Editing Talk:Belinda (entertainer) From

Contents

[edit] Peak Positions (Peru)

The Offical chart of Peru is Perú Top 100. Ni freud ni tu mama only manage to peak at #99 in Peru, and Lo Siento, Vivir, Angel and No Entiendo are the only song that chart in the Peru Top 100.

[edit] Nominations

Whoever keeps putting 'Coming Soon' by nominations that Belinda has gotten that haven't been announced needs to stop. It looks very 'fan created' and unprofessional. Put Nominated and when the award is announced, it can be change to 'won' if she won, or nominated if she didn't.

[edit] Bella Traición

The single 'Bella Traición' of Belinda made it to #7 on Mexico but her wikipedia page still has her at #11. Could anyone fix it?

[edit] Belinda peregrin

Belinda had a hit on amigos x siempre the novela was on univision and a lot of pepole whatched it the grop was a hit but when the grop was over and a lot of pepole wher sadthe novela ended but i think you can buy it on univsion.com.

[edit] YouTube links

This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it. Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed. I'm putting this message here, on this talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy. In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material that violates someones copyright. If you are not sure if the link on this article should be removed or you would like to help spread this message contact us on this page. Thanks, ---J.S (t|c) 03:59, 10 November 2006 (UTC) Hey! This is Belinda! Thank you everyone

[edit] Removing Biased comments/statements...

Removed: "..and this amazing song is climbing the charts" from the sentence ".."Ni Freud, Ni Tu Mamá", can be heard in her official myspace profile.."

as this statement is clearly biased ".. this AMAZING song .." and there is no sources disclosed as to which charts and when it is ".. climbing the charts."

[edit] Vandalism

STOP vandalism. To the stupid people who try to ruin the article, i say stop because your's IP were saved so if you still trying to ruin the article wikipedia maybe cancel your's entry. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Nelsondavidd (talk • contribs) 22:52, 24 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] Infobox

I have protected this article because of the week+ of edit warring over this article's infobox. Please discuss the issues rather than warring over something like this. Metros232 17:39, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

  • I've said this many times before, the infobox should include her origin, Mexico. If it were asking for birthplace, it would iclude that, just like infoboxes for models (Adriana Lima) or footballers (Rafael Marquez) do, but it doesn't. User:Energyfreezer doesn't seem to understand this. Belinda is only Spanish by birth, but Mexican by Nationality. And her career "originated" in Mexico, which is obviously what the singers' infobox asks for, where the singer's career originated. -- Lancini87 20:13, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Outside view

I'm outside to this, I only noticed the revert war and that's why I protected this. But doesn't Template:Infobox musical artist say both should say? Looking at the page, it says "The artist's date of birth; it is possible to use {{birth date and age}} (with parameters in order year, month, day) to display current age. Also list the place of birth, if it differs from the artist's origin/"hometown" (see below). " and "The city from which the singer or group originated (that is, the city where the group was founded; or the city where individual performers started their career, should it not match the location of their birth). " That's for the born and origin fields of the template respectively.

So based on these guidelines, shouldn't both be listed? Metros232 01:20, 20 March 2007 (UTC)

