Welcome!
Welcome to Wikipedia, MusicGeek101! I am Ser Amantio di Nicolao and have been editing Wikipedia for quite some time. Thank you for your contributions. I just wanted to say hi and welcome you to Wikipedia!

Thank you for providing a reference. Consider having a look at WP:CITE for formatting help. I'm going to apply a template to it; you'll see how much better that looks. Drmies (talk) 19:59, 6 March 2011 (UTC)
S&M
Just in response: the song remains a #1 for Brit; the reason she is no longer credited is because the remix no longer accounted for a significant portion of sales for the song. It doesn't discount the fact that her remix drove the single to #1 and that Billboard credited her for it, and that is what the article portrays in the end--the song and the artist(s) credited at the time of the chart peak. --Wikipeep 494 (talk) 20:45, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
- Echoing the statement above - you made these incorrect edits to List of Hot 100 number-one singles of 2011 (U.S.) last week also. Please read the source link that is on the page, which explains that the song is Spears's fifth number-one. An additional source which links directly to the April 30 chart has been added. ALL versions of a song are combined when the charts are tabulated. Please stop removing the correct artist credit. Thanks. - eo (talk) 21:42, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

2020 Summer Olympics
Do you fancy replying to my rationale for my changes at Talk:2020 Summer Olympics, rather than just reverting them? I though the point of this website was that we discussed if we disagreed on things? --Pretty Green (talk) 08:15, 13 September 2011 (UTC)
Its more organized the way it was before, that why I reverted it. Its easier to view from the way I see it.
(note: I included a section in the Talk section for the 2020 Summer Olympics. I explained my reasons there. Feel free to discuss in that section on the Talk page)
The article Buenos Aires bid for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- not necessary as all the information will be listed on the bidding page
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.

September 2011
Welcome to Wikipedia. Please do not remove Articles for deletion notices from articles, or remove other people's comments in Articles for deletion debates, as you did with Buenos Aires bid for the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics. Otherwise, it may be difficult to create consensus. If you oppose the deletion of an article, please comment at the respective page instead. Thank you. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 03:33, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
Please stop your disruptive editing. If you continue to remove Articles for deletion notices or comments from articles and Articles for deletion pages, you may be blocked from editing. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 04:30, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
- This cropped up on my Watchlist. Just to point out that MusicGeek101 is correct here and that these warning templates are unjustified. @Intoronto1125 - an article creator can oppose and remove a proposed deletion: to quote from the page "If anyone, including the article creator, removes a proposed deletion tag from an article, do not replace it". Once a proposed deletion is contested, you need to set up an articles for deletion discussion. --Pretty Green (talk) 09:51, 16 September 2011 (UTC)
The article Lillehammer bid for the 2016 Winter Youth Olympics has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Nomination of Lillehammer bid for the 2016 Winter Youth Olympics for deletion
A discussion is taking place as to whether the article Lillehammer bid for the 2016 Winter Youth Olympics is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.
The article will be discussed at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lillehammer bid for the 2016 Winter Youth Olympics until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on good quality evidence, and our policies and guidelines.
Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion template from the top of the article. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 02:01, 22 September 2011 (UTC)

Please see the discussion on the Avril Lavigne talk page regarding Lavigne's move to Epic Records. There has been some slight edit warring going on between multiple parties so discussion should be completed before editing of the record label continues.

2020 Olympic bids
Please refer to all previous articles London bid for the 2012 Summer Olympic and Paralympic Games; Paris bid for the 2012 Summer Olympics; Madrid bid for the 2016 Summer Olympics; Tokyo bid for the 2016 Summer Olympics; which are far more complete and tell me why the "See also" sections for the 2020 bid articles should be an exception. I am merely enforcing consistency established long ago. —Yk Yk Yk talk ~ contrib 20:27, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
Not everyone may see other links or the box down below. Not everyone is tech savy. Increasing options for users is the best path --MusicGeek101 (talk) 20:28, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

