[edit] Merging from the single articles

To quote user:FuriousFreddy: if a song article is nothing but a recounting of how the song was made, and how well it did, without explaining that it was, in some way, important and influential to the music industry, there's really no reason for it. Just write good album articles, and selected articles on the important singles and album tracks, and let's keep the encyclopedia balanced. Encyclopedias aren't supposed to be "complete"; they are supposed to provide overviews and guide users to further information on a subject if they want to go beyond the standard level. Something like a Lindsay Lohan fan wiki would be a fine place to have an article on every Lohan song, but a general-purpose encyclopedia is not. See Wikipedia:Requests for comment/Pop music issues and Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Music/Notability and Music Guidelines/Songs. Why write dozens of short articles on singles, with no chances of actual expansion short of padding and marketing-report material (chart positions), when they can be combined into one album article?

[edit] Indonesia Chart?

I deleted the information about how the 3 singles did on Indonesia chart, because there's no cd-single sold in Indonesia, and Indonesia don't have any official chart like Billboard Chart in the US or Oricon Chart in Japan. There's gotta be someone who want to make everybody believe that cd-singles are sold in Indonesia...What a dumb person..
