Hey Mayast. Despite the fact that the US release appears to be postponed/cancelled, it was still sent to radio in Italy, and thus is a single in that country. I Care (Beyoncé Knowles song) was also released only in Italy. — Status (talk · contribs) 21:49, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-12-15T21:49:00.000Z","author":"Status","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Status-2013-12-15T21:49:00.000Z-Blow_(Beyonc\u00e9_Knowles_song)","replies":["c-Mayast-2013-12-15T22:03:00.000Z-Status-2013-12-15T21:49:00.000Z"]}}-->

@Status: Hi. Isn't it a promotional single, though? I checked that it wasn't released in Italy on its own — the song is still only available as a part of the album on Italian iTunes. As you might know, there are some Contributors who wouldn't allow for it to be treated as a regular single ;) Mayast (talk) 22:03, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-12-15T22:03:00.000Z","author":"Mayast","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Mayast-2013-12-15T22:03:00.000Z-Status-2013-12-15T21:49:00.000Z","replies":["c-Status-2013-12-15T22:23:00.000Z-Mayast-2013-12-15T22:03:00.000Z"]}}-->

It's a radio-only single, of course. Promotional singles aren't sent to radio; they are distributed to places such as clubs, for example. There's a couple of editors I can think of that wouldn't like it. I guess they can learn to deal with it. Beyonce is well-known for having many radio only singles, such as "Ego", "Party", "End of Time", "I Care". — Status (talk · contribs) 22:23, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-12-15T22:23:00.000Z","author":"Status","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Status-2013-12-15T22:23:00.000Z-Mayast-2013-12-15T22:03:00.000Z","replies":["c-Mayast-2013-12-15T22:32:00.000Z-Status-2013-12-15T22:23:00.000Z"]}}-->

@Status: Thanks for the explanation, I wasn't sure what's the difference between eg. "I Care" and "1+1". And I had some doubts about two songs from the new Switchfoot album ("Who We Are" and "Love Alone Is Worth the Fight"), which were included on the Fading West EP and released on the same day to two different radio formats. They have both charted on various Billboard charts, but as they weren't released separately onto iTunes, I wasn't sure if they should be listed as singles or promo singles. Now I can sleep peacefully ;) — Mayast (talk) 22:32, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-12-15T22:32:00.000Z","author":"Mayast","type":"comment","level":4,"id":"c-Mayast-2013-12-15T22:32:00.000Z-Status-2013-12-15T22:23:00.000Z","replies":["c-Status-2013-12-15T22:44:00.000Z-Mayast-2013-12-15T22:32:00.000Z"]}}-->

Well, for "1+1", the song was given away for free when people pre-ordered 4. So that would classify as a promotional single. If it was sent to radio, it would be another story. Yes, yes you can. — Status (talk · contribs) 22:44, 15 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-12-15T22:44:00.000Z","author":"Status","type":"comment","level":5,"id":"c-Status-2013-12-15T22:44:00.000Z-Mayast-2013-12-15T22:32:00.000Z","replies":["c-Mayast-2013-12-15T22:49:00.000Z-Status-2013-12-15T22:44:00.000Z"]}}-->

@Mayast:Hi Mayast,

We would like to advocate for MusicBlvd.com, a competitor to MetroLyrics, both licensed lyrics providers. We are trying to get Wikipedia to verify that MusicBlvd.com is indeed compliant with copyright and and lyric licensing laws.

You can see MusicBlvd's response here - Dear Wikipedia, We Love Musicians More than Lawyers.

This is in response to this Wikipedia thread by other editors https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Songs#Music_Blvd_lyrics_Links

MusicBlvd.com should be added under the "Lyrics and Video" section in the Wikipedia page Wikipedia:WikiProject Songs

Can you please help us in setting the record straight?

Thanks

Actually, I would not be surprised if some of the other tracks should now have articles of their own. Between track-by-track reviews, recording details and music video info, I bet there is enough information for most of the songs. Not to mention, most of them are likely to chart based on album sales alone. --Another Believer _(Talk) 19:47, 27 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2013-12-27T19:47:00.000Z","author":"Another Believer","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-Another_Believer-2013-12-27T19:47:00.000Z-Mayast-2013-12-27T19:25:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hi, JennKR :) I'm not sure I'm the best person for this, as I haven't participated in any GA/FA nominations yet, and I'm not sure what to look for in an article – if you have a look at my user page, the farthest I have ever got with any of my articles is C-class (but I've only been a really active contributor for six months now).

