is fan art, and is not an acurate depiction of the character. Please stop adding the image into the Angelica Pickles article. Thanks AGU! Defender (talk) 15:21, 17 June 2008 (UTC)
- It is fan art and continuing to add it to articles where it doesnt belong could result in a block. Please stop! Thanks AGU! Defender (talk) 09:35, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
- I've seen the Rugrats website, I've also seen all the great fan-art posted on there ;-) AGU! Defender (talk) 21:26, 18 June 2008 (UTC)
{{helpme|Can someone explain to me why pages like Songs about Girls and I Love My Chick have lowercase first letters on their 1st words? If someone could explain this,I'll be very happy. ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 14:15, 20 June 2008 (UTC)}}
- Hi, the reason for the pages having a lowercase first letter (when they shouldn't) is due to {{Lowercase}} being added to templates (in this case {{Will.i.am}}), causing Lowercase to transclude onto pages that the second template does. Thanks for pointing it out, the problem is now fixed! If you have any more questions, feel free to ask. RichardΩ612 Ɣ ɸ 15:36, June 20, 2008 (UTC)
- Glad someone figured that out, I was stumped! Nice work Richard, & I Like Music for pointing it out. xenocidic (talk) 15:46, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Drew Pickles
Drew Pickles redirects to List of Rugrats characters per Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Drew Pickles. Thanks AGU! Defender (talk) 16:06, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
- Note - That is an old vote however. If you still feel Drew Pickles needs an article, i'd be happy to nominate it for a fresh AfD. AGU! Defender (talk) 16:08, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
re:The Hot 100 articles
I understand that this may happen sometimes, but as these articles pertain to Billboard, things should be listed as they appeared on the chart. Billboard does not just randomly make up or decide who is "featured", instead they list things only as is negotiated between artist management, artist representation and record labels. Therefore "featured" artists who, for example, may be shown by MTV in a video remix will not be shown on any of the charts. Same thing goes with some other counties too, like the UK Singles Chart. - eo (talk) 00:05, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
RE: Love in This Club
combine electronica and pop... BANG electropop!!! It's not funk. Charmed36 (talk) 16:11, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
You need to read what funk is. This song is urban with a electro and mainstream pop mix. Charmed36 (talk) 16:30, 22 June 2008 (UTC)
Move requests
Hi. I have moved your two incomplete move requests for the N Sync and Plies (rapper) articles back to the "Incomplete and contested proposals" section of Wikipedia:Requested moves. If you wish to proceed with these move requests, you need to read and follow the steps written in the "Requesting potentially controversial moves" section on that page. Just re-pasting the original requests in the new section doesn't work. Give us a shout if you are still not clear. --DAJF (talk) 01:20, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
Proposed deletion of Señorita (Soulja Boy song)
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Señorita (Soulja Boy song), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Esanchez(Talk 2 me or Sign here) 01:20, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
- To start, confirm the song it a single. Not jut say it was released. There's more to that. --Esanchez(Talk 2 me or Sign here) 01:25, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

- You know that YouTube videos aren't much considered as reliable sources? Or at least, it's not enough. Why else was iDance was deleted? Because it's closest reference was the video and that's it. --Esanchez(Talk 2 me or Sign here) 01:33, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
- You can try that but not so sure of that's gonna go well. Third-party sources can help the most though. --Esanchez(Talk 2 me or Sign here) 01:41, 25 June 2008 (UTC)
- Like sites that mention the track as a single. I'm not sure if Soulja Boy's site's reliable but you ca put it. --Esanchez(Talk 2 me or Sign here) 01:47, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

AfD nomination of T-Wayne
I have nominated T-Wayne, an article you created, for deletion. I do not feel that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/T-Wayne. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Fair use rationale for Image:Drew_Pickles.jpg
Thanks for uploading or contributing to Image:Drew_Pickles.jpg. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use. Suggestions on how to do so can be found here.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Do you want to opt out of receiving this notice? Seraphim♥Whipp 15:52, 25 June 2008 (UTC)

