Constant Vandalism

I'm gonna need you to put a semi-protection on both Trina discography and Mary J. Blige discography. Too many vandalism going on on those pages lately, those IP Vandals are up to no good Hometown Kid (talk) 20:01, 2 February 2011 (UTC)

We got another problem, this user Kiddi92 is on a rampage. He's been vandalizing every article that has to do with Trina. Her discography, her own article, and all her album articles, by adding in unsourced content. I feel like this guy could be the same culprit that had been blocked before for the same reason. It's the exact same disruptive edits he makes. This guy doesn't deserve another warning or another chance, because I know he's made numerous accounts to evade blocking. Please block him now. And if you see on his talk page, he's been warned about this a few times and still continues. Hometown Kid (talk) 12:12, 6 February 2011 (UTC)

S/he got a final warning and stopped editing two days ago. I'll keep an eye on it, if more vandalism happens let me know. - eo (talk) 12:01, 7 February 2011 (UTC)

Take a look at Worth It (Wanessa Song). I'm inclined to semi-protect it, but people would probably scream WP:INVOLVED at me. So far as I can tell, none of the claimed charts are valid, and it would be good to have that double-checked at the very least.—Kww(talk) 20:09, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

Editing conflict involving annual R&B charts articles

I noticed that you deleted the chart comparison sections. The reason those were there is to enhance the article from just being a boring chronological list. In addition, they were to give a clear idea of which particular songs also charted at #1 on other Billboard related charts per se the crossover detail. I feel it is neccessary that they are there. The Billboard chart books (i.e. Book of Top 40 R&B and Hip-Hop Hits) make indications of this as well; example, at the end of the book on the R&b chart calendar there is a star showing which ones crossed over to #1 on the Hot 100 chart. Think about it now. GETONERD84 (talk) 15:31, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

I don't find them particularly useful, although if there is a consensus to keep them, then go ahead. I think the more important task for these lists is to bring them up to the featured-list formatting — quoting the song titles, placing them into tables, researching sources and writing up the year-end analysis with images. - eo (talk) 15:35, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

Wiz Khalifa discography

Can you please put a semi-protection on that also. The pesky annoying IP Users keep reverting my edits on the US certification for "Black and Yellow", replacing gold with "2x Platinum" and are not obeying the source I provided. It's been certified Gold so far and already has over a two million digital downloads. It should be certified double platinum by now but it's not yet and that's what these IP Vandals aren't getting, and I've been checking the source daily, it's not yet certified double platinum.

RE: Wiz Khalifa discography

Hello,

I do not know how to communicate through Wikipedia and somehow I was linked to your page so that's the reason for the so-called, "vandalism." I have no intention of doing such just trying to resolve this semi-protected lock on the Wiz Khalifa discography page when I have in fact contributed a lot as compared to others.

My next 2 edits would be:

|"Young, Wild & Free" |Snoop Dogg featuring Wiz Khalifa |High School

& *2011: The Green Carpet Tour

P.S. I only edited the "Gold" certification for the single due to reading a direct tweet from the artist's personal Twitter account; http://www.hiphopweekly.com/100303-newsite/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Fullscreen-capture-242011-21728-PM.bmp.jpg

Shame Shame Shame

Hi, just got my own access to billboard.biz, so re-checking all the information as for CCP. Found also that "Shame Shame Shame" chart position we have been discussing months ago. The title charted on the Billboard's Global Dance Tracks... (http://www.billboard.biz/bbbiz/charts/chart-search-results/singles/3087251), so shame on you! ,-) Just kidding here, never mind, and hope you're alrite Uzerakount (talk) 21:32, 16 March 2011 (UTC) PS: am kinda disapointed about that billboard.biz.

What's Love Got to Do with It?

Hi, I merged this song because it clearly said it's a "remake" - been in an edit war of sorts since, even though I made clear my reasons for merging - same song different version. I did post my reasoning on an edit and the editor's talkpage. Rather than reverting again, can you cast you eye over the the two articles? One of the relevant edits is which substantiates my claim that the article said "remake" is here. The editor has since written that the original song is sampled (an edit he made while "undoing" my merges. Don't mind if you don't agree with me, just like to see an end of the conflicting edits. Thanks for your time. --Richhoncho (talk) 22:06, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

I called it a remake because I wasn't exactly sure what else to call it. It share's the same title and samples the original, but like "Just a Friend 2002" and "Just the Two of Us", it has completely different lyrics. And what is the deal with remakes anyway? How come, for example, two notable movies Psycho (1960) and Psycho (1998) don't have to share the same page, but two notable songs do? Live and Die 4 Hip Hop (talk) 22:20, 16 March 2011 (UTC)

