Time (Clock of the Heart)

Just a question, Why did you remove some parts from the infobox, and the categories? The song and the band are clasified as new-wave and is 1982 song. And is very common to put the certifications in the infobox as well as to link them to the album. Just look at featured song articles, "Hollaback Girl", "Irreplaceable", and "Smells Like Teen Spirit". Frcm1988 (talk) 01:52, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Ok sorry, I apologize if I was too agresive with this, I tought that you were one of those control freaks, that need to have everything sourced, even the genre, and that keep removing some things just because they think is irrelevant. Well again sorry for jumping into conclusions. And I would try to get more info on this, so it don't qualify as a stub anymore, I would like to have this article at least at GA, but I don't think there are any info on the writing or recording process, I can't even find info about "Karma Chameleon". Well I think I get out of topic, thank you for your help. Regards. Frcm1988 (talk) 03:10, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Heart and Soul (Huey Lewis and the News song)

I know that you often heavily edit articles relating to Huey Lewis and the News, so I thought I'd leave you a message saying that I created a page for the song, "Heart and Soul" and that if you had any extra info to add, since you know more about the band than me, then feel free to add it. :) I have slowly been creating articles for all of the band's singles that did not have articles on Wiki, and am very thankful that you have added any information you have come across. You've done great work, thanks man! :) CarpetCrawler (talk) 23:29, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

		The Invisible Barnstar
		For doing such impeccable work in improving the quality of so many music articles, without getting any recognition at all. I thought you finally deserved some. Keep up the incredible work! CarpetCrawler (talk) 23:29, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

No problem on creating the articles. The band is one of my all time favorite bands, and I am more than happy to give them more than the tiny minimal amount of articles they had about a year ago! My goodness, you even have newspaper clippings! That would help the articles TREMENDOUSLY, especially if you cite the clippings and articles. When you have the time to get them, feel free to send me a message. We can both work together on an article about an album or a single, and bring it to GA or FA. :) Have a nice day! CarpetCrawler (talk) 00:10, 19 March 2009 (UTC)

I've now created the The Heart of Rock & Roll article. Now, all that's left to create from the Sports album is "Bad is Bad". Hard to believe that their most famous album had only two articles created for it at one point! Anyway, same deal, if you have any information to add, feel free to add it. :) Have a nice day! CarpetCrawler (talk) 06:23, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

Hmmm, I personally always felt that a song was notable if it was released as a single! I mean, the notability to me is established if it's been released as a single, which did happen with "Bad Is Bad". I've seen a picture of the single cover sleeve, but I can't seem to remember where I've seen it before! I also don't know where exactly it was released as a single. It's a fun song, and I agree that it's a favorite, and I love the music video! I have WAY too many favorites when it comes to that band, LOL! Oh well, when the time comes I'll see what I can do. Actually, I think I should go after more notable singles that still need to be created, like "Small World" and "It Hit Me Like a Hammer". Also, I may try to extend and work on an article and get it to GA quality. I'm thinking of doing it with "The Power of Love", since that is probably their most famous song, and the easiest to find information to. Also, do you know of anyplace where I can find information on songs they've done, like their origins and such? That's always the hardest things to find! Have a nice day! CarpetCrawler (talk) 08:01, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

OK, I understand what you mean. Do you think that "World to Me" and "Walking with the Kid" are notable enough for inclusion to Wikipedia? Both singles charted in the U.K., and I have the single covers for both. Just wondering. And here, It may have been a promo single release, though I KNOW I've seen a single cover somewhere... oh well. RE: It Hit Me Like a Hammer. That's a great idea, I'll go ahead and create the article later today, then you can add the single cover whenever you get it. :) Agreed with those choices, and I thought it would be a good idea to extend the "The Heart of Rock & Roll" article, and then nominate a fact for the Did You Know? thing on this Wiki, and it has been approved! :) Have a nice day!

