As I said there were many different drafts of the tracklist released/rumored about who was featured on what tracks. I do not even think Amazons is the same as iTunes.

A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar
Hey Koala15! I'm awarding you this Barnstar for your works in articles mostly related to animation and others. Thank you and have a nice day! :) Mediran (tc) 09:32, 15 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. I just saw this edit you made to Aston Martin Music (Wale song) calling it a hoax. Could you explain to me why you think that? Because if it is a hoax it should be deleted, not just redirected. Cheers, Jenks24 (talk) 05:55, 21 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Album artworks

I saw no point at all, of you uploading an image that was EXACTLY the same for "Freaks". Doing this creates extra work for the Admins, as that one tried to point out to you multiple times. I do not know if you wanted to seem like the one who uploaded it first or what but there is no sense in those type of uploads. There is no noticeable difference between the two images. STATic message me! 01:00, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe it seemed clearer to you or on your computer, or the "colors seem better". It is still the same exact image. I have been here for much longer then you so I know more about what is and is not new to Wikipedia. As long as it properly displays the cover and is 300x300 or less, there is no point in a new upload to create more work. We both have to work together here and, I do not mean to come off harsh but it just seemed pretty pointless to me. STATic message me! 01:13, 23 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

So it seems that the cover with just the tiger for Hotel California is the version for the deluxe and standard versions. Also i'm curious why you uploaded new versions of Wolf and Bugatti at all, let alone on separate file pages? STATic message me! 23:13, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I meant next time just upload it on the same file page as the old one. Do not just create a whole new file: page. As for Hotel California it should just be the one with the tiger. I am trying to revert it to that one on the file page but for some reason everytime I try it turns back into the previous one. You know how to revert a image back right? STATic message me! 23:41, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Alright good job I saw that. STATic message me! 23:46, 4 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

What part of uploading a new version of a album cover on the same file page do you not understand? [1] STATic message me! 17:54, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Letting you know it is more work for the admins to delete a whole file then to just eventually delete old versions of a file, it also keeps all the history and everything together. Trust me at this I am just trying to help you out. STATic message me! 20:06, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Or I understand what you mean, is the thing that happened with the Hotel California happening elsewhere? STATic message me! 20:10, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No you are wrong again. They should be 300x300 or UNDER. 200x200 is just fine considering there were no 300x300 images available online. Maybe next time just do not upload the image if you are not gonna follow the fair use guidelines, and someone else has to fix your mistake. STATic message me! 19:06, 7 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited 1999 (mixtape), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Sample (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Eve

Eve's new independent label is called "Blondie Rockwell Inc." not "From the Rib". As shown on Amazon, iTunes etc. Also "She Bad Bad" was the first release on Blondie Rockwell, followed by "Make It Out this Town". Please check your edits before changing factual information. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 22:23, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

RED Distribution run a number of subsidiaries of which 'From the Rib' is one as far as I am aware. per 7 Digital (here and Amazon, Blondie Rockwell is the name of Eve's label, distributed through (RED) From the Rib. iTunes is necessarily always correct as proven at Talk: Trouble (Leona Lewis song). — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 22:45, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Quick note on G8

When nomming G8s for CSD, it's easier for the sysop to review if you don't remove the redirect. Thanks, ~ Amory (utc) 20:47, 7 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

April 2013

Hello. Regarding the recent revert you made to Reincarnated (album): you may already know about them, but you might find Wikipedia:Template messages/User talk namespace useful. After a revert, these can be placed on the user's talk page to let them know you considered their edit inappropriate, and also direct new users towards the sandbox. They can also be used to give a stern warning to a vandal when they've been previously warned. Thank you. Gold Standard 02:51, 9 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Commercial Performance