I would keep them separate and change the wording perhaps. While I strongly agree with merging cover versions, sometimes I think there is a grey area. This may be one of them, since Warren G basically replaced all of the lyrics and the only thing used from the original was the chorus. I definitely believe in a strong difference between a direct cover and a case of sampling. I'd remove the word "remake" and replace with "interpolation" - the two examples LaD4HH gave are good, I think another example would be "Right Round" by Flo Rida... the chorus and melody are obviously from "You Spin Me Round" by Dead or Alive but it certainly is not a cover version. I'd also remove the Warren G succession box from the original article (it's still there on the bottom). LaD4HH, songs are not the same as films. It's been repeatedly decided by consensus that articles should be about songs, not versions or singles. No matter who performs it, a song is still a song is still a song, and different recorded versions of it are part of its history. The concept isn't really the same for films — scripts are rewritten and changed, titles are changed, etc. I think that if the film scenario was similar enough to songs then consensus would have been reached by now to merge them in the same way. - eo (talk) 11:18, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks, Eric, I accept your findings! I have removed the Warren G cat from the original and added the writer cats to the Warren G, other than that I have nothing else to add on either article. --Richhoncho (talk) 13:23, 17 March 2011 (UTC)

Jennifer Lopez genre vandalism

Hi. An IP user has been persistently (and inaccurately) removing the pop genre in a few Jennifer Lopez pages (namely If You Had My Love, Feelin' So Good, Ain't It Funny, Jenny from the Block, All I Have (song), Baby I Love U!, Get Right, This Is Me... Then and Rebirth (Jennifer Lopez album)). The problem is, the IP address changed each time they would edit the pages (some of those being 93.149.195.35 (talk · contribs), 93.149.195.38 (talk · contribs), 93.149.194.222 (talk · contribs), 93.149.194.139 (talk · contribs) and most recently, 93.150.229.252 (talk · contribs)). I've warned them all, but since they show no sign of stopping, I believe it'd be a pain in the ass to block them everytime a new IP address shows up. Do you think you could have the aforementioned articles protected for a while? Any other ideas will be appreciated. SnapSnap 01:23, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

They're probably the same user - you may wan to take this to Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations and request an IP range block. If that doesn't work then we can start semi-protecting them. Normally I'd semi-protect first, but since we'd (probably) need to do all the singles and albums articles, let's try the other first. - eo (talk) 15:16, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

I soft-blocked 93.149.194.0/23. Let's see what that does.—Kww(talk) 16:01, 20 March 2011 (UTC)

Are you sure we need a sockpuppet investigation first? It's pretty obvious that they're the same user, I just don't know how the IP address changes everytime they edit the pages. But if you feel that opening an investigation is necessary, then I'll do it. SnapSnap 17:05, 21 March 2011 (UTC)

Advice needed

A problem has cropped up, and I need some advice on how to go with it. A while ago, WP:Record charts (which incorporates WP:GOODCHARTS and WP:BADCHARTS) got moved to Wikipedia:Manual of Style (record charts). That's causing some trouble, with some editors claiming that since it is now an MOS page, it can't possibly be viewed as a guideline related to article content (and, in an even more bizarre thought process, that it only can apply to the tables of charts, not other text relating to charts). Take a look at this example: like I say in the discussion, I can see the argument that it's a sufficiently special case to override the guideline, but I still find the argument that the guideline doesn't apply at all to be surreal.

In a sense, they have a point: MOS pages don't usually contain anything related to source reliability, notability, or anything like that: they are strictly where to put hyphens, dashes, and the like. WP:GOODCHARTS and WP:BADCHARTS don't belong in that kind of guideline: they've got nothing to do with formatting, and everything to do with source reliability and notability.

I can easily split the thing up, probably by making WP:GOODCHARTS, WP:BADCHARTS, and WP:USCHARTS independent guidelines, and focusing Wikipedia:Manual of Style (record charts) strictly on the table formats. I'm worried that I would be viewed as a biased editor, and wind up with a backlash that made all three lose credibility. Do you think I'm being paranoid? Do WP:GOODCHARTS and WP:BADCHARTS have enough buy-in by enough editors that I can put them someplace else and maintain them as guidelines? Or am I just better off hoping that this kind of fight never shows up again?

I'll take this to the guideline talk page before doing anything, but just wanted to have a slightly quieter discussion here before I do anything at all.—Kww(talk) 00:24, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Wow, that argument was exhausting to read (and thank goodness for Jam1991 to finally answer the question properly). I don't think you're being paranoid and I certainly don't think that you are exhibiting any kind of bias - you've done more to create and develop these guidelines than anyone else. That said, perhaps a split is necessary — something to apply to content and the other to deal with style and display of tables. The argument that was presented on the "Friday" Talk Page was unusual, but perhaps it will pop up more often if internet memes and the like make continued impact on the iTunes charts. If you do propose a split I will back you up on it, so please keep me in the loop. - eo (talk) 11:47, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Take a look at User:Kww/recordcharts (which would go back at WP:Record charts) and User:Kww/MOS (which would replace Wikipedia:Manual of Style (record charts)).—Kww(talk) 20:36, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

This is getting weird

You removed an image again saying that it violates WP:FU. Did You actually look at the image? How did You come to the conclusion that this is a Fair use image? Did You ever check the image's licensing? Even after being reverted and given notice You still claimed it as a fair use image. So do You always revert without verifying the factuality of Your action? As an admin I would have expected more diligence. Please explain. feydey (talk) 09:31, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

It's an album cover and as such its copyrighted. It should only be used in the article pertaining to the album itself, not as part of the artists' discography page. It also should not be here on my Talk Page, so I've removed it. - eo (talk) 11:14, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

You say, quote: "It's an album cover and as such its copyrighted." - please give me a source for this claim. Your edit summaries were: "pls dont do this, WP:FU, non free images not used this way in discog artiucles)" and "WP:FU" - do You know as an admin the difference between an "fair use image" and a "public domain" one?

