If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. Minimac (talk) 12:26, 26 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Almost five years later, and you are still trying to add material that is unsourced. Where, for example, is the evidence that Barbie Gaye's recording was "hugely popular" in Jamaica? I haven't seen that stated elsewhere, and you haven't provided a source, so I've removed that statement. Ghmyrtle (talk) 13:09, 1 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Allmusic.com has a compilation album, various Artists Jumping the Shuffle Blues: Jamaican Sound System Classics 1946-1960, in which Barbie Gaye’s, song My boy lollipop is on the album Fgone (talk) 16:01, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Djmag.com has article that claims Fats Domino and Barbie Gaye Were very that popular on the Jamaican sound systems of the late 1950s Fgone (talk) 16:03, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

In fact just about every online reference names both artists the Wikipedia article omitted Barbie Gaye for some reason Fgone (talk) 16:04, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The mere fact that a track was included on a compilation album does not make it an appropriate source. The only article I can find at Djmag.com that mentions Gaye's records is this one, which refers to its rhythmic style but does not place it in the same category as Fats Domino's music, which was indeed widely heard and popular in the Caribbean. Her record may have had a ska-type rhythm, but I haven't seen any evidence that it was well known or popular in Jamaica, and she herself seems to have had only a very brief and obscure career. If you want to reinstate claims about her popularity, you need to provide a link to a

reliable source - if "just about every online reference" mentions Gaye's record, providing a source should be simple. Otherwise, those claims cannot be included in an article here. Ghmyrtle (talk) 16:25, 2 July 2019 (UTC)[reply

OK, thanks - we're making progress, though your second and third links don't connect to any useful sites. The first site - https://www.jamaica-land-we-love.com/jamaican-ska-music.html - is interesting, though it's essentially a personal blog which we shouldn't really use as a source (per

WP:BLOGS), and I suspect that much of its content may well derive originally from the Wikipedia article itself. However, at least it mentions Barbie Gaye's recording, and given that most of the Ska article is already poorly sourced or unsourced, in my view it's not much of a stretch to use that blog as a source in that article. However, other editors may well take a less relaxed view than me - we'll see. Ghmyrtle (talk) 08:45, 3 July 2019 (UTC)[reply

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited My Boy Lollipop, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Third Wave. Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.
