Today Was a Fairytale
Can you please explain why you keep undoing my revisions? The song is an actual single, and as it stands my edits provide more information than what you've done. The Mach Turtle (talk) 19:24, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- Well, for starters, I was not aware that you were not supposed to include the Hot Digital Songs chart; I've seen it used elsewhere, and after all I am still new. And at any rate, my writing clearly isn't that poor, since you appear to have kept my sentence on her breaking the record untouched. The Mach Turtle (talk) 20:17, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- Fair enough, sir! The Mach Turtle (talk) 21:30, 27 January 2010 (UTC)
- Re - Canadian Adult charts
- I've removed the chart because it is not sourced nor is it a proper chart. I cannot understand therefore why you undid my removal of it. Lil-unique1 (talk) 21:03, 2 June 2010 (UTC)
Pop Songs
Is a component chart because it is AIRPLAY only, as Radio Songs is AIRPLAY only. However a charts like Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs is SALES AND AIRPLAY, as was the Pop 100 and they are not components. Consensus is to not include T40 Mainstream in charts. Please stop re-doing our revisions. Candyo32 (talk) 06:23, 23 February 2010 (UTC)
- You should research this stuff first. Country Songs is not soley airplay only. And I'm not picking and choosing which ones to delete IT IS WIKIPEDIA GUIDELINES TO NOT INCLUDE COMPONENT CHARTS. Check every FA or GA, do you see any components? I personally think that components, even airplay charts should be included. But I've been through this battle many times, and consensus on Wikipedia is to not include them. This is not just me saying this, I am just going by Wikipedia consensus. If you think this needs to be changed then you should take it up at Wikiproject Songs and or WP Charts. But for not component charts can only be referenced in the chart performance section if of some importance, but not at all in the charts section. Candyo32 (talk) 04:23, 24 February 2010 (UTC)
- This is Wikipedia guideline! Component charts are NOT to be used in charts section. Country Songs is not airplay only, and I myself am not "picking and choosing" it is standard on Wikipedia consensus per WP:BADCHARTS. If it were up to me, it would be included. So it doesn't matter if it will "go over well on those pages" its WP policy. If you to garner consensus about changing it, go over to the talk pages at WP:SONGS and Wikipedia:Record charts. I will remind you however, that these charts can be mentioned in the chart performance section within the paragraphs, but not in the chart tables themselves.Candyo32 (talk) 05:21, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
- It's weird to assume that I would go through your revision history in the first place, as I was going through country-pop crossover song articles b/c country music editors usually include the chart because they don't know it can't be included. Candyo32 (talk) 05:39, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
- I'm not even going to entertain this and just move on trying to improve Wikipedia. Candyo32 (talk) 11:26, 26 March 2010 (UTC)
- Now we get to use Pop Songs, which will seemingly make you happy and me to. Hopefully now you will stop harrassing me for trying to carry out Wikipedia policy. Anyway, its good news. Candyo32 (talk) 23:00, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
- If "stalking" is what you call it. So I assume Pop Songs can be added back to Need You Now, Today Was a Fairytale, and all those. Candyo32 (talk) 23:19, 1 April 2010 (UTC)
Response
I'm guessing this is about you linking the charts in the table on "I May Hate Myself in the Morning" ... well the answer is no, I don't have something against you. Its kinda a precedent that country music song articles do not have links in the chart table; outside the table is fine, but not within them. Just how its done.

Re: Billboard Charts
I accept it was a bit rushed. But KWW and Jayy08 also supported the renaming of billboard articles. And actually if you look at the discussion what is being considered is to rename all genre charts with the names they're given on billboard.com not billboard.biz because the latter is rarely seen by the public. The aim is to also distinguish from component and genre charts. I appreciate your feelings and i would actually like to ask you to take part in the discussion.

Singles
If Internet singles aren't singles, then just what the heck are they, then? Mackerni888 (talk) 22:27, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
No problem! EnDaLeCoMpLeX (talk) 22:42, 31 March 2010 (UTC)
New Billboard chart policy
As per consensus at WP:record charts there is a new guide to using Billboard Charts available at Billboard charts guide. Mainstream Top 40 (Pop Songs (formerly known just as Pop Songs) is no longer deemed a component chart - there is no evidence to support this motion. I will not be persuing a change in the name of charts.Lil-unique1 (talk) 19:28, 1 April 2010 (UTC)

"Fearless" is currently her lowest charting single on the Hot Country Songs chart. Why did you change the text in Fifteen? And1987 (talk) 01:34, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

