Constant VandalismI'm gonna need you to put a semi-protection on both Trina discography and Mary J. Blige discography. Too many vandalism going on on those pages lately, those IP Vandals are up to no good Hometown Kid (talk) 20:01, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
Eric, as expected, this needs protection for atleast 3 weeks untill the whole Grammy hoopla is over. — Legolas (talk2me) 17:26, 9 February 2011 (UTC)
Worth It (Wanessa Song)Take a look at Worth It (Wanessa Song). I'm inclined to semi-protect it, but people would probably scream WP:INVOLVED at me. So far as I can tell, none of the claimed charts are valid, and it would be good to have that double-checked at the very least.—Kww(talk) 20:09, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
Re: number-one alternative songs of blah blah blahWow! My bad, I did that on the Rock Songs article too, plus I accidentally put the same date on there 3 times by mistake, fixed it now! And thanks for catching that! The Man Who Needs No Introduction! (talk) 04:23, 23 February 2011 (UTC) Editing conflict involving annual R&B charts articlesI noticed that you deleted the chart comparison sections. The reason those were there is to enhance the article from just being a boring chronological list. In addition, they were to give a clear idea of which particular songs also charted at #1 on other Billboard related charts per se the crossover detail. I feel it is neccessary that they are there. The Billboard chart books (i.e. Book of Top 40 R&B and Hip-Hop Hits) make indications of this as well; example, at the end of the book on the R&b chart calendar there is a star showing which ones crossed over to #1 on the Hot 100 chart. Think about it now. GETONERD84 (talk) 15:31, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
Hi eo, I very much want you to join this project, if you would, and also we need you as you'd be the only admin we have in it, and as you very much know this material and are understanding in this subject matter. You've even corrected me on occasion of mistakes (like on "High Energy"). You'd be a great asset as we'd also have a person (you) who not only knows about all of this, but is an admin (no other admins but you edit this regularly) who can help us protect these articles! PLEASE join this project Eric, we really need you!!! Thanks! Best, --Discographer (talk) 13:33, 27 February 2011 (UTC) Wiz Khalifa discographyCan you please put a semi-protection on that also. The pesky annoying IP Users keep reverting my edits on the US certification for "Black and Yellow", replacing gold with "2x Platinum" and are not obeying the source I provided. It's been certified Gold so far and already has over a two million digital downloads. It should be certified double platinum by now but it's not yet and that's what these IP Vandals aren't getting, and I've been checking the source daily, it's not yet certified double platinum.

RE: Wiz Khalifa discographyHello, I do not know how to communicate through Wikipedia and somehow I was linked to your page so that's the reason for the so-called, "vandalism." I have no intention of doing such just trying to resolve this semi-protected lock on the Wiz Khalifa discography page when I have in fact contributed a lot as compared to others. My next 2 edits would be: |"Young, Wild & Free" |Snoop Dogg featuring Wiz Khalifa |High School & *2011: The Green Carpet Tour P.S. I only edited the "Gold" certification for the single due to reading a direct tweet from the artist's personal Twitter account; http://www.hiphopweekly.com/100303-newsite/wp-content/uploads/2011/02/Fullscreen-capture-242011-21728-PM.bmp.jpg Thank you, EBonanni90 (talk) 20:50, 1 March 2011 (UTC) Trina discographyLOL this guy just doesn't learn he's still vandalizing the page with the same old crap.

Shame Shame ShameHi, just got my own access to billboard.biz, so re-checking all the information as for CCP. Found also that "Shame Shame Shame" chart position we have been discussing months ago. The title charted on the Billboard's Global Dance Tracks...

Expected more. What's Love Got to Do with It?Hi, I merged this song because it clearly said it's a "remake" - been in an edit war of sorts since, even though I made clear my reasons for merging - same song different version. I did post my reasoning on an edit and the editor's talkpage. Rather than reverting again, can you cast you eye over the the two articles? One of the relevant edits is which substantiates my claim that the article said "remake" is here. The editor has since written that the original song is sampled (an edit he made while "undoing" my merges. Don't mind if you don't agree with me, just like to see an end of the conflicting edits.