You can remove this notice at any time by removing the {{Talkback}} or {{Tb}} template.
Love In This Club
The electronic samples in the song (the opening loop, the riff in the chorus, and the chords in the verses) are based off a trance package from Garage Band. And combining electronic elements and hip hop doesn't necessarily make it robot hip hop, especially since that article refers to electro funk, and the electronic sounds in Love In This Club are definitely much more modern. There have been some songs in recent times with electro funk influences, but this is not one of them. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.13.125.99 (talk) 21:21, 26 June 2008 (UTC)
- You look for any reason to add another stupid genre. You can put it, but people will remove it. Charmed36 (talk) 15:21, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

Love in This Club (3RR)
You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Love in This Club. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions on a single page within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors. If necessary, pursue dispute resolution. Strongsauce (talk) 18:17, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
Drew Image
It's upto a sysop whether the image is deleted or not. Please do not remove the speedy tag until this is done. Thanks AGU! Defender (talk) 19:09, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Why can we not use that image? ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 19:11, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Firstly, It's the Barney Bunch image of Drew. Secondly, he lacks the notability to warrent an image. AGU! Defender (talk) 19:12, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- The Barney Bunch image of Drew? But I found it at the official RugRats Website. ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 19:14, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- No, you did not. Its the exact image that the Barney Bunch edited and used on their YouTube videos. AGU! Defender (talk) 19:16, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Then,I'll upload a screenshot of him. ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 19:24, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Why? He's not notable enough! You just seem to be beating a dead horse now. AGU! Defender (talk) 19:27, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- He's not notable enough? Yes he is! ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 19:28, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- It just looks silly in that list. It will only be removed and deleted again! Just let it go and move on. AGU! Defender (talk) 19:30, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Then I'll get photos for all of them. ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 19:31, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- But the pictures would all be small and non-free images that are poorly used or not notable enough tend to be deleted. Face it, the adults from Rugrats are not notable, hence they don't have articles. Why don't you contrib with pics that can be used in the articles for the main characters that don't currently have images. Also, make sure you don't use fan-art ;-) AGU! Defender (talk) 19:36, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Where could I find official art of Angelica? ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 19:38, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- If I knew that I would upload the images myself :-) AGU! Defender (talk) 19:45, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- Nevermind,I found a part of the RugRats Website that has official art. ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 19:49, 27 June 2008 (UTC)

Señorita (Soulja Boy song)
Even if the song is has references, it still fails to meet the criteria to merit its own article. Under Wikipedia:Notability (music)#Songs, it clearly states: "Songs that have been ranked on national or significant music charts, that have won significant awards or honors or that have been performed independently by several notable artists, bands or groups are probably notable." Señorita fails to meet any of the aforementioned, and is to be redirect to Soulja Boy. Once it charts, let's say on Billboard, then it may have its own article. DiverseMentality(Discuss it) 19:35, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
Pictures
Hi, I've put some of the original pictures back as they depict the characters slightly better. Most of your pictures were great, however! Thanks AGU! Defender (talk) 23:09, 27 June 2008 (UTC)
- About the Kimi picture: It's a screenshot,so it's more accurate than an artwork image.
- About the Susie picture: I agree with you,mine isn't as good.
- About the Tommy picture: The one I put is more accurate,because the one that you put has Tommy wearing a hat,but he doesn't wear a hat in RugRats.
So yeah,that's what I think of your changes. ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 00:28, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, it depends on the quality of the picture and which picture depicts the character better.
RE: "So yeah,that's what I think of your changes" -- You really need to modify how you communicate with other wikipedians. Sarcasm does not help the project! AGU! Defender (talk) 11:00, 28 June 2008 (UTC)