I have noticed that you constantly update these sections with the weekly sales figures, and I thank you as I have been the one to do it in the past and it can get pretty strenuous sometimes as I used to be the one that did that in the past. However I do not know if you agree with me, but I have been noticing with just having the first weeks sales and then "Since April 9 the album has sold...." in the section it makes it look awkward and small compared to the critical response section. I think from now on we should somewhat track the sales/chart positions in the section for I would say the first five weeks after release, like I partly did at I Am Not a Human Being II and The Nacirema Dream. Then after those five weeks, then have the tally of "Since April 9 the album has sold....". Every new week the total should then be removed from the end of the previous sentence. If you understand. This should make the article and section look better, also with HipHopDX updating us every week it should not be too hard. STATic message me! 22:00, 10 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I meant it should be more like this [2]. Listing how many copies it sells each week for the first five weeks and then after that listing how many copies its sold to date. Do you understand what I mean now? STATic message me! 15:20, 17 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Random placement I know, but it has to deal with the same thing. Recently I noticed you have been updating the sales, but using the wrong date. Such as today you said "Since August 28" however that is not true as the HipHopDX article says, "The week ending August 25". You should use the date HipHopDX says the sales track week ended, rather than the date it was published, because we both know there is no way they could factor in sales from today, or the day before, so it is best to just go by what the source says. STATic message me! 16:28, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It really is not a big deal, but just better to be precise you know? And it would avoid confusion such as this. It is just a minor thing, but it just keeps it consistent with the reference. STATic message me! 18:41, 28 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:Finally Rich Deluxe.JPG)

Thanks for uploading File:Finally Rich Deluxe.JPG. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use.

You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Hi there, great work on the Bob's Burgers episode articles like "God Rest Ye Merry Gentle-Mannequins" and "The Unbearable Like-Likeness of Gene", but in the future could you please take the time to write up fully plot summaries in your own words? The summaries on websites like TV Guide are almost certainly copyrighted, and as such copying these verbatim, as you've done, is a violation of the copyright policy. Thanks and happy editing! Euchrid (talk) 05:28, 19 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Speedy deletion nomination of Rittz

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Rittz requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, you can place a request here.

Your image changes

It would help if you used edit summaries so other editors know why you made your edits. You should read WP:BRD, because you like to make BOLD changes without edit summaries, then when reverted by another editor using an edit summary, you keep reverting back, most of the time still without any edit summary or even talk page discussion. Once you have been reverted, you should start a discussion somewhere, preferably on the article or image talk page, so a consensus could be reached instead of starting an edit war.

1) Asleep in the Bread Aisle - PNG is a preferred file format over JPG and should be used. You should have tagged the original file for needing to be reduced instead of creating a new JPG file that also was too big and needed to be reduced.

2) Certified, The Hunger for Moore - You never once explained why you replaced these files that were already at the correct size to pass WP:NFCC.

3) Scooby-Doo - This image was not too small.

4) Disney images except for Peter Pan - These images were not too small. The first versions are from October 12, 2007 and listed as "fair use reduce", so they were already at an acceptable size.

5) Peter Pan image - This image is different than the above because it is from a later date, but is the exact same size as the others.

Images have to be orphaned for seven continuous days to be deleted. Once the tag has been removed, you cannot simply revert because the process would have to start over again. You are clearing trying to game the system as can been seen in your edits to File:David Banner - Certified.jpg. You re-orphaned the image on April 25 after three days of it being back in the article, so you should have tagged it for that date. You clearly tried to speed up the deletion today by changing the date to the 17, [3] then to the original 20 and then eventually to the 18, [4]. These are very disingenuous edits that are not acting in good faith.

In summary, I hope that you discuss these edits here instead of reverting back to your preferred versions. I also hope that you can take some notes from what I wrote and apply it to your future edits. Aspects (talk) 23:52, 28 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am sad, but not surprised, that you totally ignored my advice. I wanted you to take the time and address the concerns I brought up here, but instead you left one note and reverted back again. Also you did the edits without edit summaries and not restarting the orphaned image time frame, so it seems like you did not even read what I left because you ignored it all. I still would appreciate your opinions on each of the images and the issues that I brought up about them. I am going to find an admin to give a third opinion since you do not want to discuss these issues. Aspects (talk) 02:02, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
In the future, if someone starts a discussion on your talk page, you should contain all of that discussion on your talk page instead of trying to figure out the conversation by going back and forth between talk pages. Please keep all further discussion here as I have your talk page watchlisted and I can see when you add a comment. I have asked the admin User:Masem for their third opinion to help us with this discussion and I am not going to make any further edits to these articles/images until a consensus is reached. In response to your last message on my talk page, I did already ask/talk about the articles/images in each edit summary and in the start of this discussion. Aspects (talk) 02:12, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]


