Move/Redirect[edit]

I created the page today for the Katy Perry song but because Waking Up In Vegas redirects to her debut album One of the Boys (Katy Perry album) I had to create the page under the name Waking Up In Vegas (Katy Perry single) i think it would be much easier and more subtable for the redirection taken off and the page moved, please comment bellow, FireFinder (talk) 16:46, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Comment in the space bellow (please do not use a headline but start your sentence with agree or disagree in bold writing):

Great work! However most article titles regarding singles are formatted as:

"Song Name" ("The artists name here" and the word "song") therefore I feel as though we should move the article by simply copying it's content and pasting it on the Waking Up In Vegas (Katy Perry song) page. Remember that we will have to remove the redirect link off the Waking Up In Vegas (Katy Perry song) article. You've done an amazing job building up the article so far, hopefully it won't get redirected as mine did a couple of weeks ago.

Happy editing,

Requested Move[edit]

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was not moved -- Aervanath (talk) 05:09, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Hey all, although this may be against WP:MUSTARD, I am going to request a page move. The title of articles must be correctly formatted according to our reliable sources. Currently, Waking Up in Vegas is the article name however, the "i" in "in" needs to be capitalized so the title should be "Waking Up In Vegas". Take a look at the tracklisting of One Of The Boys on the Apple iTunes Store or any of these following sources:

Each capitalizes the song title, therefore I feel as though we need to here on Wikipedia also!
I am going to request a move very shortly, so if anyone is opposed to my decision please reply bellow ASAP!

WP:MOSTM says "in" with lowercase. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 12:40, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Our standards say to keep the "i" lowercase.—Kww(talk) 13:16, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I think if it was my song I would have called it "Waking Up In Vegas" too. I don't see that it hurts to break with convention to match the actual title. The reason that prepositions are not capitalized is that normally they are fillers in a title and not an important part of the title. In this case "In" is an important part, which is a good reason for capitalizing it. 199.125.109.126 (talk) 16:17, 17 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
- Would you mind explaining why "in" is an important part of the title here but not elsewhere? Jafeluv (talk) 14:33, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  - Ditto. — AjaxSmack 04:54, 19 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose. It's pretty clear from Wikipedia:MUSTARD#Capitalization and WP:ALBUMCAPS that prepositions are not to be capitalized in album/song titles. There's no reason to deviate from the capitalization guidelines here. Jafeluv (talk) 14:33, 18 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Charts[edit]

8 in World Charts, please add it. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 79.222.190.200 (talk) 07:51, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As in the United World Charts? That is a non-notable chart according to Wikipedia policy, see WP:BADCHARTS. k.i.a.c (talktome - contribs) 10:39, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Waking Up in Vegas[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Waking Up in Vegas's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "rianz":

From LoveGame: "New Zealand RIANZ Top 40". Recording Industry Association of New Zealand. acharts.us. 2009-05-11. Retrieved 2009-05-12. {{cite web}}: Italic or bold markup not allowed in: |work= (help)
From Katy Perry discography: "Latest Gold / Platinum Singles". RadioScope. Recording Industry Association of New Zealand. Retrieved 2010-12-14.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 05:48, 16 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]
