These two links were added to the references section of the article. As far as I can see they're valid, but they weren't supporting any particular assertion. I've left them here so anyone who wants to can put them back in the article. -- HughCharlesParker ( talk - contribs) 04:11, 24 June 2008 (UTC)
What's the deal with the proposed deletion? She's one of the most subscribed musicians on YouTube; she has a legitimate CD for sale (both physically and on iTunes); has toured with high-profile musicians ( Ben Folds)... how non-notable is that? True, it could do with a few more sources, but so could the vast majority of Wiki pages. -- Sqrnookle ( talk) 14:04, 19 June 2008 (UTC)
So if we are concerned about being notable, why haven't you suggested that Gary Brolsma, the Numa Numa guy have his wikipedia entry removed. All he did was lip sync to a Romanian Pop song. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gary_Brolsma. I think it would be a mistake at this time to remove this individual. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.147.234.73 ( talk) 12:26, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
←I don't think we're going to make any progress by discussing Julia's notability any further on this talk page. The debate was had, and closed, at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Julia Nunes. Unless anyone wants to re-nominate the article, we should leave the debate here and move on. -- HughCharlesParker ( talk - contribs) 15:09, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
Three years ago, being when? Seems like a date is more appropriate for an encyclopedia. 164.144.248.25 ( talk) 17:34, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
removed for being non encylopedic Droidguy1119 ( talk) 13:42, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
I am not sure where to find this information on Wikipedia, but are songs in italics or quotes? Same for album names. Because this article switches between both several times. -- Mynameisnotpj ( talk) 20:48, 11 April 2009 (UTC)
Is there any known family connection to Manuel Nunes, one of three 19th century Hawaiian luthiers credited with the invention of the ukulele? From what little I've read elsewhere it seems likely there isn't, but I don't know for sure. If properly sourced a statement one way or the other would be a good addition to this article. 24.58.33.52 ( talk) 15:08, 18 August 2009 (UTC)
After searching flickr for possible CC images I turned up none, so I sent an email to Julia herself and she agreed that this article needed a photo. I've sent her information on how to add a picture, hopefully she'll follow through. Mopenstein ( talk) 22:55, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
I removed the link to the Bushman World Ukulele Video Contest 2007 entry in the "External links" section because I think is irrelevant. There are already plenty of links to Julia's sites there. UltraEdit ( talk) 18:08, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
Just to note that an image of an album cannot be used to illustrate a biography. The copyright information on this image needs to be resolved. Until it is, we have to assume that it is non-free and Wikipedia policy specifies that they cannot be used to illustrate living persons. See example 8 here on unacceptable use of non-free content. An image of the album can only be used to illustrate the album itself. In the meantime, the uploaded image is in need of correct copyright and permission and liable to be removed. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 12:25, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
I Added the tracks but I don't have time to add anything else, can anyone update the page to include her new EP, "I Think You Know"? Thelukeeffect ( talk) 01:19, 2 March 2010 (UTC)
I removed this from the info box and it was reverted by Fishhead2100. My reasons for removing it were that it is not a genre, it is a description of an instrument. Fishhead2100 claims "Acoustic music has varying genres such as acoustic rock, acoustic metal, acoustic jazz, acoustic Christian rock, etc." So basically that tells us that "Acoustic" can describe a very wide range of styles of music, but none of them are genres or subgenres and "Acoustic" on its own certainly isn't. Rock is a genre. " Acoustic rock" is neither a genre nor a sub-genre, it is Rock played on an Acoustic instrument.
The purpose of the infobox is to summarise an artist's music, calling it "acoustic" tells the reader nothing. It doesn't tell us if she plays rock, polka, folk, country, dancehall, R&b or flamenco. It just tells us her instrument is not plugged in. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 21:56, 3 March 2010 (UTC)
You are not convincing me of your stance. As you can plainly see, nobody cares or we would have more people commenting. Acoustic is a genre whether you like it or not. Mr. C.C. Hey yo! I didn't do it! 05:37, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
Removed this again for reasons outlined above. Mr. C.C. Hey yo! I didn't do it! hasn't 'proven' anything, despite claims to the contrary.
All that has been provided is a mention of "Acoustic" on Nunes MySpace site. As I have said, there is no issue with describing Nune's performances as "Acoustic", but it isn't a genre any more than 'solo' is. It is an adjective. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 18:56, 22 March 2010 (UTC)
-- Escape Orbit (Talk) 11:50, 24 March 2010 (UTC)
I notice that there are a lot of YouTube links used as citations. Now I know that YouTube isn't the best for references. I am not going to remove them, but it needs to be flushed it out and changed to non-YouTube links. Mr. C.C. ( talk) 20:55, 9 February 2010 (UTC)
Please discuss image changes to the infobox before editing. The new image is rather bad and unflattering. It is hard to see her face, her eyes are closed; the whole photo is underexposed, and at a bad angle. The other one is three years old, but I'd rather we wait until a good photo is generated than put in a new one that makes the article look bad. Elizium23 ( talk) 22:20, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
Mr. C.C. has again started edit warring over the matter of the genre he claims as "Acoustic" being added to this article's infobox. This was discussed some while back, and a third opinion sought. It didn't go his way, but apparently we need to go through it all again. My points are;
-- Escape Orbit (Talk) 00:00, 25 March 2012 (UTC)
If acoustic music was a genre, there would only be two genres, acoustic and electric. Please do not create redlinks to pages that will never be created. WP:Redlinks. I think we should put this to a vote. Thepoodlechef ( talk) 22:23, 7 April 2012 (UTC)
It's been a week now. Fishhead2100 has declined to explain his change, has made no attempt to engage with any of the above responses, and has produced no reference to support his change. I'm going to revert his change back again to what is the consensus; "Acoustic music" is not a genre. I trust that should he have anything new to add he'll bring it to this talk page, rather than disruptively re-insert. -- Escape Orbit (Talk) 21:35, 13 April 2012 (UTC)
Julia has been doing a great deal of living room tours over the last year, but I have nothing to support them other than I have attended one and that the tour dates are posted on her web sites, but once done are taken down. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Aggie80 ( talk • contribs) 12:07, 29 May 2013 (UTC)
Dear Wiki,
Your link under the section "Recent Work" for the Bushman World Ukulele Video Contest should be http://bushmanmusic.com/video-contest.html You have http://bushmanmusic.com/video-contest please add the .html so the link will work.
Under "References" see point 16. you also have a bad link. It should be http://bushmanmusic.com/video-contest.html
Thanks for fixing this ASAP!
