Your rollback request[edit]

Hello Devin, I have granted rollback rights to your account in accordance with your request. Please be aware that rollback should be used to revert vandalism/spam/blatantly unconstructive edits, and that using it to revert anything else (such as by revert-warring or reverting edits you disagree with) can lead to it being removed from your account...sometimes without any warning, depending on the admin who becomes aware of any misuse. If you think an edit should require a reason for reverting, then don't use rollback and instead, use a manual edit summary. For practice, you may wish to see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback. Good luck. Acalamari 11:26, 6 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

File:Jeffree_Star_Blush.png[edit]

I have tagged File:Jeffree_Star_Blush.png as {{orphaned fairuse}}. In order for the image to be kept at Wikipedia, it must be included in at least one article. Otherwise, it will be deleted in seven days. Melesse (talk) 12:32, 14 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Disambiguation link notification[edit]

Hi. When you recently edited The Maine (band), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Augustana (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

RE: Thank you[edit]

I'll try to find what's wrong. Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 22:30, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes they should, just with {{WikiProject Concert Tours}}, and they will be automatically assessed. Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions.
On a side note, shouln't the categories be Category:Concert Tours articles by quality rather than Category:Concert tour articles by quality? Tbhotch. Grammatically incorrect? Correct it! See terms and conditions. 22:42, 23 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Deleting categories[edit]

Does anyone out there know how to tag multiple articles for deletion a quick and painless way? I want to delete every category from Category:Record Labels articles by quality and Category:Record label articles by quality and then deleting Category:Record Labels articles by quality so that I can take the categories Category:X-Class record labels articles (X being A, GA, B, C, Stub, etc) and then adding the tag, Category:Record label articles by quality to each. I sure hope this makes sense. Thanks if you understand. Devin Davis (talk) 06:47, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Categories for discussion; nominate and discuss there. Dru of Id (talk) 07:35, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Prom Night! (Jeffree Star song)[edit]

Without some reliable information indicating this song has either charted or was covered by a notable band Prom Night! (Jeffree Star song) doesn't meet WP:NSONGS and will be redirected to the album article per convention.

  1. REDIRECT Target page name
So it has to have song charts to just for it to be notable? That's what I'm getting at. Devin Davis (talk) 03:31, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Please take a look at WP:NSONGS
I did and I read it. I also asked you a question, which you didn't answer. The article has to have musical charts just for it to become notable? According to this quote: "...articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album," I know that it will grow beyond a stub once more information comes out. I also know that the article is about a song, but could WP:NALBUMS under Unreleased material be apart of it too? It seems like all that I need to add it reliable, secondary sources. Devin Davis (talk) 04:06, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
What do you base your belief that it will grow on? And ease up on the "you didn't answer" talk, I'm trying to help here.--RadioFan (talk) 04:13, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I could talk about the music video, like on most songs that have a music video do, when it comes out. I could add who took the picture for the album cover (Which I just found out). And I could add critiques and chart performances, if there is any. I don't really know what else goes into a song/single article. Devin Davis (talk) 04:26, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Establishing the notability of a song is much more difficult than an album. Unfortunately none of the items you mention really do it. You can create a section in the album's article for coverage of the song but please make sure you reference anything there with reliable sources--RadioFan (talk) 14:38, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Please stop reverting this article. There is no indication that it meets notability guidelines.--RadioFan (talk) 21:48, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's weird how I've also wrote other song/single articles and I haven't but this much effort into them. I've only had first hand sources and very few reliable sources and they haven't been flagged for anything. One was even marked as a start article. But speaking of this article, I only have one reliable source, which is MySpace and it wasn't written by the artist himself. Since there's currently not enough information on the single/song, how can I add reliable sources instead of first hand? I know that Billboard isn't talking about it nor any other site. I think that there will be more information once the music video and song come out and therefore more reliable sources.
I will revert the article, but place <! -- --> around the whole thing. I think it has the potential on becoming a reliable article. Devin Davis (talk) 21:59, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This really needs to be discussed somewhere other editors can participate if they choose. I've moved the discussion to the album's talk page.
