RE:Question

[edit]

Thanks!! Well it's kind of confusing, but fumble around Wikipedia:User page design center and you can learn some things. Candyo32 16:56, 27 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

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 Latitude 30 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 person, organization (band, club, company, etc.) or web content, 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 see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Cind.amuse 15:58, 30 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Cut and paste moves

[edit]

Hello, cut and paste moves such as the one you performed with Jacksonville metropolitan area are not the appropriate way to relocated content. Such moves destroy the page history, which is necessary for attribution for copyright purposes. If you want to move the page, the correct way to go about it can be found at requested moves. Thanks,--Cúchullain t/c 18:41, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Well I just wanted to move it to Greater Jacksonville because that is a better name for it. --MPQzy (talk) 18:45, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Again, the way to go about suggesting a move can be found at requested moves.--Cúchullain t/c 19:10, 16 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

One Woman Army

[edit]

Hi MpQzy,

You appear to have misssed the point with One Woman Army. I've left a detailed explanation to the edits at Talk: One Woman Army. My key points to summarise:

  • Thatgrapejuice and Toyazworld and such sites are completely random and unreliable as they post opinions and speculation.
  • Neither sources are run by professionals or have any kind of professional endorsement by the music industry.
  • The information you are trying to keep in the article is unfounded and actually does harm and damage to the artist by promoting inaccuracies - it just cannot be established that what is being said is true.
  • my edits were constructive and in the spirit of wikipedia because of the information left was sourced, verified and accurate - additionally I worked very hard on Basic Instinct and Fantasy Ride as well as numerous other Ciara singles to get them to WP:Good articles and WP:Featured Articles. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 21:55, 30 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I understand, but thatgrapejuice.net is currently being used a source right now. I didn't add it. It hasn't been removed either. I am trying to make the article as good as possible. For the record, I didn't add those blog sites as sources/references, someone else did and I just left them. --MPQzy (talk) 13:58, 31 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
My edits removed the blogy sources and your reverts added them back. Just now you've gone and undone my edit for no apparent reason even though my edits: improved the language and tone as well as adding more factual information and remove large portions of text which were WP:COPYPASTED. I think you should look up ownership of articles because it sounds like you won't accept anyone else's edits to One Woman Army except your own. If you can clearly explain why my edits DON'T improve the article I will consider not trying to edit the article in that way again. However if your explanation is just that "its better the way it was before" then I think we'll have to go to dispute resolution because it is getting beyond silly. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 16:45, 1 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This is not true. I have kept the beginning part of your version because it is better. You use "blogy sources" as well (the same one, in fact). Other parts of your version are opinion and are not fact, especially the last sentence in the first paragraph. Not only that, but there are also grammar, punctuation, and spelling errors. However, if you think we should go to dispute resolution then we can. --MPQzy (talk) 16:58, 1 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I've copy edited the section, using some of the suggestions from the "Sweat" GA review. But now you need to stop removing and censoring information. Instead of removing stuff consider adding stuff which improves the article, its background etc and try and be supportive towards others. Wikipedia should be a collaborative effort. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 17:02, 1 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:CiaraLikeASurgeon.png)

[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:CiaraLikeASurgeon.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that 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).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box.

Like a Surgeon

[edit]

The link you keep posting for Like a Surgeon is a fanmade or one that was decommissioned. As the single was never sent to digital outlets for individual purchase we cannot conclusively say that the cover is official. It was never released by the label nor was it appearing in the radio coverage that billboard gave the single. Unless you can provide a WP:Reliable source that is not wikipedia itself then you cannot link in images as this is a breach of international non-free copyright laws. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 18:50, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Okay. —MPQzy (talk) 19:17, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sweat

[edit]

I ask that you please don't change the info box on sweat to single, all songs go online at some point, whether their leaked by the artist or the label. So, it had no release whatsoever, please levee it as a song. Yes, the fact that the song was talked about did promote the album, so its a promo song, but single it is not. --TheCountdown (talk) 23:50, 2 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Technically, there are no reliable sources confirming that the "Sweat" radio release was cancelled. Songs do get cancelled from iTunes without being cancelled from radio. The song was stilled played on radio as well, making it a promo single.MPQzy (talk) 16:20, 3 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sweat

[edit]

