Redirects
You don't have to move pages to make redirects. When you put a page title in the search bar, Wikia gives you the option to "Create article [your search term]". —umbreon 126 09:03, December 10, 2017 (UTC)


 * Oh, never mind, my bad, it seems like Wikia did stupid stuff to the default skin.
 * You can use this method too (put the page title you want into a link), choose "Create article [whatever]", and put  into the editor (replace "target page" with the page name you want it to redirect to).

YouTube reuploads.
Hello. Please do not add the view count for YouTube reuploads. Also, please say that they are reuploads: do  instead of , and put it on a new line.

Also, please don't use.

Please refer to this edit for an example of the recommended formatting.

Otherwise, your contributions have been fantastic, and I hope to see more. —umbreon 126 05:59, December 17, 2017 (UTC)

ECHO? Lyrically questionable?
I am curious. Why did you tag ECHO with the Questionable template? What themes did you find in the song that are deemed questionable?

 * But what specific theme do those lyrics contain though? Destruction of property? I'm quite unsure.

Destruction of property, negativity, dark lyrics in general. - Zach Mando Games 00:05, May 10, 2018 (UTC)

In regards to multiple dates
See this talk page.

Basically the main reason this happened is because there are songs out there that have more than two uploads. Several Chinese pages are like this. Umbreon and I were basically the main editors for Chinese at the time, so we brought it up with the other admins about this issue because there were pages that had SoundCloud, YouTube, Niconico, and bilibili all at once with 2-4 different dates (Mimi is one example of a Chinese producer who does use all four). I'm sure you can imagine how painful that looks overall in just one song box. It's even worse if there are various versions of the song (like a miku version vs a rin version from the same producer). It looks really bad without either：

A) Putting different versions (especially if it's "miku's version" and "rin's version") in a succeeding/preceding version section

B) using a tabber to separate the two (though I personally only do this if the succeeding version is as popular or far more popular than the original)

I'm not sure if this was adjusted on the guidelines page accordingly, but it should if it isn't already.

 * Basically.


 * As a whole, we are trying to work towards removing reprints and removing extra dates (mention it in the background if you'd like, particularly if there's a very big gap between months/years). Removing reprints is an obvious reason, but the additional date thing is for overall organization.
