==Music label==
{{bots|deny=DPL bot}}
Hello, I'd lean towards that it doesn't deserve it's own article as I'd imagine it's just them releasing their own material. I haven't checked, but if there is information out there about the label, it could probably be fit into the Garbage article itself. Namely because it doesn't sound like the label would be outside the interest of anyone interested in the band, y'know? :)] (]) 11:41, 28 October 2014 (UTC)

== Amy Lee article ==
I know I didn't contribute much to the genre discussion (think arguments that big intimidate me, specially when I don't know what can I say!), but I see you've edited some articles by the band, including the albums that I've been regularly postponing to work before the GA process. Thus I wonder if you could take a look at ], see what needs a prose cleanup before I try featuring it on the main page (it was released 15 years ago, the star is on the article since 2007, it could have a chance!). ] ] 18:27, 4 November 2014 (UTC)
:{{u|Igordebraga}}, Hi, no worries. One just takes it one argument at a time I guess haha. I've copy edited and stopped at the Music Video section. Checked the sources, changed some of the syntax of the prose, and added some relevant inline tags with a reason for most of them. There are a few links that need to be updated, a few statements that need better sources, and a bit of a rewrite I believe is needed around a couple of tagged statements that are not strictly supported by its source. Get back to me after you review the edits I made. Great cleanup you did beforehand btw. --] (]) 09:57, 5 November 2014 (UTC)

Re: your last edit on Amy Lee's article, you said that she's an only child and cited the first Metal Hammer reference. In the Metal Hammer interview, she says that it was just her and her parents again after her sister died. She doesn't say she was an only child. She still had living siblings, they just didn't live with her and her parents. An only child is someone without any siblings, not one with siblings living away from home. I did a cursory Google search but didn't find anything where Lee identifies as an only child (except a memorabilia website that clearly copy and pastes artist info from Misplaced Pages).

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention.

I want to apologise unreservedly for the unseemly tit-for-tat squabble we fell into on the ] page. Intelligence is such a rare commodity that those who have it should not waste it attacking each other - we both seek the same goal, after all: the improvement and refinement of this body of knowledge. I withdraw any accusations against you, whether deliberate or not, and I entirely recognise your right to disagree with my point of view and to express your opinion in any way you see fit. For my part, I take no personal offence at any comments you made about me and I hope we can continue to work together on this great project without ill feeling. ] (]) 12:08, 11 November 2014 (UTC)
:Hey, no worries. Things can get heated when people are strongly coming from different viewpoints, showing restraint can be difficult at times for all sides. I appreciate the apology, and I'd like to extend mine as well. :) Yes, and It's good we at least both agree the article needs improvement. I know my points are rather general not entirely helpful, but like I'd said before, I'm really not able to focus on it right now; I'll be revisiting the article/the issue at a later time, so I actually might be helpful then haha. Good luck in the meantime. Cheers. ] (]) 01:25, 12 November 2014 (UTC)

== Why is Taylor Swift not considered a singer-songwriter to you? ==


Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.
You recently made various changes to Taylor Swift's page claiming she is not a singer-songwriter, why is that? I am interested in your opinion as she does write, compose, and perform many of her songs. She is not just a pop singer. ] (]) 01:04, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
:{{ping|Qwertyasdwek}} Hi, my edit summary stated per article ] and the fact that there is no reliable ''music site'' (or music writer) source referring to/discussing her in the context of a singer-songwriter (as opposed to a singer and songwriter). The issue is with the usage of the particular term singer-songwriter, which does not traditionally refer to a pop singer that writes/co-writes their songs. There's a discussion on this on ]; my views are stated there If you want to refer to that. There is also an ] on the talk page.] (]) 01:11, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
::{{ping|Lapadite77}} Taylor Swift does in fact play both acoustic guitar and piano. Many, if not most, of her songs do focus on personal messages, in her case, past relationships and loves, which she is the sole writer of. I see where you are coming from though as the term singer-songwriter used to refer to American folk music, but I believe it is time for the term to change, or it will go extinct. ] (]) 01:53, 3 December 2014 (UTC)
:::{{ping|Qwertyasdwek}} It's not simply whether the singer plays an instrument or contributes to their songs, otherwise any recording artist that gets a writing credit would qualify, please read the article. It is a very particular term/category, akin to a genre, wherein artists are the singlehanded songwriters (compose and arrange the music, and lyrics) and instrumentally perform their music. It's not up to us to interpret or reinterpret the term as we wish, presuming the meaning of the term has evolved or should evolve - that is ]; it's up to the music writers, the sources used to back up encyclopedic content. It is not reliably sourced in her article that she belongs to the category of ]; there is no music writer that appears to discuss her/her music in the context of a singer-songwriter; she is referred to as singer and songwriter or singer/songwriter, i.e. a singer who writes/co-writes (typically lyrics and perhaps some melody contribution) some of their songs.] (]) 03:32, 4 December 2014 (UTC)
::::{{ping|Lapadite77}} So I'm curious, would you have considered her a singer-songwriter earlier in her career, before she was so famous when she wrote, composed, and performed her own songs about love? ] (]) 02:03, 5 December 2014 (UTC)
:::::{{u|Qwertyasdwek}} Fame has nothing to do with it, and I'm not very familiar with her career. Looking through track listings for her earlier work there are other writers credited (which is not the only criteria if you will). Nevertheless, It comes down to whether a reliable source (a music site/writer) categorizes her as a singer-songwriter. Like I said before, our personal opinions or own interpretations (.e.g, ], ], ]) should not factor in encyclopedic content. If a RS denotes her or discusses her as a singer-songwriter then she can be cited as such in her article, otherwise it's unsourced, original research, and technically misleading. ] (]) 21:04, 5 December 2014 (UTC)