Aspects asked me to comment here. We have a non-free content policy that requires minimal sizes, and it does appear your uploads are violating these. If you continue to upload larger-res versions of existing non-free images that have already accceptable sizes, you will likely be reported to WP:ANI and be blocked for your actions. --MASEM (t) 02:12, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I was just uploading images that fit the infobox, i'm not trying to vandalize or nothing like that i'm just trying to help, the bot will re size the images to meet standards tonight so i hope there won't be any more problems. I will never do this again. Koala15 (talk) 02:18, 29 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Since the Disney images have been reduced, I am fine with their size. The Scooby-Doo image seems to be about the same size as the Disney images, so I am now fine with that. The Asleep in the Bread Aisle original file has been deleted, but since you provided a reason for the change, even if I could not see this border, I was fine with the original file being deleted.
Now my only concerns are with the other two images. Both the original Certified image and the original Hunger for More were already at the ideal 300 width per Template:Infobox album. I would like to know what were your specific problems with these two images. Aspects (talk) 06:38, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There not even using The Hunger for More cover i uploaded anymore, and the reason i uploaded the Certified image was because it was a version without white lines on it. Koala15 (talk) 14:12, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Koala15, you have my full appreciation and solidarity. I wish you success against this destroyer (Aspects), who hates images which do not conform to his rules, and who enjoys wasting a staggering amount of time vandalizing or otherwise pestering other editors. He enjoys damaging other editors' graphic contributions thus: he removes references in articles to their uploaded images, and then blames those same images for being "orphans", with the outcome that they get finally deleted. He freely admits his limitations, namely: "I have never uploaded an image and find that part of Wikipedia confusing, so I leave that to people who have more experience in that area.", but nevertheless has no shame meddling with images obtained and uploaded by true contributors who have devoted their time, dedication and effort. Also, he freely stuffs other editors' talk page with his sermons, his BS, and his opinions (as he has done in your case), yet has the nerve to forbid other editors from writing anything in his Talk Page (as if he owned it). What still amazes me is that they still call him "a contributor", and even grant him prizes such as "barnstars" & other stuff, despite all the damage he has done and keeps doing. --AVM (talk) 23:31, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

That is a spot on observation, i completely agree with you. Koala15 (talk) 23:39, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

In response to your message three above this message, where are the white lines you are talking about? Aspects (talk) 19:06, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

They are white lines from the original editor saving the image the wrong way, by cutting and pasting it. Koala15 (talk) 20:04, 5 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

List of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2012 TV series) episodes

Okay, I'll bite. How is adding a "TBA" episode placeholder, for a show that has a 3 season order, considered "original research"? Cyphoidbomb (talk) 16:04, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"There is no need to add an episode with "TBA" as the title, your just assuming an episode will air that day. That kind of research does not belong on Wikipedia"

If you don't mind I'd prefer to continue the discussion here for convenience. Whether TBA belongs in the episode list is a matter of personal preference. I don't have an opinion one way or the other. But reverting another editor's contribution, then citing an imaginary rule about how "episode title (needs) to be here" seems like a matter of personal preference as well. TBA is a placeholder and doesn't impart any information, any more than "--" would. So I think you're stretching the interpretation of "original reasearch". And there is neither a guideline for, nor a prohibition of TBAs at WP:MOS:TV. That said, another editor suggested that another way to go is to create empty fields and comment them out. This way the fields can be used as needed, won't appear on the page, and there are no offensive TBAs. That is what I've done on the page. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 19:17, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It is not an "imaginary rule" i've seen people use that rule on various episode list pages. Anyway your most recent edit of adding blank episode fields makes much more sense. Koala15 (talk) 19:28, 1 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Epic poster

