thread_title:  Edit 

message: so that was deleted before the single/ep was even released under the premise that it did not chart. which doesn't make any sense - if it has not been released yet OF COURSE it didn't chart. if pages about things to come are not allowed, then the entire 'if' page shouldn't even exist for another month. but anyways, now MSI is claming in a myspace bulletin that, "'Never Wanted To Dance' is the Number One CD Single on the Billboard Top Singles Chart."
so now it meets the expectations that it didn't even fail in the first place. if anyone is good at bringing pages back from the dead, by all means go ahead.
the bulletin was later blogged on their myspace page titled "Thank you, we’re sorry, auf wiedersehen, goodnight... "

thread_title:  Never wanted to dance page 

message: There are several different versions of this release, and most of them have several songs in common. My hope was to reduce and condense this redundant information, however most people apparently disagreed and reverted my edits.  For the Censored version (only having one bonus track), something similar to Absolution would work well. On the Japanese version of Absolution there is an additional song between tracks 12 and 13, much like "Uncle" for If. For the UK version of If we could implement something similar to the deluxe edition bonus tracks on Still Searching where the first 13 songs on both versions are the exact same and thus removed. Also, maybe if anyone was really feeling up for it, he could create something similar to the Zeitgeist alternate versions. Fezmar9 (talk) 16:22, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

message: I know thea this album is referred to here as If, but the cover art, as well as the spines and the back end of the album refer to it as if. Which one should we call it? Lord Weasel (talk) 04:43, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: See Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums#Capitalization. It does not matter what the cover art displays, the first letter of a title is always capitalized when written. Fezmar9 (talk) 04:11, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: According to Wikipedia:Manual of Style (trademarks), titles with a lowercase letter is acceptable in the articles. "if" is a unique name for albums, and according to the wikiproject album's rules in the title always will be used italics (+ wikify, if it needed) → if Therefore, the album will always stand out from others if. --91.78.98.56 (talk) 00:56, 29 November 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: My apologies, you are correct. The rule applies only if there is a capital letter. --91.78.98.56 (talk) 01:05, 29 November 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Uppercase or lowercase?

message: For some reason it has Johnen included on this album, while his video contribution was to the song on You'll Rebel To Anything. This would also need a change to the template on Jhonen Vasquez Xenosentience (talk) 19:19, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
