Santa Claus Is Comin' to Town was Mariah's last single. -- getcrunkjuicecontribs 23:05, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Underneath the Stars, Honey (song), Mariah Carey

"O Holy Night" was released as a promo-only radio single in late 1996. Also, about Mariah Carey: you're not supposed to replace free-licensed images with non-free ones, see Wikipedia:Fair use criteria. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 16:07, 26 February 2006 (UTC)

You've removed "Till the End of Time" from the chronology on Make It Happen without explanation, when it was a promotional single in Central America. Please explain. Extraordinary Machine 22:08, 1 March 2006 (UTC)

Charmed, the source on the image page says that you took it from a geocities page. That page [1] clearly states that all the images are copyright by Rhythm Records. That would make the picture unfree and not useable on wikipedia without a free use justification. Sue Anne 03:31, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] License tagging for Image:Skjermbilde12nq.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Skjermbilde12nq.jpg. Wikipedia gets hundreds of images uploaded every day, and in order to verify that the images can be legally used on Wikipedia, the source and copyright status must be indicated. Images need to have an image tag applied to the image description page indicating the copyright status of the image. This uniform and easy-to-understand method of indicating the license status allows potential re-users of the images to know what they are allowed to do with the images.

For more information on using images, see the following pages:

[edit] Please cite

Your changes to the Ciara article were reverted. You must WP:CITE additions such as this. --Yamla 01:08, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

You said: "Why was the information I included to Ciara's article REMOVED? This is unfair. It is correct. Every time I add information to an article, I'm always putting wrong information."
As I pointed out to you, you must cite your additions. --Yamla 19:43, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

Please don't place the Check on It song as Pop as it's not. Thanks Jaranda wat's sup

[edit] Serious image copyright problems

This account has a history of uploading images without specifying the source or copyright information. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. Please do not upload any further images unless you are willing to correctly specify both the source and copyright. --Yamla 01:10, 15 May 2006 (UTC)

I note that you are still uploading a huge number of images without specifying an accurate source or without including the mandatory detailed fair-use rationale for every use of the copyrighted images. Please be more careful! --Yamla 20:12, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] June 2006

[edit] List of Beyoncé songs

I redirected it to Beyoncé Knowles discography because the article just repeats all the information that is already present in her discography article, and it doesn't make sense to have two articles about the same thing. I started a discussion at Talk:Beyoncé Knowles, and it was agreed that the article is unnecessary. If you believe that the article is necessary, you can discuss why at Talk:Beyoncé Knowles. --Musicpvm 22:23, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

Um, no, I am not watching you. You redirected 1, 2 Step (the correct grammatical title of the song) to 1,2 Step (an incorrect title), so I fixed that. --Musicpvm 22:21, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
You know, you can use the "history" button to see previous versions of pages? They are not gone. Click here for the version of 1,2 Step before it was redirected. If you want to add any of that material to 1, 2 Step, go ahead, but please do not redirect the article to an incorrect title. --Musicpvm 22:38, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ciara

You said: "I put a citing source beside chart positions on Ciara's singles. There is no need to put a stub saying it needs a source."

Yes, but the citation does not cite the chart positions listed. It only cites a very small minority of them. --Yamla 22:42, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
Please STOP removing the notverified tag in the article on Ciara. --Yamla 19:12, 26 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Never Too Far

Please don't undo my edits without discussion or explanation. With the length the article is at the moment, it just looks messy to have both a music video screencap and the infobox. Extraordinary Machine 21:53, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

Also, about Butterfly (Mariah Carey song): 1) it peaked at #16 on the Hot 100 Airplay and b) make sure you link to the right article, e.g. gospel music and not gospel. Thanks. Extraordinary Machine 21:57, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

That doesn't appear to be a Billboard chart; see [2] for Billboard chart positions. Extraordinary Machine 22:06, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] July 2006

[edit] Infobox single templates

Please do not replace infobox single templates with raw code. The templates should be used on articles for several reasons. The code for the template occupies less space and is more organized and is in turn easier to edit. Also, when changes are made to the actual template, the changes appear on all the articles that use the template. If the templates are replaced with raw code, the changes will not appear in these articles and the single infoboxes will not be consistent with other single infoboxes. --musicpvm 23:12, 7 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image copyright problem with Image:Jennifer-lopez-09 (2).jpg

The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact me, or ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 19:19, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Call on Me

Hi, you keep removing the fact that "Call on Me" has hit number nine in Japan according to the Tokio Hot 100. Many other singles on Wikipedia use this chart as the peak position in Japan. For example, We Belong Together. Please stop randomly changing this without explanation. Thankyoubaby 21:40, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ciara

You said: "Were you the one that removed Ciara's And I single cover because it is gone and for what reach if you did it?"