Do you know if "Haunted" has charted at all? I have been working on an expansion of the article, which was redirected back to the album article. Personally, I think there is enough info for a shorter, standalone article, but chart placement would certainly help establish notability. --Another Believer _(Talk) 22:41, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-01-03T22:41:00.000Z","author":"Another Believer","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-Another_Believer-2014-01-03T22:41:00.000Z-\"Haunted\"","replies":["c-Mayast-2014-01-03T23:48:00.000Z-Another_Believer-2014-01-03T22:41:00.000Z"]}}-->

Hi. Personally, I agree with the decision to redirect that article for now. Per WP:NSONG, charting is only one of the factors suggesting that a song may be notable – it should still meet the more important criteria for notability, like being the subject of non-trivial published works (with the exception of album reviews and articles about the record). So I think the best thing to prove the song's notability would be to look for some articles about "Ghost" and "Haunted" (and not the album), their videos, etc. In my opinion, not every single must have its own article, let alone every song from an album, no matter how popular the artist is. BUT I'm keeping my fingers crossed for finding something to prove that "Haunted" is in fact notable, and if I come across any chart positions for it, I will definitely add them and/or try to revert that redirect.

Great, thanks! I just saw that you have been keeping up with chart stats, so wondered if you had seen any other tracks from the albums on the charts.

Yes, I'm trying to keep an eye on some of the charts :) For example, I wasn't planning to work on "Partition" any time soon (if ever), but I saw that it charted, and I decided to expand it a little. When I see any 'new' song from the album charting, I'll try to work on it too, or at least let you guys know on the album talk page, if I don't have time to do that.

Dear fellow I appreciate your recent edits on ostium(sponges). You removed information related to cockroaches. Dear fellow, I created this article and as a person having a fair knowledge about sponges I initially believed that term ostium is only used to denote the pores present in sponges but after a massive internet search I found that the lateral openings in the primitive heart of cockroaches are also commonly called ostia.

I saw and appreciated this. On reflection and reading some archived discussions I do not think it is good practice to use Amazon or ITunes as references.

@John: The problem is, we should try to provide sources for all the bits of information that we add to articles. Doesn't matter if it's an entire section discussing critical reception of an album, or just its year of release, as with this discography. I don't feel comfortable with adding something unsourced. Moreover, from my experience such content is very likely to be removed by other editors as original research (or, most often, with an edit summary saying "unsourced").
I mostly edit articles associated with WikiProjects Albums, Songs and Discographies, and as I mentioned in my edit summary, links to iTunes, Amazon or other digital retailers are commonly used there to confirm release dates (and sometimes track listing) for albums and singles. Even in FA-class articles, like 4 (Beyoncé album)#Release history, Maya (M.I.A. album), Good Girl Gone Bad: Reloaded. There is also a never-ending war between groups of editors who have different definitions of a single. For some, a fact that music websites call a particular song "a single" or that it was released to radio is enough; others need to see that the single was released physically or digitally (and consensus seems to be that there had to be a physical/digital release, or a radio release in the United States). Usually, a link to iTunes/Amazon is the only way to prove the release. Having a press release from the record label with release dates (like with the digital release of Beyoncé) would be a luxury, unfortunately that doesn't happen very often. — Mayast (talk) 10:10, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-06-09T10:10:00.000Z","author":"Mayast","type":"comment","level":2,"id":"c-Mayast-2014-06-09T10:10:00.000Z-John-2014-06-09T08:22:00.000Z","replies":["c-John-2014-06-09T10:29:00.000Z-Mayast-2014-06-09T10:10:00.000Z"]}}-->

I take your points. When this has been discussed centrally, the usual consensus is that if something is only sourceable to Amazon (or the like), it isn't worth including. If it is worthy of mention, it will have appeared in proper, neutral third-party sources. --John (talk) 10:29, 9 June 2014 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2014-06-09T10:29:00.000Z","author":"John","type":"comment","level":3,"id":"c-John-2014-06-09T10:29:00.000Z-Mayast-2014-06-09T10:10:00.000Z","replies":[]}}-->

