Chart performance

[edit]

The chart performance section should discussion the performance of the EP on the charts, not individual songs, especially since there are articles for each of the songs that do that already. The table neatly summarizes the chart peaks for each song, more detailed info is provided in the song articles.--StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 19:04, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Apparently, the EP was unsuccessful on the charts. – DivaKnockouts (talk) 20:03, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Looking at the articles of the individual songs, it doesn't even appear that any of them were originally from this album and the success of those songs has nothing to do with this album or being on this album, so putting the chart performance of the songs in this article seems inappropriate. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 21:40, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Correct, none of the songs are originally from this EP, though like any other compilation album that has previously released content to some extent provides chart performance of the songs. — DivaKnockouts (talk) 21:46, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I don't find that being typical of compilation album articles, unless it has new songs included that charted. Reading this again, it really is a poor article, there is only one statement about the EP itself: "On November 16, 2006, Univision Records released a set of EPs of the same name e5 by artist of its label." The sources only seem to validate the songs not this disc. This set doesn't appear to pass notability requirements. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 21:53, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Just to notify you, if you did not notice, this article has been under construction for the pass couple of days. There are many compilation/best of albums that only include previously release content. Not providing information about the songs included on an album takes away from the article itself. — DivaKnockouts (talk) 22:16, 20 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Of course best of albums only include previously released content, but articles on those are not going to give detailed info about the composition and the chart performance of those songs if they were not written for the album or whose chart success was specifically as a release from that album. There might be a summary of their chart performance because it can indicate why those songs were selected for the compilation, but that should be sourced as it relates to the album. Otherwise, an artist might have multiple "best of" albums at some point and all you would have to do is copy and paste info from the song articles to fluff up the album article. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 00:15, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
What do you propose we do then? — DivaKnockouts (talk) 02:17, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
With the album receiving little to no coverage in reliable sources, it should probably just be redirected to Ivy Queen discography then add the release date for it on that page. --StarcheerspeaksnewslostwarsTalk to me 17:35, 21 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
