Hi. We don't get to promote our own books on Wikipedia; please don't do that again. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 16:45, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

Got that. Sorry. 2603:6011:4505:E1F1:2CD3:9E6E:C840:4A51 (talk) 17:17, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

What about National Karaoke Week? We first promoted it in Crain's and since then, it's been popularized by many KJs and outlets. 2603:6011:4505:E1F1:2CD3:9E6E:C840:4A51 (talk) 17:23, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion of any sort. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 19:21, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

I understand that but it is a national event worth mentioning. As for the karaoke book, it was not an attempt to promote it. It's been out 23 years. It was mentioned to give the mention of National Karaoke Week backgrround and credibility. Is there anyone else we can get involved int his discussion. 2603:6011:4505:E1F1:B134:4273:7606:4DC2 (talk) 21:16, 5 April 2022 (UTC)

Sure, just bring it up at Talk:Karaoke. Nothing wrong with mentioning National Karaoke Week, if it's supported by reliable sources. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 03:59, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

Thanks. I'm not sure what you mean by credible sources. We started it as mentioned earlier and merely mentioned publication of the book as that credible source. We didn't think the cook had commercial value as it was written so long ago. The only other source, if you can call it that, is Crain's and they published our announcement of National Karaoke Week based on the same. Sounds lke we're in a catch-22. 2603:6011:4505:E1F1:F4A3:5123:B2CE:DE71 (talk) 08:13, 6 April 2022 (UTC)

Bring it up at Talk:Karaoke. That's what that page is for. Logging into your account will increase your credibility there, too. --jpgordon^{𝄢𝄆𝄐𝄇} 14:35, 6 April 2022 (UTC)
