Jump (Madonna song)

Comment. This might be Madonna's next single and might come out in the Fall, only evidence is a junior writer at Billboard's blog and that's not a reliable source. It might deserve an article if that happens, right now it's like somebody who might be elected to Congress. VivianDarkbloom 23:39, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete for now Wikipedia is not a crystal ball and the citation is not appropriate  hoopydink  Conas tá tú? 00:10, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. DarthVad e r 01:25, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Keep or Merge - this article has been created, merged and re-created several times. Apparently now there is a source saying it will be a single.  If release is confirmed then I see no problem keeping it.  -- eo 01:58, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 * KeepI already saw three announcements about "Jump" being the 4th single from Confessions of the Dancefloor from Absolute Madonna, All About Madonna and Billboard. I think we should keep it.--hottie 02:51, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 * So add these references to the article. --Richard 17:05, 18 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep I think everyone here is completely missing the issue here. Prehaps, it is a crystal ballism listing it as a future release. However, it is a confirmed song that is from a notable album and said song was used in a motion picture, as far as I can tell. If this article hinged on the fact of the song being released later on, then yes, this is a crystal ballism. However, the fact that it was used in a movie, and a notable artist co-wrote it, it appears notable enough to remain up for now. Yank  sox  04:50, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Strong Keep What proof is there to suggest that "Jump" will NOT be released as a single? All signs point to "yes", and Billboard is a major music publication, and the writer is a regular columnist. BGC 16:24, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 * We don't need to prove that "Jump" will NOT be released as a single. You cannot prove that it will be.  What you can prove is that it is rumored or expected to be released as a single.  The Billboard reference does not say when.  Provide a reference that predicts when and you can include that in the article. --Richard 17:03, 18 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Keep! "Jump" is scheduled for release as the fourth single. Do you not see the reference? 64.231.66.47 03:09, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep, not crystal ballism. --badlydrawnjeff talk 14:10, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep as requested by other people. Ramseystreet 12:25, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Crystal ballism as-is; redirect to the album until the single is released. This is not a keep vote. Stifle (talk) 15:43, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Could you explain how it is "crystal ballism as-is?" It has sourcing, and meets the requirements at WP:NOT, #1 in the relevant section of future events. --badlydrawnjeff talk 15:45, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep per User:YankSox assuming that it really was in the movie "The Devil Wears Prada" which is being released like now. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball so I have removed text that indicates future release. --Richard 02:25, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
 * On further research and reflection, I agree with badlydrawnjeff on this basis: The song is on the album and assuming that it was in the movie as reported, then it is arguably notable.  What needs to be addressed is the "crystal ball" nature of the prediction that it will be released in Autumn 2006.  The website reference to "Ask Billboard" does NOT say that.  It simply says that "Jump" will be the fourth single released from the CD.  Find another reference that says that it is rumored or expected to be released in Autumn 2006.


 * Strong Keep Billboard has announced it as the fourth single off her latest album. It was in the hit movie 'The Devil Wears Prada,' why delete it now, only to re-write it in a few months? AceofHearts 01:46, 18 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete Put back when and if it becomes notable.--Runcorn 19:55, 19 July 2006 (UTC)
