Boomerang[edit]

Hi Mr Preston,

This isn't a personal attack etc. However to claim something on wikipedia we need a |reliable source. You cannot claim that liner notes are a reference for the credits when the liner notes do not exist. There is no CD single hence no liner notes. Thus how can you prove that what you are saying is true? Unless liner notes are released for verification or we receive something from the label how do we know what is being claimed is true? — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 14:58, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Also wikipedia is not here for you to promote your business. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 14:59, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
First of all no need to be condescending with comments like "young man". I'm not here to conduct your business for you etc, nor is wikipedia here to promote things. Its a free encyclopedia of what should be verifiable information. In interviews all Scherzinger has said is that Sandy Vee produced "Boomerang". She hasn't mentioned Anthony Preston anywhere. Nowhere have I claimed that you didn't work on the song, all I have said is that you can't claim you did by referencing liner notes when liner notes for a CD release of "Boomerang", that simply don't exist for the public (as a fan of Scherzinger I can't go to HMV or Amazon and purchase a CD single). I am defending the factual integrity of the article. Any user could claim they were XYZ song producer and worked on the song otherwise. Nowhere was I rude, nor did I personally attack you in anyway. I merely pointed out that we have a guideline for unverified information.
We have clear guidelines on reliable sources which state that a reliable verifiable citation is required for something to be claimed fact and that without such a reference material can be challenged or removed. All I've done is remove material until such a time that a reliable source is found to prove what you are claiming is true. Per the guidelines my removal of the content is correct but your communication with myself is uncivildk: its condescending and rude. We can go around in circles but the fact still remains that at the moment what you are saying cannot be proved and therefore until it is proved it shouldn't be added. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 21:53, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Perhaps you should take it up with Scherzinger's management, she's the one who said in the interview that Sandy Vee produced the song and made no mention of yourself (as a co-producer) nor did Interscope in any of their press releases. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 22:19, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

With respect, that's one interview. And there are countless others where I am appropriately mentioned. An artist mis-speaking in a single interview is not a basis for my manager to reach out to hers. But thank you for your suggestion. From my viewpoint, there is only one person that I am defending the accurate information from at this point and your ignoring my invitation to satisfy your request for documented sources is telling.

Again, I will glad provide you with documents and I will continue to defend the accurate information.

Thanks you.

In all fairness Scherzinger has never said "Boomerang was produced by Anthony Preston and Sandy Vee". She's given one public interview with Digital Spy where she specifically spoke of the song and ONLY mentioned Sandy Vee. I haven't declined your offer I just am not willing to share my email address over this public forum. So I'm not sure how you intend on verifying the information. Perhaps you could take a screen shot or picture? What "documents" are you referring to? — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 22:35, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I saw that after you mentioned it. Nic is a good friend of mine and we produced her album. I'm certain she didn't do that in purpose :) DM me your contact on twitter. Again, that's one interview. I'm not discounting your intention: I'm just confident there's a better way to go about this.

If you search under @Lilunqiue1 on twitter you shall find me on there — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 20:44, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

"No people results for @Lilunqiue1." You can find me at @antonypreston. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.5.247.30 (talk) 21:11, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Typo that should be @Lilunique1. — Lil_niquℇ 1 [talk] 22:29, 1 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned non-free media (File:Boomerang CD Cover (Back).png)[edit]

Thanks for uploading File:Boomerang CD Cover (Back).png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:07, 5 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
