Welcome!

Hello, Fgone, and welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions. I hope you like the place and decide to stay. Unfortunately, one or more of the pages you created, such as The Space at Chase, may not conform to some of Wikipedia's guidelines, and may soon be deleted.

Or, you can just type {{helpme}} on this page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Here are a few other good links for newcomers:

Speedy deletion nomination of The Space at Chase

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.
You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on The Space at Chase requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a club, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Minima c (talk) 12:26, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit here was reverted by an automated bot that attempts to remove links which are discouraged per our external links guideline from Wikipedia. The external link you added or changed is on my list of links to remove and probably shouldn't be included in Wikipedia. I removed the following link(s): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xh-nzeFmX0k/.

Please consider using our upload facility to upload a suitable media file.
If you were trying to insert an external link that does comply with our policies and guidelines, then please accept my creator's apologies and feel free to undo the bot's revert. However, if the link does not comply with our policies and guidelines, but your edit included other, constructive, changes to the article, feel free to make those changes again without re-adding the link.

Carly, You're so vain etc

Hi. Unfortunately your being told the answer by the bartender is treated as original research (see WP:OR) and Wikipedi only allows info that is published and available out there. But if there's a book and you read the book and it's clear from that who it is, why don't you quote what the book says, and cite that as the reference?

Thanks for the advice. I'm going to try to follow it. Please review it when you get a chance, Cheers

My Boy Lollipop

The information you are adding may well be accurate - I don't know - but it is unsourced, and therefore should not be included, per WP:RS. Please provide reliable sources, or else it will be removed. Ghmyrtle (talk) 10:43, 28 November 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Almost five years later, and you are still trying to add material that is unsourced. Where, for example, is the evidence that Barbie Gaye's recording was "hugely popular" in Jamaica? I haven't seen that stated elsewhere, and you haven't provided a source, so I've removed that statement. Ghmyrtle (talk) 13:09, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Allmusic.com has a compilation album, various Artists Jumping the Shuffle Blues: Jamaican Sound System Classics 1946-1960, in which Barbie Gaye’s, song My boy lollipop is on the album Fgone (talk) 16:01, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Djmag.com has article that claims Fats Domino and Barbie Gaye Were very that popular on the Jamaican sound systems of the late 1950s Fgone (talk) 16:03, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In fact just about every online reference names both artists the Wikipedia article omitted Barbie Gaye for some reason Fgone (talk) 16:04, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The mere fact that a track was included on a compilation album does not make it an appropriate source. The only article I can find at Djmag.com that mentions Gaye's records is this one, which refers to its rhythmic style but does not place it in the same category as Fats Domino's music, which was indeed widely heard and popular in the Caribbean. Her record may have had a ska-type rhythm, but I haven't seen any evidence that it was well known or popular in Jamaica, and she herself seems to have had only a very brief and obscure career. If you want to reinstate claims about her popularity, you need to provide a link to a reliable source - if "just about every online reference" mentions Gaye's record, providing a source should be simple. Otherwise, those claims cannot be included in an article here. Ghmyrtle (talk) 16:25, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The following text appears on several online magazines... “recordings such as Fats Domino's "Be My Guest" and Barbie Gaye's "My boy Lollipop" (both hugely popular records on Jamaican Sound Systems of the late 1950's).

OK, thanks - we're making progress, though your second and third links don't connect to any useful sites. The first site - https://www.jamaica-land-we-love.com/jamaican-ska-music.html - is interesting, though it's essentially a personal blog which we shouldn't really use as a source (per WP:BLOGS), and I suspect that much of its content may well derive originally from the Wikipedia article itself. However, at least it mentions Barbie Gaye's recording, and given that most of the Ska article is already poorly sourced or unsourced, in my view it's not much of a stretch to use that blog as a source in that article. However, other editors may well take a less relaxed view than me - we'll see. Ghmyrtle (talk) 08:45, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