Your recent edits

I don't think that your recent edit to Bat Out Of Hell (song) was entirely constructive. Adding flags is useful because they can provide a link to the country, and the written form of the country can provide a link to the national chart. In addition, Wikipedia is a professional website and adding the flags works well for keeping a formal presentation. You say that you removed the flags per MOS, which makes no sense at all because MOS stands for Museum Of Science. Please be careful in future, so you don't cause unwanted confusion amongst other editors. --Sky Attacker (talk) 21:12, 26 April 2009 (UTC)

CSD nomination of Category:Billboard 200 number-one albums

A tag has been placed on Category:Billboard 200 number-one albums, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G4 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be a repost of material that was previously deleted following a deletion debate, such as at articles for deletion. Under the specified criteria, where an article has substantially identical content to that of an article deleted after debate, and any changes in the content do not address the reasons for which the material was previously deleted, it may be deleted at any time.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), 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. Lastly, please note that if the page does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the page or have a copy emailed to you.

Number one singles

You are aware that one number-one singles subcat was kept, and two renamed, in recent CFDs? See Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2009 April 27#Number-one debut singles, Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2009 May 18#Number-one singles in the United Kingdom, Wikipedia:Categories for discussion/Log/2009 April 18#Category:Number-one singles in Canada. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 02:59, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Okay. Sorry about the WP:POINT accusation as well, but it did lead me to believe there was a cause and effect here. Still, I think that categories and lists aren't always mutually exclusive, especially in cases like this. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 03:35, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

I was actually uncertain about the album categories, and sent the Billboard 200 one to CFD only because it had deleted before and there was no precedent for the number one album categories. There does seem to be a precedent for the singles categories, though. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 03:41, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

With that one exception, the last CFD for the album categories was several years ago. I could easily see the album ones being restarted, as it makes sense — we have categories for all the singles, why not the albums? Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 03:54, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

Yeah, DRV would be a good idea. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • ^{(Many otters • One bat • One hammer)} 04:28, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

I Believe in a Thing Called Love

Hey Wolfer, on this edit were the categories you added mistaken? I took them out, if there were right somebody needs to find a reference. Zephyrnthesky (talk) 04:44, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

No biggie, I keep tabs on the Billboard #1 adult contemporary category and noticed it got added but wasn't in the chart table. There are a few extra songs on the Billboard Hot 100 #1 category too, but I don't watch over that one. It should match the total on the Hot 100 article, but there's a discrepancy. Probably a few songs listed there that may have hit #1 before it was called the Hot 100 in 1958. Zephyrnthesky (talk) 05:27, 3 June 2009 (UTC)

That's true, however I did find one that didn't belong there (only because it was towards the beginning): 'A' You're Adorable. Somebody used HotCat to change the category '#1 singles in the U.S.' to 'Billboard Hot 100 #1 singles' even though the song topped the pop chart in 1949. Maybe that was the only one, because I would guess that the former category is for songs pre-1955. Or for ones that don't have a more specific category created yet.

Hey, I just saw you tagging after me in editing a music article. Could you please help me by changing all links to One of These Days so that they point to One of These Days (Pink Floyd song) instead?

Exposé

I saw you moved this from "band" to "group". I know logically this is correct (vocal group, no instruments), but I thought "band" was just kinda the Wikipedia naming convention/standard in order to keep music-related articles uniform? I could swear about a zillion articles were changed a few years ago, i.e. TLC (band). I know there are a bunch of "band" articles where the artists aren't really a "band" per se. - eo (talk) 16:01, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

OK, no worries, I just wondered.... I thought the same thing you did when one day I saw the TLC thing and figured that was the agreed-upon standard. Later! - eo (talk) 16:20, 16 June 2009 (UTC)

American Dad! (season N)

Hello Wolfer68. What is the reason to keep useless redirects like American Dad! (season 1) - American Dad! (season 5)? They are IMHO of no use and perhaps examples for more useless redirects for other articles like this. To prevent this I think it is much better to delete them. --Ilion2 (talk) 07:59, 26 June 2009 (UTC)

Categories for number-one albums/number-one songs

While CfD tries to be consistent, unless there has been some kind of a previous consensus, any nomination can result in odd results. If you want an example of this, look at Category:Women by occupation. Vegaswikian (talk) 02:48, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

DRV is always an option, but you need a valid reason, not sure if there is a case here or not. Personally I would not try again since that could result in a speedy delete. You could also take it to the CfD talk page and see if you could get a consensus there. Vegaswikian (talk) 18:58, 4 July 2009 (UTC)

Merge/separation of different versions of the same song.