An IP user has been persistently (and inaccurately) removing the pop genre in a few Jennifer Lopez pages (namely If You Had My Love, Feelin' So Good, Ain't It Funny, Jenny from the Block, All I Have (song), Baby I Love U!, Get Right, This Is Me... Then and Rebirth (Jennifer Lopez album)). The problem is, the IP address changed each time they would edit the pages (some of those being 93.149.195.35 (talk · contribs), 93.149.195.38 (talk · contribs), 93.149.194.222 (talk · contribs), 93.149.194.139 (talk · contribs) and most recently, 93.150.229.252 (talk · contribs)). I've warned them all, but since they show no sign of stopping, I believe it'd be a pain in the ass to block them everytime a new IP address shows up. Do you think you could have the aforementioned articles protected for a while? Any other ideas will be appreciated. SnapSnap 01:23, 20 March 2011 (UTC)
An opinion please?hello! seems like it's been a long time since i've asked for your advice! could you take a look at the Adele discography, something has cropped up a few times regarding what certifications are shown in the tables. there's a discussion on the talkpage, and also at WP:DISCOGSTYLE but it always seems to be just the 2 of us, and it needs more opinions. could you offer your two cents? thanks. Mister sparky (talk) 16:24, 20 March 2011 (UTC) I'm approaching 3RR on this one. Take a look and see if you think semi-protection is warranted.

Thank you! ℥nding·start 14:35, 27 March 2011 (UTC) Advice neededA problem has cropped up, and I need some advice on how to go with it. A while ago, WP:Record charts (which incorporates WP:GOODCHARTS and WP:BADCHARTS) got moved to Wikipedia:Manual of Style (record charts). That's causing some trouble, with some editors claiming that since it is now an MOS page, it can't possibly be viewed as a guideline related to article content (and, in an even more bizarre thought process, that it only can apply to the tables of charts, not other text relating to charts). Take a look at this example: like I say in the discussion, I can see the argument that it's a sufficiently special case to override the guideline, but I still find the argument that the guideline doesn't apply at all to be surreal. In a sense, they have a point: MOS pages don't usually contain anything related to source reliability, notability, or anything like that: they are strictly where to put hyphens, dashes, and the like. WP:GOODCHARTS and WP:BADCHARTS don't belong in that kind of guideline: they've got nothing to do with formatting, and everything to do with source reliability and notability. I can easily split the thing up, probably by making WP:GOODCHARTS, WP:BADCHARTS, and WP:USCHARTS independent guidelines, and focusing Wikipedia:Manual of Style (record charts) strictly on the table formats. I'm worried that I would be viewed as a biased editor, and wind up with a backlash that made all three lose credibility. Do you think I'm being paranoid? Do WP:GOODCHARTS and WP:BADCHARTS have enough buy-in by enough editors that I can put them someplace else and maintain them as guidelines? Or am I just better off hoping that this kind of fight never shows up again? I'll take this to the guideline talk page before doing anything, but just wanted to have a slightly quieter discussion here before I do anything at all.—Kww(talk) 00:24, 29 March 2011 (UTC)
Take a look at User:Kww/recordcharts (which would go back at WP:Record charts) and User:Kww/MOS (which would replace Wikipedia:Manual of Style (record charts)).—Kww(talk) 20:36, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

This is getting weirdYou removed an image again saying that it violates WP:FU. Did You actually look at the image? How did You come to the conclusion that this is a Fair use image? Did You ever check the image's licensing? Even after being reverted and given notice You still claimed it as a fair use image. So do You always revert without verifying the factuality of Your action? As an admin I would have expected more diligence. Please explain. feydey (talk) 09:31, 6 April 2011 (UTC)
←I removed it for the reasons below.
There is just no reason for it to be displayed, especially so large, in a discography list. No other discographies have this, and a huge Yes image does not enhance the discography page. Please also stop putting the image here on my Talk Page. - eo (talk) 12:36, 6 April 2011 (UTC)

Only two reference is used to justify them, but they neither have any issue date, nor any publication date. Furthermore, I have access to Billboard and can say that WW tour is present in 10 different issues. So that whole table fails WP:OR." The problem is that I trusted that someone had added them with correct references and I don't have access to Billboard.bz articles or a subscription to the magazine. So, I don't know how to fix any of this. Legolas offered to help, but his condition limits him right now. He said you had access to the charts.
