Discography[edit]

I have a question for any seasoned Wikipedian out there who might be familiar with this topic.

For Mateer’s Discography, is there an appropriate circumstance (or use of any sort) in adding a column to display current stream counts for individual songs? The music industry today seems to measure success of certain records by the amount of streams that it will receive across various streaming platforms, and for this reason it seems as though it would be vital information to provide (much like chart positions), but at the same time.. given the rapid rate at which these numbers will increase.. could it be consistently outdated and useless data to provide?

Any input would be greatly appreciated! 4theloveofallthings (talk) 20:44, 2 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Website[edit]

There’s a gap in the info box between the musical info and the website url. I can’t figure out how to fix it. Coolasacucumba (talk) 02:23, 9 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

LGBT Studies Re-Ranking[edit]

I had requested a re-ranking for this articles about two months ago now and it doesn’t seem like the wiki project was notified?

I made a note of this on the WikiProjects page but nobody seems to be actively monitoring it. 4theloveofallthings (talk) 08:02, 12 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

BLP Issues[edit]

Our BLP policy requires that contentious claims about living people must be supported by reliable secondary sources. It specifically prohibits the use of "trial transcripts and other court records" to support claims about living people. As such, I have removed the details of Chandlee's convictions which are solely sourced to court documents. I have also removed the long quote from Mateer's website, which makes claims about living people based on a self-published source in violation of WP:BLPSPS.
