Mariah Carey
Hi. I noticed your edits to the Mariah Carey article, and I have some concerns over them. Firstly, I don't think it is a good idea to order sections in articles based on the titles of the musician's albums. Per Manual of Style (headings) and Guide_to_layout, "sections and subsections that are very short will make the article look cluttered and inhibit the flow". Secondly, we generally refer to people by their surnames and not their first names, except in special cases (such as Madonna, Bjork etc.). Thirdly, I felt that your contributions were a little too detailed, and this is especially important to bear in mind as there has been a big effort to make sure that nothing unnecessary is left in this specific article. If you want to, however, you can add the sales figures for Carey's albums and singles to their respective articles (see Mariah Carey albums discography and Mariah Carey singles discography). Please leave a comment on Talk:Mariah Carey if you aren't sure about anything. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 20:56, 20 December 2005 (UTC)


 * Welcome to Wikipedia, and thanks for the contributions! We're always happy to have new Wikipedians with a serious interest in improving articles! As you can see, we're also very keen on maintaining a neutral point of view (or NPOV) in all articles. Unfortunately, some of your edits have not conformed to Wikipedia's NPOV policy, and have been reverted. There's a great article about the NPOV policy that has tips on how to effectively write about disparate points of view without compromising the NPOV status of the article as a whole. We thank you for your interest in helping Wikipedia to be well-rounded in its presentation of controversial subjects, and look forward to being able to fully incorporate your contributions!