Thank you so much for your time. -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 20:56, 9 April 2011 (UTC)

Hi there, sorry for missing your last request. I looked within the .biz site, and while I can view the current Boxscore list, I am unable to search any archives on past weeks (or I cannot find where to do so while I clicked around). I can search song, album, video and artist chart archives but not these, it seems. Where did the sources come from previously? If this info is only available via a paid subscription, I don't see how it could be properly sourced in the first place. - eo (talk) 15:39, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Don't worry about it. Thank you very much for answering and maybe asking Legolas to guide you through searching the archives would help. The sources came from the same place, but Legolas said they were not sourced properly. I still think it is reliable because Billboard is a highly reliable source and I guess maybe it's present on magazines too. I have no idea. Anyways, thank you very much for taking the time to answer and please ask Legolas how to search the archives. Thank you :) -- ipodnano05 * ^{leave@message} 00:17, 15 May 2011 (UTC)

Vandalizm?

I don't think that my edits were vandal. Firstly, I've made them for good faith. Secondly (main), no one from users, who had undone my edits, wrote about their reasons. You're the first who talk about references. I've took this numbers from singles' articles so I can simply find sources.--demis^talk 12:58, 16 May 2011 (UTC)

Britney Spears discography

britney HAS sold 530,000 in the US for her latest album. Those sales numbers are correct. I removed the BreatheHeavy cite and total because that was wrong and replaced it with the correct total. I don't see a problem.ColdAsFire Baby (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 20:35, 2 June 2011 (UTC).

Time for a block?

Hi there. So Vinokurov was warned less than 3 weeks ago by you that if he continued to vandalize Britney's discography that he would be blocked. Well, he just removed a large amount of sourced material, truly damaging the article. What do you think? I don't think he is going to get the message any other way.--CallMeNathan • Talk2Me 00:33, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

ARGH, don't you see that "Other charted songs" is repeated twice? --demis^talk 11:09, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Vandalism in Britney Spears singles template

Hi! Look Template:Britney Spears singles - history and Special:Contributions/77.249.94.53. User '77.249.94.53' is always makes changes in the template, even when Xwomanizerx, Materialscientist, PlatinumFire and others undid his edits. I think it's time to block the user or to block the template to prevent any anonymous edits. --demis^talk 19:10, 20 July 2011 (UTC)

Put Your Hands Up (If You Feel Love)

Could you obtain the Hot Dance/Club Play positions of the above single and not only produce a citation, but archive it? If you could go above and beyond and go ahead and do the citations in the "Chart performance" section, I would be grateful. Let me know... I Help, When I Can. ^[12] 20:56, 24 July 2011 (UTC)

Hmmmm, obviously the current chart shows its peak (http://www.billboard.com/#/charts/dance-club-play-songs), but it looks as if Billboard has not yet added this song to Kylie's "chart history" section (http://www.billboard.com/#/artist/kylie-minogue/chart-history/5213?f=359&g=Singles). They lag on this sometimes.... I think the source that is there now is ok, at least as long as the song is on the chart. Once it has peaked and dropped off, Billboard should have it properly archived. I hope. - eo (talk) 13:45, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

Added an Erasure article I'd like reviewing

Hi. Hope you don't mind me grabbing your attention - I've recently started to make contributions about the band Erasure, and noticed your name pop up often in the history of pages. I'm fairly new to Wikipedia as a contributor and have recently just added my first article User:Opwerty/Live At The Seaside. It's currently set up as a user work in progress page and I've submitted it for feedback (no response so far), but wondered if you wouldn't mind having a look at it for me? Talk page here User talk:Opwerty/Live At The Seaside. Cheers. Opwerty (talk) 19:13, 2 August 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for checking it out. Kept planning to respond back to your comments, but kept putting it off until I had more time to say/ask what I wanted. That time never arrived. Sorry! I've made the WP:CAPS as suggested, but you hinted there may be other things? If there's more, tell me or feel free to change and maybe I can learn from your alterations. Re: citation tags - they're empty 'cos there is no documentation of 'missing' tracks to reference - only bootleg copies and Youtube uploads! I know they exist (I've watched them!), but suspect that means I might have to take the whole section out! Re: Track Listing template - One step at a time for me I think! I may do this at some point, but for now I want to focus on adding basic info and 'fixing' existing articles. Easier to keep any new ones consistent with all the others for now! Thanks again. Opwerty (talk) 00:32, 6 August 2011 (UTC)

Also meant to ask - I've included the majority of the info from the closing credits of the video. Is this overkill? I don't see it being done for other videos. Opwerty (talk) 10:42, 6 August 2011 (UTC)
