Page[edit]

I believe that we have enough information on this song to create it's own page. Why does it keep getting redirected to Blink-182? -Jak (talk) 22:51, 4 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Cover art[edit]

I uploaded the cover art for "Up All Night" as File:Blink-182 Up All Night.jpg earlier today. The image was recently removed from this article because the "image source link returns a 404 error". The source I used was AbsolutePunk, who seems to be updating their website at the moment which is likely prompting the 404 error. In my browser, I get a friendly little message that says the site is down for maintenance. I believe AP's source for the image was Amazon.fr (or France's Amazon.com) who is displaying the same image.

As we are dealing with non-free images here, it behooves us to wait until an actual single release for this song is announced before we go adding possible cover art found in various corners of the interwebs. Only when an actual release of the thing is announced are we likely to get "official" cover art, track listings, etc. Wikipedia isn't news and doesn't need to be first on the scene; We can wait for an actual announcement before we go assuming that this or that image found here or there is actually the cover art for a single release of this song. --IllaZilla (talk) 23:26, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

You're a regular, so I know you probably have the first sentance of WP:V inscribed into your brain by now. A reliable source with a reputation for fact-checking accuracy has declared this image to be the cover art for the single. It may or may not be true, but it's certainly verifiable—which is all Wikipedia is really looking for. Adding this image seems consistent with the guidelines to me.

Amazon.com is a retailer, not a "reliable source with a reputation for fact-checking and accuracy". The sources we are looking for are news sources, music publications, etc...not shopping sites. The fact that a single (in any of the usual formats: CD, vinyl, digital) hasn't yet been announced (the song's airplay debut was just announced yesterday, for pete's sake) makes these things speculative and somewhat suspect. We have no deadline, we're not a hype/marketing machine, we can wait. If this turns out to actually be the artwork, fine, but it seems quite speculative for a song that hasn't even been played yet and for which no release as a single has even been announced. --IllaZilla (talk) 23:49, 14 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

...but AbsolutePunk is the source, not the retailer. I only said "I believe" amazon.com to be AP's source and provided a link so you could see a third-party website (reliable or not) with the same image since the AP is down for maintenance. AP didn't post their source, so I can't say where they truly got that image to any degree of certainty. For all I know Interscope emailed it to them directly. AP's news posting only read: "I posted the high-resolution version of the new Blink 182 single album cover in our gallery." In fact, now that I think about it, AP's image was of a much higher resolution than the one found on Amazon, so the retailer likely wasn't their source.

The presence of this artwork on the band's Facebook and on their website for the song has changed my mind. It's likely that is, or will be, the artwork for the eventual single. I tend to be wary of "too soon"-ness with these types of things, as of course the internet-blogo-hype machine often produces many rumors and purportedly "official" things that turn out to be speculative or outright false, and we want to avoid letting WP get bombarded with hype. --IllaZilla (talk) 04:11, 15 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request from 86.176.5.197, 16 July 2011[edit]

{{edit semi-protected}} Although some fans reacted negatively to the new style heard, more akin to Delonge's side-project Angels & Airwaves, the song went straight to the number 1 rock song on Itunes and into the top 20 of all songs on Itunes, showing its popularity.

Charts[edit]

currently the charts section is blank. should it be left like this, add some chart positions, or be removed? --121.212.16.220 (talk) 20:42, 11 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]
