[edit]

Statements such as:

"As we listen to "Sara Tavares & Shout" we can hear gospel, soul, funk and pop influences
while we feel the power of Sara's beautiful voice and the strenght of her unique
interpretations."

should be avoided in an encyclopedic article. Please try to preserve a neutral point of view. Otherwise good article. Eixo 14:42, 29 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Plagiarism

This entire article (before my changes) is taken word for for word from this site:

It still might be a borderline copyright violation case. The best thing to do in these cases is to start from scratch. You can use that article as a source, but go find some other sources and then hash out something on your own without actually copying anything. Also, such source then should probably be listed in a References section. See citing sources for more details on how to properly cite sources in the references section. (in-text citations generally aren't needed, just include everything in a reference section at the end.) Give it another try and I (as well as every other Wikipedian) will be glad to take a look at it and fix it up. Also, see WP:Copyvio for more info on other steps you can take. Generally if you're able to make the article into non-infringing prose, then that is you need to do. Otherwise you might need to seek help or just have the page deleted.

--I've stripped the content down to it's bare bones. It's not pretty but it's NPOV and it's not plagiarism. I haven't found any other sources of content other than the press release, so I leave the adding of content to fans of her music. I don't know about the image though ... —Preceding unsigned comment added by Meekrob (talkcontribs)
