Singles infoboxes
I'm seeking an opinion. All of Vanessa Hudgens's singles have been merged into their parent articles (strangely enough, I seem to be prevailing on the idea that singles should be merged into parent albums, just like WP:MUSIC says). For Identified, I used a briefer style of infobox (see this). Same with V (Vanessa Hudgens album). On Identified, it has been replaced with a full infobox. I feel opposed, because I don't see how it can scale to the typical Disney album with five singles released. Opinions?Kww (talk) 22:15, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Good to know I'm not crazy. I'll probably not push it on albums with only one released single, and struggle more mightily when it would mean 3 or 4 infoboxes in the same article.Kww (talk) 22:34, 31 August 2008 (UTC)
 * I know some people interpret it that way. I think that applies when there is a separate single article and album article, and I've been successful in arguing that interpretation so far. If the illustration has to disappear, the resistance to eliminating all of these single articles littering the ground would skyrocket.Kww (talk) 00:52, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
 * People reflexively delete the images because they assume that there's a single article. I just restore and leave a message with the deleting editor explaining my view. No edit wars yet ... the image has always been left alone after that.Kww (talk) 01:14, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

My Shoes
Would you double-check My Shoes for me? I can't find a trace of it charting anywhere, but editors I normally trust have updated the chart numbers.&mdash;Kww(talk) 04:33, 12 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Please?&mdash;Kww(talk) 20:43, 14 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Without the fake chart info, it's not a standalone article. Just redirected it, and In Love for a Day at the same time.&mdash;Kww(talk) 21:34, 14 October 2008 (UTC)

WP:BADCHARTS
Just thought you might find this new shortcut useful.&mdash;Kww(talk) 21:19, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
 * Start a discussion on Wikipedia talk:CHARTS, and outline why you think it should be added. We'll see if there's a consensus to add it. If we start adding charts based on personal opinion, it's likely to start trouble. If we always make sure there's a consensus before each addition, life will go more smoothly for all.&mdash;Kww(talk) 20:12, 31 October 2008 (UTC)

Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles
Hey there, this is a reply to your edit here. The Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles is in fact, a component chart; a component chart is a chart which is used to calculate a more primary chart, and in this case, would be the Billboard Hot 100, as stated in the article for the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles. If you think otherwise, please reply here and let me know. Diverse Mentality  23:07, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
 * As far as I know, though the Bubbling Under Hot 100 Singles is a component chart, its addition is justifiable when the song did not manage to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. Funk Junkie (talk) 23:19, 7 November 2008 (UTC)

Allan Holdsworth album edits
Although helpful as a temporary solution, I have replaced the Amazon-derived cover art with my own scans, as I've been doing with many other pages, which include (95% of time) the name of the graphic artist(s).

Furthermore, I reverted back to the original wording used for the opening paragraph, as the phrase "released in [year] by [record label]" doesn't really make sense; the way I see it is that the album has been released by the artist, on a record label.

Also, I have re-linked the name of the producer (in this case, Holdsworth himself) within the infobox as per Albums. If there is a movement to stop linking their name, I've yet to see it made public.

Finally, adding "British guitarist" seems rather unnecessary because the artist's nationality is already stated in the opening paragraph to their own article. If nationalities were added for everything, we'd soon be seeing "[Title] is a film starring American actress [name], Canadian actor [name] and British actress [name]", etc.

Hopefully none of that came across as too brash. I just like to see consistency within album pages, but collaborative efforts are always welcome! Mac dreamstate (talk) 19:33, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

Apologies for the orphaning!
Silly me, I failed to notice that I could've simply uploaded my own scans onto the pages you'd already made. Still learning! Sorry about that. Mac dreamstate (talk) 03:57, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Chart guide
You might find User:Kww/goodcharts a useful reference. I'm interested in getting feedback before I start trying to make it a component of WP:Record charts.&mdash;Kww(talk) 15:52, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I'll fill in those missing links. Feel free to fill in any and all holes that you notice. As for the questions:
 * All the sites like www.spanishcharts.com and www.lescharts.com are mirrors of the official lists, and are owned and operated by Ultratop. The Ultratop search functions return all those charts.
 * Red means "Bad list on this archive", yellow means "an OK list, but don't put into new articles because the site is problematic", green star means that it's a fine archive, and OK to use as a source for all articles.

Italian Charts
excuse me, but isn't musica&dischi the official italian chart? I think it does, because in Italy there's also a program titled "Hitlist Italia" which reveles the official italian chart. I don't know, but which is that real? FIMI or achart/musica&dischi??--Dindo94 (talk) 19:44, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

So aCharts publishes a "false" italian charts?--Dindo94 (talk) 20:09, 1 February 2009 (UTC)


 * Ok, thank you so much; so αCharts.us doesn't publish "fale" italian chart but a chart which isn't okay for wikipedia!... bye bye --Dindo94 (talk) 20:22, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

The Fame
I THINK YOU SHOULD TAKE A CLOSER LOOK AT WP:albums AND READ PROPERLY BEFORE TRYING TO ADVISE OTHERS. IT CLEARLY STATES:
 * 1) THE LAYOUT YOU ARE REFERING TO IS STRICTLY FOR HIP-HOP ALBUMS, WHICH THE FAME IS NOT.
 * 2) ONCE A CONTRIBUTOR TO A SONG HAS BEEN LISTED ONCE, THEY SHOULD ONLY BE MENTIONED BY SURNAME SUBSEQUENT TIMES
 * 3) IF AN ARTIST/CONTRIBUTOR HAS CREDITS FOR THE WHOLE ALBUM THEY SHOULD BE MENTIONED AT THE TOP OF THE TRACKLIST ONCE

SEE Doll Domination or Human for examples of what track-lists should look like.