Well, I got totally wrong about the latest poster being the final poster (sorry about that)! But I can say that it is a new poster, Moviefone says it right here. It also debuted later than the other poster and has the rating.----Plea$ant 1623 06:30, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I already said sorry for the new poster being the final poster! But even if its not the final poster, why do you keep reverting to the older poster? Neither it has the rating nor it is a final poster.----Plea$ant 1623 05:55, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I will not change it. But please do not revert to the older poster as it is a new poster.----Plea$ant 1623 14:15, 15 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Conduct in Discussions and Debates

Just a comment about this edit: sarcasm has no place in debates and can very easily lead to flame wars. If you feel you have to say something, state it in a matter-of-fact manner, such as "Please note that this person is the article creator". Certainly don't start assuming things, especially regarding their real-life identity. Please familiarise yourself with the Assume Good Faith Policy and WP:OUTING.

Note: assuming bad faith and outing of people can result in blocks. Please practice more careful editing in future. Stephen! Coming... 11:33, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The Cleveland Show [moved]

How did it air, did you actaully watch it? Koala15 (talk) 19:03, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yes I saw the episode on television. It was pre-empted in certain American markets due to the NASCAR race. - Fantr (talk) 19:06, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Oh they did not play it all in the USA, i thought it didn't air anywhere since fox is labeling it as a new episode this week. Koala15 (talk) 19:16, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ah, now I see the problem. Those who get the Canadian superstation Global via satellite saw the program. Therefore it aired in Canada and apparently Ireland. I'm trying to find a RS to satisfy you. - Fantr (talk) 19:20, 7 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Hope you don't mind my moving the discussion here. You have far more experience editing the show's page. Here's what I've found.

  • A fan review with spoilers posted online on 7 May 2013. I can verify that the spoilers are correct.
  • The Global superstation had the video up after airing the episode. They soon pulled the video.
  • On twitter, a non-reliable source, people shared links where the episode could be downloaded; several report watching the episode that way. Therefore the show had to air somewhere.
  • tvrage.com, which is on Wikipedia's blacklist and therefore is probably non-reliable, correctly states the Canadian air date. The url is tvrage.com/The_Cleveland_Show/episodes/1065265641.
  • IMDB, which is a non-reliable source, states that the show aired in Canada on 5 May 2013: link. IMDB message board discussions, which are even more non-reliable, also note that the show aired in Canada here and here.

Let me know if these suffice. - Fantr (talk) 20:32, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah i believe that the show aired in Canada, i'm just still not sure which air date we should use. I feel like this happened before and we used the USA air date but i'm not sure. I think we might need a second opinion. Koala15 (talk) 23:22, 11 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Per the conversation at Template talk:Infobox single, the use of {{flat list}} is an universal readability change, as part of the accessibility movement which makes pages more accessible and readable for those hard of sight. What you deem unnecessary actually makes a huge difference to those who use screen reader technology hence users are now being encouraged to adopt the new mark-up wherever possible. See Glassheart and #willpower as an example of how it should be used in an article. I'm afraid reasons like "I don't like mid-dots won't wash because frankly using dots or commas is purely a cosmetic change for able-sighted individuals but for those who are hard of sight if impacts on the way that screen reader technology reads a page. Additionally it has benefits for viewing on smaller screens etc. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 15:00, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

They are indeed. Its quite a recent change (as of a week or so ago) but the easiest way to get it out there is to encourage its uptake and put it in a few high profile articles. :) The album sounds really good. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 15:04, 12 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

GA Nomination

I noticed you nominated Good Kid, M.A.A.D City for GA review. For future reference you should NOT nominate an article for GA unless you are either the top or second most contributor on the article. Which you are far from. Its wrong of you to jump into the article and take credit for all the work other editors have done. I am within major contributors to this article (along with SrGangsta and Dan56 thus per WP:GA one of us should be informed if another user wishes to nominate an article when us three have done virtually all of the work for. The fact that you didn't even have the courtesy to ask is kindof rude. You are basically taking credit for the various editors hard work building the article when you have less edits then ClueBOT on the article. I would suggest you withdrawing the nomination, and check these things in the future. It would fail due to WP:RECENTISM anyways. STATic message me! 02:32, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

