message: What do you think -- would Christina Aguilera constitute an expert for purposes of citation for the claim that this song is difficult to sing?
If I don't see a convincing negative answer by one week from now (11 July, 2013), I shall add the proposed cite. SteveT (talk) 03:12, 4 July 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: It's a good thing you did not add the citation because the claim that the song is difficult was not made by Aguilera. It was made by some random member of the site. If she had written the comment, then I would buy it as an acceptable source. 99.192.52.45 (talk) 01:44, 31 July 2013 (UTC)

message: We seem to have an edit war over whether "Genre: Hard Rock" belongs in the InfoBox. I thought it worth discussing here. It seems relevant enough to me and I don't see any good reason made in any edit comment either for including it or removing it, the closest being "Need source for genres" in edit 616178256 04:14, 9 July 2014‎ by the unnamed editor at IP address 183.171.166.227. Is there some Wikipedia rule or principle that would argue for the exclusion of a "Genre" tag in the InfoBox? SteveT (talk) 03:15, 16 July 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Edit war: Genre 

message: The article has been turned into a plug for Celine Dion without merit. Her version of Heart's Alone failed abysmally. Dion is mentioned in the very first paragraph of the article seeking to take away the accolade of success of Heart. I recommend this is removed by a Wikipedia editor, and as well, the Celine Dion version paragragh too further down. She should received a mention in the list of cover versions further down.Celine Dion should not be allowed to ruin the article by rubber stamping her name all over it. It should be about Heart.— Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.100.54.203 (talk • contribs) 07:28, January 4, 2016‎
:First things first: This article is not about Heart, nor should it be. This article is about the song "Alone".
:
:Next up is the edit summary, "Request that an editor removes the self-plugs of Celine Dion's failed cover version, just a simple mention in the covers list, and then lock the article from further edit by Celine Dion's associates." I see no indication that this has been edited by Celine Dion ("self-plugs") or "Celine Dion's associates".
:
:Stepping back, how would this article look if the only version of the song was Dion's? Well, that version charted in the several countries, so there would be an article. Essentially, it would be the introductory section that is currently there and the section on the Dion version that is there now. This is not a "plug" for Dion, this is information on the version she released.
:
:Yes, the Heart version charted higher and longer. Yes, the Heart version came before this one (but was not first). There should be (and is) a section on the Heart version. This is not a "plug" for Heart. This is information on the version they released.
:
:None of the other notable artists who have released version have separate sections because their versions did not chart (or otherwise pass WP:NSONG).
:
:Long story short: It looks OK to me. - -SummerPhDv2.0 03:30, 5 January 2016 (UTC)

just wanting to know if it is ok to add the genre "pop metal" to this song. Explicitly stated as such at this reference: https://www.al.com/life/2021/03/rock-legend-ann-wilson-of-heart-has-been-recording-in-muscle-shoals.html
