Music video

The music video for "Lips Are Movin" was recently released, but there is not a section in the article that talks about the video. Will someone please add a section that talks about the music video? Paul Badillo (talk) 17:50, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

Missing a source

This statement is missing a source: "The clip was the first-ever music video to be created entirely by social influencers."--Esprit15d • talkcontribs 00:50, 31 December 2014 (UTC)

Meghan Trainor made a new “All About That Bass”; “Lips Are Movin”

New Spanish chart

Please check the new Top 100 Singles chart at Promusicae.org to put the right peak position. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.55.124.96 (talk) 21:54, 19 January 2015 (UTC)

Video

At this time, it seems to me that content on the video has passed the undue weight threshold. Suggest cutting it down considerably and creating a new article from the content rather than bloating this article with it. -- WV 17:23, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

@Winkelvi: Are you suggesting Lips Are Movin (Music video)'s creation? MaRAno FAN 17:28, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
I agree; if enough information is founded, its own article could be created. However, placing in mass amount of detail, especially in the opening lead, is uncalled upon. livelikemusic my talk page! 17:28, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
No. The section is a lot smaller than Single Ladies (Put a Ring on It)#Music video and Diamonds (Rihanna song)#Music video. It doesn't warrant it's own article yet. MaRAno FAN 17:34, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
It matters not what other articles look like if those articles are examples of bloat and undue weight, as well. As it is, I think there needs to be an article on the video (creating an article on a notable subject is a positive, not a negative) after removing much of the bloat and excessive detail along with the trivia in the video section. This article is about the song, not the video. -- WV 18:19, 20 January 2015 (UTC)
Both the examples listed above are FAs and certainly not UNDUE. MaRAno FAN 18:29, 20 January 2015 (UTC)

For reasons that remain unclear to me, MaranoFan has started an article on the video after protesting such an article. In light of this, the huge, undue weight-laden section on the video in this article is no longer necessary. I have trimmed it down considerably and left the salient points. -- WV 16:59, 21 January 2015 (UTC)

Opening para wording

I have made some wording changes to the lead, they were reverted. While I did restore those wording changes, I'm more than willing to discuss why the changes would be seen as detrimental to the article. -- WV 22:29, 1 May 2015 (UTC)

Your "changes" introduced deliberate factual errors to the article, which are allowed to be reverted more than 3 times. You wrote that "has performed" falls in the past tense but not just "performed", what? You said that the song reached three positions on the Hot 100, each respectively, what? You added strange wording which was ambiguous and the wording in earlier revisions was more preferable. Yet I am willing to discuss. All About That Bass (A word?? / Stalking not allowed...) 02:43, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
I reworded, I didn't change the statistics and cited facts. There was nothing strange about the wording. At all. But hey, if you want juvenile prose rather than something that looks like a grownup wrote it, knock yourself out. -- WV 07:10, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
Good. :) Leave the "juvenile" prose as it is. All About That Bass (A word?? / Stalking not allowed...) 11:24, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Have decided that for the sake of the article, the encyclopedia, as well as the reader, the wording improvements should be restored. The wording improvements do not change the stats regarding the song/album rankings. If there are issues with the rankings as presented currently, then let's work on that. The wording, however, does not change what was already present prior to the prose improvements. -- WV 19:15, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Although, even despite your utter ignorance, what is good about your prose? It is messed up, doesn't flow well. And perhaps the biggest thing is what is so wrong with the prose I wrote that you keep adding yours? All About That Bass (A word?? / Stalking not allowed...) 20:45, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Point by point specifics would be helpful, rather than generalizations. Thanks. -- WV 21:25, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

OK! Here's what's going to happen, I am not going to let your theory succeed. I am leaving your problematic edits in the article, when I send it to GA. That way, the reviewer will point out for you, what is wrong, and my the article won't be gotten unstable. HA! All About That Bass (A word?? / Stalking not allowed...) 05:40, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
It's not your article. -- WV 06:52, 3 May 2015 (UTC)

No apostrophe in article title?

It looks like the name of this song has an apostrophe at the end, but the article title does not match that format. Should it be moved? – Jonesey95 (talk) 17:54, 30 July 2020 (UTC)

Hi Jonesey95, the song title does not utilise an apostrophe on any digital retailers like Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube or Tidal. I'm not sure where you saw it.--NØ 09:38, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
Thanks for clarifying. There were apostrophes in the lead and in multiple places in the article. I have removed them, per the single artwork and the sourced linked above. – Jonesey95 (talk) 15:45, 31 July 2020 (UTC)
