| ==Unsolicited advice (but could be helpful)== | |||
| Hi, I'm ], and I work with the ], but I'm not acting as advocate for either of you at present. I'm writing this to both ] and ] about your recent flurry of edit disputes. I can assure you, without any judgement, that '''both''' of you have actually violated some of wikipedia's policies, and either of you or both of you could be subject to being blocked if it continues. | |||
| However, from looking at your edits, I see that both of you are active contributors and you have both added valuable material to the wikipedia, and I hate to see your productivity wasted. You seem to have gotten into a situation where you are editing '''competitively''' rather than '''cooperatively''' with each other. That's a shame, since you both seem very knowledgeable and since you seem to share an interest in the same types of music. | |||
| ===My proposal=== | |||
| I'd like to work with both of you to not only resolve the conflict, and to advise you on how to avoid this type of conflict in the future. There are a few simple ideas I have that have benefited me in the past, and I've come to see them as valuable core ideas for wikipedia editors. '''My goal would be to get you two working ''as a team''''', by working with each other collaboratively I think '''you could absolutely rock!''' | |||
| I don't really want to put the effort forth to help you though, unless you are '''both''' into it, your disputes are really so minor and easy to fix that really, since I'm kinda lazy I'd prefer to just go around cleaning up after the two of you. That wouldn't be as productive of a solution though, and not the 'best thing for wikipedia'. If you'd like my help becoming a dedicated editing team, I am absolutely willing to spend the time to help you. What do you think? Answer on ] ] 20:10, 19 August 2006 (UTC) | |||
| ==re:Call on Me== | |||
| I don't care if Jermaine Dupri confirmed it. If you're citing a chart position, then it needs to be confirmed by Billboard. This isn't a Janet Jackson fanpage, it's an encyclopedia. Once the chart is published and can be correctly sourced, then go ahead and put it all back. But until Billboard.com or Billboard.biz publishes the chart, don't post that it is #1 or I'll remove it. -- ] 01:26, 14 September 2006 (UTC) | |||

Revision as of 16:30, 16 September 2006
Welcome!
Promo performances
- Thanks for your message. I removed the lists of performances because it wasn't really clear what they were, nor if they were (or whether they could be) complete. Other articles on singles don't usually include such lists, but if you could make a case for them they could go back in. --Mel Etitis (Μελ Ετητης) 20:01, 29 January 2006 (UTC)
Thanks
Hi Thankyoubaby, thanks for supporting my request for adminship! Unfortunately, it ended with a final tally of 45/15/2, no consensus. I may have another go in the near future, once the school year is over. Thanks again! -- getcrunkjuice 23:10, 15 May 2006 (UTC)Sary

Hello =) I've trimmed some of the charts on that page. My edit will probably be reverted by an IP soon, so I'll keep the page on my watchlist! — getcrunk what?! 01:48, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
AMA request
User Tigermichal continues to remove anything negative about the song, and is showing strong PoV on the page towards the song, and will not stop removing other's work, examples: removes anything on poor chart performance, adding unofficial charts. I have not added anything to the page, just monitered it and reverted this user's deletes. Just by looking at Tigermichal's talk page it's obvious this user is a loose canon. Just compare my last edit to his most recent one.
Thankyoubaby 23:33, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
- Hello Windermere06, I'm Steve Caruso from the Association of Members' Advocates. I'm sorry to hear about your troubles with Tigermichal. I'm writing to inform you that we have recieved your request, and that we are currently in the process of finding you a suitable Advocate. You should be hearing from us soon. In the meantime, be sure to read through the AMA pages here at Misplaced Pages to get more aquainted with the process of Advocacy and what to expect. If you have any questions, don't hesitate to leave me a message on my talk page. :-) אמר Steve Caruso (desk/AMA) 16:56, 18 August 2006 (UTC)
- Hi Thankyoubaby. I am Wikiwoohoo, a member of the AMA and I would like to help with the problem you are having. What I would ask is that you let me know the full details of the problem you are having and I will then contact the other party involved directly, in order to begin communication to solve the trouble quickly and with the least disruption. Thank you! Wikiwoohoo 19:01, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
- Thank you for your message. I will now contact Tigermichal though I will taking a week long break from saturday the 26th of August. If I can receive a reply from the user either today or tomorrow then I will try to sort things then, otherwise, would you be able to wait another week, or I could ask one of my colleagues at the AMA to help you in my absence. In the meantime I will contact Tigermichal regarding the situation and your AMA request. Wikiwoohoo 20:40, 24 August 2006 (UTC)
- Apologies but after checking today, I have found that I will in fact be away for two weeks from tomorrow rather than just one. You could email me via my details on my userpage however during this time and if possible I will reply to you through there. I have not as yet reeived a response from Tigermichal. Wikiwoohoo 20:56, 25 August 2006 (UTC)
- Apologies for the delay in contacting you again but this is to check how the situation is progressing. If the problems you were having have ironed themselves out then I shall mark this case as closed on the AMA requests page but if you would like, continue to monitor it.
There has been no response so far from tigermichal to my message to them regarding the request. Wikiwoohoo 15:32, 13 September 2006 (UTC))