Yes. The image was orphaned. However, the fundamental problem was that the image was missing the detailed fair-use rationale required by the license. All copyrighted images require a source (which identifies the copyright holder), an accurate license, and a detailed fair-use rationale for every use of the image on the Wikipedia. --Yamla 20:10, 25 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:Get Up.jpg)

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Get Up.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Yamla 00:49, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:And I.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:And I.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed.

[edit] Blocked

You have been blocked for continuing to upload copyrighted images without specifying the mandatory information. --Yamla 00:49, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

You sent me an email asking why you were blocked. As noted here, you were blocked for continuing to upload copyrighted images without specifying the mandatory information. In the most recent case, you once again left out the mandatory detailed fair-use rationale. --Yamla 04:02, 26 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationales

ALL COPYRIGHTED IMAGES NEED A DETAILED FAIR-USE RATIONALE JUSTIFYING THEIR USE. Just adding the license is not sufficient. Please do not add any more images without the detailed fair-use rationale. --Yamla 04:08, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

You said: "This image qualifies as fair use because it is a legitimate cover of the album Design of a Decade 1986/1996. It was released in Japan with the international tracklisting."

Please see here for more information on how to add a detailed fair-use rationale. Note that you must justify each specific article you are using the copyrighted image in. Also, the rationale generally goes on the image page, not the discussion page. Also, you need to sign the rationale. Thanks! --Yamla 04:14, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] How to sign

You can sign your comments by adding --~~~~ at the end of your message. That is, two minus signs and four tildes. --Yamla 04:24, 27 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationales

Hi! Thanks for adding fair use rationales to images. Two things to point out: you can remove the "fair use is disputed" tag when you add a rationale; and please also change the record label for album covers. And there's a typo in #1 (it says "am" instead of "an"). Thanks — getcrunk what?! 16:17, 31 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Image:Beyoncebdaypromo.jpg not a screenshot

Please, update the image tag for Image:Beyoncebdaypromo.jpg. {{musicpromo-screenshot}} is for music videos screenshots, and that image doesn't seems one. If I'm wrong, please, let me know. Best regards, --Abu Badali 00:50, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

Is it really a promotional image? I mean, does it comes from a press kit or something similar? We need to be sure of that in order to use the {{promotional}} tag. The source given (the "Bootylicious Beyoncé" site) doesn't seems as the original source for this artist's promotional material. --Abu Badali 01:30, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
That's the site I got the promo picture from. It is a promo pic, but Sony must have released it. Charmed36 3 September 2006 (UTC)
And how can we be sure it's a promotional image if all we knew so far is that it's displayed on Bootylicious? --Abu Badali 01:36, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
Many sites have the same promo picture. I got it from that one.
Charmed36 3 September 2006 (UTC)
Many sites have copyright violations. If we can't be sure it's a promotional image, we can't use the {{promotional}} tag. --Abu Badali 01:40, 4 September 2006 (UTC)
The webmaster says on the site, "I've added a new B'Day promo picture. Click on the image to check it out." [[3]] [[4]]
The point is: Is bootyliciou's webmaster a reliable source? Can we take bootyliciou's webmaster's word for thruth? Does bootyliciou's site cares about copyright just as much as Wikipedia does? Does them provide the source for the image's they use?
You could, though, mail bootyliciou's webmaster and ask him what's the original source for that photo. --Abu Badali 01:53, 4 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] B'Day

Please? I'll remove the release date(s) of the album as often as I consider it as necessary, because: Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums#Details (by the way) ...

[edit] Re: Britney Spears

OK, In The Zone has some urban-oriented songs, but it doesn't make her a urban music singer. Madonna also had some R&B-influenced albums but it also doesn't make her an R&B singer. Funk Junkie 22:30, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

Are you sure? Have you got any sources? Funk Junkie 22:34, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
OK so, let's keep it like this for some time while we haven't got reliable sources. Funk Junkie 22:39, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Get Up

You asked: "Why was the image removed from Ciara's [[Get Up (Ciara song) article?"