You need to stop this childish behaviour. Accept how things work and move on!! Wikipedia is about talk and not; I think i'm right so i'm going to have my way! -- Now please let it be. Thanks AGU! Defender (talk) 14:01, 28 June 2008 (UTC)
Soulja Boy Tell [E][e]m
Why the lower-case E? --Andrewlp1991 (talk) 01:55, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
- But I thought that actual name comes before grammar. Currently, SB's official site, as well as All Music Guide and AOL Music use capital E. Thus, I'll use that. --Andrewlp1991 (talk) 01:58, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
Fourty
That's how it's *misspelled* in Canada and the UK. Please consult a dictionary (a real dictionary, printed or online) and I'm not talking about one that's several hundred years old. Chris the speller (talk) 14:11, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
- Then with all due respect, your mom's not a good speller. Editing Wikipedia to reflect your personal observations of the world violates the policy against original research laid out in WP:OR. Chris the speller (talk) 14:21, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

Do not change Ciara's genres. Myself and other users have debated over them and you should not change them. Charmed36 (talk) 15:20, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

- All of them. You seem very self-opinionated. Charmed36 (talk) 15:28, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
- But the article about herself states that R&B and crunk are 2 of her genres. Combine those 2...BANG! Crunk&B. ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 15:29, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry but one song can be contemporary R&B and the other song is Crunk&B. There's a different. Charmed36 (talk) 15:31, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
- Then we could put all 3 of those genres. ILikeMusicaLot (talk) 15:34, 2 July 2008 (UTC)