I have seen a lot of people using wikipedia and they have had a hard time finding things and following links. While many are very tech savvy, some simply want general knowledge. As a result I feel that one (and editor) must make it as easy as possible for viewers to navigate. --MusicGeek101 (talk) 20:33, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
- I hear you, but this is not something to be decided between the both of us. Consensus is always needed in Wikipedia and I strongly suggest you seek it before making mass changes. Per Wikipedia guideline (WP:SEEALSO), "As a general rule the See Also section should not repeat links which appear in the article's body or its navigation boxes." If you are reluctant, I will get the ball rolling for you at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Olympics. —Yk Yk Yk talk ~ contrib 20:39, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
Speedy deletion nomination of File:Baku 2020 logo.jpeg
A tag has been placed on File:Baku 2020 logo.jpeg requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section F9 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the image appears to be a blatant copyright infringement. For legal reasons, we cannot accept copyrighted images or text borrowed from other web sites or printed material, and as a consequence, your addition will most likely be deleted. Wikipedia takes copyright violations very seriously and persistent violators will be blocked from editing.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion". Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

File copyright problem with File:Baku 2020 logo.jpeg
Thank you for uploading File:Baku 2020 logo.jpeg. However, it currently is missing information on its copyright and licensing status. Wikipedia takes copyright very seriously. It may be deleted soon, unless we can verify that it has an acceptable license status and a verifiable source. Please add this information by editing the image description page. You may refer to the image use policy to learn what files you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. The page on copyright tags may help you to find the correct tag to use for your file. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please also check any other files you may have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thanks again for your cooperation. Ankit Maity Talk • contribs 16:18, 21 December 2011 (UTC)
Island def Jam article
Hi. I'm not sure if you're watching the Island Def Jam page, but I have replied to the discussion you initiated regarding the move back to the original name. Maybe it's time to start a Wikipedia:Requested moves? Or should we just be bold and go ahead with the page move? Imperatore (talk) 21:22, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
Yes, Its just that all the recent press releases I have seen have said Island Def Jam and that its website has not changed its name. --MusicGeek101 (talk) 21:32, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- Cool, I say we just be bold and go ahead with the move, since a requested moves discussion is unlikely to generate any new views, seeing as google news can't pull up any newer articles that address the company with Motown in the name. So I'll proceed to reverse the page move and do a quick sweep of the article body. Imperatore (talk)
- sounds good --MusicGeek101 (talk) 21:48, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- Nevermind, I forgot that requested moves are mandatory for reversions as only an admin can perform them. I will start the request. Imperatore (talk) 21:49, 11 January 2012 (UTC)
- sounds good --MusicGeek101 (talk) 21:48, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Sir Georg Solti and Pierre Boulez Grammy awards
I noticed that you are a frequent updater to this page: Grammy Award records.
You might not be responsible for this, but shouldn't Sir Georg Solti be the first name listed as the "Most Grammy Awards won by a male artist"? Also, according to the Recording Academy's past winners search, Pierre Boulez has won 26 awards. This would place him alone as the the third individual in the "Most Grammys won" table and alone in second place (behind Solti) in the "Most Grammy Awards won by a male artist" table. Frank Villella (talk) 18:01, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for brining that to my attention. I have been somewhat torn by that because solti being part of the classical community he has had done so much work in different capacities. When I think "Male artist" I think of one who is the performing artist. He was won as an artist and conductor. This complicates things on a few levels. I find that this page needs a lot of watching over and oversight mainly because these records can be complex matters. However, I will dig deeper on this issue. Actually, if there is a wikipedia editor with extensive knowledge of classical music, I would greatly appreciate the help on that front. For months I've been trying to figure out how to better incorporate classical music into this page. --MusicGeek101 (talk) 18:14, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
Indeed, but Boulez is also a member of the classical community and has won Grammy Awards in multiple capacities, as both conductor and a composer. Similarly, Alison Krauss has won as a performer, collaborator, and producer, so that's kind of the same thing, isn't it? BTW, I would be happy to answer any questions you have regarding classical music and can be reached here.Frank Villella (talk) 18:42, 13 February 2012 (UTC)
One thing I would be interested in doing on the Grammy Award records page would be to add a section for most Grammys won by a conductor. I was thinking of perhaps having something havinging the top five most honored conductors. That would be a start in making the page more inclusive with the classical community. --MusicGeek101 (talk) 16:30, 14 February 2012 (UTC)
Hey,
I was wondering why you undid the redirection of the Abuja and Russia bid that were speculated, but did not actually submit a bid to the IOC. I'm not really sure what potential use these pages could have, as the fact that they were interested in bidding, and that they didn't (and the reason why if you think its important) cannot just be included on the main page. This is the way that it is done on other bid pages, example 2020 Summer Olympics and 2022 Winter Olympics, not to mention the ones that have already been awarded. (It's especially confusing since you have been so diligently upkeeping the lot of them, but seem to be using two different practices). If anything the Youth Olympics are far less notable, and a potential bid would likely have almost zero coverage, where as a potential olympic bis, say Quebec City or even Ostersund, would have way more coverage (and probably way more coverage than an actual bid for the Youth Olympics too). I kept the redirects as a compromise, because I really don't think those are needed, let alone the page. Please let me know your thoughts, otherwise I do intend to bring the articles to AFD. Ravendrop 05:07, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
because it was a significantly discussed plan and things were arranged. The bids just did not get submitted. --MusicGeek101 (talk) 17:11, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
- I had a look and found absolutely no "significant" discussion on these plans. As such, I've taken them to AfD. The links are below. Ravendrop 21:58, 11 March 2012 (UTC)
2019 Pan American Games
Hi, would you be willing to organize the 2019 Pan American Games page like the 2018 Youth Olympics page is with all the bids? The bids are Miami, Bogota, Lima, Santiago, in San Juan, Puerto Rico and an unnamed city in Argentina. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 19:24, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
No problem, I just need sources to confirm that those are official bids. Is there an exact timeline for bidding set in place yet? --MusicGeek101 (talk) 20:59, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
- Most the sources I am reading are in Spanish with google translation. It looks like January 31, 2013 is the last official day to confirm bidding. Going by the 2015 bid process usually the interested cities declare their intention to bid during the PASO assembly the year of the Olympics. Intoronto1125TalkContributions 22:19, 7 March 2012 (UTC)
Updated the info. I'm going to wait to make pages for the bids until they are confirmed. As of today, potential bidders were mentioned. As bids are confirmed in the months ahead I will go ahead in putting together an "Official bids" section and then creating pages for the bids that are officially announced. --MusicGeek101 (talk) 01:34, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Kuala Lumpur 2024 Olympic Bid
Not sure if you saw it or not, but I did a pruning of the page and removed many entries that simply didn't deserve to be there. I've left my reasons on the talk page, but to summarize specifically for Kuala Lumpur, the referenced article does not say that Kuala Lumpur is bidding, or even planning to bid. It is merely some journalist's opinion that because Kuala Lumpur is hosting the convention that they might, perhaps bid for an Olympics, and that Olympics might, perhaps be 2024. It is simply just too speculative, and coming from someone with no power to create such a bid. If it was (like all the entries I've left on the page) an official with the power to promote/organize a bid (mayor, governor, president, NOC, etc.) or it was an announcement of the formation of an exploratory committee, then it would belong. At least one other editor agrees with me on this point. If you disagree, please take it to the talk page first before re-adding it into the article. Thanks. Ravendrop 21:18, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
- Rather than blindly re-adding information. Please discuss on the talk page (using an edit summary is not enough, especially when consensus appears to be against your edits) why you think it should be added. Also note that none of my arguments are that the references are outdated, but rather address aspects of what should be considered a reliable source versus random journalistic speculation.

