Merge

Resolved

Extended content

Since someone placed a merge tag on the article, we can discuss here. I don't think a merge is necessary. Why can't we just let the article snowball? Besides, if consensus insists this article cannot stand alone at this time, just redirect. Merging is a waste a time. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 18:05, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: There is also the option of moving to Draft space if needed. However, I'm not sure if people will comments like take "let the article snowball" seriously. Snuggums (talk / edits) 23:02, 21 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

UPDATE: I have incubated this at draft space per WP:NALBUMS due to lack of release date or tracklist. Snuggums (talk / edits) 01:50, 22 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Since the release date has been confirmed, can someone move this article to main space? I tried, but was unable to move over the existing page. Thank you. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 01:35, 3 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Concept album?

Unresolved

This article currently includes the category "Concept albums". Does a reliable source need to call This Is Acting a concept album? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 15:05, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in This Is Acting

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of This Is Acting's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "auto":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 01:08, 14 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

"Reaper" = single?

Has "Reaper" been confirmed as a single? ---Another Believer _(Talk) 17:10, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Update: The edit has been reverted. ---Another Believer _(Talk) 21:18, 2 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Promotional Singles

in fandom wiki, Bird Set Free, One Million Bullets, Cheap Thrills and Reaper are regarded as Promotional Single. It it true? Also Is Unstoppable single cover is official? I can't find that cover in any other sites. Please give me link or etc. Arismauve (talk) 13:38, 16 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
