I'm not sure how to use this talk page- but I just wanted to say that I couldn't verify the information on Mariya Tekeuchi that she wrote a song called "Heart to Heart" by the Carpenters. I can't even find that the song exists let alone that it was the last song recorded by Karen Carpenter. There is no reference link/source cited. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 134.69.131.181 (talk) 21:42, 27 August 2017 (UTC)

Plastic Love recentism
I'm worried about the addition of Recentism trivia which doesn't belong in the lead, it might even be a violation of WP:VIDEOLINK since it's not an official YouTube upload.

Consider that she has sold 16 million albums (statistic from 9 years ago) — is the YouTube upload even relevant in an encyclopedic sense? One paragraph in a foreign newspaper with factual errors (claims she came out of retirement because of the YouTube upload—she obviously didn't) and a song review from a music site is not relevant in the larger scale.

 * It's not about recentism, but about what she is best known for to audiences outside of Japan. Until recently, she was largely unknown outside of Japan, before getting attention for "Plastic Love" in the last year or so. Also, the YouTube upload has been covered by reliable sources, making it notable. Nevertheless, I've moved the recent additions about "Plastic Love" to the Career section instead.

 * I removed the part about it from the lead (not important to her career), vaporwave/future funk (not in source) and a citation to the video itself (violates WP:VIDEOLINK as far as I can tell, unofficial upload). I don't agree that it's relevant in an encyclopedic sense, but I won't argue it further for the moment. RoseCherry64 (talk) 16:27, 29 October 2018 (UTC)


 * The following source confirms what I have said above, that she is best known for "Plastic Love" outside of Japan, so it should absolutely be mentioned in the lead. Maestro2016 (talk) 22:50, 28 December 2018 (UTC)
