Not all reviews use stars, and 10 reviews is enough per Wikipedia guidelines. --HELLØ ŦHERE 10:11, 29 August 2008 (UTC)Reply

Please read this: Template:Infobox Album#Professional reviews. If you continue changing non-starred ratings to stars and otherwise violating Wikipedia:Manual of Style, you will be receiving "stop vandalism" templates. Thanks! Daniil Maslyuk (talk) 12:27, 2 September 2008 (UTC)Reply

Bad charts

edit

Please compare the charts you want to add to articles to WP:BADCHARTS before proceeding. This is the second message on your talk page about adding charts that violate WP:BADCHARTS. The Bulgarian singles chart is listed there, as is the Italian chart on acharts.us. Additionally, the unsourced chart position you added for the Spanish charts on Right Round did not verify at the official site. Since Right Round never made the official Italian charts, I couldn't correct that position. Accordingly, I've reverted your edit.—Kww(talk) 12:39, 26 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

I found a source for the Spanish position, so I added it back in.—Kww(talk) 13:13, 26 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
Italiancharts.com has the official FIMI charts. If you have any sourcing that shows that the chart on acharts.us is a good archive of the M&D chart, please bring it up at WT:Record charts. We've tried to validate it before, but have been unable to. M&D only publishes the top 5 on the web, and only has one week available, so no one has been able to crosscheck the archive at acharts.us against it. It would be much easier for everyone if we could prove that the acharts archive is good, so don't feel like people are going to fight for the sake of fighting ... we just need something we can validate.—Kww(talk) 13:43, 26 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
That's a different issue. I agree that the M&D chart is a good one, and would have no problem including it. What we need is some evidence that the chart on acharts.us is the M&D chart. The FIMI chart is, as you say, a digital-only chart, but at least it's an official, sourced, and reliable digital-only chart.—Kww(talk) 14:23, 26 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
We've been through this discussion before at WT:Record charts, and the decision was to exclude it, because it couldn't be validated. All I can ask of you is to use the FIMI chart as long as the acharts.us chart is listed at WP:BADCHARTS. Like I said, it would make everyone happier if there was a way to validate the acharts.us archive, so if you ever find anything, bring it up there. If you just want to try again to convince people that matching the top 5 is enough evidence, you can try that, too. Personally, I think the acharts chart probably is the M&D chart: we've had a couple of Italian editors say so, and the guy that runs acharts has said so in an e-mail. Me thinking so personally isn't enough, though. Evidence is what we need.—Kww(talk) 14:40, 26 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
You can give it a try at WT:Record charts. I don't do this based on personal opinions of whether a chart should or should not be on WP:BADCHARTS, I just follow it. If you want it to change, bring it up there.—Kww(talk) 15:33, 26 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Flo Rida

edit

Hi

RIAA awards are total, not cumulative. For example, if the RIAA's highest award for Flo Rida is "2x Gold", this means the highest award is "2x Gold" - not "2x Gold + anything awarded previously".

If you're unhappy with using the RIAA website to verify RIAA certifications, you could checkout Billboard: their list has "Right Round" at Gold, Platinum, Multi-platinum (i.e. highest so far is "2x Platinum") and no listing for "Sugar" - which exactly tallies with the RIAA site.

ArbCom elections are now open!

edit

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.
