Hi I noticed you had changed the name of Christina's second residency [1] — I believe there's a misconception with the actual name of the residency, the sources gathered are not referring to the name as "A Truly Modern Twist", Aguilera is only describing that the show will be "a truly modern twist"… I had originally referred to the source from the Venetians website that states it only as "Christina Aguilera at Voltaire".

@Pillowdelight: Hey, I think you're right. I honestly have no idea what its called. Someone changed it on the List of Christina Aguilera concerts page so I changed it to make it consistent. Should we change it back to Christina Aguilera at Voltaire? What are your thoughts? Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 03:51, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Honestly, I would say to change it back. This is pretty similar to how Bruno Mars' residency is… it doesn’t necessarily have a "name" like Christina's, but on here it's called Bruno Mars at Park MGM. Pillowdelight (talk) 04:40, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds great! Will do tomorrow unless you beat me to it. Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 11:46, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I just corrected it, no worries! Pillowdelight (talk) 15:52, 2 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Just want to know why you remove the article in the footnote? 2e4yr (talk) 07:31, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why would such a massive footnote be needed? A picture is not a reference you need secondary sources as per WP:SECONDARY. Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 23:20, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I respect your decision in the matter since you are a big expert in the Marvel Cinematic Universe subjects, i just thought to put the entire article for future edits, and the photo as a source. 2e4yr (talk) 00:22, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your kind words although I would think that I am not a big expert. If you find an article on the subject feel free to add it in as they are proper secondary sources in which Wikipedia works with! Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 01:33, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Its good knowing good people, but I am a newbey at Wikipedia Editing, and I have no idea how to add it in the proper sources, I worked pretty hard just to get that blury photo onto the wikipedia page, I just tried to add the information vital to the full picture, information that isn't explained anywhere, and with new information without a proper source, it would must probobly be reverted by some amatuer wana'be expert, and since my first language isn't English, I left the information for someone more fluent to be able to edit and fix my typos 2e4yr (talk) 01:56, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

• information that isn't told anywhere else

2e4yr (talk) 01:58, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ahh okay. Unfortunately we won't be able to add it then. However, the photo you added can be re-added onto the page as a reference photo for the particular section it was used in - assuming it has passed all criteria for photos! P.S. your English is great! Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 22:09, 28 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How do I add a photo to reference? 2e4yr (talk) 00:56, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

See Wikipedia:Uploading images, Help:Adding image and MOS:IMAGES. Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 01:09, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

i added the picture link into the references, check it out and tell me if its okay 2e4yr (talk) 01:29, 29 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 23:07, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello Maxwell. I was rather surprised to see this edit from you, reverting an IP over updating a chart position the day before the chart actually updated. The chart archives only just updated an hour ago. Even if we know it's a sure shot for number one, we shouldn't change the chart position until the actual link has updated, unless we have a reliable external source stating so. Also, please don't add more than 10 charts to a discography wikitable, as you did at Sabrina Carpenter discography. I know the US Pop chart was there before, but you should have just removed a chart Carpenter hasn't appeared on very many times (like the Dutch chart) before adding another. Also, for the record, you'll find some editors disagree with adding notes in a column for a chart that is not a component chart of the chart in that column. The Dance Club Songs is not an extension to nor a component of the Billboard Hot 100, so be wary of doing that in future. Ss112 00:19, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi! Sorry yeah, I agree I was a bit hasty with that. I was planning to add in a source from Billboard but I forgot to do so. Won't do it again. As for the charts I had no idea about the more than 10 charts sorry! Thanks for fixing that up for me! I agree some editors aren't a huge fan of the notes - Although for Sabrina's case I thought it was worth putting in as its not an 'extension' of the chart but its still a big achievement for the song in the country (number one for "Alien", "Sue Me" and "Almost Love"). Thank you for the heads up! Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 01:49, 31 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, Maxwell King123321. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or Draft page you started, "All I Want for Christmas Is You".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thanks for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz ^{Read! Talk!} 23:03, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Please don't use edit summary to make your argument regarding an issue. Instead, it's healthier to initiate a talk page conversation. Thumbs only topped the Bubbling Hot 100, not Dance Club Songs like other songs did. It's simpler and direct to frame a sentence about songs in the lead when they all share a similar record/position, such as topping the Dance Club chart. Therefore, it's more concise to include only the singles that topped that chart and not all of her singles. Regards. ℛonherry☘ 12:56, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Thanks for getting in touch. I would appreciate it if you could stop being passive aggressive in your edit summaries saying for example: "Your reason 'it's so successful tho'" or "Because that's your personal opinion [...]". Where have I inserted my personal opinions? You are assuming I have violated WP:NPOV yet Wikipedia's "4th pillar" is to Assume good faith. You might not be intending to be passive aggressive but that is how I feel.

