Capitalization error

hey, just came to say that thank u, next is capitalized in lowercase rather than Thank U, Next! 2603:8080:4AF0:BF00:F5EC:8B37:7973:2AA5 (talk) 03:38, 6 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

agreed, request correcting title to force to all lower case. Sweetbreads19 (talk) 23:27, 20 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

although I do agree, most fans know it as "Thank U, Next" but Ariana confirmed its "Thank u, next" and not "thank u, next" or "Thank U, Next" Jacobthe the arianator (talk) 20:37, 19 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

Remove trap from the genre info box, lead sentence and composition and change it to an element as the source only calls it an influence and doesn't meet the Wikipedia:EXPLICITGENRE criteria. ~2025-38158-04 (talk) 15:33, 3 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Not done. WP:EXPLICITGENRE is an essay, not an actual policy. NotJamestack (✉️|📝) 16:20, 3 December 2025 (UTC)[reply]

where should I add this?

"During the recording sessions for the album "Thank, U Next" Ariana recorded many other songs like "Jada(like that)", "Juice", "Confused" and "In The Moment" for a deluxe edition for the album but choose to move on to the next era and focus on her upcoming tour leaving the songs unreleased. Fans suspect that Monopoly (song) and Boyfriend (Ariana Grande and Social House song) would have been on the deluxe edition." I wrote this and originally put it in release and promotion which was not the right place to put it but now I need to if I should put it in background and recording or the notes of the setlist or regular notes?

Where's reliable source for that? Camilasdandelions (✉️) 22:46, 19 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]

ariana grande did record these songs during the recording sessions and these were leaked also I am currently kind of busy so I cant get sources rn but i have been in the arianator community for a while and Ariana did actually consider a deluxe edition for thank u, next. but you can search it up if you'd like Jacobthe the arianator (talk) 19:07, 20 February 2026 (UTC)[reply]