(Lil-unique1 (talk) 20:45, 14 April 2009 (UTC))

Your edits regarding the track-listing are of your own personal opinion and not of general wikipedia consensus. It is commonly done in album articles that were someone has contributed to all of the tracks they should be accredited at the top. Why are you so against this edit? and why do you think people will be confused by this? the small brackets help to distinguish songwriters/producers from artists which feature on the tracks.

Gaga Fame
Hi, I see we are in an edit war at the moment, so I am here to solve this. In my edit sum. I state to discuss this? the answer is yes. Okay I know Gaga sings sythpop, however she also sings electro-pop and dance-pop why is then it is not on there because we only use genres like that in the singles genre not on the album. You see electronic and pop =electro-pop. Dance + pop=Dance-pop so synth+pop=synthpop and so on. I know synth and euro are not genres that is why I redirected them. I am going to change it unless you I am wrong. Thanks.Cloverfield Monsta (talk) 06:34, 25 April 2009 (UTC)
 * Hmm...okay we could try synthesizer (genre ?) and Europe music but that does not sound good..otherwise I agree, do want you want.Cloverfield Monsta (talk) 22:56, 25 April 2009 (UTC)

Re:Gaga
You are correc,t electronic is not a genre but a "type of music"(therefore musical genre), it also defines the whole range of electr-pop, electro, electrofunk, elecrtronica, etc. SO that is why I used electronic. Do not use wikipeida as a source, please. This may be contridictary but I would rather use electro http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electro_music then electronica. If you want to change the genres please disscus which you should of done in the first place. I will create a disscusion and change it until a solution is found thank you. And yes there is a (hole XD) lot od spelling mistakes. Cloverfield Monsta (talk) 04:21, 30 April 2009 (UTC)

Headstrong Neiva
I've been having so much fun with JuStar and Petergriffin9901 that I hadn't noticed Headstrong Neiva was back. What do you look for to classify an editor as being Headstrong Neiva as opposed to the generic Brazilian Disney Channel fan?&mdash;Kww(talk) 01:29, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
 * To be honest, I suspect that you are making a common mistake. I think there are probably a dozen different Brazilian children that regularly edit Disney articles on Wikipedia, and another dozen Portuguese kids. It's pretty easy to decide that they are all the same person. If you take the time to sort them carefully, you get to where you can decide which one is FortyFootEcho, which one is Juanacho, which one is MSoldi, etc. Still, it doesn't matter much whose hand the sock is on if you are convinced it's a sock.&mdash;Kww(talk) 02:04, 31 May 2009 (UTC)

Headstrong neiva
Yet another sockpuppet: User:Stripped-xtina. This one, however, created two articles I'm not sure what to do with. Both are (in my opinion) very frivolous "concert tours" lists that I'm very tempted to nominate for deletion. I do see sources in them, however. They just don't seem notable to me in the slightest. What do you think? - eo (talk) 19:37, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
 * P.S. Oh, heh, the articles are Raven-Symoné concert tours and Ashley Tisdale concert tours. - eo (talk) 19:43, 17 June 2009 (UTC)
 * Thanks for your response. I've nominated both for deletion so we'll see what happens.  Later. - eo (talk) 13:24, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Yamh91
My initial guess would be that its a sock. Probably wouldnt hurt to put the Yamh91 tag on the IP's user page. I just blocked Yamh91 this afternoon for being disruptive, incidentally. - eo (talk) 19:05, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
 * 189.248.13.240 is clearly a Yamh91 sock. The range is too broad to block, though. Luna Santin and I have discussed it here. Were it solely my decision, Yamh91 would have been indefed long ago, and 189.248 hardblocked for a good while. Not many worthwhile edits come out of that range.&mdash;Kww(talk) 22:13, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Hi, I would like to sincerely apologize for recently using rollback on your edit to Just Dance. I don't fully remember what happened, but I do know that I did not intend to use the rollback feature. In no way do I think your last edit to the page was vandalism, and I would again like to sincerely apologize for my mistake. Pokerdance (talk/contribs) 04:10, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Janet Jackson Discipline
Please don't change the label again to Island Def Jam Music Group, the label group. This is not a label, it's a collection of labels that forms a business group. Her label was Island specifically, even though legally, her contract may have been with the greater group. Imperatore (talk) 16:30, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Table format for Anastacia albums!
Hi there! i noticed your edits & reverted them! Yes, the table format is needed and is just 1 out of 3 possible formats that can be used according to Wikipedia ! It makes it clear who wrote the songs & who produced them! Please do not change the formats just because you don't like them! (MariAna Mimi 19:41, 29 August 2009 (UTC))

Please don't add back the "Biography" heading - the whole article is a bio so the heading is redundant. Thanks. – ukexpat (talk) 20:28, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