Removing redirects

I notice you recently removed a number of redirects from I Wanna Go Back (Billy Satellite song). Please check out WP:NOTBROKEN on this topic. ("There is nothing inherently wrong with linking to redirects. Some editors are tempted, upon finding a link to a redirect page, to remove the redirect and point the link directly at the target page. While there are a limited number of cases where this is beneficial, it is generally an unhelpful exercise, and it can actually be detrimental.")

Reasons not to remove redirects of song titles, i.e. to have separate titles for each song version, include:

1. A redirect can host categories that might not be appropriate at the main page
2. A redirect can target a specific section of the song article dealing with the particular version in question

Neither of these apply in this case and this is not widely done, so I don't really care if the redirects are removed but I thought you might want to know. If you have a good reason for the removals, please disregard this note and/or enlighten me. — AjaxSmack 23:15, 18 July 2009 (UTC)

Piped links

There is no need to use piped links as you are doing in many of your edits, such as you did in Now That's What I Call Music! 47 (UK series). Instead of this: [[Walk_of_Life|Walk of Life]]; just do this: [[Walk of Life]]. Thanks and happy editing. --Wolfer68 (talk) 01:28, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

• Or, rather, in this case, it should be [[Walk of Life (Billie Piper song)|Walk of Life]]; you don't need to use underscores. --Wolfer68 (talk) 01:52, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

I realise that in many cases the simple use of [[Walk of Life]] would often be enough to ensure the link to the correct page, but in some cases, this one in particular, there are several pages that "Walk of Life" could refer to (for example, in this case it could have been to the track in question (a Billie Piper Song), or to a different track by Dire Straits Walk of Life) and so the added extra of ensuring that the link goes to the correct page was, I felt, to be necessary to prevent linking to a wrong page. I felt that as this site was helping me so much in my attempt to catalogue and find the correct details for my music collection, the least that I could do was to ensure that any broken, missing, or incorrect links were corrected by myself while I was looking at those pages anyway. I have run into a few (not too many, but a few) instances where the links pointed to the incorrect page, so I wanted to ensure completely that any links that I made pointed to the exact page that I wished them to. Where underscores, etc, appear in the links, these do so because I have simply copied the link directly from the page it should link to (to ensure no typos or mispelling on my part). --Wolf3587 (talk)

Now That's What I Call Music! 73 (UK series)

Hi there! I see you've reverted a paragraph from this article on several occasions now. Can I ask what kind of source you consider to be acceptable to allow it to remain? First you say the paragraph is "unsourced", but when screenshots of the official Napster software are provided, apparently you don't consider that to be a "reliable" source either? Napster is a subscription service, accessible only from its own software. A screenshot is the only way to demonstrate the contents of the software at issue. If you'd like to sign up for the UK Napster service and try to download the album yourself, you can verify it for yourself? Bonusballs (talk) 23:00, 15 August 2009 (UTC)

While I'm doing my best to see your point, I don't see how you can decide that the non-availability of the album on a major music download service is not notable. You're constantly reverting this information on the article, while leaving similar information (which must surely be equally unsourced and or "not notable" in your eyes) untouched - e.g. that the album is also the first one which does not provide ringtones. Your reasons also seem to constantly change - first that the claim is "unsourced", then it's sourced but not by an "independent" source (which as I've said above is not possible when you can't deep link into a subscription-only service), then it's "not notable enough". I don't like screenshots either but you're the one insisting that I prove the ABSENCE of something - something which I'm sure you can understand that there are relatively few ways to do. I think it's unreasonable for you to revert useful text on this basis - if you applied those rules consistently across the whole article there'd be nothing there. While we all want articles that are factual and verifiable, I don't think constantly reverting and deleting reasonable and decent information encourages people to contribute to Wikipedia in any way at all - quite the reverse.

Why did you made the links for each one of the episodes redirect to the episode guide page instead?

Please, put the links back as they were if you can.