The song is pop rock, but an user thinks it's R&B because it won Best R&B song. The song wasn't sent to urban radio and failed to chart on the Rhythmic Top 40. Reply on my page. Charmed36 (talk) 16:32, 2 July 2008 (UTC)
In Search Of...
I decided to continue the talk here, since it was getting pretty lengthy on WP:RM.
Even if In Search Of... "doesn't look right" to you, that isn't a valid reason why the "of" shouldn't be capitalized. The current capitalization rules have been decided by community consensus, and they shouldn't be ignored for invalid reasons. If you think that this should be a policy, you might want to bring it up at WP:MUSTARD's talk page.
Thanks for understanding, Xnux the Echidna 14:29, 3 July 2008 (UTC)
Reply:R&B
It is going by medley, composition, and lyrics to determine the genre influence on the songs. That's why some on the songs have R&B first, then pop and so on. Charmed36 (talk) 16:43, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
Any genre can be capitalized first. Charmed36 (talk) 16:45, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
It wasn't suppose to be like that. It's more organized to me. Charmed36 (talk) 15:08, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
David Banner - Get Like Me
However, it is the proper title of a published musical piece. Therefore, to remain encyclopedic, the "L" must be capitalized.--InDeBiz1 (talk) 19:58, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for the rather incivil post on my page. I assure that I had already done what you suggested. Allow me to quote a specific passage that supports my rationale - "Do not capitalize second and subsequent words unless the title is almost always capitalized in English (for example, proper names)." - Thus my rationale is correct, as a song title is a proper name. --InDeBiz1 (talk) 19:58, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
- Sorry, but you're incorrect in this instance. --InDeBiz1 (talk) 20:41, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
The L should be capitalized. Look at the cover image, the L is capitalized, look on David Banner's myspace, the L is capitalized, look on iTunes, the L is capitalized. And (Stuntin Is a Habit) is not part of the song title. Again look at the cover image, do you see the words (Stuntin Is a Habit) anywhere on there? SE KinG (talk) 04:20, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
I know it was not the right way to do it. But I was just sick of the wrong article being used. SE KinG (talk) 19:38, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
RE: Go D.J.
Ok, my bad.
--Piazzajordan2 (Talk.) (Hows my editing?) 21:25, 7 July 2008 (UTC)
- This was not a correct page move. The proper title of the song is Go DJ, without the periods. See the article's talk page for more. --InDeBiz1 (talk) 22:32, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
SOMJ
Actually, you're wrong. That song has never been an active single. It was intended, at one point, but Universal Records decided to go with Body on Me as the second Nelly single, after Party People. They may move forward with the SOMJ project at some point in the future, but as of right now it fails policy to be listed as its own article. --InDeBiz1 (talk) 20:45, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
3RR Warning
You appear to be involved in an edit war on the Go DJ article. Please remember that three or more reversions in a 24-hour period is a violation of policy and you may be blocked from editing for violating the policy. Also, as you were the creator of the article in question, you may not remove the db tag, per the instructions on the template. If you wish to challenge the tag, please follow the instructions on the template. --InDeBiz1 (talk) 22:42, 8 July 2008 (UTC)
Request to move article 1, 2 Step incomplete
You recently filed a request at Wikipedia:Requested moves to move the page 1, 2 Step to a different title - however your proposal is either incomplete or has been contested as being controversial. As a result, it has been moved to the incomplete and contested proposals section. Requests that remain incomplete after five days will be removed.
Please make sure you have completed all three of the following:
- Added {{move|NewName}} at the top of the talk page of the page you want moved, replacing "NewName" with the new name for the article. This creates the required template for you there.
- Added {{subst:RMtalk|NewName|reason for move}} to the bottom of the talk page of the page you want to be moved, to automatically create a discussion section there.
- Added {{subst:RMlink|PageName|NewName|reason for move}} to the top of today's section here.
If you need any further guidance, please leave a message at Wikipedia talk:Requested moves or contact me on my talk page. - JPG-GR (talk) 00:21, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
Re: "I'll Be Lovin' U Long Time"
Hey.... Just so you know, the reason that I remove T.I. from the infobox is that he's only featured on the remix. Billboard is giving credit only to Mariah Carey. I do realise that the single cover does say "featuring T.I."; however, that's the cover for the remix. If you look at the edit history, you'll notice other editors removing T.I. as well.
On a side note, you shouldn't mark your edits as minor unless they truly are minor. If the edits are regarding contested/disputed information, it's not really minor. Just an FYI. SKS2K6 (talk) 20:56, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- It's debatable. But my understanding is that minor edits are only for things that are truly minor, as in things that don't change the content of the page. For example, typo/grammar mistakes, correcting links (including wikilinks), and perhaps even formatting issues can be considered minor. Oh, and reverting/correcting vandalism (cuz vandalism's garbage anyway). But if it's beyond that, then it would not be minor. The reason I bring this up is that I see many of your changes are regarding music genres. As there are people who are very ... I guess picky about what the "right" genres are, they can be debatable, which in turn makes the changes not minor. But it's up to you. Like, I know you're not deleting half a page and marking it minor, so it's not like a HUGE ERROR or anything. I'm just giving you a heads-up. SKS2K6 (talk) 21:29, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
Please remember to always assume good faith and to remain civil in your interactions with other editors. This edit summary is not in the spirit of standing civility policies and may bring unwanted attention to your account as a source of trouble and/or hostility around the project.

Britney Spears
Stop changing the genres for Britney Spears. The genres are supposed to be as vague as possible according to the musicians MOS. If you keep it up you run the risk of 3RR. Qb | your 2 cents 01:20, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
- Indeed. Please resolve this via talk page discussion, rather than edit warring. You're past WP:3RR by now, and are likely to be blocked if you continue reverting. – Luna Santin (talk) 01:47, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
First of all, I refer you to WP:Etiquette and WP:CIVIL. Do not approach anyone on their talk page with comments that begin "Is it really that hard to read my freakin' edit summary?" This is unacceptable per WP policy, please acquaint yourself with the proper way in which to interact with other editors.
Secondly, you aren't changing anything per Wikipedia rules, you are changing them according to your own POV. If you even bothered to read the definitions on the pages to which you're linking Winehouse's genres, you'd see that a) you are changing the R&B link so that it goes directly to a redirect page for the genre that was already there, and b) that soul music is defined as "a music genre that combines rhythm and blues and gospel music" - which is qualitatively different in definition than R&B, which also contains jazz influences. Meanwhile, Winehouse writes her own music, which extends her genre beyond just jazz vocals to jazz itself. Finally, on most pages, it is customary and correct to approach a change like this on the article's talk page before making such unilateral changes (and not to go to the user talk page to simply be contentious).

