: From reading the term "celebrity playlist" it was not immediately clear to me that this refers to a playlist created by a celebrity. At first, I naively thought this would be a playlist of songs sung by celebrities. But then it did not make all that much sense given that popular singers often are celebrities. The meaning of the term seems non-obvious without having a sentence in which the term occurs, but it could be obvious in every sentence in which it occurs. I don't know. In the phrase "The Beatles playlist" (a rare one), would this be a playlist of songs picked by members of Beatles or would this be a playlist of songs performed by Beatles? Maybe this is just a non-native confusion. In the quotation "Wondering what Paulina Rubio listens to when she's on the road? Check out her celebrity playlist": why does the question not just read "Check our her playlist"? The reader already knows that she is a celebrity, doesn't he? It seems that the quotations expects the reader to either know what "celebrity playlist" is or to find out using the search phrase "celebrity playlist". I for one find the definition clarifying: "A list of songs prepared by a celebrity, for fans with an affinity towards that celebrity's choice of music". --[[User:Dan Polansky|Dan Polansky]] 08:46, 13 September 2010 (UTC)

Ruakh may be right, but with no changes or objections more than 9 months later I'm deleting and closing it.

This is not a common phrase in Chinese, nobody says this, so it doesn't meet [[Wiktionary:Phrasebook]]. Furthermore, writing it in pinyin without tones isn't appropriate; for phrases that actually are common, it should either be written in pinyin with tones, or in characters. But anyway, as it's not a particularly common phrase, there's no use for this entry. [[User:Rjanag|Rjanag]] 04:25, 31 August 2010 (UTC)
