User pages

[edit]

It is best not to edit other people's user pages if you want to be taken seriously here. And no, the number isn't meant as an invitation. :) --Etacar11 19:27, 19 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Hehe... The worst part is that I thought I was being witty, only to discover afterwards that pretty much the same joke had already been done. Apologies. --CapitalLetterBeginning 21:16, 19 August 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Gorillaz

[edit]

I have been debating whether it'd be better to have a singles subsection under discography AND a "Chart Positions" section or just continue on the way I have been. As of now I think my current path is the better choice, but I may change my path once I'm finished with research.

The reason I put the US charts first is because they are a better representation of the popularity of a single (granted the UK only singles make it a little tough, though). The problem with the UK chart is it is only based on digital and physical sales whereas the US chart is based on the sales and airplay. Because of this, singles remain on the US charts for as long as they are popular, whereas on the UK chart they fall off after so many people have purchased them, even though they may still be gaining popularity.

Hangman

[edit]

Wow, that is an amazing guess. I'd be simply amazed if it is ineed correct! --lightdarkness (talk) 03:38, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hah, thanks... I suppose I was only almost correct really, seeing as Ian was looking for "on" rather than "in". --CapitalLetterBeginning 18:33, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

May Street Project

[edit]

Just wanted to thank you for updating Shea Seger's album page. It looks very nice! (I started the article; actually it was one of the first things I did on Wiki. Now maybe all that's left to be done is list the American singles with release dates. --Brian1979 12:51, 6 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Glad to know it's appreciated :). Don't have any info re: US singles, I'm afraid, but I'll look into it. --CapitalLetterBeginning 23:49, 8 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Gordon Lightfoot album numbering

[edit]

Hi. I noticed you renumbered the Gordon Lightfoot album pages. Sunday Concert was included in the numbering and will continue to be included as, despite being a live album, a majority of the material is actually original. Hence, why the number was "x original album". I have reverted to reflect how it was before and have changed the categories you added accordingly. As you can see from this link Harmony is generally considered to be his 20th release. Sunday Concert is counted for the reasons I've already mentioned. Cheers. Shadow007 15:15, 11 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, OK. I'd just assumed it was a misnumbering because I saw a few songs on Sunday Concert that I recognised as having been on studio albums. Thanks for the explanation. --CapitalLetterBeginning 18:26, 11 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah that's cool mate. Normally live albums wouldn't be counted, but Sunday Concert isn't a regular live album in that it contains a lot of previously unreleased tracks. Cheers. Shadow007 01:34, 12 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Odd Question

[edit]

Why do the Brits get new music releases on Monday and the States on Tuesday? Fantailfan 21:27, 17 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hehe, no idea! Well actually, I think new releases coming out on Mondays in the UK is related to the fact that the sales charts are compiled on Sundays – so to ensure the highest possible position in the charts, record companies release on the earliest day possible in the week. Then again, I may have that completely backwards and charts are compiled on Sundays because of a previously established convention of Monday releases. As for the US, I really don't have a clue... I'm sure I remember reading an explanation of the rationale behind Tuesday releases somewhere, but unfortunately can't recall any actual details.
Anyhoo, if you find out the answer, please tell me as I'm curious to know as well! --CapitalLetterBeginning 02:11, 18 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]


PopMatters

[edit]

Hi. I don't think you should be italicising instances of PopMatters – website titles aren't included in the italics guidelines at MoS:T. Thanks. --CapitalLetterBeginning 14:39, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, Thanks for your note. Italics are used on the basis that it is a periodical/magazine. Our article describes it as such, do you think that's OK? Rich Farmbrough, 14:54 10 September 2006 (GMT).
It's touched on on the talk page. Webcomics, it seems, are italicised. I'm happy to leave PopMatters for now though. Rich Farmbrough, 15:12 10 September 2006 (GMT).
Cheers. --CapitalLetterBeginning 15:19, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

REM

[edit]

Albums came out on Mondays in the US until about 1988 when the US release dates shifted to Tuesdays. I'm also going by the chart entry dates in Billboard. If an album was released tomorrow, for instance, it would enter the album chart for the week ending October 14th. Document, for instance, entered the week ending September 26, 1987, which puts its release date back to Sept 7 (the Monday of that week).

