately 23:00, 2010 June 15 (UTC).
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under flagged protection. Flagged protection is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 19:13, 15 June 2010 (UTC)
Adult contemporary #1's
editFYI - I have edited your succession box for the article you created for the song "Navy Blue" from this:
to this:
Note that I wiki-linked the artists in the songs preceding and succeeding; I removed the artist's name for the song of the article (you only need to put the name when there are multiple hit versions and it needs to be made clear which version; when you need to add whose version, type "(So-and-so version)" not "by So-and-so"; I removed the number of weeks (when more than one week just add a date range based on the issue dates it was at number one); I changed your link for the chart from Hot Adult Contemporary to Adult Contemporary (chart); you don't need to link Billboard within the pipe for the chart; and Billboard should be italicized not within quotation marks. There's really no need for line breaks <br> either.
Also, you continue to use "would be" instead of "was". Instead of saying, "Navy Blue" would be one of two chart hits for Diane Renay", write "Navy Blue" was one of two chart hits for Renay" (you don't have to repeat the artist's full name either). I hope this helps. I'm going to go back and correct all the AC #1's you've already added the succession boxes to. If you can follow this for any more you add in that will be great. Thanks. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 10:49, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
- Oh, and as TenPoundHammer suggested above, adding infoboxes to articles would be helpful too. See Wikipedia:WikiProject Songs#Infobox for more info. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 10:53, 4 July 2010 (UTC)
- Why do you continue to not link the artist name of the preceding and succeeding songs when you add in the succession boxes and why do you continue to put "by so-and-so" even when that artist's version is the only notable version? --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 16:56, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
Hi - once again, there is no need to add the artist name within the succession boxes you are adding to articles such as Something Better to Do. The article clearly states it is a song by Olivia Newton-John and no other notable versions are mentioned. I have removed where you put in "by Olivia Newton-John" in the box. Thanks. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 08:10, 21 July 2010 (UTC)
Fix your pipes
editMake sure you pipe links correctly. The name of the article for the Billboard Adult Contemporary chart is Adult Contemporary (chart). You are piping the link backwards - it should be [[Adult Contemporary (chart)|Adult Contemporary]] not [[Hot Adult Contemporary|Adult Contemporary (chart)]]. --Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 10:44, 13 August 2010 (UTC)
- Not this [[Hot Adult Contemporary|Adult Contemporary]], but this [[Adult Contemporary (chart)|Adult Contemporary]]
- Not this [[Adult Contemporary (chart)]], but this [[Adult Contemporary (chart)|Adult Contemporary]]
Please do it right. It's not that hard. You should follow my examples after I corrected some of your earlier edits. Thanks.--Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars (talk) 01:52, 15 August 2010 (UTC)

editHi. Thank you for your recent edits. An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Time (The Alan Parsons Project song), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Chilean (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Billboard chart details in intro paragraphs
editI think you're putting details about Billboard charts in the introductory paragraph so many articles about songs - I've encountered several on Creedence Clearwater songs. I am reverting the ones on articles I watch because that's unnecessary detail for the opening paragraph. You may want to return those details lower down in the story, if you wish.
As you know, the intro to an article should be quick and concise summary of important information about the article topic. Saying that a song was blocked from #1 by somebody's else's song, with detail and links, is way too cluttered for the intro. - DavidWBrooks (talk) 01:12, 6 December 2018 (UTC)

