[edit] Please do not go against consensus
Saludos, and welcome to Wikipedia. Here, we work through consensus when dealing with controversial actions regarding articles. In the Reggaeton article, the title does not have an acute accent as in Spanish because there was a discussion a while back, which can be found here, in which it was decided to keep the title without the accent. So, please do not move the page again without consensus. If you want it to be moved, please leave a message at the talk page saying so. ¡Gracias! --Agüeybaná 23:24, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Sigh
Man you're a nuisance, seriously ask yourself this question. Have you really made an improvement by continually choosing to have things your way? Really take a look at what you have done and how it was before. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 07:41, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- I noticed you created a page for Who's Your Daddy? Look, just because a single is released doesn't mean it's noteworthy enough to have it's own article on wikipedia, but if you are going to make one then make it sound encyclopedic and less opinionated, at least! TeePee-20.7 (talk) 08:18, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
- I mean dude unless you truly want to improve these articles, why don't you find something else to do. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 08:21, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

- Chico to be honest you've pissed me off with some of the shit you done. Like I admit because of you, we have made articles better like Gasolina is alot better from when we both first started editing that article. And in a way I'm thankful we have debated to improve articles, because that's what wikipedia is about. But yeh man you have to understand that this is an encyclopedia and the way you write articles and the tone they have, have to be encyclopedic in nature. So yeh what first got me irritated was you making major edits and marking them as minor when you are not even sure if the edit you are making is in fact factual! The second thing was as you mentioned, the edit battle we were in over chronology. Every time I made an edit to make the article correct you would revert my edit or if some random had made an edit inbetween you would mark it as minor. And then I in return did the exact same thing so you could feel how I felt when your effort and time to make the article right gets changed entirely and marked as minor. So then when you continued to do it I explained to you first on the template via the edit summary, and then on the respective pages. So then you aknowledged the fact it wasn't a single and turned it the infobox into a song format (which is an improvement by the way) but in doing so you made detrimental edits by removing the song from two categories. And now you have made the template look unprofesional by adding "other songs" to it. I mean a rule of thumb which seems to help me if you don't want to read all the guidlines to wikipedia, is looking at articles which have been rated highly (the better rating, the better article the article is to go by) and then basing your edits on that. I mean go and have a look at all the featured music artists' templates, I bet you will not find one which says "other songs". And about Who's Your Daddy, I'm not looking down on the article I just don't think it should have been made to begin with. I mean if this song was eventually released it did not even chart and Daddy Yankee or his manager or whoever decides on making the videos for his songs, did not feel this song was worth putting money and time into making a video for it. But it doesn't matter now because you made it so now you just need to improve it. Do this by changing the tone to be more encyclopedic and not having opinion sounding sentences in it "the female voice guest remains a mystery.". I'll give you sometime to try improving it because we're all here to improve wikipedia, and then I'll go over it and try improving it. So finally I'm glad you did take the time to respond to me and try and sort out the stuff between us, and yes I am taking it seriously because it is kind of a big deal as the whole world views wikipedia and we should take pride in trying to make the articles the most factual, well written and just all round best that we can make them.

[edit] Template/Mensaje de Estado
Aright we coo now, I'm glad we have gotten over our feud and understand where we're both coming from. Yeh I can understand how you might have thought it was an official single due to it's airplay but chico to be honest that kind of shit happens all the time. Like radio stations pick up albums and then they may choose to play a track that they like on their own even if it was not issued as an official single, and then if they recieve good feedback from the song they may add it to their playlist and this leads to it being heard by many listeners. This process can also influence the record comapnies choice on what song's to release as singles. That's why you may have noticed some songs that have been leaked or recieve massive airplay may become singles even if they were meant to be 2nd singles or even not set to be a single at all. But yeh with this song it was released as an advertisement for the album and was probably issued to many radio stations but it was only a promotional song for the album and this was confirmed with the promotional video they made for it. Now about mentioning it in the template while keeping the template professional looking is something which may be tricky as I havn't seen anything similar on any artists' templates. So I'm going to start by looking at the templates of other popular artists for a basis and see if I can come across something similar. You can also do this to if you want, I think I'm going to hit up people like 50 cent, Jay-Z and other popular urban artists as they're the closest we got for using as a basis. As they are mainstream, urban and they have good ratings. We can't use any other Reggaeton artist as a basis because Daddy Yankee is the best rated article we have on a reggaeton artist. So yeh sall gud now man & dw bout wat hapnd i was jus pissd coz it all built up u no, but newaiz yeh gasolina is heapz betr now n its gud u wana help keep doin it but jus xplain in tha edit summary if yo gon change an article round. Aright paz fuera! TeePee-20.7 (talk) 17:18, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

