Talk:High School Musical (soundtrack)

message: Was "Breaking Free" actually #1 on iTms and those other 8 on the top 50?  or is this the soundtrack section of the store?  I avidly watch the store, and I can't see how I missed this, especially as not one of the 8 that supposedly hit the top 100 are on it now, and the soundtrack is still #2 on the billboardsjj 21:23, 1 June 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: iTunes

message: I was thinking that the individual pages for each single was a bit extraneous. The majority of the content on those pages were background information that can easily be found on the original movie page. Once that information is factored out, all that remains is a brief summary of the lyrics (only a few sentences long). Therefore I believe that those extra pages should be removed and the small amount of information on those pages be somehow brought into this page. I honestly think otherwise, it looks a bit sloppy.--Jonthecheet 06:25, 1 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I agree, mostly for the two singles that you've already proposed for mergers. However, the other two ("Breaking Free" and "What I've Been Looking For") do seem to have a bit more substance to them (More so for "Breaking Free"), even if it's mostly just chart performance statistics... so maybe they could be kept? Possibly add a small lyric excerpt to the "Song Information" section of the Breaking Free article? Weien 03:22, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: *Well my thoughts were that the "Song Information" part of "Breaking Free" is simply a summary of the actual movie High_School_Musical and thats why I thought it would be unnecessary. I do see that the Billboard chart information is useful, but I don't understand why it could not be added onto this page; it really isn't too much information. As for lyrics, I think it would be better to create and external link to the official site High School Musical and note it as a place for lyrics.--Jonthecheet 07:38, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Maybe we should do something like they did on the Evita#Songs page, which is where they list the songs they also give a brief description on what context the song is in. --kralahome 05:40, 9 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: *That Evita idea seems pretty solid; summaries of the songs would work very well here. As for the chart performance, we could possibly create a table like on the Busted_Stuff#Charts page. I personally believe that is the clearest format we can use for chart rankings and whatnot. It is simpler to understand than what is on the individual pages right now (i.e. excessive information about chart movement during the first week) where the most valuable information would be peak positions.--Jonthecheet 06:00, 10 February 2006 (UTC)

text: *Another comment I had was that the rankings seem to be in 3 different parts. Is there anyway we can have one large section (Mainstream Success) and have subsections about ranks on specific lists (Billboard, iTunes, etc...). I just feel that is our most cluttered area--Jonthecheet 17:39, 15 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: *Yes, the Mainstream Success section and information are probably what need the most work. I'm thinking that the singer information (e.g. Zack Efron, Andrew Seeley, etc) doesn't need to be there, and would be better off placed in the "Tracks" section, which would be quick first step to cleanup ^^. I like the idea of separating the different statistics of the soundtrack (Amazon.com) and of each separate song by specific lists, since the info from Billboard, iTunes, etc tends to mush together. One question--would using a table similar to the one at Busted_Stuff#Charts work well here, since the success of the soundtrack tends to fluctuate on a monthly (if not weekly or daily) basis?

text: Steve, I think our intention is to merge all six of the song "subpages," not just those two. But perhaps maybe only two of them have been flagged for merge so we don't have six big merge banners at the top of the page (but still two, to show that it's not any one particular page that needs merging)? Just speculation, but to clarify, yes, they should/will probably all be removed, unless there's a good reason not to. Hope that helps. Weien 06:09, 17 February 2006 (UTC)

text: Weien, looks way better than when I made that comment. I was wondering though is there any way to merge the cells for the "Mainstream Success" section, like the song title? I was also wondering what you would think about removing the Year column, since they are all 2006. Finally, I was wondering why you didn't add the iTunes rankings into the same section--Jonthecheet 06:15, 18 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merging Issue 

message: Just noticed that the entire "Song Descriptions" section that I wrote up back in February this year was deleted in this October '06 edit, on the grounds that it was "copyvio and original research." However, that section was just what we created due to the merging issue, discussed above. Could we possibly address bringing this back--I mean really, can something be both copyvio and original research, and how was this section either? Thanks, Weien 23:02, 20 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Article name?

message: The titles given to songs which have been dubbed from this movie are completely incorrect.
The tiles have rather been translated. The songs in the hindi version are not translated rather
they have been dubbed in such a way so as to suit the characters' lip movement and the rythem of the song. So I want it to be corrected. I would have done it myself if I knew how to write devnageri script here in. So whomsoever is able to right devnageri script here in, Please correct it. I am providing with the actual hindi titles.
English Title                       	Hindi Title
Start of Something New              	Mann Gaye Kyun
Get'cha Head in the Game            	Ho Ek Hi AimAim here is the English language word
What I've Been Looking For          	Is Dil Ne Kahin Jo Bate Nai
What I've Been Looking For (Reprise)	Is Dil Ne Kahin Jo Bate Nai (Reprise)
Stick to the Status Quo             	Jo Karte Ho Wohi Karo
When There was Me and You           	Dhun Chodi Adhuri Kyun
Bop to the Top                      	Haarenge Naa
Breaking Free                       	Chhoo Le Amber Hi
We're All in This Together          	Yeh Mauj Hai Ek Ho Jaaye
Hope someone corrects it
