Keri Hilson - In a Perfect World
[edit]According to WP:record charts when different versions of an album or song chart the best way to show it is by including a note directly beneath the chart like in my edits and not by using asterisks like you did. Also the Italian chart you added was not sourced. Remember all info on wiki needs to be WP:verifiable Lil-unique1 (talk) 20:55, 7 February 2010 (UTC)
Signature link
[edit]Hi, your signature link is the Italian Utente:Merynancy, perhaps your meant to use the English User:Merynancy. Regards, SunCreator (talk) 23:27, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
Gypsy
[edit]It was explained to you before with In a Perfect World... that when different versions of a song or album appear on a chart you should use a note directly below the chart. You've changed the notes from Gypsy to a format that's incorrect. WP:record charts does clearly outline how charts are supposed to appear. In the interests of consistancy use the correct format in the future. :) Lil-unique1 (talk) 16:39, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
- I disagree. Putting * next to the numbers or [a], [b] etc. is more messy. This way is uniform and consistant. Still if you think otherwise bring it up on the talk page for record charts.Lil-unique1 (talk) 16:59, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

Diana Vickers
[edit]I saw that you warned 90.220... If you could, please WP:AGF. The reverts are happening because people aren't leaving civil comments explaining what they're doing, and not discussing. 90's style seems to be not to discuss very much, though he did respond to me fairly quickly when I asked a direct, polite question about his chart citations. That link you put back, with the Failed verification tag - I checked, and sure enough, it fails verification, and will always fail, as its "statistics" reports seem to come from users - correct me if I'm wrong. IMHO this justifies the removal which 90 did, but didn't document. So I do not think what 90 did can be correctly labeled vandalism. --Lexein (talk) 02:13, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for replying. I saw the deletion of the entire citation along with the failed verification tag - that deletion does seem legitimate to me. It's rude when IP users don't leave edit comments, but the deletion itself, on its own, was valid, without regard to history. It's a citation with zero value for chart statistics. Please respond here - I prefer linear discussions. --Lexein (talk) 08:24, 11 August 2010 (UTC)
Removing sourced material
[edit]Hi, I noticed you recently removed some sourced material from California Gurls, and I reverted your edit. If you remove sourced material because it is inaccurate, please discuss the change on the talk page first and provide evidence that this is the case. If the source does not actually support the statement to which it is attributed, you could use Template:not in source, or say so in your edit summary to avoid confusion. Thanks.

No Slovak chart archive?
[edit]Hi, I hope you can explain further your summary for this edit, where you said "slovak charts site has no archive". They go back to 2006 (which certainly covers the time period for Impossible (Shontelle song)). How is that not an archive? The singlechart template wouldn't produce a ref that didn't look like it'd endure. — JohnFromPinckney (talk) 21:28, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
- There is no link to archives, the link is the same for the week 20 of 2007, for the week 39 of 2008 and for all the other weeks. And the link I put is better: it has also the chart cronology of the song. ׺°”˜`”°º×ηυηzια׺°”˜`”°º× 21:33, 18 August 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for your reply, which I've copied above. There's a note in the generated ref about which chart to select; it's a simple instruction for a simple page, so it's hardly difficult for most users to verify the peak. Also, {{singlechart}} formats the reference in a standardized way with a full citation; you have provided a single long (ugly) bare URL which, even if you added the rest of a citation, and did it so that it matched the other refs, you'd have to do it that same way each time you added a Slovakian ref. And if you're going to do Slovakia that way, you'd probably better start doing Czech Republic, too.
- Let's go back to the template version. — JohnFromPinckney (talk) 21:52, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Rejection of Nomination of Austin Mahone for deletion
[edit]The discussion you began regarding whether the article Austin Mahone is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted has been rejected by Milowent. While you are free to make your nomination, you might consider withdrawing the nomination, which does not explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article if you wish to withdrawn the nomination, instead simply state as such in the discussion.--Milowent • hasspoken 18:54, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

- If you don't know what you did wrong, the article still used the Irish single chart template when you updated it, which links to irish-charts.com. That site has not updated. Irma.ie has, and you were clearly looking at irma.ie, so provide a link to that site in future like I just did, otherwise this is adding unsourced information. Thank you.

Okay cool, well, I mean, if you want to continue to add unsourced information, I'll be happy to continue warning you until you receive a final warning and an administrator is alerted to this. Then you will have to explain to them why you can't. Maybe you won't find it so funny then? I know I will :) Ss112 05:01, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
- It is funny because the source that was provided automatically by the template updates itself around two days after the IRMA website. There's no need to be so rude for such petty things, it's not like the information I added was fake. ×°˜`°×ηαη¢у×°˜`°× 08:54, 6 November 2018 (UTC)
- Doesn't matter, the information you added needs to be verifiable at the time you add it. That's what WP:V even says. Nobody else, if they checked, would know when that source was going to update and so therefore it's not proven by the source. Also, there's no assurance of when it will update. It doesn't "update itself"—it has to be done by people, and in the past it hasn't updated for several weeks. Ss112 12:22, 6 November 2018 (UTC)

parameter is the full date when the content pointed to by the URL was last verified to be working and supporting the text being cited in the article. This means that the parameter needs to be updated whenever the content is updated.

FDR Charts & Tophit for KAZKA band
[edit]Hello Merynancy. (Sorry for my English.) Thank you for this text. But I'd like to talk about Tophit. It's Russian chart, and not Ukrainian. You can not add it. Yes, the site show info about Ukraine and Kiev, but it's not always correct. The song 'Svyata' was very popular in Ukraine, but not in Russia. And Tophit shows that the song had only #183. For Russia -- yes, but not for Ukraine. And FDR Charts shows TOP-40 of Ukraine. This company started in 1998 (see screen 2002) and works now. I don't understand why users delete it. Even if you don't want to use FDR, use Tophit is not correct. Thank you. P.S. Ukrainian TV channel MusicBosxUa shows info about TOP-40 of FDR. Do you think that the channel shows incorrect info? -- QAtlantic.mn, 16:34, 3 February 2019 (UTC)
Kazka
[edit]Hello. Thank you for your leaving me a message on my talk page. I read carefully now on WP:Charts and found out that there isn't added any official charts website about Bulgaria so I'm not gonna add again, even though Kazka was number 1 on Bulgarian radios. But, I would please you to read carefully the greek source as it seems you don't know how the greek charts work. Kazka's song "Plakala" in english, ("Cry") was released by the greek label Panik Records and since then have entered the charts. Airplay Greek charts have an official source, that is IFPI Greece. Thank you Αντρέας Δέλτα (Talk) 15:56, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
- This is not a reason to be ignored just because the official website of IFPI Greece does not provide an archive for each category every week. Since they provide an archive and the website of Airplay Charts writes their official source is IFPI then I don't see any other reason. It won't be added again by me, but this is wrong. Thanks again for this discussion. --Αντρέας Δέλτα (talk) 16:10, 26 February 2019 (UTC)
The article Anna Odobescu has been proposed for deletion because it appears to have no references. Under Wikipedia policy, this biography of a living person will be deleted after seven days unless it has at least one reference to a reliable source that directly supports material in the article.
If you created the article, please don't be offended. Instead, consider improving the article. For help on inserting references, see Referencing for beginners, or ask at the help desk. Once you have provided at least one reliable source, you may remove the {{prod blp/dated}} tag. Please do not remove the tag unless the article is sourced. If you cannot provide such a source within seven days, the article may be deleted, but you can request that it be undeleted when you are ready to add one. Wgolf (talk) 22:33, 2 March 2019 (UTC)