:{{ping|Joseph Prasad}} Sure, you can put it under a Tour heading, between Release and Critical reception sections. The dates he's playing or has played would be good to cite. ] (]) 03:34, 7 December 2014 (UTC)
Another question. Source #2 talks about how many albums were sold in the first week, 2000 copies. How do I use a ref name, due to it already being used in the body of the article?
:{{ping|Joseph Prasad}} ] is helpful for that.
:On the opening/first < ref > of the original citation, use < ref name=a short name for source > (without spaces), and then wherever else you want to use that source just use that ref name but with a forward slash before the last >
:so, you would use < ref name=short name for source/ > for all other citations from that source. I'll make the edit, and you can see the ref change I made.] (])

If you are concerned that your nomination will not receive the necessary reviews, and you hope to get it promoted before the end of the round, please list it on ]. However, please remember to continue to offer reviews at GAN, FAC and all the other pages that require them to prevent any backlogs which could otherwise be caused by the Cup.

Amy Lee article

Hi Lapadite!

Re: your last edit on Amy Lee's article, you said that she's an only child and cited the first Metal Hammer reference. In the Metal Hammer interview, she says that it was just her and her parents again after her sister died. She doesn't say she was an only child. She still had living siblings, they just didn't live with her and her parents. An only child is someone without any siblings, not one with siblings living away from home. I did a cursory Google search but didn't find anything where Lee identifies as an only child (except a memorabilia website that clearly copy and pastes artist info from Misplaced Pages).

Let me know if you have another source please! Thanks. MSTwitch666 (talk) 23:15, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team

DYK for Manifesto (2015 film)

On 3 November 2024, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Manifesto (2015 film), which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Cate Blanchett played 13 different characters in the multi-screen film installation Manifesto? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Manifesto (2015 film). You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Manifesto (2015 film)), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

"List of best-selling female rappers WIKI"

Hello, i compiled a sheet of all of Doja Cat's certified sales from 18 countries which was the number i used in the initial edit I made. Am i able to email you the sheet as proof of her claimed sales? (@jayslipa) Jayslipa (talk) 19:16, 10 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi. That's not necessary. Misplaced Pages articles are based on the information directly provided by secondary reliable sources. So, if you find a reliable source that states her total record sales, it can be cited in the article. Lapadite (talk) 16:06, 13 November 2024 (UTC)

Hi Lapadite,

It looks like when they were revertin ThisIs00k's edits, they removed yours on Nicki Minaj (including her genres) are you able to reinstate it please? 94.54.0.176 (talk) 07:34, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

Thanks, I reinstated the genre. Lapadite (talk) 07:54, 14 November 2024 (UTC)
It also looks like their previous socks had removed hip hop and reggae from Rihanna's page too, and changed on her A Girl Like Me album genre from pop, dancehall and R&B to pop and reggae, despite reggae only being stated as reggae-lite, are you able to re add them back? 88.227.75.203 (talk) 08:13, 14 November 2024 (UTC)

ThisIs00k is back

Closed discussion due Turkish-located IP has been suspended as a MariaJaydHicky sock
The following discussion has been closed. Please do not modify it.

Looks like they're back editing under as Blueberry72, removing sourced content and reverting edits made by users on Tulisa related articles can you please revert? Many thanks 212.154.1.248 (talk) 11:02, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

In the recent history, I only see a revert of a block evasion. I am not familiar with that article to know if their edit included removal of content that shouldn't be removed. You can make the corrections in the article, or leave a message on the editor's talk page or the article talk page. If you suspect sock puppetry, open a case at WP:SPI.
