References[edit]

Someone who worked on this article used a bunch of references/sources that are completely irrelevant to the things they claim to source. A good example is reference #3 (RE: producer/DJ Richard Morel.) When you click the link it goes to an Australian interview with Lauper that doesn't once even mention Morel. It seems like someone just wanted to put in content and assumed no one would check the references. Is there an appropriate tag for this? TheGoonSquad (talk) 12:00, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment[edit]

I've updated the "bring ya to the brink" page only to have it taken down. ALL the album photographs were taken by the artist Stefanie Schneider. relevent, true and should be included. CyndilayseggsCyndilayseggs (talk) 02:25, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, can you please provide a published source which can be used by other editors to verify the information? --Elonka 03:40, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank-you Elonka, you seem balanced and I appreciate that. I'm not that good at navigating this site so bare with me. I would love to give you "proof" of the edit I've been trying to make. If you take a look at the CD, you will see that Stefanie Schneider took all the photographs for the album. Is that enough proof. An ideal situation would be to have that information on the right hand side of the site page, but not sure how to accomplish that yet.

It's a conundrum why the other is taking down my edit. There is no rational reason why, as my edit is quite relevant. Stefanie Schneider holds all the original polaroid photos and rights to the pictures. You can view some of them at www.instantdreams.net go to the bottom right to find the Cindy Lauper shoot. Instantdreams is Stefanie Schneider's personal artist web site. Or you can go to a you tube video of the actual photo shoot in NYC. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JMr6dIAduGk Unfortunately it's in German as the film crew came from Berlin where Stefanie lives. but it's very apparent that Stefanie Schneider is seen taking the photos and if there is any more proof you need please let me know and I'll be happy to facilitate.

Thank again. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cyndilayseggs (talkcontribs) 21:22, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Hi, and thanks for the kind words.  :) To answer your question: Using the liner notes on a CD, a YouTube video, or someone's personal website, is what we call a "primary source". It's acceptable in certain limited situations, if the information is not challenged. If the information is challenged, then we may need something more solid, such as a secondary source, like a newspaper or magazine article from a reliable source which confirms the information. For now, add a source like this: <ref>(source)</ref>, and that will add the footnote number and a pointer down to the references section. So, for example, if you were wanting to cite the liner notes, you could use: <ref>Liner notes from ''Bring Ya to the Brink'' album, page 3, quote: "And thanks to Stefanie Schneider and Jack Schwartz. Stefanie did a great job on all the photos on this album, and Jack, thanks for the catering!"</ref> (or whatever the actual quote is). Make sense? --Elonka 21:32, 30 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
