Another One Bites The Dust

You've made a legitimate nomination. My concern has been that some people will simply glance at the titles and think that it was a "cover" version, but the Wyclef Jean song is like a lot of "rap versions" of 1970s and 1980s hits, with additional lyrics. Ideeally, "Merge" would be the best solution, although some fans of both artists would probably look at that as heresy (in other words, a Queen fan might edit out the reference, or a Wyclef Jean fan would do another spinoff article). Unlike Weird Al's "Another One Rides The Bus", the Wyclef Jean song was a hit in its own right. To sum up, I disagree with deleting the article, but I think it's good that you brought the subject up for discussion. Mandsford (talk) 16:10, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'll post my reply under here rather than cluttering things up with a new header....
I did read the guideline, and I do believe it is notable. It says "Songs that have been ranked on national or significant music charts [...] are probably notable." This song, as the remix, has ranked on two national top ten lists, and was the artist's third song to have done so. This song, as the remix, also appeared in a notable film. We have sources to verify that information, so it has and demonstrates notability outside of the original Queen version.
Thanks - I retake it every now and then, but since they keep trimming the test down, my score keeps getting lower. It's kind of odd. Hersfold (t/a/c) 19:15, 23 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Hey

I was born in 1966 and The Beatles were my favourite band until I was 10 when I was also member of the Beatlemania fan club. I know enough well their story and recordings. Revolver, Sgt. Pepper's, The White Album and Abbey Road are great albums. Currently, they are not in my favourite subjects or in my watchlist. —PJoe F. (talkcontribs) 21:05, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

P.S.: Hey! I liked your user page especially for the userbox with “ideal system of government, in theory.” But the theory must become action/practice. I saw you are a member of The Beatles WP. I must pay something to that project because I created the Clash WP with most of the material cribbed from Pink Floyd and Beatles WikiProjects. Major thanks to all of them! —PJoe F.

Just to show how great we are at Wikiproject The Beatles, Vera, Chuck & Dave spotted your request and answered it for me (what a nice person). Follow Vera's instructions on the links above, and a big welcome to the project. If you need any help at all, just leave a message on my page (which Vera may answer) or one on his page (which I may answer :))--andreasegde (talk) 23:25, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ah-hah, I have just loked at the participants page and you are on it. You put your name at the top, above Kingboyk's, who is a founder member, so I respectfully placed it at the bottom of the participants list. It doesn't mean you are not worth anything, but means that you are a new member, which is much better than us old cronies. We look forward to your contributions. :)--andreasegde (talk) 23:29, 24 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