Re: Rider pt. 2
Ok, whatever, there's no reasoning with you-SCB '92 (talk) 18:15, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
Re:Move of Someone to Watch over Me (film)
I only performed the move, I did not come up with the reasoning (that was User:MrMarmite). However, since the two (functional) references showed the title with a capital O, I didn't see the harm in moving it. There's also Wikipedia precedent, as with One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (film). ... discospinster talk 22:22, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
- I was the one who undid the move to the "over" version. The film is spelled with "Over" and that, therefore, should be the name of the article. MrMarmite (talk) 07:34, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
Cuckoo's Nest
I wish you had looked at this page before making that move. Please note the image, Image:Cuckoo nest.jpg. As you can see, the actual title of the book is "One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest". The word Over is officially capitalized. The actual title is more important than a general capitalization rule. Do you object to my placing a request at WP:RM to restore? --JayHenry (talk) 22:47, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
- All fan sites? At any rate, I'll open a discussion at the talk page. This is a work of literature. Literary accuracy is more important that a general capitalization rule. Maybe we'll have to adjust WP:NC to make that a little bit clearer. --JayHenry (talk) 22:53, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
- I understand why you made the move, but I believe that the naming conventions are oversimplifications of generally accepted grammar rules (eg, "with" should be lowercase in titles, while "without" should be uppercase). I'm uncertain about "over", but perhaps we should discuss the matter in WT:NC in order to avoid any further edit wars or unnecessary work on either side?

Re moves
I capitalised the song title per the artist's own spelling (see the spelling on the image in that article). Others I left per your caps, because it was unclear how they should be spelt (I think the titles were in all-caps for those). Normally you'd be correct in changing the capitalisation, but where names of films, songs, books etc are spelt a particular way, these should follow the original title - it over-rides other capitalisation guidelines.

- Take Put Em In Their Place (which I notice you've moved again). Look at the image in the article - 'Em' is capitalised. I agree that by normal grammatical rules it shouldn't be, but the artist has decided to spell it that way. I also agree that it's a diminutive form of 'them', making it a preposition - again, normally not capitalised according to WP:NC. Strictly speaking, we should probably write Put 'em in their Place, but convention seems to be to follow the actual artist's spelling where possible. To be honest, it's ambiguous - maybe you could ask on WT:MUSTARD what the consensus is for these situations? EyeSerenetalk 16:20, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks for undoing the moves, but it's not ambiguous in the least. The actual title controls. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 17:00, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- Yes I know - I've phrased that badly. My apologies. What I meant was there's nothing on WP:NC or WP:MUSTARD that explicitly says this (at least, nothing I saw). I'm sure I have seen it somewhere, but couldn't find it... EyeSerenetalk 17:04, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
- Ah, I understand now what you meant. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 17:26, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
Avril
I reverted your edit because those genres had references and rule #1 is "dont remove facts that have refs". Dont get me wrong, i agree with you that pop rock should be/is her main genre but i think its not wrong to keep the others as well. ;) --Darth NormaN (talk) 20:29, 21 July 2008 (UTC)

Please do not add content without citing reliable sources, as you did to Eminem. Before making potentially controversial edits, it is recommended that you discuss them first on the article's talk page. If you are familiar with Wikipedia:Citing sources please take this opportunity to add references to the article. Contact me if you need assistance adding references. Thank you. Eminem is an R&B singer?? Are you serious??? Do U(knome)? yes...|or no 23:24, 21 July 2008 (UTC)
Your page moves
Looking at your edit history, I see that today you've done quite a few more page moves, and that again many of them involve changing the titles of things. Since you were just overruled with the page moves you did yesterday, don't you think it might be a good idea to stop doing these moves for a while, and, if do see something that you think is an egregious problem, to discuss the move on the article's talk page before you make another possibly contentious page move?

