[edit] Merging from the single articles

SHE IS A FAT UGLY FAG, 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?

the song is a notable song by a notable artist and has charted in many charts, like kelly clarkson, mariah carey, britney spears so why dont you let the article be? if you do this to lindsay lohan then why not theirs?

I absolutely agree on that--hottie 13:51, 12 March 2006 (UTC)
I agree. Lillygirl 07:06, 20 May 2006

[edit] Gold certification?

Can anyone supply a citation for this reference? The 500,000 sales figure itself is dubious (I can find no reputable source) and the RIAA website does not list any certification. Absent a trusted source, I intend to remove this reference per WP:CITE. RadioKirk talk to me 04:40, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Okay, found the source. On the other hand, there still is no reputable source for the assertion that "Fastlane" is the next single; it seems to have started at ContactMusic, which is often quite wrong. RadioKirk talk to me 17:31, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Worldwide Sales

Does anyone know what this has sold worldwide... roughly?

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:A Little More Personal (Raw) album cover.jpg

Image:A Little More Personal (Raw) album cover.jpg is being used on this article. 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 this Wikipedia article 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.

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 there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
