i have no idea what most of the american musicians are even doing on the list. they are more r&b and hip hop or disco, and not eurodance.

Many of these aren't Eurodance

Agree with the previous comment about the US, and also half the UK artists listed are not true Eurodance. I'm also sceptical about some of the other european lists as well. 217.155.138.250 22:23, 25 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Meaningless?

Is this article/list really necessary? Several groups do not belong to the genre, and some of the links go to completely different articles. There are lots of red links and not all of these artists are significant. In my opinion it would be better to use categories: Eurodance artists and Eurodance artists from country X. The lists would then automatically be updated, include only significant artists and always link to the correct articles. Another option is to organize the list more like List of alternative rock artists (columns, only blue links etc.), but personally I prefer the category option (that applies to all genres). 83.109.101.37 (talk) 19:55, 21 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Debation of Pitbull's "Rain Over Me"

This is not a Eurodance track. I don't see the properties of it in this song nor does it resemble one. It features two artists from the United States. The sources used are nothing but non-music oriented newspaper sources. Here are other sources that do NOT say that "Rain Over Me" is Eurodance, and they're both music oriented:

http://www.allmusic.com/album/rain-over-me-mw0002227903 http://rateyourmusic.com/release/single/pitbull/rain_over_me/

I know genres are largely opinion, but this one is ridiculous.--F-22 RaptörAces High♠ 16:17, 12 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Both sources explicitly describe this song as "Eurodance" and this genre even appeared in the corresponding article. Note that the two sources you provided are unreliable. Synthwave.94 (talk) 12:21, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
And as shown, both my sources do not state that the song is Eurodance. So how are they unreliable? Are you saying articles from non-music sites are more reliable? The Allmusic source is a standard database website whereas the RateYourMusic source is a collaboration of opinions from several people who's main purpose is to solely listen to and judge music to offer a final opinion. User-contributed sources for genres are arguably far more reliable due to the combined opinion of many as opposed to the opinion of one, so-called professional, opinions from people working with newspapers who probably don't even work with music. There are many examples where somebody calls this genre X in a source but people who actually listen to these albums debate these sources because they know in their right mind that it's not this genre. There needs to be a new system implemented officially on Wikipedia regarding music genres, because we're not necessarily talking about factual information.--F-22 RaptörAces High♠ 17:03, 18 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
Again your sources are unreliable. Rate Your Music is a user-generated website while AllMusic sidebars are unreliable and are never used to support genres additions. Anyway just because there are sources which don't mention Eurodance doesn't mean it doesn't belong to the genre. Sources provided in this list explicitly call this song "Eurodance".

"There needs to be a new system implemented officially on Wikipedia regarding music genres, because we're not necessarily talking about factual information." : maybe should you discuss it here ?
You failed to address any part of my argument. Don't tell me again that they're unreliable. Explain to me how they are?--F-22 RaptörAces High♠ 16:52, 19 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]
