 == We're are all nobody == 
 Amy Macdonald, 

 If that is who you are.  Your experience here is a common story, but only because people can't appreciate that Wikipedia takes no-one's word for it.  The fact is that on Wikipedia all the editors are nobodies.  I'm nobody, you're nobody,  is nobody.  In fact you don't even have a name, you are just a number.  So it's never enough to say ""It's true because I say so, and I should know.""  Wikipedia needs reliable cites that prove it is true.  So if you really think the figures are wrong, and really want your No 1s back, please find some cites that prove it.  No one is saying you are wrong, they are saying you have to prove it.  That's how Wikipedia works.  

 If it didn't work that way then your article would be full of rubbish that someone else once swore was true, but didn't have a cite for.  Have you looked at some of the crap that editors like  and myself keep out of your article?  If it wasn't for Wikipedia policy on cites you would be complaining on your MySpace blog how Wikipedia will believe anything anyone writes about you.   So you can't have it both ways.    "