Having worked on numerous WP:Good articles, and given the distinct lack of information the way the article is currently presented is the best representation of information. I've nominated the article and as soon as its reviewed it should hopefully pass. Please refrain from making sweeping/large changes which essentially push information around the page without adding any benefit. Also some of your edits add unsourced information like "hip-hop". None of the referencing refers to the songs as a "Hip-hop" song. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 01:44, 30 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I ask you not to move the information around. Where the information is not detailed this is a good agreed format and presentation for the information. Your edits add no value to the article. It is redundent to have a section for charts which has the table with just one chart. Equally the information you're trying to split and put into a critical reception section isn't actually about the reception of the song. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 16:46, 1 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
First of all Gerrick Kennedy is a respected reviewer from the LA Times. His comment "And after a revolving door of release dates and a slew of poorly received leaked tracks" is necessary as its a qualified analysis of the failures with Basic Instinct and explains a lot of the background to the lack of support Ciara had from Jive. Also its factual... it is true. Secondly we always attribute years to the album titles in GA articles. According to MTV "I just love to make you sweat in all kinds of ways" is a lyric. You listening to the song and saying otherwise isnt a qualified opinion. Finally if your gonna make changes like this to a WP:Good article you should consult with the person or people who've been contributing most and making the article a GA as it signficantly changes the context of the article. Seriously dude, you need to start discussing things more. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 23:38, 5 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Actually, it's not factual. He's just another reviewer/critic like anyone else. That's his opinion. Years are also not needed, look at Love Sex Magic. Also, Even if MTV says that's a lyric, one just has to listen to the song to know that's not in the song. That's just common sense. You're putting false information in something that is supposed to be factual. Finally, why do I have to ask? Wikipedia tells me to be bold and that's what I'm doing. It's not like I'm adding wrong information or something. Seems to me like you're trying to own the article. —MPQzy (talk) 18:51, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It is factual ... there were lots of pushbacks and leaks, which is what the source is being used to desctibe. Well since several people have reverted your edits to Ciara pages in the past it would suggest that not everyone agrees with your edits. Its less about ownership... more about editing in a way which is all encompassing and doesn't censor information. You've said yourself your a huge ciara fan but it appears that you're not able to edit the subjects objectively. Also everytime I've edited if you've had an issue with it Ive made an attempt to explain why a its been edited in certain why. Whereas you? No attempts to ever discuss any of your edits. And you just blank information if you don't like it. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 20:02, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
FYI, i've removed the lyrics quote, but I've restored the dates and the LA Times quote because the GA review passed these elements. If you can explain a good reason why they should be removed feel free to on the talk page but since they were part of the article when it was reviewed and the reviewer said it was well written then I don't see a valid reason for removal. Also you've added "Urban" airplay which isn't sourced. Whereas Rhythmic/Crossover (which is one format) is sourced. Please do not add unsourced material to any article. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 20:06, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I've just added it on the talk page. We can continue the discussion there. —MPQzy (talk) 22:10, 6 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sophmore

[edit]

Specifically from Rap-Up.com it says "Ciara shows us what she’s working with on “Sophomore,” a new track unleashed by DJ Orator." it then goes on to say "R&B siren, who is still recording her Epic Records debut One Woman Army". But it does not say that "Sophmore" was recorded for One Woman Army. Just because the website talks about a new song and references One Woman Army doesn't mean the song is taken from One Woman Army. That is the exact definition of original research and adding 2 + 2 to get 5. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 21:48, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well if that's the case, why hasn't "Overdose" been removed from the page? There is no proof of it being from One Woman Army. If one gets removed, they should both get removed, unless a source is found for "Overdose." If not, they should both stay. —MPQzy (talk) 21:52, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
"Overdose" is confirmed here. And L.A. Reid tweeted about it leaking from the recording sessions. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 21:53, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, that needs to be put in the article. I'll remove "Sophomore" now. —MPQzy (talk) 21:58, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Its still in the recorded song's section. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 22:01, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It's been removed. —MPQzy (talk) 22:06, 9 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Creating Pages

[edit]

It is bad practise to create pages for recorded songs and then redirect them to the album. You should wait and create pages only if songs become notable. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 17:41, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Most of these songs will be on the album. Once there is enough information for each song, I will make a page for each song. Other albums on Wikipedia are like this. —MPQzy (talk) 18:54, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
That is speculating that they will be notable enough. The chances are they won't be as its only in special cases that a non-single gets an article, i.e. "Sweat," where there was a reasonable amount of independent reliable coverage. The idea is that only after that happens do you create pages for every song on an album. Chances are that as very few previously released Ciara albums have had notable songs the same thing is likely for One Woman Army. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 22:17, 16 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Okay, I will just wait. —MPQzy (talk) 19:44, 17 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What constitutes as notable

[edit]

You need to review WP:NSONGS for the notability criteria. A song that has not charted or received extensive third-party coverage (meaning coverage aside from the artist/label etc.) is not considered notable. You cannot create an article in expectation of notability. There's less than 4kb of information available. Once a song has more coverage e.g. release dates etc and an actual music video etc. then it is considered notable. If you weren't aware of what song I am talking about, I am referring to "Body Party". — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 19:22, 6 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I've undone your edit to the Albums chart section. We do not list charts as you did, we prefer to list them as the name of the country because many of the links for the chart do not exist and redirect to the chart provider's page. The way of listing them "Name of Country (Provider)" is less misleading. Also Belgium has two charts, Wallonia (for the french speaking part) and Flanders for the Dutch speaking part.

Improper page move at Legoland Florida

[edit]

Information icon Hi, and thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. It appears that you tried to give Legoland Florida a different title by copying its content and pasting either the same content, or an edited version of it, into Legoland Florida Resort. This is known as a "cut-and-paste move", and it is undesirable because it splits the page history, which is legally required for attribution. Instead, the software used by Wikipedia has a feature that allows pages to be moved to a new title together with their edit history.

In most cases, once your account is four days old and has ten edits, you should be able to move an article yourself using the "Move" tab at the top of the page (the tab may be hidden in a dropdown menu for you). This both preserves the page history intact and automatically creates a redirect from the old title to the new. If you cannot perform a particular page move yourself this way (e.g. because a page already exists at the target title), please follow the instructions at requested moves to have it moved by someone else. Also, if there are any other pages that you moved by copying and pasting, even if it was a long time ago, please list them at Wikipedia:Requests for history merge. Thank you.
