Mariah Carey
Hello there. I'm Journalist/Orane, one of the Administrators of Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, and encourage you to continue.

I'm sure you are aware that I have been reverting your addition to the intro of the article, because you keep putting it back. The information has been once again reverted, and I have put it in the body of the article. Please let it stay there.

Mariah Carey is a Featured Article, which means that it has been voted as one of the best on Wikipedia. As such, it needs to conform to certain standards, or it will be demoted. The info that you keep placing into the article does two things:
 * 1) it disrupts the flow of the intro.
 * 2) The introduction should give an indication of what is to come in the body of the article. Stuffing the introduction with information of sales and who has sold more only serve to lessen the value of the article. It is not important what rank she is in the US. We already have two mention of sales in the intro. We don't need a third mention. If you feel the need to stress her rank, then do so in the body of the article.
 * 3) We are not supposed to "emphasize achievements" in the intro. This presents a clear bias, and goes against our policies on neutrality (see Neutral point of view). (As a side note, we don't need four paragraphs of introduction; three is enough.)

If you have any concerns with the article, I encourage you to discuss them on the talk page of the article. Thank you. Oran e  (talk)  00:49, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

I am not as patient as Orane above, so, to keep it short, when you have been explained that Guiness corrected their error, please donot add that in the article, if you don't want to receive warnings or administrative actions against you. --Legolas ( talk 2 me ) 12:31, 13 July 2010 (UTC)

Talk:Madonna
This was absolutely unacceptable and a borderline abuse of our No personal attacks] and civility policy, even when I warned both of you to refrain from attacking each other, if you can't discuss in a constructive way. If I see another comment like this, the above block will come, and this time it will be indefinite. We don't need disruptive users in Wikipedia. — Legolas ( talk 2 me ) 04:09, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
