O Holy Night[edit]

According to the iTunes page for the Countdown to Play On, "O Holy Night" will be a bonus track for those who buy the singles from the countdown and then use the complete the album feature. Should this be added to the tracklisting in a new bonus tracks section? Akcvtt (talk) 04:27, 18 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal[edit]

I think that the articles Undo It, Mama's Song, and Temporary Home be merges into an article called "Play On Promotional Singles". None of the current articles really has enough information to have its own article. Thoughts? ---Shadow (talk) 00:47, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Merge to Play On - Per WP:NSONGS, the songs have notability due to being ranked on a national chart but, "Notability aside, a separate article on a song is only appropriate when there is enough verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album." These articles are unlikely to be anything more than stubs. Each of the promotional singles are around 2,000 bytes and the album article is around 12,000 bytes, so merging them together would be less than the combined 18,0000 bytes. Size would not be an issue, so what would be the reasoning for having a separate Play On promotional singles article? Aspects (talk) 00:56, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
The Black Eyed Peas also released three promotional singles prior to their album release earlier this year and there was an article that detailed the promo release of all three, so I thought that would be a good idea for these, but I now see that that article is gone. ---Shadow (talk) 05:08, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Fair enough. It looks like we should use that as an example, The E.N.D.#Promotional singles, of how these promotional singles could be integrated into this article. Aspects (talk) 05:16, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
What about the covers of the promo singles? ---Shadow (talk) 06:51, 12 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
If Underwood's songs are going to be included into the Play On article, than the same thing should be applied to Taylor Swift's You're Not Sorry and Fearless (Taylor Swift song). This should remain in different articles because they were released and they have official covers.95.77.160.72 (talk) 15:50, 13 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
This smacks of WP:Other stuff exists. Many songs are released and have covers, but unless there is "...enough verifiable material to warrant a reasonably detailed article; articles unlikely ever to grow beyond stubs should be merged to articles about an artist or album." like I wrote above that you failed to address.

(to Shadow)If the songs are merged into the album and there is not enough critical commentary about the songs, then the single covers would not be able to stay in the article and would be deleted from the Wikipedia server. Aspects (talk) 19:19, 15 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Temporary Home is not gonna have to merged as sources have confirmed it as the second single but the other two should be merged. --Caldorwards4 (talk) 01:17, 19 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am going to merge the information from Undo It and Mama's Song into a promotional singles section that would also include some information on Temporary Home, similar to The E.N.D.#Promotional singles that was listed above. Aspects (talk) 20:17, 29 November 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Albums produced by Max Martin[edit]

I removed this category, since precedent is that a producer has to produce the majority of an album for it to be categorized under any subcategory of Category:Albums by producer. Martin only produced one track. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Many ottersOne batOne hammer) 15:14, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pennynm (talk) 18:43, 2 March 2022 (UTC)== Editing for Organization ==[reply]

I will be working on editing this article and rearranging it to match the Wikipedia layout guidelines. If anyone has any suggestions I would be more than happy to hear them! My first big edit will be happening soon and I plan on reformatting the article to match the layout of featured album articles such as Rumours (album), Speak Now, and The Dark Side of the Moon.Pennynm (talk) 18:43, 2 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