Hello, apologies for the late reply/activity, I've been travelling recently so I haven't been as active as I would like. The "***Flawless" article is well-written and concise which I like a lot. What I think it could benefit from is more information on the song's development, particularly information on how it existed as "Bow Down/I Been On" and how this was received. In Critical reception, distinguish between the song's reception as "Bow Down/I Been On" in March 2013 and then as "***Flawless" in December 2013. The essential point is that "Bow Down/I Been On" was received well musically, it's production was harsh, abrasive and experimental (not like anything Beyoncé had ever done), but many were confused by its lyrics when considering Beyoncé's songs "Single Ladies", "Irreplaceable" and many Destiny's Child songs ("Girl", "Independent Women") to be pro-women. "***Flawless" attempts to explain the nature of these lyrics (being pro-woman, but not anti-man as Wood of The Guardian says), but, as with the general message of Beyoncé, it serves as the most significant and explicit assertion of her feminist beliefs. Note that in the Critical reception section, it is much better to use several sources and paraphrase a summary of what the reviewer is saying, longer quotes are not as good. If you could make these changes, I think it would be definitely ready. I would also be happy to look over it before you nominate it.

Thank you so much for reviewing the Ritualwell article that I created. I appreciate your contributions.

I'm still a relatively new Wikepedia editor. I've created 4 pages (one of which was not approved), and I've added updated to a number of other pages.

I really like the "My Contributions" section you have on your profile page. I'd like to set that up for myself. I have a few questions about doing this:

• Can you point me toward a page that has more information on doing this?
• How do you know if an article is "Start Class," "C-Class," "B-Class," etc.? Is there an editor's tutorial on this somewhere?
• Is there an automatic way you add articles to your Contributions list, or do you do it by hand?

Thanks again for your help!

@Elkaybklyn: Hi :) I'm glad you like that section. To answer your questions, I add all the pages myself as I create them. An "automatic" way to display all my articles is to follow this link: https://tools.wmflabs.org/sigma/created.py?name=Mayast&server=enwiki&ns=,,&redirects=none – you can access yours by going to 'User contributions', and then 'Articles created' at the bottom of the page.
There is no tutorial how to create a section like that, I came up with mine myself. Maybe you can look up my source code: [1], and if you have any technical questions I'll be happy to answer them if I can.
As for the classes, every article should have it's own talk page, where different WikiProjects, to which this particular article belongs, are listed. For example when you go to Talk:Ritualwell, you can see that I added the article to WikiProject Judaism and WikiProject Computing. Members of WikiProjects assess the articles that are within the scope of the WikiProjects, and add the "grade" to the WikiProject template on the talk page. For example, one of the members of WikiProject Albums assessed Fading West and gave it a : Talk:Fading West. Please note that different WikiProjects might have different criteria for the classes. Anyway, when an article I created is assessed (sometimes I assess them myself, trying to be objective), I add the icon for the class to my page.

Hi. The Wikipedia:WikiProject Europe/The 10,000 Challenge has recently started, based on the UK/Ireland Wikipedia:The 10,000 Challenge. The idea is not to record every minor edit, but to create a momentum to motivate editors to produce good content improvements and creations and inspire people to work on more countries than they might otherwise work on. There's also the possibility of establishing smaller country or regional challenges for places like Germany, Italy, the Benelux countries, Iberian Peninsula, Romania, Slovenia etc, much like Wikipedia:The 1000 Challenge (Nordic). For this to really work we need diversity and exciting content and editors from a broad range of countries regularly contributing. If you would like to see masses of articles being improved for Europe and your specialist country like Wikipedia:WikiProject Africa/The Africa Destubathon, sign up today and once the challenge starts a contest can be organized. This is a way we can target every country of Europe, and steadily vastly improve the encyclopedia. We need numbers to make this work so consider signing up as a participant and also sign under any country sub challenge on the page that you might contribute to! Thank you. --MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:08, 7 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]__DTELLIPSISBUTTON__{"threadItem":{"timestamp":"2016-11-07T21:08:00.000Z","author":"MediaWiki message delivery","type":"comment","level":1,"id":"c-MediaWiki_message_delivery-2016-11-07T21:08:00.000Z-Europe_10,000_Challenge_invite","replies":[]}}-->

Hi Mayast,

In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying.

A tag has been placed on Category:Romanian independent record labels requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section C1 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the category has been empty for seven days or more and is not a disambiguation category, a category redirect, a featured topics category, under discussion at Categories for discussion, or a project category that by its nature may become empty on occasion.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Liz ^{Read!

Hello Mayast. I am just letting you know that I declined the speedy deletion of What Now (band), a page you tagged for speedy deletion, because of the following concern: previous revisions contain claims of significance, such as having their album reviewed in Rolling Stone and having their music featured on CSI. That and being signed to a notable label is sufficient to pass A7. Use AFD instead. Thank you.