- Hmmmm, so you added this userbox {{User WikiProject Reggaeton}} to your page and it didn't automatically add you? Aright well if you did then yeh edit your name into the list by going to the link I just sent you. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 17:44, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

- Okay so one thing I've noticed when looking through templates is that even for the most high profile artists there are many differences. So I was thinking how about we change it to Promotional songs or singles or even Promo songs or singles? What do you think? Let me know. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 11:33, 28 April 2008 (UTC)

- Yeh that's why I said songs too. Aright well just get back to me and let me know what you're thinking. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 02:25, 29 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] En Lo Claro
Congratulations man you did great on that article like 4 realz man now it's heapz good and before it was crap! So congratulations man I'm glad you took the time to make that article the way it is and I'm glad you're helping the Reggaeton community by helping improve it's articles. I don't need to touch a thing man it's very well done the way it is, you should be proud. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 05:27, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Chulin Culin Chunfly
Well it looks aright the way you've done it now so good work on creating it because it was his biggest hit and a pretty big hit in reggaeton too. And about Mensaje de Estado, I most definitely don't think we should take it off the template as it is notable enough to be included on his template and just because similar artists havn't been as inovative enough and released teaser songs like Daddy Yankee has doesn't mean he shouldn't have the song officially recognised on his template. I'm going to change it to promotional songs so if you have any problems with that let me know on my talk page. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 05:51, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
- Well if I can remember correctly you sourced it from a forum which goes against wikipedia policy. But I'm reverting it back anyway the guy who was having an edit war with you was just on a power trip. BTW are you positive on the spelling of this song? I never brought the single and I'm not completey sure how you spell it. I've seen it spelt as Chulin Culin Cunflai in various occasions and many people aren't sure on how you spell it.TeePee-20.7 (talk) 05:47, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
- Yeh don't worry like I said before that guys tripping and if he continues and we get a 4th party invovled I don't think he'll have things his way for much longer. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 15:04, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Voltio (album)
Goodwork chico you fixed up that article quite a bit, but you need to watch how you write articles because all your articles sound opinionated and not encyclopedic in tone. Try not to use weasel words and look at other popular articles related to the one your fixing or creating and base your edits on that. I fixed it up a bit to make it sound more encyclopedic so remember just keep it encyclopedic, but yeh goodwork you really are helping the reggaeton community! Paz Fuera. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 17:18, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Give it 2 me
Oh okay well I don't usually get invovled in any articles apart from Reggaeton but yeh I just had a quick look and it looks aright. But don't worry there's plenty of people who will be keeping an eye on anything madonna related, I mean she's one of the best selling artists worldwide. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 04:07, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Talento de Barrio
I noticed your edits to the soundtrack and you just got to remember not to take ownership of articles. You removed all those tracks from the article because they don't have sources, but honestly chico neitha do the ones you kept! If someone wanted to debate this with you, then they would win because none of the tracks provide sources. But anyway I won't change it from your edit but you just need to make sure you don't have that ownership mentality because it goes against you. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 08:16, 8 May 2008 (UTC)
- No Worries man, I'm just looking out for you and letting you know some of the problems most editors face when first starting. But yeh even though I'm 100% positive Somos de Calle will be on it and about 99% sure solido is going to be on it, ideally even these two tracks should have references. So yeh see if you can find sources for all of them. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 01:55, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Arcangel y De La Ghetto
Aright coo I'll keep an eye on them and fix any minor mistakes, but you can do the major editing because I personally don't have a great interest in Arcangel. TeePee-20.7 (talk) 01:58, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
[edit] WikiCookie
Just stopping by with wikicookies for those editors who started new articles today. --Rosiestep (talk) 07:21, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
