Little Richard
Regarding this revision:

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Little_Richard&diff=978081705&oldid=978074670

I'd stumbled upon this interview, which is what led me to the Wikipedia page:

There's also this:

Just thought you might find this interesting.

Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich
Hi, in your edit reinstating the singles table for Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich, what do you by "so much data in there not currently on the discography page". The only difference is that the full release dates haven't been included, which is inline with nearly every other discography and because I think it would look cluttered if included. However, I'm happy to add the release dates, if you think that would be a good idea? DPUH (talk) 21:25, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

Hi, I just think information about release dates from that era are often scarce, so it would be a shame for us to lose that detail as I doubt it is all in one place anywhere else online. That was how I felt, but you are right that most discographies on artist articles don't include them. I guess ideally we'd have pages for each charting single with that data. Humbledaisy (talk) 22:42, 19 May 2021 (UTC)

Yeah, I do agree that it would be a shame to get rid of that information, so I'll make it my next task to create articles for the singles. DPUH (talk) 07:34, 20 May 2021 (UTC)

Yellow Sub US trade ad
Hi Humbledaisy. I was really pleased when you uploaded that 1966 US "Yellow Submarine" trade ad, because there are so few free images available on the Beatles relative to the huge coverage the band are afforded on Wikipedia. So I'm disappointed to see the ad image was deleted quite recently. I'm not exactly a great admirer of the contributions made by the (sole) editor who weighed in at the discussion, anyway, but the issue he raised – that the ad image might have been created and used in the UK – is rubbish. The "Yellow Submarine" image was created by Capitol Records in the US for the ad and the song's sheet music; I have a source for that: Robert Rodriguez's 2012 book Revolver. The UK ads for the (EMI/Parlophone) single used an image of the Beatles from their Chiswick House promo shoot (eg p. 2 here). It's ridiculous to think that the Beatles or EMI would have used any Capitol-created packaging; as is well known, the Beatles hated how Capitol went about marketing their music.

It's a shame that no other editor managed to participate before the image was deleted. Are you able to find the ad as it appeared, without any subsequently added copyright line, and upload again? If so, I'd be happy to add details at Commons to ensure it's got staying power this time. Cheers, JG66 (talk) 21:59, 6 February 2022 (UTC)

Hi JG66, thanks for your message. I quite agree; before uploading it, I researched where else it appeared and it felt plain to me that it was a Capitol Records invention. I was disappointed when it was nominated for deletion but I felt appealing might've been a lost cause as I didn't have a source to hand. I'm having a look now for the image as I uploaded it and I'll update you when that's done. Thank you! Humbledaisy (talk) 23:05, 6 February 2022 (UTC)


 * That would be great. Give us a ping as and when? Thanks! JG66 (talk) 20:56, 7 February 2022 (UTC)


 * Hi JG66, it's uploaded now. Let me know if I've got anything wrong, I'd be happy to edit it. https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:YellowSubTradeAd.jpg Humbledaisy (talk) 00:45, 9 February 2022 (UTC)


 * That's fabulous. I've added more detail at Commons, including comparison with the UK ad. How's that? JG66 (talk) 01:54, 9 February 2022 (UTC)

Thanks for Balham edits
Thank you for your delightful additions to the article "Balham - Gateway to the South"! May British humour long wave its, erm, flag, as it were, erm. David Spector (talk) 23:52, 7 July 2022 (UTC)

Hi David, thank you so much! I am currently working on making a page for The Best of Sellers (I recently did Songs for Swingin' Sellers) and I was pleased to find that the sketch already had a page. I hope you don’t mind my edits. :) Humbledaisy (talk) 08:55, 8 July 2022 (UTC)

Snowdon
@Humbledaisy, Please discuss controversial edits on its talk page, especially edits that have clearly been already reverted. Answering your questions, cause why not;
 * MOS:BOLDTITLE states If an article's title is a formal or widely accepted name for the subject, display it in bold as early as possible in the first sentence. Article title is Snowdon, and per MOS:BOLDALTNAMES, alternative names go after.
 * Snowdon is a WP:Good Article, MOS compliance is part of its criteria.


 * The NPA "doesn’t have statutory powers in the field of place names." therefore they cannot change any legal name (if that is what you mean by "official"), nor does the mountain even have a legal name. Their November announcement is merely a marketing re-branding IMO. Like the use of Cymru by the Wales national football team.


 * I dispute "or" is a "relegation", English Wikipedia uses English, like why it is Germany not Deutschland. If Yr Wyddfa gains more common use in English, then Wikipedia will follow suit then (not before, Wikipedia does not advocate). "or" is actually a overpromotion if following MOS:BOLDALTNAMES, which prefers "also known as". So now may have to change it back to that to meet MOS.


 * Both Uluru and Snowdon's leads are the same, they follow the MOS, the article titles are listed first, although what happens there should not affect Snowdon. Uluru's name was accepted to be the common name at its talk, Yr Wyddfa has not yet been proven to be at this stage. It can in the future but not as of now.

Even if you do not like a guideline, if it remains one, the argument to follow it is stronger, if you want changes to the guidelines, discuss at their relevant talk pages. Thanks  Dank Jae  23:07, 25 January 2023 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:A Bus for a Bus on the Bus.jpg
Thanks for uploading File:A Bus for a Bus on the Bus.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Hey there - a request for help
Hello! I must compliment you on having found sources to back up your claim on the "sophisti-pop" status of Aztec Camera. I doubted their existence, but you proved me wrong, and I am quite content to see sophisti-pop listed on Aztec Camera's page now that it is properly sourced. Though perhaps we might have been introduced under more auspicious circumstances than we were, I found our exchanges to be quite worthwhile and, ultimately, successful in forming a consensus. So it is that I come to you now, in hopes we may work together once more to help Wikipedia along. Currently, the page for "synth-pop" describes it as a "subgenre of new wave music", which, I trust you recognise, is not as it ought to be. I'm trying to get the page changed so that it describes synth-pop as what we all know and agree it to be - a kind of pop music. If you could leave a comment stating your support, I'd be most grateful. The page is here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Synth-pop#%22Synth-pop_is_a_subgenre_of_new_wave_music%22_must_be_changed

Cheers and many thanks! Janglyguitars (talk) 03:36, 11 May 2023 (UTC)

Hi! Thank you very much, and I must offer my apologies as I feel I may have come across as a little waspish in regards to AC's "sophisti-pop" status. I quite agree about synth-pop - I've added a comment on there with just a few examples to state the case that it is not a sub-genre of new wave. Humbledaisy (talk) 19:08, 11 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Well, it seems I've now gotten myself into a ridiculous situation with my stubbornness. I don't want to drag you in, but if you could make any more comments in support of me or my arguments I'd appreciate it. Thanks, Janglyguitars (talk) 20:33, 25 May 2023 (UTC)

ITN nomination rules
Hey Humbledaisy! I see that you did an edit (diff), where you moved Michael Parkinson's nomination to the 17th, in the edit summary you said "Put the Parkinson nomination in the right place as it was nominated today, not on the 16th". In case you are unaware, ITN nominations are supposed to be put in the section for the date of the event, not the nomination date, per the how to nominate an item section, which says Find the correct section below for the date of the event (not the date nominated). Since Parkinson died on the 16th, the original nomination was done correctly. This is a common mistake (one I made for my first nomination) but I hope you know from now on how items are supposed to be nominated. Sincerest well-wishes!