Losing My Religion

[edit]

I'm not sure when February 27th occured in 1991, so I can't say if it was on a Monday or not. But it's best to go with what can be referenced. Who's Rob Jovanovic? WesleyDodds (talk) 10:43, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think we should stick with the date listed in the R.E.M. bio. We can always look for another source to confirm one date or the other. WesleyDodds (talk) 10:54, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The Black bio, actually. It's the R.E.M. biography with the most involvement from the band. That and the Buckley book (which features heavy imput from Mills and Buck, but not Stipe) would be the primary sources for any R.E.M. article. WesleyDodds (talk) 11:01, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
All other books I have only list the month. WesleyDodds (talk) 11:22, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I agree with that. In fact I've been thinking only the US date is really relevant. WesleyDodds (talk) 11:32, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]


CORN MOUTH

[edit]

Hello there, mate.

Might I ask why you changed the track Corn Mouth into Carn Marth? I've been to various websites and that track is clearly listed as Corn Mouth. --James599 (talk) 15:30, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that, I should have mentioned in my edit note. See the talk page, specifically Slicing's message at 02:01 10 November 2005 UTC and Cparker's message at 19:21 25 February 2006 UTC, for discussion of this. See also Bleep's listing for the album. --CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 16:46, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Bitter Sweet Editing Of Yours

[edit]

We're all your citing requests to Bitter Sweet Symphony needed? While, it is part of Wikipedia policy to cite information that may be challenged by others, a selection of citation requests in particular the citing request you made about the world famous quote about the song being the best they'd written in twenty years, are common knowledge and are hardly going to be challenged by anybody. --Sky Attacker (talk) 22:18, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Many Big Thanks To You!

[edit]

Hi there! Thanks for correcting my (many) mistakes on Meeting People Is Easy! Sometimes I go through all the info too fast and leave stuff out, so thanks again. One thing that I did notice though... in the citations, you italicised both "San Francisco Chronicle" and "Entertainment Weekly", but not the other publishers' names, like Rotten Tomatoes or Independent Film Channel. Why is that? I'm just curious, is all :)

Next I'll be working on The Most Gigantic Lying Mouth of All Time, and then In Rainbows - From the Basement. I'd love it if you read over the articles after I'm done with them! TheTwoRoads (talk) 22:58, 17 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. The italicisation is as prescribed by the Wikipedia Manual of Style: newspaper and magazine names are among the things that should be italicised; television channel, publishing group and website names are not. There's some grey area here, as certain websites are referred to as "magazines". If in doubt when editing, check the Wikipedia article on the subject to see whether it's italicised there!
I'll take a look at the two articles you mention when I get the chance, which will probably be later today :) –CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 10:34, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Re: Natalia Vodianova

[edit]

US v. UK spelling - I don't care actually. I suggest U.S. spelling since that is currently the largest English language audience. Your call, I'll respect your choice.

the Cite Web tag for |work - This article cites websites primarily, not printed publications. Although I understand what you are doing with the work tag, it is not appropriate to list the work as "Forbes" or "New York" magazine because that indicates the printed edition of Forbes or New York, neither of which are a source of the citations. Since no Wikipedia article exists for the online versions of most of these publications, I support linking to the wikipedia article for the printed version. At any rate, the cite web tag means to cite the online work. If you want to cite the printed publication, then you need to get an actual printed copy and create a proper citation for printed media.

The Cite Web tag for |publisher - The work and the publisher are not interchangeable. The work is the larger body of which the article is a part, so forbes.com, nymag.com, etc. The publisher is the legal owner of the intellectual property that is being published (the copyright holder), for example Forbes.com LLC or NYMag.com. In the offline world, that might be, for example, |work=Moby Dick |publisher=Little, Brown and Co.