Don't become a troll
I'm very seriously asking you not to add trolling to your list of wiki-misdemeanors. Do not come after me, the articles I edit or the images I upload because you feel I have wronged you in the past. Now I've been very patient with you, I've tried to be helpful and friendly. Now you need to return the favour! Start being more civil, start talking more and most importantly. Dont Troll ;-) All Grown Up Whovian 07:10, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
- Just so you know, I've sorted the problem now by adding the correct licence. In future, I'd prefer if you'd inform me of any mistakes I've made by contacting me on my talk page. That would make me aware of it without going through official channels, and helps me correct it a lot quicker! The best way to help the project is through wikipedians working together, not against each other. Thanks All Grown Up Whovian 12:44, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
Rihanna Page
Hello. I am just wondering why you have given Rihanna that list of awards back. I cleaned up the Rihanna Awards page so if you want to access it, all you have to do is go to Rihanna click Awards and then click List of Awards. Please note that this is not vandalism like you said it was. I was only fixing up the page because the Rihanna Awards PAge had a box that said
This user page may require cleanup to meet Wikipedia's quality standards. No cleanup reason has been specified. Please help improve this user page if you can. |
I did what it said and now your changing it so all my work is nothing? I'm reverting your edits.rm41194 12:53, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
RE RE Rihanna Page

Thank you for moving these articles
I would like to thank you personally for moving Wikipedia pages like One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest and Someone to Watch over Me. It was very bold to do so, and it was justifiable too: WP:CAPS directly supports this. However, some users haven't read the guidelines don't feel like the articles should be named as such, and have moved them back. I'm currently trying to change them back, but it isn't going so well.... Anyway, thank you, and illegitimi non carborundum. Xnux the Echidna 20:02, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, it's nice to be bold, but it's better to be right. Ed Fitzgerald (unfutz) (talk / cont) 21:53, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
moving the conversation to TOS article
I see that I shouldn't have used ANI to discuss content stuff. I would like to move my comments about the TOS move to the talk page of the article so readers of that talk page will see all the arguments on a single place (only the "Who's the Boss" part will remain at ANI). Do I have your permission to move your reply also? --Enric Naval (talk) 03:18, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
- I think the TOS thing is solved. In the future, could you base your moves on how the title is spelled on official sources? --Enric Naval (talk) 05:29, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
Rider pt. 2 Please discuss
- Please discuss this matter at Wikipedia:Requested moves#Incomplete and contested proposals. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 16:40, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
Rider Pt. 2
Hello, Joshua,
First of all, I apologize about Ed Fitzgerald's comments here. Don't let grumpy users scare you off.
On a side note, I noticed you moved "Rider Pt. 2" back to "Rider pt. 2". I can understand why you did this, but since "Pt." is an actual part of the song name, not a descriptor, it should be capitalized. I know you're probably sick and tired of receiving these messages, but this will hopefully avoid more confusion. Thank you, and happy editing! Xnux the Echidna 16:49, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
RE:Mr. Carter
There was no proof of saying it was a single, just because it has charted on the charts high, it dosent mean that it's a single. Also, the other source clearly states that "Mrs. Officer" is the next single.
--Piazzajordan2 (Talk.) 19:41, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
- That dosent mean anything, You Aint Got Nuthin was released with a cover but its not a single.

RE:G-Unit
This is why. Sorry about all these messages you've been receiving, everyone is just trying to help. --JpGrB 23:05, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
- Yes, and in your edit, you made the one part "East Coast hip hop", which it specifically says (even using "East Coast hip hop") that it shouldn't be used. They are "hip hop", not just "East Coast hip hop". --JpGrB 23:31, 23 July 2008 (UTC)
