Absurd claims from non-reliable sources[edit]

There's a reason Allkpop is forbidden on Wikipedia - because its translations are terrible and unreliable, and they themselves even admit they do not check a single thing they print for accuracy. It's crap, people. Stop using it. They made a rather absurd claim that Shinee is the first foreign artist in 44 years to have 3 number one singles on the Oricon weekly charts, supposedly quoting Oricon's site. I have to think this is probably a very grievous error in translation, as the assertion is absolutely ridiculous. Shinee isn't even the first foreign artist to have three number ones from one album. They're not even the first Korean artist to do so. I don't know who was, but you can look back just a few years and see 4 #1s from TVXQ's The Secret Code alone. Shinee probably was the first to do something, but until a real honest-to-goodness legitimately bilingual person translates it from Japanese to English, we won't know what it is.

Proposed merge with Replay (Kimi wa Boku no Everything)[edit]

THis article really doesn't say much of anything, just says, in both prose and table form, chart placements and track listings. Since most of the article (and its title) is, ironically, about the much-less-famous Japanese version of the song, it'd merge to that album, but a redirect would be created using the Korean name to go to Replay (EP). Per WP:NSONG and WP:SONGS, song articles require more than song notability, they require a lot of substantial info, not just "statistics" and packaging details, and most songs should be merged to their albums.