  • If you review my last edit, before User:Energyfreezer reverted it, you'll see that that i had included both, the place of birth and "the city from which the singer or group originated (that is, the city where the group was founded; or the city where individual performers started their career, should it not match the location of their birth)." And as you know i've explained this many times before. But isn't it ironic? User:Energyfreezer threatened to ban me for supposedly vandalizing Belinda's article, and it turns out, he's the vandal. :P -- Lancini87 01:40, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
    • However, in your last edit you change the flag. You only included the flag for Mexico and removed the flag that was included for Spain by Energyfreezer. So, in a way, you're contributing to this by saying the origin should stand out more by having a flag denote it. If you noticed in the template, it never mentions the use of flags for either one. I think a flag either needs to be included for both or for neither. Metros232 02:24, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
      • Well, the Mexican flag was there first, but i know what you mean. -- Lancini87 03:10, 20 March 2007 (UTC)
        • Well, all I have to say, is that in my last edit, I told the other editor, that birth place should only be placed in the infobox, not anything else, this is not a circus, this is an encyclopedia; and users can't be putting whatever they fancy, just because they feel like doing it. Energyfreezer 15:29, 21 March 2007 (UTC)
          • Putting whatever they fancy? It's obvious you didn't read the Template:Infobox musical artist. -- Lancini87 17:12, 23 March 2007 (UTC)
            • Oh, really? Why do you like to delete the birth place, then?Energyfreezer 16:40, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
              • Before accusing me of something i didn't do, i suggest you review my last edit, i never deleted the birthplace, i only added Mexico as the origin, according to the Template:Infobox musical artist. -- Lancini87 17:55, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
                • Fine, you can add it, only if you cite it. Energyfreezer 16:11, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
                  • Cite it? What do you mean? Everyone know she's spent her whole life in Mexico and obviously also started her career there. You only have to read her biography to figure that out. What's your problem anyway? -- Lancini87 21:34, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
                    • Everyone? Well, others, including myself, don't know that. And I don't have any problem. You are the one deleting everything concerning her nationality in the infobox and the article itself. But it's OK, I reckon I got confused about the definition of origin in the infobox, but her nationality should be there as well, being more important than the place where she sang her first song ever. Energyfreezer 21:17, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
                      • Oh, come on! You wouldn't even bother arguing if you didn't know. And about her nationality, i'm sorry to disappoint you, but it is Mexican. If you still have doubts, just take a look at the 6,400+ results on Google and the 600+ results on Yahoo! for the phrase cantante mexicana belinda. And if you search for the phrase cantante española belinda you get 0, no results on Yahoo! and only 3 results on Google -- Lancini87 21:45, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
                        • Who cares what Google search results bring? Check her official website, and it says she was born in Spain. Period.
                          • Seriously, how stubborn can you be? Whether you like it or not, she is MEXICAN, okay? Nobody's arguing about where she was born. She's only Spanish by birth, but Mexican by nationality. And just because you say otherwise, it doesn't mean you're right. The facts are there, you can't deny them. And again, i'll ask, what's your problem? -- Lancini87 00:10, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
                            • And not because you say it, it has to be that way. Cite it and then we talk. Energyfreezer 04:55, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
                              • You know what? It's no use talking to you. But you won't get your way. Be sure of that. -- Lancini87 05:19, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
                                • Once again, because you say it? Energyfreezer 14:39, 7 April 2007 (UTC)
                                  • I think at this point you two should agree on something. It has been four weeks since the page was locked because of this discussion. Now, let's take a loot at the article for Frankie J. He was born in Mexico but it was in the United States where his professional career started. He was raised in San Diego, so that is his origin. For Belinda, she was born in Madrid but since a child she has been in Mexico City and that is where her career originated. Can we follow that example? To be consistent? --FateClub 00:36, 17 April 2007 (UTC)

Belinda born in Madrid, Spain. She say on a lot of interviews that she born in Madrid, so her birthplace is Madrid Spain. Herself is considered Mexican, but his legal birthplace is Madrid, so where say origin or birthplce the correct information is Madrid, Spain.

[edit] Move request

From WP:RM:

The page was only unprotected two days ago after an edit war. Since then, the page has been moved three times. That looks like controversy to me. This move needs to be discussed and agreed upon in advance. --Stemonitis 19:55, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

At first sight it may look like a controversy, but only at first sight. The three times are these:
  1. I moved it a few days ago from Belinda Peregrín to Belinda (entertainer), why? because she does not user her last name either in albums or TV shows.
  2. A newbie changed it to Belinda (Singer) by a newbie, with no explanation as to why. She is a singer, but also an actor.
  3. Being a typo, it was changed to the more natural fix: a lower-case "S". But the mover forgot to change the redirects.
There is no controversy on this, there was a controversy on a completely different section. But if you disagree that's fine. Anybody not agreeing on changing the page back to Belinda (entertainer)? --FateClub 23:48, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Belinda CD.jpg

Image:Belinda CD.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 02:06, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
