So what other websites can replace them and prove the records released by other recording artists and the songs included in the records? Houtyuhn (talk) 07:35, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Since Discogs and MusicBrainz are no longer available, what credible websites can replace them? Houtyuhn (talk) 07:38, 26 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

KKBox, Spotify, ‎Apple Music is this okay? I have some doubts. Houtyuhn (talk) 08:25, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Houtyuhn. The artist, record label, tracklist, and runtimes are given on the insert or liner of the physical release, if there is one. Per WP:TRACKLIST, this "is generally assumed and does not need explicit citation in most cases."

If you do want a reference, many reviews contain some of this information. Here is a recent example from Pitchfork, you can see the artist and label info at the top. Some publications, like PopMatters, also include the release date, like in this recent example.

I personally don't reference streaming services like Spotify. But I don't know of any rule against it. GanzKnusper (talk) 09:16, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don’t quite understand what you mean, because I’m Taiwanese and a high school vocational student, so my English is a bit poor.

But Although each has its own controversial incidents, at least KKBox only has one infringement incident, but it won’t affect its credibility too much, right? Houtyuhn (talk) 09:25, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I don't know KKBox. In my opinion Spotify would be fine, but all information it contains could be found in a better (and more permanent) source. GanzKnusper (talk) 09:40, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

How about Apple Music? This is because I consider these three sources of music topics to be very trustworthy. However, none of the Chinese and English Wikipedia entries I've seen so far for recording artists seem to use these three sources. Perhaps it was because everyone had their own controversial incidents that reduced some credibility, so I began to have doubts about these three projects and came to inquire about them. Houtyuhn (talk) 10:04, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So what better (and more permanent) source is there for all the album information and track information included in the Chinese or English Wikipedia? Houtyuhn (talk) 10:06, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Here is what I use:

• For artist, track list, and track lengths:
  • liner notes of a physical copy (CD or vinyl record or cassette tape). My local library has a CD collection that I use for this.
  • the Bandcamp page of the album, if it has one.
• For record label and release date:
  • reviews in music magazines

I say "more permanent" because sometimes albums are removed from Spotify and Apple Music, and then the reference is lost. GanzKnusper (talk) 13:25, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I want to prove the records and tracks released by some Chinese and Cantonese stars, But I can't find in the source you provided above. Houtyuhn (talk) 13:55, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, thank you! GanzKnusper (talk) 14:58, 4 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

You are invited to join invite to join the WikiProject Latin music, a WikiProject dedicated to improving articles related to music performed in Spanish, Portuguese and languages of Ibero-America. Simply click here to accept! Or, if you're interested in reading more on Latin music, you may want to check out the Latin music portal.

I've noticed your contributions to Colombian music and thought you might be interested. Erick (talk) 21:40, 9 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the invite, I'll join. I was unsure about whether it would make me more or less motivated, and I've decided it's always easy to remove myself if I feel the need. GanzKnusper (talk) 17:24, 3 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Heard about this on the radio just now--and I see we have an article already, so thank you! I wish I had noticed when you were working on it--this could have been a front-page Did You Know article getting tens of thousands of hits, haha. Thanks again. I'm going to order a copy. Drmies (talk) 22:15, 28 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your kind message. I enjoy making articles for notable compilation albums because it feels like there aren't so many out there -- nice to know that other people are reading them! 'Did You Know' wasn't on my radar until very recently, I agree it would have been a good fit. Ostinato Records put out a lot of cool stuff, the debut album by Groupe RTD is also well worth a listen.

Your user page has an error that I discovered because it was listed at Lint errors: Multiline table in list. I determined the issue was with the userbox markup. At Template:Infobox Wikipedia user, for |userboxes=, it says, "<!-- separate multiple userboxes with regular line-breaks, but not <br /> tags -->". It also offers the description for |Userboxes=: "Userboxes that describe the Wikipedia user. To display properly, multiple userboxes should be separated with regular line-breaks. Forcing breaks with <br /> tags will produce a gap between userboxes." You are not supposed to use {{plainlist}} here. I referenced the template summary in my edit summary for a reason. As long as your page is listed at Lint errors: Multiline table in list, editors are going to fix your page. I suggest you revert to my version. Cheers, —Anomalocaris (talk) 21:37, 3 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for the information. You are free to include anything you like in your edit summaries, regardless of reason. What does "you are not supposed to" mean in this context? If it is forbidden by policy, I will of course not do it. If the reason is the gap between userboxes, then forgive me if I find that an acceptable price to pay for doing things my own way.

You are invited to participate in The European Destubathon in April. Almost $3000 in Amazon voucher prizes which can be used to buy books for content, though it can also be treated as an editathon if you're not interested in competing! Minimum content to be added to each article just to ensure that they're over a stub, though longer expansions also welcome. Entries at the end of the contest will be tipped into the 50,000 Destubbing Challenge and European Challenge. Previous contests were really enjoyable and I'm hoping this one will be too! Sign up if interested. Thanks! ♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:22, 6 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hi GanzKnusper, I just wanted to let you know that I have added the autopatrolled user right to your account. This means that pages you create will automatically be marked as 'reviewed', and no longer appear in the new pages feed. Autopatrolled is assigned to prolific creators of articles, where those articles do not require further review, and may have been requested on your behalf by someone else. It doesn't affect how you edit; it is used only to manage the workload of new page patrollers.

Since the articles you create will no longer be systematically reviewed by other editors, it is important that you maintain the high standard you have achieved so far in all your future creations. Please also try to remember to add relevant WikiProject templates, stub tags, categories, and incoming links to them, if you aren't already in the habit; user scripts such as Rater and StubSorter can help with this. As you have already shown that you have a strong grasp of Wikipedia's core content policies, you might also consider volunteering to become a new page patroller yourself, helping to uphold the project's standards and encourage other good faith article writers.

Feel free to leave me a message if you have any questions. Happy editing! —Femke 🐦 (talk) 19:09, 10 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

On 16 March 2025, Did you know was updated with a fact from the article Domingo Chalá, which you recently created, substantially expanded, or brought to good article status. The fact was ... that Domingo Chalá worked as a gravedigger for much of his life before releasing his debut album? The nomination discussion and review may be seen at Template:Did you know nominations/Domingo Chalá. You are welcome to check how many pageviews the nominated article or articles got while on the front page (here's how, Domingo Chalá), and the hook may be added to the statistics page after its run on the Main Page has completed. Finally, if you know of an interesting fact from another recently created article, then please feel free to suggest it on the Did you know talk page.

I mostly tweak articles with errors that don't see a lot of traffic so I don't deal with wikipedia etiquette or politics much, and I appreciate you stepping in to fix the Willie Colón article last month. I knew something was off when that content was on the live version of the page. Much appreciated! PunishedSpigot (talk) 17:46, 2 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@PunishedSpigot: No worries, and I appreciate you taking time to leave this message! It was quite funny reading the commentary on the article, I hope the student editor comes back to implement their suggested changes sometime. GanzKnusper (talk) 19:27, 3 August 2025 (UTC)[reply]
