List of songs recorded by Nicole Scherzinger

 * Nominator(s): ≫  Lil- Unique1  -{ Talk  }- 22:08, 19 March 2021 (UTC)

I have recently worked really hard on bringing this list up to scratch, including updating its contents, a more accessible format, clearer referencing and high quality, non speculative content. I believe this could set a really good precedent for these types of article. ≫  Lil- Unique1  -{ Talk  }- 22:08, 19 March 2021 (UTC)


 * No copyright concerns with File:Nicole Scherzinger, 2011.jpg, File:The-Dream performing.jpg, File:Will.i.am in 2018.jpg, File:RedOne 2017 press image.jpg, File:Sean Combs.jpg, File:Enrique Iglesias 2011, 2.jpg, File:TobyGad2013.jpg, File:Akon in July 2015 (cropped).jpg,
 * Since I can't find any evidence that suggests otherwise, I will assume good faith that File:Tricky Stewart in 2020.jpg, File:Eros Ramazzotti.JPG, and File:Luis Fonsi (cropped).JPG are the uploaders' own work as claimed. Just change the Tricky caption so its link reads as Christopher "Tricky" Stewart instead of having the quotation marks come after his surname and before the formal first name
 * Neither file source for File:2008-11-15 Эндрю Ллойд Уэббер.jpeg shows this image (and the latter only gives me a 404 error). Either fix those or use another image.
 * I'm not sure whether File:David Garrett P1210415.jpg is appropriately licensed
 * Can't find File:A. R. Rahman.jpg within the given URL.
 * File:Kara DioGuardi.jpg isn't something I recommend when Kara's hair blends into the dark background. Try to find something else.
 * Maybe the lead could include some non-singles from Big Fat Lie like it does with Killer Love
 * There appears to be some stray text (namely a ".]") right before the alphabet sorting key
 * The table is overly singles-centric by marking which songs had single releases. This isn't supposed to be a singles discography. If anything, I'd just use some "non-album single" notices for tracks that were never included on any albums without color-coding it.

With that said, I oppose for now, but could change my mind following sufficient changes. SNUGGUMS (talk / edits) 02:57, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
 * I've addressed all of the above points ≫  Lil- Unique1  -{  Talk  }- 20:29, 20 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Looking better, but the table still comes off as too singles-centric. I wouldn't use the "Indicates single release" or "Indicates promotional single release" keys at all. While there are some similar lists that use those, it's not something I recommend. You'd be better off using color-coding for covers she recorded of other peoples' songs if anything. See List of songs recorded by Lady Gaga for a good example. I would also say songs written soley by her are fine to do this with, but that doesn't seem to be the case with any of these listings. As for images, you can also replace the uncertain David Garrett photo with File:Ludwigshafen 23.03.09 031.JPG. I have no qualms with File:Celebs at the screening of the A.R. Rahman's documentary 01.jpg, File:AndrewLloydWebber1.jpg, or File:Kara DioGuardi in 2010.jpg (which you've inserted as replacements for questionable uploads), and can't see any good reasont to doubt File:Snoop Dogg 2019 by Glenn Francis.jpg is indeed the uploader's own work.

 * Thanks . I do slightly disagree on the "singles-centric" comment - it is frankly a matter of fact that Scherzinger has been releasing music as a solo artist for 10 years with two albums under her belt and lots of singles that either feature on other artists' albums or don't belong to an album at all. I cannot change that - I agree colouring the singles does highlight them but that seems to be the preferred format for these types of list. ≫  Lil- Unique1  -{ Talk  }- 10:29, 22 March 2021 (UTC)


 * For what it's worth, I've previously seen "List of songs recorded by _______" pages both with and without markings of single releases. Not sure why other people put such emphasis on that status. On another note, "ill-fated" might not be the best tone for the "Eden's Crush" group. SNUGGUMS (talk</b> / <b style="color:#009900">edits</b>) 13:14, 22 March 2021 (UTC)
 * UPDATE Looking through the list again, I would mention what happened to Her Name Is Nicole. The prose doesn't make it clear whether this was scrapped entirely or any of its songs were retained for Killer Love. <b style="color:#009900">SNUGGUMS</b> (<b style="color:#009900">talk</b> / <b style="color:#009900">edits</b>) 22:05, 25 March 2021 (UTC)
 * Hello, I've addressed that too now ≫  Lil- Unique1  -{ Talk  }- 23:22, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

The page has now improved enough for me to support the nomination. Well done! <b style="color:#009900">SNUGGUMS</b> (<b style="color:#009900">talk</b> / <b style="color:#009900">edits</b>) 23:34, 25 March 2021 (UTC)

 * "Scherzinger recorded.." she
 * " will.i.am" is overlinked in the lead.
 * "success.[1] The lack of success" repetitive.
 * "solo effort" do you mean solo album?
 * "In 2009 Scherzinger was" -> "In 2009, she was..."
 * "English language version" hyphenate English-language as it's being used adjectively here.

 * "The second single, "Don't Hold Your Breath"..." this sentence uses the word "single" five times.
 * "then untitled" hyphenate.