No reason to take any offense, and I pointed out myself it was not my "credit" I was after, more taking notice of this before the top two contributors noticed. Trust me I will be glad to link to you the exact place where it says you must be one of the top contributors to nominate an article for GA. Even if you made the adjustments necessary, I doubt you would still be high enough to nominate it. When you only have 30ish compared to the 100s by others it is taking credit for someone elses work. STATic message me! 04:27, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Per Wikipedia:Good article nominations/Instructions it is highly preferable that the nominator has significantly contributed to the article. When you have less edits then ClueBOT or an IP, then you should not really even consider nominating. It is a pretty good article, give it a couple months it should be a GA in no time. STATic message me! 04:42, 18 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

SNL Cast

"It seems to be confirmed" means It has not actually been confirmed, but I think it will be. That's not good enough under WP:BLP. The source you cite doesn't confirm the departure, but cites an anonymous source for the New York Post. That would be the same newspaper that last month identified the wrong individual as a Boston Marathon bomber and spewed misinformation from similarly anonymous sources about that event for days. (Its sources also "confirmed" that Richard Gephardt was the Democratic vice presidential nominee in 2004; that was not an isolated incident. Every year, various departures from the cast are "confirmed" yet don't happen, cast members are "confirmed" to be staying on, but don't, and new cast members are reported to be hired, but aren't. Wait until it is confirmed, on the record, by a legitimate source. And there was way too much snark in your edit summary. Hullaballoo Wolfowitz (talk) 22:17, 19 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

AfDs

I've just looked at a lot of those AfDs you've started today, and it looks like you've made a right hash of them. You're clearly not following WP:BEFORE, in fact, you've made nominations that barely apply to the articles at all, at times (naming individual musicians as groups). You've also not bothered to add the AfDs into today's AfD log, and you've nominated far too many, far too quickly. Please stop, read the guidelines, and make sure you're doing the job properly - else please, don't do it at all. Lukeno94 (tell Luke off here) 07:18, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I saw your comments on Lukeno94, and he's actually right here. You're just declaring on these AfDs that these people aren't notable...but you're not actually providing evidence of that, especially on some that are obviously notable, like Kalyn Heffernan. If you didn't have so many edits, I'd think you just didn't understand what notabilty means, but your long tenure here makes me wonder about your motivation. By our very definition of notability, someone who has been discussed in detail in multiple, independent, reliable sources is notable. That's what notable means. We don't get to just decide "Oh, this person isn't important". There are sometimes additional notability criteria that can be used, but you haven't even raised those. On one AfD you state, "Regardless of the sources, he still does not meet notability guidelines." That simply doesn't make any sense. You may want to consider reviewing WP:GNG and WP:BAND, and possibly even withdrawing some of those AfDs. Qwyrxian (talk) 14:21, 24 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Koala15, you asked on my talk page which one is clearly notable. It's hard to AGF here, because I explicitly said, just above, that Kalyn Heffernan is clearly notable, as she has received multiple instances of non-trivial coverage in reliable sources. Heck, those articles actually featured her. Thus, she meets WP:GNG. Thus, she is notable. Please explain, so that we can help you: what specifically are you not understanding here? In what way does she not meet WP:GNG? Qwyrxian (talk) 00:08, 25 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Twinkle?

Hey Koala, I saw you nominated a batch of articles for deletion and I thought I'd post you a note. Each of your nominations seems not to have been transcluded properly and bots have added each one to today's log.

AT TItle/Logo Debacle

Hey there, just thought I'd drop a line. MoS for series pages states that "The image presented in the infobox of the main article should ideally be an intertitle shot of the show (i.e., a screenshot capture of the show's title) or a promotional poster used to represent the show itself."

Usually, album covers should not be much larger than c. 300 x 300 pixels or 100,000 square pixels (see Wikipedia:Non-free content). This is to avoid commercial exploitation of those images while they're hosted here at Wikipedia.

Hello Koala15, and welcome to Wikipedia. Your addition to Age Against the Machine has had to be removed, as it appears to have added copyrighted material without permission from the copyright holder. While we appreciate your contributing to Wikipedia, there are certain things you must keep in mind about using information from your sources to avoid copyright or plagiarism issues here.