File source and copyright licensing problem with File:Lambertseason8favorite.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Lambertseason8favorite.jpg. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, then a link to the website from which it was taken, together with a restatement of that website's terms of use of its content, is usually sufficient information. However, if the copyright holder is different from the website's publisher, their copyright should also be acknowledged.
As well as adding the source, we also need to know the terms of the license that the copyright holder has published the file under, usually done by adding a licensing tag. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Non-free content, use a tag such as {{non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.
If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged files may be deleted one week after they have been tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If the file is copyrighted under a non-free license (per Wikipedia:Fair use) then the file will be deleted 48 hours after 04:21, 14 April 2010 (UTC). If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ww2censor (talk) 04:21, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
Orphaned non-free image File:Need You Now International Album Cover.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:Need You Now International Album Cover.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG (talk) 19:26, 9 May 2010 (UTC)

Carrie Underwood discography

About Train
You told me in my talk page to tell you whenever somebody deletes one of my Train pages. Somebody re-directed my page for The Finish Line to the album it is featured on (Save Me San Francisco, as a bonus track). But I don't care anymore. I'm sick and tired of my edits being deleted because it isn't, "notable" enough. Something that is extremely subjective for something that is supposedly objective. I was going to make a page for the radio promo Save Me San Francisco, the song, but I doubt it won't be deleted because it isn't, "notable" enough (though it did chart).
While I will use wiki for personal research, I refuse to edit it anymore because it will probably be deleted for not being, "notable" enough. I'm going to make my own website (I'm going to ITT Tech this fall and taking a class on web design). Anyway, when I do make the website I'll tell you what it is called so you can go to it. It's going to have everything that I'm interested in, inlcuding a bunch of Train stuff. Hope to see you there!
Please take a read of WP:MUSIC and WP:GNG and understand that the song/article fails to meet the necessary notability guidelines for inclusion in the encyclopedia. These notability guidelines are well established and have been agreed upon by consensus. WP:COMMONSENSE is does not trump all other policies and guidelines and can not be applied in this instance. Common sense is that notability guidelines that have been agreed upon and are adhered to elsewhere remain in place in this case. Unless you can establish notability for the song, then the redirect should remain in place. Whilst it may be frustrating that an article that you feel is worthy, you must accept that there are established criteria for inclusion - and this particular article fails to meet these. It seems you even accept that the article should not exist... so I'm unsure as to your motives behind redirecting the article... Regards, Nouse4aname (talk) 15:14, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, but I disagree. The notability guidelines are well-established and are there for a reason. It is in the best interest of the encyclopedia that we have guidance on what is and what isn't notable. It would set a dangerous precedent if we decide to ignore this guidance just to appease certain editors. Imagine that, an editor has a page deleted, they complain, say they will quit, so suddenly we think, OK, let's restore the page. There would be no limits on what would be included then, which clearly is not in the best interests of Wikipedia. If this editor cannot accept the notability guidelines that are in place, what will they choose to ignore in future... I will leave this editor a note explaining the guidance and encouraging them to stay, but we simply cannot ignore established notability criteria just to maintain the contributions of one editor.

YouTube Friend Request Accepted
Hi, thanks for telling me about the ability to make articles inside your own wiki account. I had no idea you could do that... Maybe wiki isn't as bad as I thought. I just don't like the notable policy. If wiki was perfect, it would do two things: 1) remove the notable policy and allow anything truthful to be added and 2) remove subjective "professional" criticism from its media pages. No criticism of any kind of music is accurate unless it doesn't rate and is totally objective, but that is almost impossible. For example, wiki has links to two ratings of My Private Nation, my favorite Train album. AllMusic rated it 4 1/2 stars, and Rolling Stones rated it 1 star (both out of five). Both reviews are so subjective (I prefer AllMusic because they at least add in moods and styles of the albums they review) that it is really silly to add it to a website created by someone who of all things, is an Objectivist. If they did those two things to wikipedia, I would definitely add a lot more and be more involved in the community.
I had two friend requests on Youtube, so could you tell me which one you were? I accepted both, but if I know who you are I can PM you about updates I'm having in the future. For example, I bought a very rare, very expensive out-of-print Cats Don't Dance Soundtrack and I'm going to upload every track onto YouTube. It usually goes for over 100 dollars, but I got it for 68 dollars (including shipping). To hear some of the awesome music on the soundtrack, go to my YouTube profile and look at my favorites. My last favorite has one of my favorite songs from the movie, "Our Time Has Come". Once I get the soundtrack, I'm going to upload it on some file-sharing website so everybody can have it. I don't know if you like that kind of music, but if you do you should check it out. I'm also going to upload the entire soundtrack in order on Youtube so everybody can listen to it without having to download anything.
Now that I've cooled down and not so pissed off anymore, I was thinking about added the Hey Soul Sister EP that was released to iTunes recently to the EPs of Train. Hey Soul Sister is their most popular song so I'm guessing it is notable enough to get an article. What do you think?

Need You Now
Hi, nice to see someone interested in South Africa! The single is very popular here. We have numerous radio charts where you can monitor how well it does. Just google 'Take40sa' and 'Ofm Top 40'. The album has just reached a new peak of #4 here as well and should be certified Gold next week! -- Jazminerocks
