[edit] Move

I move the article Reba to Reba McEntire/Reba to preserve its history and copied the text into this article as Reba (Television show). The move was for copyright reasons (as it was explained to me). RJFJR 05:54, Feb 3, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] one of the best selling...

no citation needed. it's common sense. She's sold 60 million records, Dolly has sold 50. I'm sure no one would debate for a country artist that is huge. How much has Shania sold? about 50-60.

Quick we need a new Reba picture,t that one is so out of date,haha

[edit] Republican

should there be a reference to her ties with the republican party? as i recall she made some donations to the george bush campaign. can someone find a source for this and put it in?

[edit] iTunes Link

I have created a link linking to the iTunes store to help wikipedia users find music clips and see music viedos. Belovedfreak has been going around and deleting the link off of the page. He/she has emailed me several times explaining that he/she believes that there should be no further changes made under the "External Links." On top of that, he/she has been sending messages, telling me that there will be some kind of spam warning. I am most certianly not creating spam. I hardly even know what spam is. If any one has any objections or comments about this iTunes link being added to the page, please respond by clicking the link here:Email Devbob. If you would like to see the link that I have been trying to keep on the page, click here: Reba on iTunes!

                                  Thank You.

I believe linking to the itunes store violated WP:EL as it is advertising for itunes. Last i checked we weren't allowed to link to a store or a page selling items, unless the article is about said page. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 00:35, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

an itunes store would violate possibly all of WP:EL numbers 3-6. --Malevious Userpage •Talk Page• Contributions 00:38, 23 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] she's still got it

[edit] No mention of the TV sitcom?

There's no mention of the TV sitcom Reba stars/starred in. - Ageekgal (talk) 22:09, 27 November 2007 (UTC)

Yes there is under the section 2001-2002: Success in other media. --Caldorwards4 (talk) 22:51, 27 November 2007 (UTC)
