Is this article about Shark as an artists or Amy as a person?
Because her "music" career started in high school and her public singing started in 2007, not 2014.
And she released songs as Amy Cushway in (at least) 2010, as Amy Billings in 2013.
And first EP as Shark was Nelson in 2014, not Night Tinker in 2016.--Маргарита Бабовникова (talk) 16:15, 27 June 2019 (UTC)
Consider the following differences in the article's history, here. @HankBate123: could you explain why you removed this material? It was sourced by reliable references and generally related to her early life. I will return this material and ask User:HankBate123 to discuss proposed changes here, before making such a substantial alteration to the article.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 06:57, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
On 23 October 2020 @Brownypaul87:: added information about the artist's single, "C'mon", citing a website, Wall of Sound, with an article there written by brownypaul (see here). This is one of many wp edits by that user, almost invariably supplying information from Wall of Sound as written by brownypaul. This process appears to be in contravention of WP:PROMOTION. I deleted that information and reference from this article and replaced it with another source (see here).
On the following day an ISP @106.71.249.83: deleted the new information and reference I had supplied and returned the Wall of Sound material (see here). I warned that user that this material appeared to contravene WP:PROMOTION on their talkpage and reverted their edits here. Later that same user returned the material, which I have subsequently reverted. To avoid an edit war I ask for any editors to justify the use of Wall of Sound in this article when it was supplied by a user with almost the same name as the writer at the website. The possibility of self-promotion is evidenced by User:Brownypaul87 attempts to create a wp page, Paul "Browny" Brown, in 2017.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 01:10, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
Just reiterating my claim here as I didn't mean to engage in an [edit war]. I provided information about the artist's new song and updated the page accordingly with a link back to the information that was supplied to us from the label and artist herself. Hours later this as changed to another publication's article on the same song with a "personal" review of the song, rather than information supplied by label and artist. This is a self-indulgent self-promotion act whereas the article I posted was based around information given to us by representatives. @Shaidar cuebiyar: I would like to know the reason why the article was linked to that certain publication, hours after my citation was given. Do you have a connection to the publication yourself? If so, wouldn't that be a conflict of interest? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brownypaul87 (talk • contribs) 12:24, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
Look, I didn't want to step on any toes here, I'm just trying to help the bands/artists we cover with additional promotion for their music/careers that's supplied to us by labels, PR or the bands directly. I'm still trying to work my way around this site and at the end of the day, it's about updating the musicians' information we cover. We are leaders in our field and have information other sites don't touch, hence why I want to update their pages with that relevant info. Being a smaller site, I'd like to build our credibility on here like bigger publications such as Kerrang and Rolling Stone and I have no idea what the right way to go about doing that or creating our own page is, without it being considered "self-promotion", however bands have used our reviews and articles for their own pages as critical responses without us doing anything, so I'm just looking at ways to assist that side of it 04:24, 26 October 2020 (UTC)~~ — Preceding unsigned comment added by Brownypaul87 (talk • contribs) 15:24, 26 October 2020 (UTC)
@Brownypaul87 and 106.71.249.83: I followed up with the above and Primefac was understably busy with other matters. I contacted @Diannaa:, who determined that Brownypaul87's statement above shows that they are using WP for advertising. I will now revert those edits and ask both Brownypaul87 and 106.71.249.83 to stop using wp for such promotions.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 23:27, 6 November 2020 (UTC)
As Amy Cushway, the artist released two albums and two EPs. However, Love Monster, is referred to as her debut album in this article. Should this be changed to her third album? Will Cry Forever be her fourth album when it appears in 2021? Similar problems occur on her related articles for singles, EPs and albums. e.g. is Night Thinker her debut EP or her fourth one? I would like the opinion of other editors before deciding to make these changes.shaidar cuebiyar (talk) 04:41, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
