[edit] In the Ayer

Please, whomever keeps changing the featured female artist for In the Ayer, review the album notes for that record. Fergie is not on that record, it is Tiffany Villarreal. Thanks! --InDeBiz1 (talk) 22:05, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] On The Tamerlaine/InDeBiz1 debate

Roll was indeed a single as it is listed on Flo-Rida's discography on his Wikipedia page plus it charted from here and Canada and I also heard it on a radio station a few times. How do you think it charted. It should stay as a single. Also, Tiffany Villarreal only does guest vocals. She is not CREDITED officially. 131.109.10.224 (talk) 17:28, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

You can't cite WP as a source on other WP articles, per policy. Also, as I have explained on GT's talk page, that record did not actually "chart," in the actual definition of the word. An appearance at #61 on the Hot 100 is not acceptable for WP purposes, in terms of listing a record as a "single." Remember, the Hot 100 draws a certain percentage of its data from downloads/digital sales/ringtone sales and is therefore not entirely an airplay chart. Even then, a record is not considered to have "charted" until it reaches the top 40 positions on that chart, but for airplay specifically we look at Mediabase, Radio and Records, and/or Nielsen BDS. As I also explained on GT's talk page, just because you heard it on certain radio stations does not mean that it was serviced as a single. You may have programmers choosing to play an album cut or mixers choosing to play the record in mixshows. I can assure you, dedicating about 70 hours each week to my job as a CHR/Rhythmic Music Director, that record was not serviced by the label as a single. Therefore, it does not qualify to be listed as a "single" on WP. Best regards, --InDeBiz1 Review me! / Talk to me! 18:04, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Fair enough, but I'm not budging on adding Tiffany Villarreal. She is not officially featured. And where does it say that "In The Ayer" is the next single anyway?
Okay on the Tiffany Villarreal comment, I can accept that. As far as ITA being the next single... All Access is among the websites showing it going for radio airplay adds on Tuesday. --InDeBiz1 Review me! / Talk to me! 02:37, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