Which image? Image:Ciaragetupvid.jpg? As stated on the image page, it was not being used to provide critical commentary on the music video, nor was there a mandatory detailed fair-use rationale justifying its use. --Yamla 22:18, 26 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Naughty Girl and Naughty Girl (Beyoncé song)

  1. Please never move pages by cutting and pasting the content into a new title. Pages should only be moved by using the "Move" tab at the top of each page.
  2. You may not have been aware of it, but Wikipedia has its own style guide described in the Wikipedia:Manual of Style. Please try to follow its advice. Edits that do not follow these guidelines may be changed to match what the WP:MOS recommends. Wikipedia does not require writers to follow all or any of these rules, but their efforts will be more appreciated when they do so.
  3. Currently, many articles still contain links to Naughty Girl, when those links should be changed to Naughty Girl (Beyoncé song). When you move an article to another title and create a disambiguation page at the article's original location, you should correct any links leading to the disambiguation page so that they lead to the correct page. See Wikipedia:Disambiguation#Links_to_disambiguated_topics.
  4. I have noted that you often edit without an edit summary. Please do your best to always fill in the summary field. This is considered an important guideline in Wikipedia. Even a short summary is better than no summary. An edit summary is even more important if you delete any text; otherwise, people may think you're being sneaky. Also, mentioning one change but not another one can be misleading to someone who finds the other one more important; add "and misc." to cover the other change(s). Thanks! Extraordinary Machine 14:50, 30 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Get Up (Ciara song)

Please do not remove maintenance notices from pages unless the required changes have been made. If you are uncertain whether the page requires further work, or if you disagree with the notice, please discuss these issues on the page's talk page before removing the notice from the page. These notices and comments are needed to establish community consensus about the status of a page. Thank you. Extraordinary Machine 17:47, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

I would like to thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. However, it is recommended that you use the preview button before you save; this helps you find any errors you have made, and prevents clogging up recent changes and the page history. Thanks again. --Geniac 00:17, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:CiaraTheEvolution.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:CiaraTheEvolution.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be a justification explaining why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may 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. Yamla 14:13, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Beyonce

Hey, are you also getting annoyed with Funk Junkie (talk contribs)? He seems to have absolutlely no understanding of genres. It is fact that Beyonce is a pop musician, and he keeps removing the pop genre from her article and from the "Naughty Girl" and "Check on It" articles. --musicpvm 16:42, 17 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:T63102u2zxf.jpg

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:T63102u2zxf.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. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, 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.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 fair use images 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. Yamla 19:04, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Blocked

You have been blocked for seven days for continuing to remove tags from images without resolving the underlying problem. You've been warned about this several times and most recently removed the no-rationale tag from Image:T63102u2zxf.jpg without providing a detailed fair-use rationale for the use of that image. You are welcome to resume editing once the block expires but we cannot have you continue to remove tags from images. This puts Wikipedia at direct risk of copyright infringement litigation. --Yamla 20:50, 23 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] PCD

No after a discussion we agreed the genres i put in were correct. So leave them be. Consider this a warning or I will request you be blocked. --JJH1992

[edit] Re: And I

Sorry for the late reply. I personally consider "And I" a pop song – it's got that acoustic guitar-driven sound, you know? But I'm not sure as well. Funk Junkie 16:00, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:1302nsns.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:1302nsns.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image is unlicensed for use on Wikipedia and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. 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 fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Gay Cdn (talk) (Contr.) 15:35, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Warning

I've told you plenty of times to leave PCD's genres alone. Nobody wants your constant changing so quit it. I'm going to find a way to request you be blocked —The preceding unsigned comment was added by JJH1992 (talkcontribs) 15:47, 7 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Re: LoveStoned

The reasons I nominated the LoveStoned article for deletion are a) it didn't cite it sources, which means it violates the "Wikipedia is not a crystal ball" policy, and b) every time I redirected it to the FutureSex/LoveSounds article, I was reverted. There's no point merging the article if isn't sourced to begin with and the redirect will be undone anyway. Hope you understand. Extraordinary Machine 13:17, 10 December 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Pcdwaitaminute.jpg

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Pcdwaitaminute.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. When you use a generic fair use tag such as {{fair use}} or {{fair use in|article name}}, 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.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

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 fair use images 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. Yamla 18:18, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ciara: The Evolution

The article is certainly not perfect. The whole idea behind Wikipedia is that users collaborate to improve articles. As far as the information that I removed, it constitutes original research unless a source can be provided. —ShadowHalo 02:57, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

If the meaning of the title is correct, then you need to be able to provide a source. I suggest you read Wikipedia:Verifiability, which states "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth". As far as having lots of people edit an article, I strongly suggest that you read Wikipedia:Ownership of articles. "If you don't want your material to be edited mercilessly or redistributed by others, do not submit it." —ShadowHalo 03:07, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
I found a source for the title. The second sentence is a bit general, so I have my doubts that it'll be possible to find one, and it is probably best removed. —ShadowHalo 03:16, 14 December 2006 (UTC)
