Hello...I seen an article u recently updated about the song lady love by lou rawls....it says the writers of that song are Von Gray and Marshall Sherman. If I told you that initially there is and will ever be one sole writer of the original lyrics, would you believe me? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Topprospekt (talk • contribs) 15:46, 13 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly, I don't know what to say about Lady Love by Lou Rawls. I never really got fully familiar with that song recording. I've no definite idea as to who really wrote any specific part of that song. All I could do by the moment I edited the article was to insert it into the list of LR songs.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that you've added some links pointing to disambiguation pages. 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.

September 2012

Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not replace pages with blank content, as you did with this edit to Category:Dunhill Records artists, as this is confusing to readers. The page's content has been restored for now. If there is a problem with the page, it should be edited or reverted to a previous version if possible; if you think the page should be removed entirely, see further information. Thank you. — Jeff G. ツ (talk) 17:54, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I'm barely familiar with Wikipedia's editing process and it's the first time I'm trying my hand at creating a category page. In the beginning, I was lost and I just wasn't sure what to do. I didn't mean to get readers confused and I'm sorry for the mistakes. Also, do you or does anyone else have any idea of how I should proceed on subcategorizing a category page? I just would like to insert my category page into the category of artists by record label, that's all. Thank you, David Regimbal, 4:06 p.m. (hour of Montreal)

Hi David Regimbal, I see you have placed some categories in some musicians' articles to categorize per record company. I will take a look at how this should happen properly and get back to you. Meanwhile I tried to delay the deletion of the category you started, because I think there was a small misunderstanding. Hoverfish Talk 20:23, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I see the problem now. When you create an (otherwise acceptable) category, you have to place in it the category to which it belongs. In this case, it belongs to Category:Artists by record label. What you did was place in it the category you created itself and then deleted it. Now, your deleting it and leaving it uncategorized was taken to mean that you want this category removed, but I saw that you had already "populated" this category (i.e. placed it in several mucisicians' articles, which is why I tried to stop the deletion. Ask me in my talk page if you have any further questions. Hoverfish Talk 20:38, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

BTW, what you asked to know about is here: WP:SUBCAT. Hoverfish Talk 01:06, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, thanks for the suggestion. I'll take a look at it and try to figure out ways of creating a category page and if I'm not sure of anything about it I'll let you know. And as for my first category page, I was just a bit mixed up so I made a mistake that made you suppose that I was attempting to delete it and I'm terribly sorry. By now, I've enhanced the category as much as I could, bit by bit. My reason for coming up with the category of Dunhill Records artists is that I would like anyone consulting Wikipedia to have the opportunity to see a list of the people who recorded material released on that label once they consult an article about such an artist (i.e. The Mamas & the Papas, Steppenwolf, Barry McGuire, etc.), that's all. David Regimbal (talk) 03:45, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Actually it was Jeff G. who thought you meant to delete it. Don't feel sorry for little mistakes, there is plenty to learn while editing Wikipedia, depending on how much you intend to contribute, so normally the community has plenty of understanding for beginners' mistakes and tries to help. It's a very acceptable category you created. The article Dunhill Records exists, and so it is clear that it is a notable company. And by the way, this article includes a list of artists you might wish to update. Cheers, and feel free to peek in "my tools" page for helpful topics.

Del Shannon

I noticed your recent additions. The article drops the ball on his suicide and the involvement of prescription drugs as a cause. There are lots of good on line sources concerning all that, including the lawsuit that was filed by his family. The following source has not really been mined in this article, and this is really quite nicely done. Bak, Richard (July, 2011). "Del Shannon's Runaway Success Led to his Downfall". Hour Detroit. Retrieved August 17, 2011. {{cite journal}}: Check date values in: |date= (help); Cite journal requires |journal= (help) Anyway, if you are looking for something worthwhile to do, this might be a beginning. It is definitely not an "assignment", and I am definitely not your foreman. but it is something that needs to be done, and might be of interest to you. Hope all goes well for you. Happy editing. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 01:10, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the suggestion and for your encouragement. Honestly, I don't really know what else to say about Shannon. For the moment I just keep slightly editing some articles and enhancing some category pages. David Regimbal (talk) 04:01, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I understand. Shannon is not a bad place to start because it is a stable article, and it is off the beaten path. And he is a worthwhile subject. Take a look at the Bak article in Hour Detroit, and it might give you some ideas. It is on my list of "things to do" and I just keep putting it off. Like now, because real life calls. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 11:30, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
