Footnotes 2 and 3 have been hacked and are now links to buy.com — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.114.23.176 (talk) 22:59, 7 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

It looks to me that the editor who created the article may have hid his own affiliate-seller urls within Village Voice etc links. (http://en.wiki.x.io/w/index.php?title=Queen_of_Soul:_The_Atlantic_Recordings&diff=135037988&oldid=135033171). - leading to buy.com directly. Otherwise why do it? To link to cited reviews? It's not impossible I suppose. It was probably an expensive thing to buy, but I don't think the box set is in print any more. I've had a quick look through his contributions and I can't see evidence of it happening again, and he's not editing now it appears.

I do wonder sometimes exactly how much money people make from this place either linking directly to their own businesses, via clever citing, or through affiliate selling. You used to see it a lot if you knew where/how to look - ie in the 99% of Wikipedia that exists outside of its core articles. I think even 'Veteran' editors constantly move these kind of links around the articles without ever checking them - even when they can actually see the url they've moved, like here. That's what gets me - the lack of importance held in checking (or even validating) links after they've initially been created. Matt Lewis (talk) 03:47, 20 February 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Rhino Records release is not a reissue of the original release by Atlantic Records

I made some basic changes that eliminate the statements that the Rhino release is a reissue of the Atlantic release. I also corrected the track listing of the Rhino release (by inserting "Don't Let Me Lose This Dream" as track 6 of disc 1).

What really needs to happen, however, is to create a completely new Wikipedia page for the Rhino Records release, and to move its cover art and track listing to the new page.

I have begun work on a new article for the Rhino release. At present, the draft is in my sandbox: User:SlotAndSplit/sandbox SlotAndSplit (talk) 02:56, 1 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

The new article has been posted as a draft.

Draft:The Queen of Soul (2014 Aretha Franklin album)

If and when it passes review, and has been officially published, I will strip out its artwork and track listing from this article.