Hey MusicGeek, you said that Jay-Z has 18 Grammys, not seventeen. I just cited the Grammy Award section of his awards list, and I counted 17. Can you verify that you are correct? Teammm talk
email 21:20, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
Go to the Grammy Award winners search on the Grammy Website. First search "Jay-Z", then search "Shawn Carter". That will give you fifteen. Then add three (which he just won) to that total and you have 18. --MusicGeek101 (talk) 04:46, 12 February 2013 (UTC)
- If you look here and here, yes you are correct that 18 results total show. But, for 2009 Best Rap Song - Run This Town, it is listed in results for both "Shawn Carter" and "Jay-Z". You just made an error because the same thing was listed twice. Jay-Z has 17 Grammy Awards. I hope I helped. Have a good day. Teammm talk

Please explain them why do you revert their edits. Posting warnings doesn't do in such cases. Materialscientist (talk) 05:26, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
I suggested using the talk page for Grammy Award records and that was ignored. I posed information on the Talk:Grammy Award records page that proves that what was stated on the page was accurate. I reverted those edits because they were wrong.--MusicGeek101 (talk) 05:29, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
- Thanks, they've got themselves blocked for 24 hours. Next time better type a message on the user talk instead of posting templated warnings, which are pointless in such cases. Cheers. Materialscientist (talk) 05:34, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
