Source
How should I give a source for a song I bought and listen too? -.- -- $pongeP@ppy (talk) 18:23, 7 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Because you need A source as per WP:NOR, period standard rule on Wikipedia. AdabowtheSecond (talk) 11:45, 8 September 2012 (UTC)


 * You don't understand. How should I give a source if I bought a song? -- $pongeP@ppy (talk) 14:23, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
 * everything needs to be sourced that you have the song doesn't make it reliable AdabowtheSecond (talk) 16:33, 8 September 2012 (UTC)


 * Why? Do you think I'm lying or something? Why would I pick the specific number 2:48 as run time? I could have easily peaked 3:54 or 4:11 as the run time for the song. -- $pongeP@ppy (talk) 18:21, 8 September 2012 (UTC)
 * I don't even know you just following standard guidelines everything needs to be sourced no WP:NOR is permitted. AdabowtheSecond (talk) 01:42, 9 September 2012 (UTC)

Adding Glee
This is the third time TheTruthiness has added the claim that in the Glee cover of the song, the backgrounds sung by the Dalton Academy Warblers were voiced by the Tufts Beelzebubs. This time, a citation is brought in from 2011 as "proof"—a bare ref in an article currently being reviewed for Good Article status, and a sure way to sink said review if not fixed—back when the Bubs were in fact voicing the Warblers. The problem is that this was only the practice for the second season of Glee. The information is old and obsolete.

For the third season, the Warbler numbers were not recorded by the Bubs—the Bubs have said so themselves—and if TheTruthiness has any reliable source that says the Bubs have returned for the current, fourth season of Glee, I'd love to know about it; it would be useful for the relevant Glee episode articles. But unless he can supply it, I'm going to request that he stop trying to make an unsupported and unlikely claim in this article. I'd also be more impressed if he had attempted to follow WP:LEAD, a requirement for Good Articles and aspiring ones—"Apart from trivial basic facts, significant information should not appear in the lead if it is not covered in the remainder of the article."—and find a place in the article to put the Glee rendition. Featuring the Glee cover in the lead strikes me as WP:UNDUE: it was not released as a single and did not chart on the Hot 100.

I'd be interested to hear what other authors working on this article think about this. BlueMoonset (talk) 05:07, 14 January 2013 (UTC)
 * I concur with everything you wrote and have reverted the user. &mdash; Robin   (talk)  00:37, 15 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Those issues looked fixed (didn't mention Bubs, wasn't in lead) and you reverted, stop making false statements. --66.203.207.66 (talk) 20:45, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
 * You misinterpreted my action; nevertheless lead, bubs the cover version still needs to be sourced per WP:NOR. &mdash; Robin   (talk)  20:54, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
 * Again User:TheTruthiness, bare urls cannot be used as this article is a current GAN. Please show me where the article is missing sources. The Fox Flash source (the only appropriate full citation you gave) does not say anything about a cover version of the song. &mdash; Robin   (talk)  22:28, 18 January 2013 (UTC)