As for the issue on hand: Thumbs is one of Carpenter's most successful songs so I do not see an issue with mentioning it considering it DID top a chart - Bubbling Under Hot 100 chart - and was her highest entry on the chart until 2021. Saying which chart seems superfluous as its not the Hot 100 (aka the main US chart) and therefore since Thumbs also went number one, its sensible to mention it at least once. It is also her most watched music video and one of her most streamed songs so it's not an unknown song. Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 13:30, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to address only the issue at hand here. See, that's the thing, you want to include Thumbs because you just want it to be included. The thought process should be "Three of Carpenter's songs have topped the Dance chart. What are those? Ah yes, Almost Love, Sue Me and Alien." It shouldn't be "Oh, Thumbs isn't included. How can I try to include it??". Your approach to choosing what stays and not stays in the lead should be objective, not subjective. The Bubbling chart is neither a genre chart nor a significant chart. Unless, Thumbs has achieved a significant record, like topping a credible chart or achieving a career-high entry for Carpenter on a chart, it can't be on the lead. You claimed Thumbs is her most watched music video. If so, that's a good reason to includ Thumbs in the lead. Do you have a reliable secondary source to support that apart from mere views on YouTube? ℛonherry☘ 21:08, 16 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You cannot say that this is the only issue at hand here because you know what you are doing and how you are acting towards me and other editors. Also, how can you make the assumption that I "want to include Thumbs because you just want it to be included"? Where have I said that?

Anyway, I will not be replying further. I thought YOU could be civil but alas you cannot. Therefore, you can once again do whatever you want with the page I am removing it from my watchlist. Please deal with your WP:OWN issues. You quite frankly are a rude person. Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 02:33, 17 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding this edit, the information needs to be sourced everywhere it is contained on the article, so those notes should have been left there until the sources updated. Thanks. Ss112 00:13, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

What are you talking about? The sources are updated already hence why a secondary source is not needed. Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 04:54, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I was not sure if the information was, at that time, contained in the sources already. If they were, then this part does not apply. Ss112 20:45, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Also, edits like this are not as helpful as you might imagine. Merging the sources because of a temporary "inconvenience" like the cells are elongated obscures the source, whereas the presence of the citation directly below the citation is more helpful to readers to emphasise that the chart positions are new and an exception to the header source, as they are, and will be removed in due course, like when the header source(s) update. I only merge the sources when the sources are intended to be permanent or semi-permanent. Ss112 00:22, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In regards to this, they can't be removed because they are the literal sources for some of them. For example, New Zealand and Ireland source specific songs only. So why would they not be merged? Also, why would we want to "emphasise that the chart positions are new"? Maxwell King¹²³³²¹ 04:54, 23 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't say the sources should be removed. I know they shouldn't be removed. I'm saying there's no point in merging temporary citations into the header sources, which it seems like you're doing for some sort of aesthetic reason (the alignment of the chart positions doesn't match up because some of the chart positions have sources below them / it makes the cells look "not neat"). At least, that's the reasoning I've come across most frequently for why editors merge the sources that are placed directly below the chart positions into the header sources. If that's not the reason, then let me know what was your reasoning.

My point is that should really only be done if the citations are intended to be there permanently, as in, the information will not be contained in the header source within a week or two. My wording got a bit twisted up, but the presence of the citation directly below indicates the information is new/temporary/impermanent and can change week to week (as plenty of songs in 2024 do not debut at their peaks), whereas having information in a header source that has for artists like Carpenter been there longer implies that particular information has some intention of being there permanently when it doesn't. Trying to navigate to the header source, if it's even contained in that section (as some references are defined in earlier/different sections), can be a headache. That might not necessarily be the case on Carpenter's discography and you don't have to agree with that particular line of reasoning, but it's also more helpful for editors like myself who like to go through quickly and update a set of chart peaks to have them below the chart peak itself.
