WP:NSONGS

Hello. I see that you have removed the redirects from a song by Beatsteaks, like the one at Jane Became Insane. You should make yourself familiar with WP:NSONGS because it is common practice to redirect songs that are not notable to the artist or album. The song articles that you have created are not particularly notable and they should remain redirected to the artist. I will be replacing the redirects. If you have concerns about this, let's have a two-way conversation here before removing the redirects again. Thanks. -- Mufka ^{(u) (t) (c)} 15:37, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Ok. So why can be here other German songs, which I think you couldn't know, and nobody did redirect for it? --Heitinga (talk) 15:40, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

Can you point one out? Could be that no one who knows the rules has noticed it. I may not reply right away, because I have to go, but I won't forget to come back to this with you. -- Mufka ^{(u) (t) (c)} 15:45, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

I think that rules are really cruel, because in this case can be here only songs from commercial "stars". Ok my examples: Tanzverbot (Schill to Hell), Pogo Dancing, November (song), OK (Farin Urlaub song), Saft (song) and more more...But I know why are this songs here. Because if you or no matter who live in country, in that case Germany, you know this songs and are important for this people. But unfortunately, rules...--Heitinga (talk) 15:54, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

It does appear that all of the songs you listed should be redirected. You shouldn't get discouraged. If you disagree with a policy, you can make a comment on the talk page of the policy. Everything is determined by consensus, and consensus can change. Go ahead and raise your concern at Wikipedia talk:Notability (music). -- Mufka ^{(u) (t) (c)} 00:24, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

I cannot do it, because I don't have so good English as I wish, so I must have settle for with digestion rules. But I'm really sorry for it. --Heitinga (talk) 15:32, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

You shouldn't get discouraged from contributing here. But I understand that you can only do what your comfortable doing. -- Mufka ^{(u) (t) (c)} 15:41, 13 February 2009 (UTC)

Your account will be renamed

Hello,

The developer team at Wikimedia is making some changes to how accounts work, as part of our on-going efforts to provide new and better tools for our users like cross-wiki notifications. These changes will mean you have the same account name everywhere. This will let us give you new features that will help you edit and discuss better, and allow more flexible user permissions for tools. One of the side-effects of this is that user accounts will now have to be unique across all 900 Wikimedia wikis. See the announcement for more information.

Unfortunately, your account clashes with another account also called Heitinga. To make sure that both of you can use all Wikimedia projects in future, we have reserved the name Heitinga~enwiki that only you will have. If you like it, you don't have to do anything. If you do not like it, you can pick out a different name. If you think you might own all of the accounts with this name and this message is in error, please visit Special:MergeAccount to check and attach all of your accounts to prevent them from being renamed.

Your account will still work as before, and you will be credited for all your edits made so far, but you will have to use the new account name when you log in.

Sorry for the inconvenience.

Yours,
Keegan Peterzell
Community Liaison, Wikimedia Foundation

ArbCom elections are now open!

Hi,
You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
