Moved? edit

I'm pretty sure this song deserves to be a primary topic compared to Justin Bieber's song. What rationale was there to move this page?--Krystaleen 02:47, 8 September 2012 (UTC)Reply

Proposed move edit

As Long as You Love Me (Backstreet Boys song)As Long as You Love Me

  • This is clearly the primary topic. One of the most successful singles by the highest-selling boy band of all time is more historically significant than a Bieber's version, which wasn't as internationally successful. Also, statistics shouldn't be relevant here, considering the huge fifteen-year gap between the subjects. Additionally, there was never an agreement nor even minor discussion to move the article. Please support or oppose this. Arre 06:16, 18 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose. Both are very successful songs by very successful artists. There's no clear primary topic here.  — Statυs (talk, contribs) 03:03, 20 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

As Long as You Love Me (Backstreet Boys song)As Long As You Love Me (Backstreet Boys song) – The consensus did not agree to uppercase "As" at Talk:It's the End of the World as We Know It (And I Feel Fine). However, perhaps this case is different? This book lowercases it for the Backstreet Boys song. Same with this and that and that. Also Rolling Stone does it. (This source is unreliable because it copies Wikipedia articles; don't use it.) Another reason besides sources is the WP:NCCAPS. Because "As" is used twice as a correlative conjunction, a two-letter word should be uppercased as the title doesn't use it as either "coordinating conjunction" or "preposition". I would like to request a multi-page move, but that is too risky. George Ho (talk) 07:06, 22 March 2016 (UTC) --Relisted. George Ho (talk) 00:02, 30 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • Perhaps this is unfocused, because simply typing in the search bar "As long as" you receive dozens of articles. Simply requesting a RM in a random article (despite there are 4 "As Long as You Love Me") is not necessarily the best. © Tbhotch (en-2.5).
How is this unfocused and then random, Tbhotch? I was making a test RM as a predecessor to multi-moves. George Ho (talk) 10:34, 31 March 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Oppose – confusing rationale. And instead of a "test RM", a multi-RM with a more detailed rationale would make more sense. Dicklyon (talk) 06:46, 1 April 2016 (UTC)Reply

Music video screenshot removed edit

I've inserted a screenshot of the music video in the section, which is describing what is being stated in the article. I don't see any reason for why it should be removed or replaced, since it fulfills all the requirements of the non-free content criteria, and is standardized across all Backstreet Boys singles articles. I'm interested in having friendly discussion about this issue --Angryjoe1111 (talk) 10:19, 1 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

@QuestFour: The screenshot in question accurately defines what is being stated in the music video section, and even references it in the caption. It also fulfills the requirements used in the non-free content criteria, and is contained in other featured articles, such as in this song and this song. You can also use your image in the article alongside the official music video screenshot I placed, however the location of filming isn't referenced or mentioned once in the music video section. As long as you can find a source that identifies the location of the shoot that can be placed in the section, I'm happy for both images to co-exist in the same section. — Angryjoe1111 (talk) 17:16, 30 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

The building is seen at the end of the video, @3:31 to be precise. QuestFour (talk) 17:25, 30 September 2019 (UTC)Reply
