Contested deletion edit

This page should not be speedily deleted because... (I am a diehard fan of David Archuleta, I make sure the Wikipedia pages on his discography are up to date, there are a lot of people who've been fans of him in the beginning but have forgotten. I added this page, so that those people can be aware that he is still alive, and that he still makes music. Well, if they are curious. I mean, like, everybody is curious about SOMETHING, right? I am just a David Archuleta fan updating his discography on Wikipedia. Also, I didn't know about the other version, well, if that ever existed. If you, Interstellarity, are not a fan of David Archuleta, I'm sorry, I'm not going to delete this because of your opinion. This is off topic, but this article is honestly a MESS! I didn't know how hard it was to create an article here! I've only made edits to articles. Maybe someone with experience can fix this?? Keep the tracklist though, it's incomplete, but upon release day, I'll finish. ) --Meee Misellfandeye (talk) 21:08, 29 April 2020 (UTC)Reply

Meee Misellfandeye, What is largely needed here is some independent sources, or at least one, both to verify content and to establish notability. Independent professional reviews (not fan sites or youtube reviews, please) with a bit of detail would be very helpful. Given that, I or another editor could probably help improve this, but as it stands there is nothing to work from. Not every album by a notable artist is automatically notable.

Hi, DESiegel, I've added more sources that are less 'fanbase'-based, Billboard and Deseret News, just letting you know, so that the notice doesn't say, "Relies entirely or largely on one source' anymore. :) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Meee Misellfandeye (talkcontribs) 19:50, 1 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

Thank you, Meee Misellfandeye. Those are good sourfces. I have added the "date=" parameter to each. This is used to show the publication date (as opposed to the access date) of the source, when that is known. It can be very helpful. I have also used the sources you added to add additional information about the two singles. Note how i used the ref name to re-use the same ref multiple times, withotu creatign multiple entries in the list of refs.
Oh, to notify another ewditor with the ping feature, you should use {{U}} or {{ping}} or link to the editor's user page, such as by typing [[User:DESiegel]] (which will display as User:DESiegel). The templates make the same link, but display differently. For the notification to be made, the comment with the poing must be signed in the same edit -- otherwise the recipient does not get a notification.
Again, thank you. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 18:37, 2 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

ref formatting edit

  • Please do not use mm/dd/yy format in dates in references. Use either MMM DD, YYYY; DD MMM YYYY; or YYYY-MM-DD. Do not use 2-digit years, or all numeric forms other than the ISO YYYY-MM-DD. See MOS:Dates. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 14:43, 30 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • Please do not use mthe "group" parameter in a <ref>...</ref> tag unless you really have multiople separate groups of notes or sources, which is very unusual. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 14:43, 30 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
  • The point of using a name parameter on a <ref>...</ref> tag is so that the reference can be repeated just by using the name, without needing to repeat the details. The name does not repeat the full info, it is just an identifier. DES (talk)DESiegel Contribs 14:43, 30 April 2020 (UTC)Reply