Secondhandsongs
editSecondhandsongs fails WP:USERG because people can sign in and change the information. Binksternet (talk) 04:57, 5 March 2021 (UTC)
It should lead you to the link.
Covers & pop culture
editHi, I noticed you have added covers and "In popular culture" examples to several articles. Please note these need reliable sources that show that they are noteworthy for inclusion in an encyclopedic article – sources that merely show that they exist are not sufficient to meet WP:SONGCOVER or WP:SONGTRIVIA. Also, WP:NOTRSMUSIC includes a list of sources that are not reliable for WP purposes, such as user-generated sites, like secondhandsongs and discogs. —Ojorojo (talk) 15:05, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
- I agree with this request. Another source you have used, 45cat.com, fails WP:USERG. The Joel Whitburn book you have been using is a great source, but it establishes that the cover exists, and the requirement at WP:SONGCOVER is higher than that. The cover version should be important to the topic. Binksternet (talk) 17:23, 7 April 2021 (UTC)
- Two months later and the same problems are continuing: user generated sources, such as Discogs.com, are not considered reliable sources for WP articles and should not be added to articles. Also, covers and appearances in films, etc., need reliable sources that discuss them as somehow noteworthy, not that they just exist. The above links provide more info. —Ojorojo (talk) 14:16, 27 June 2021 (UTC)
- Again, please do not continue to add user-generated sources, such as 45cat.com, discogs.com, and secondhandsongs.com to articles. These are not considered WP:RELIABLESOURCES (see entries on WP:NOTRSMUSIC). If a song or album is notable, there should be actual reliable sources available. —Ojorojo (talk) 14:58, 13 January 2022 (UTC)

November 2022
editThank you for your edit to the disambiguation page Miranda. However, please note that disambiguation pages are not articles; rather, they are meant to help readers find a specific article quickly and easily. From the disambiguation dos and don'ts, you should:
- Only list articles that readers might reasonably be looking for
- Use short sentence fragment descriptions, with no punctuation at the end
- Use exactly one navigable link ("blue link") in each entry
- Only add a "red link" if used in existing articles, and include a "blue link" to an appropriate article
- Do not pipe links (unless style requires it) – keep the full title of the article visible
- Do not insert external links or references
Thank you. Donald Albury 22:45, 30 November 2022 (UTC)
Cover songs
editThanks for your edits to Wikipedia. Please review WP:COVERSONG before adding cover versions. Merely appearing on an album is not a sufficient reason to add a cover version. I realize that this guideline is often violated, but there's no need to add additional covers that don't meet the inclusion criteria. Thanks. Sundayclose (talk) 21:04, 7 July 2023 (UTC)

Cover songs again
editI'm reverting A LOT of the additions you have made that don't meet WP:SONGCOVER and I can see you've been warned about this quite a few times. Please stop. Doctorhawkes (talk) 09:22, 9 July 2024 (UTC)
- I'm longer using the "song cover" title, rather I know use "other recordings". ccj (talk) 01:18, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- That doesn't make any difference at all. "Other recordings" still need to meet WP:SONGCOVER. Frankly, you're spending a lot of time adding information that doesn't meet noteworthiness and will be reverted. Doctorhawkes (talk) 02:10, 10 July 2024 (UTC)
- And...you're doing it again. Why waste your time adding stuff that will be reverted? Doctorhawkes (talk) 02:03, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- Will you also be reverting edits from user:MACWILMSLO, from 2018?? As they remain untouched. ccj (talk) 07:02, 26 July 2024 (UTC)
- Doing it again. Please stop. Doctorhawkes (talk) 23:02, 29 August 2024 (UTC)
- Please refer to the entry, “I Love You, Samantha” ,as only my contributions are reverted and not others, why is that?? ccj (talk) 01:26, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- Firstly, I've never edited that page, so it's very hard to know what you're referring to. Secondly, I mostly monitor changes to pages, so it's more likely I'll remove an addition you have made rather than something added five years ago. I have no obligation to remove everything. Doctorhawkes (talk) 03:47, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- It's seems I'm being singled out. ccj (talk) 04:38, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- You've been warned by four different people and keep doing the same thing. Of course you will get reverted. If it makes you feel any better, you can look at my record and see I've done thousands of songcover reversions.Doctorhawkes (talk) 04:47, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
- OK fine, yes I've been warned but I've also been thanked by other posters. Just a big fan of pop culture, and don't want to see it, forgotten. ccj (talk) 06:46, 30 August 2024 (UTC)