  • You can only copy/translate a small amount of a source, and you must mark what you take as a direct quotation with double quotation marks (") and a cited source. You can read about this at Wikipedia:Non-free content in the sections on "text". See also Wikipedia:Referencing for beginners, for how to cite sources here.
  • Aside from limited quotation, you must put all information in your own words and structure, in proper paraphrase. Following the source's words too closely can create copyright problems, so it is not permitted here; see Wikipedia:Close paraphrasing. (There is a college-level introduction to paraphrase, with examples, hosted by the Online Writing Lab of Purdue.) Even when using your own words, you are still, however, asked to cite your sources to verify information and to demonstrate that the content is not original research.
  • Our primary policy on using copyrighted content is Wikipedia:Copyrights. You may also want to review Wikipedia:Copy-paste.
  • In very rare cases (that is, for sources that are public domain or compatibly licensed), it may be possible to include greater portions of a source text. However, please seek help at the help desk before adding such content to the article. 99.9% of sources may not be added in this way, so it is necessary to seek confirmation first. If you do confirm that a source is public domain or compatibly licensed, you will still need to provide full attribution; see Wikipedia:Plagiarism for the steps you need to follow.
  • Also note that Wikipedia articles may not be copied without attribution. If you want to copy from another Wikipedia project or article, you can, but please follow the steps in Wikipedia:Copying within Wikipedia.

It's very important that contributors understand and follow these practices, as policy requires that people who persistently do not must be blocked from editing. If you have any questions about this, you are welcome to leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Note that the text you reinserted is almost word-for-word from the source. That's not allowed.  — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:59, 23 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

AGF

I know we have a lot of IP vandalism as it relates to producers and such but "Critacal" is a somewhat known producer that collaborates a lot with Cardiak. I think when the album leaked some torrent/unreliable sites said he co-produced it, which we now know as wrong. Try to assume good faith more, and not make accusations that the IP/user is the producer trying to add their name in, because that is not always the case. No big issue though just something you shouldn't be doing, a edit summary of "Reverting unsourced content" or something looks and sounds much better. Even Cardiak's website says that him and CritaCal both produced it. I am not sure about the album booklet, because I don't have the album. STATic message me! 00:43, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah that is pretty odd, and I would have probably thought the same thing. However, do you think we should add it due to confirmation by the songs main producer? Unless you have seen the linear notes and he is not there. On the No Love Lost issue I just searched it, and see Cardiak's official site again crediting Critacal as producing the song along with Cardiak. STATic message me! 00:54, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah that is true, I wish more reliable sources would take pictures of the liner notes like Hothewhiphop does sometimes to make this much easier, since I haven't bought an album since Goblin I think. And unless he's under his real name, he is not in the AllMusic entry for the album so I guess it is just best to keep him off. STATic message me! 01:42, 24 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Many mixtapes are released to digital retail outlets like iTunes, and still available on DatPiff. We call these "retail mixtapes", examples would be that Black Friday and Overly Dedicated.

Amazon.com

There is a new guideline for sources as it relates to albums at, Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources. Maybe if you are going to edit album articles you should check it out. It clearly says Amazon is not a reliable source for albums, so no more using it. Instead of just reverting you should have added one of the reliable sources that you left on my talk page, don't you think? I just did not want another not correct tracklist like with Wolf and Yeezus, which were taken from other countries Amazon website. STATic message me! 17:15, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

They get release dates wrong all the time, and you do not remember the report Dave Matthews was going to be on Wolf. That started on Amazon, was added to Wikipedia and then reliable sources reported it, because it was on Wikipedia, then it all turned out to be wrong, among other credits and names of tracks on that album. But that is just one of many examples. STATic message me! 17:23, 5 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Interstellar

