Personally, I believe that ALL Rihanna articles should include Rihanna singles and the main Rihanna template, maybe like this template=

Avril Lavigne
Studio albums
Live albums
Compilations
Video albums
Singles
Featured singles
Promotional singles
Other songs
Concert tours
Related articles

Does anyone know how to do this? Jagoperson (talk) 18:04, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

Could someone add 'Talk That Talk' (the song) to the lists of Rihanna's singles from the album 'Talk That Talk'. It's recently been announced as the third official single.

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. --Bryce (talk | contribs) 14:27, 11 January 2012 (UTC)

Earlier this evening, I reformatted the template to improve readability and make it slightly more chronological. For some reason Tomica (talk · contribs) reverted this by claiming that "uch changes should be dicussed beforehand". This is not the case, as this goes against the very core of WP:BOLD. This is the place for editors to air their views on why they feel the new layout to be amazing/inappropriate or something inbetween.

I tried (and failed) to get "Wait Your Turn" to be listed as "Promotional single" without getting the dimensions all mixed up (if that makes sense). Must be a way around it. SplashScreen (talk) 23:52, 9 July 2012 (UTC)
Decide that it's not a promo single anyway. Aaron 23:54, 9 July 2012 (UTC)
  • Oppose. I don't see a logic reason making this kind of template. First of all it's eye hurting, then it is repeated (single, songs, single, song, single, songs). I think that the only releases from the album are the singles and they should stay under the title of the album, and the songs have its own section called solely songs. — Tomica (talk) 00:05, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
  • In which case, why are there songs listed at the bottom? All that's happened here is that the information as been made more coherent in regards to each song's corresponding album. SplashScreen (talk) 00:07, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
  • But why were those changes made? Have you seen it as an example here before? Was it approved? Do rest of X singer singles template use it? I don't think so. They use it the format that the template currently holds. — Tomica (talk) 00:11, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
  • Don't try and flip it off of yourself. I don't even know Splashscreen. It's not as if I'm working on articles with him... Aaron 00:15, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
  • You don't know SplashScreen? He sure as hell knows you. Especially since he accused you of being in alliance with a few users, including Tomica and I out to get him. You two also seem to have talked together before. Weird. Statυs (talk) 00:16, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
  • They are completely different. A lot of users find them nonconstructive though. This is a classic and per my own opinion should stay like this. Btw completely agree with Status. — Tomica (talk) 00:17, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
  • Status, can you please comment on the issues about the template instead of starting your own episode of The Jeremy Kyle Show? And for the record, I noted that Calvin was a frequent editor of the same articles as you and the he was blocked whilst the suspicious behaviour was occurring. SplashScreen (talk) 00:18, 10 July 2012 (UTC)
  • Comment Tomica, please don't revert edits with the summary "these should be discussed beforehand", that's not how the BRD cycle works and you know it. Calvin/Aaron, please don't make insinuations of allegiances and whatnot, people are probably going to respond defensively to that and it's not constructive. Status, someone else's insinuations don't give you free reign to respond in like, that's also non-constructive. Just focus on the template issue and don't bicker with each other, it will save time. In regards to the template, I agree that the proposed revision does look a little messy, but it would be nice if the non-single songs were matched up with their respective albums. OohBunnies!
