Dance Song

How come in the description it says "Latin Pop, Electropop, Disco" and not "Dance"? This track is a club-friendly dance song (it also has lots of elements of "House" music), so I think we should name it that way.

By the way, nothing about this song is "Electropop".

Also, can someone stick something in about this song being completely unrelated to the Megadeth song but the same name? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.60.21.235 (talk) 19:24, 14 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

The song I say to search for the Genre of a Jamiroquai song, becuase this song sounds like something they will do. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.142.225.200 (talk) 20:39, 19 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"She Wolf"

Since the album is going to be called "She Wolf" as well, shouldn't the song's article be "She Wolf (Song)" and the album "She Wolf"?

"Would World Latin Top 30 Singles count as a chart for Loba?"

I want to know if it does because it should be in the Charts section of the page. For the week of July 25th 2009, the song has peaked at #10, rising up 18 positions since the prior week where it was at #28. Here is the link for the chart: http://top40-charts.com/chart.php?cid=34.

Also according to the same site on the song's chart history on other Spanish charts Chile Top 20: #3 (as of July 18th 2009) Spain Top 20: #18 (as of July 16th 2009)

Here is the link for reference: http://top40-charts.com/song.php?sid=27054

No. top40-charts.com is listed at WP:Record charts#Websites to avoid. The only acceptable charts from top40-charts.com are listed at WP:GOODCHARTS, and even those are marked with a warning not to add any more links to them. They aren't very reliable at archiving charts, they make some of them up, and they mislabel others.—Kww(talk) 22:42, 25 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

What does "citation needed" mean?

How does this "The song has received positive reviews[citation needed]" mean? The text clearly has like 5 or 6 references. Do not apply to ask for cites when two or three words later you find the first reference. I don't understand. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.224.212.208 (talk) 09:28, 31 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Charts

Please stop removing what I put in the charts performance section regarding the ARIA Australian ones. They are actual facts, not just my opinion. It IS true that Shakira's song is dropping cause of the plummet in digital sales, and it is ironic that the physical sales are ascending greatly —Preceding unsigned comment added by Catsmartie (talk • contribs) 11:36, 13 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

You need to read up on WP:OR. You can only say such things if you have a reliable third-party source to quote.—Kww(talk) 12:56, 13 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong, again I don't know why I keep making the same mistake...? Really sorry I forgot I did a couple extra wrong edits. --Huik01 (talk) 05:56, 28 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Mov req

The result of the move request was: Move. Jafeluv (talk) 17:33, 7 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

She Wolf (Shakira song) → She Wolf (song) — Someone has turned She Wolf (song) into a disambiguation page when there is no apparent need. He/She has done so because band Megadeth have a song called "She-Wolf" on their album Cryptic Writings yet there is no evidence that the song is ever going to be released a single or have an article of its own. It has also recieved nowhere near as much coverage as She Wolf (Shakira song) and therefore I do not see a rational or need for such dab. --Lil-unique1 (talk) 02:23, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support. The DAB should be at She Wolf, anyway, and guess what... there already is one there. So the new two-way DAB at She Wolf (song) is redundant for three different reasons: No need to disambiguate as the Megadeth song is unlikely to have an article, no need for a two-way DAB in any case, and there's an existing DAB at a better name that already covers it.

Yahoo! source

Although Yahoo! is a reputable source as it has editorial policy and experts, this particular review is from a member of the public with no details of his qualification to write such a review. I'd classify this particular review as unreliable. → Lil-℧niquԐ 1 - { Talk } - 17:29, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

This shouldn't be used as a source either per WP:SPS. Judging by the blogger's profile, it lacks any real notability. As anyone can create a blog and write anything, this does not appear to be a high quality source. Andrzejbanas (talk) 13:03, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Generally things posted to eBlogger or BlogSpot are not reliable. → Lil-℧niquԐ 1 - { Talk } - 17:30, 19 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]