I disagree with your logic at Interstellar (film). In the infobox, we have the "Starring" field which will not list all the cast members, but in the "Cast" section, we list more. Likewise, the infobox has crew-related fields that are not comprehensive. It makes sense that we can identify the rest of the names in the article body. We should be able to encourage cross-navigation of Wikipedia articles. Panic Room#Production is another example of this. I ask you to reconsider. Erik (talk | contribs) 17:00, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There is no rule that says that the infobox should be the only place for credits, especially when it cannot mention people like the production designer, the costume designer, and the visual effects supervisor, which are positions for which awards can be won. Like I said, the "Cast" section shows more cast members than the infobox shows, and the "Production" section can show more crew members than the infobox shows. Why would this be detrimental? What about including the crew members in a collapsible format in the "Production" section? Erik (talk | contribs) 17:05, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
As you have probably seen, I commented on the talk page. The guidelines not mentioning crew lists does not mean they should not be included. I think that it is possible that this is something that we never really considered because we assume that the infobox is the only place to name names. We can try to be creative with how we approach film articles. On the surface of it, do you not think that listing crew members is helpful? The production designer and the costume designer have roles that are more contributing than the actors we see at the end of a "Cast" section. We should be able to link to them when possible, to give them access on Wikipedia to their biography and the articles of the other films they've done. Are there other ways to present this information, such as in prose or in a collapsible table? I think what I added allows for easy lookup for their names and roles. Erik (talk | contribs) 17:43, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I think that we have a variety of readers looking for different kinds of detail. We often get detailed about film production or box office performance, but it's possible that some readers skip over one or the other entirely. While we don't want to bloat the article with indiscriminate detail, I think we can follow rules of thumbs about what to include. The fact that film reviews do mention crew credits at the end, as well as highlighting some key contributions, is one. Another is the award recognition for some of the work. I'm not necessarily looking for crew lists all over the place, but I think in the case of Interstellar, most crew members have won awards or worked on mainstream films. As for your "Personnel" suggestion, do you mean something like 47 Ronin (2013 film)#Crew? (Yeah, I put that there... haha. I want to encourage new thinking!) I'll wait to see if others can comment at Interstellar about the crew list. Thanks, Erik (talk | contribs) 18:35, 13 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Album notability

M.O. is not notable for the following conditions at WP:NALBUMS:

  1. it does not have a confirmed track listing.
  2. whilst 2 notable singles have been released, albums albums do not inherit notability from singles or their artist
  3. coverage must be independent of the subject i.e. of the artist/record label.
  4. Per the guideline, Separate articles should not be created until there is sufficient reliably sourced information about a future release
  5. Per wikipedia is not a crystal ball, a handful of information (poorly sourced) about release dates, collaborations and possible songs constitutes a breach of wikipedia rules regarding future album releases.

It is for those reasons that M.O. is not notable. If you disagree you would need to answer each of the above violations of wikipedia policy. → Lil-℧niquԐ 1 - { Talk } - 23:28, 24 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

They're not random policies. Its called WP:NALBUMS as in when albums are notable. If you have never seen policies before or you don't know of their existence then that's not my fault... that's down to you to do the research (you'll see there's also WP:NSONGS and WP:NMUSIC). And actually no... a cover alone and/or tracklisting by itself will not help notability. It still needs coverage from external third party sources. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, it's not here to serve as promotion for an album and as for it being "a shame" that's opinion ... wikipedia is supposed to be factual. Pages are only created when (and in some cases IF) they have enough information to warrant one. → Lil-℧niquԐ 1 - { Talk } - 00:00, 25 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

As the concept of a Pixar Universe preceded the Negroni thesis by a decade, I seek your opinion about THIS. Thanks, Schmidt, Michael Q. 20:52, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Perhaps I can fold my little sourced article into the main topic Pixar and we'd have a suitable redirect target for The Pixar Theory? Schmidt, Michael Q. 22:11, 7 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Bout That Life

As I said there were many different drafts of the tracklist released/rumored about who was featured on what tracks. I do not even think Amazons is the same as iTunes. If you see [5] [6] [7] [8] and [9] all call it a song from Self Made 3 and never once is the word "remix" said or anything. If you think about it, this lineup makes much more sense than a bunch of unknowns on a song about stuntin, especially when it comes to Diddy. Also reverting an edit in whole when I fixed other mistakes (I remember you being the one that expanded that part of the lead leaving French out of the MMG members), is kind of disruptive, if you do not agree with one part of an edit, fix that one part.STATic message me! 02:11, 11 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