I am using as references:

Wikipedia:Cite Web http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Cite_web Wikipedia:Citing_sources http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Citing_sources

If you believe differently or would like me to elaborate I am happy to discuss this further.

Ch Th Jo (talk) 18:52, 29 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]


Thanks for the comments on my talk page. The comments below respond to your comments there. (The above was written before reading your comments.)

Regarding work v. publisher - The reference you sent me to includes the following text - "Usually you use one or the other, though sometimes you may use both if the company that publishes a periodical is different from the work itself." That statement seems to support the citations I have created in many cases since the publisher often is not identical to the title of the work. To expand, CondéNetUK Limited is the legal entity that owns the intellectual property available at vogue.co.uk. Although there are times that the publisher = the work, my experience is that for the most part that is not the case when dealing with large media companies.

Regarding work - The citation you referenced on my talk page doesn't seem too clear about what one should use as the name for the "work". For example - vogue.co.uk? Vogue (UK) website? Forbes.com? Forbes Website? The title that appears at the top of the browser? The page you reference suggests that we avoid re-using the URL, but doesn't get too specific. I am open to your input here.

As I said on your talk page, UK v. US spelling isn't important to me nor per the Wikipedia guidelines you reference. However, you seem to be expressing an -opinion- that metric measurements should precede imperial (whatever the correct term is) because Vodianova is a European living in the UK. I don't agree with that logic. Natalia Vodianova's home (primary) agency is DNA Models in New York. Her primary source of revenue is probably from U.S. based clients. The largest audience for this article is (stastically) in the U.S. and that -is- pertinent. The article isn't written for Natalia, it is written for the users of Wikipedia. At this time, more users access Wikipedia from the U.S. blah, blah, etc. You and I could go 'round and 'round and never hit a definite end point or we can come to a compromise. I am interested in compromise and I'd like to hear your ideas.

Undo - Obviously, we can't stop others from doing whatever they want, but I will hold off on "undoing" the changes under discussion until you and I have had a change to figure out a reasonable course of action. I do have one change to make, but it is the addition of new information and I believe the information itself is a helpful addition and non-controversial from your perspective.

Reviews for Plastic Beach

[edit]

I restored the Slant review on the album's article. It is more analytical and objective than The Times review. While The Times paper may have more clout, the Slant review should also be kept as it shows a balance in the rating template of popular print publications and respected online review sites. There is room for 12 reviews, according to this talk page section, and the Times review can be added with the present ones. but the albums wikiproject page specifies no more than ten reviews, so I am not completely sure what the policy is. But I will add The Times review with another one for Plastic Beach in the ratings template. Dan56 (talk) 19:31, 25 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Fair enough. I'd argue, though, that music reviews are subjective by nature; people won't be looking at the reviews section on a Wikipedia album article to find out more objective information about an album. Putting Slant aside, it wasn't clear at all why you'd removed the Times review and replaced it with the New York Times one, so an explanation in the edit note would have been helpful. Thanks. –CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 09:04, 26 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Archiving

[edit]

You may not be doing this any more, and if so ignore this, but you shouldn't just delete stuff from Talk: pages; please archive anything you remove - the search function doesn't look in histories. Noel (talk) 21:54, 2 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm aware that the search function doesn't cover page histories, but I removed those discussions without archiving them because they didn't really belong on the talk page anyway. That particular talk page was attracting a lot of comments along the lines of "Hey, [historical figure] should be higher on the list!!!", which are totally missing the point of an article talk page and treating it as a general forum. I suspected that the fact that there were already a lot of comments of this nature on the talk page was encouraging further users to add similar comments, so that's what motivated the removal. I don't really see any value in retaining these discussions in an archive page as they are raising users' issues with the subject itself rather than the article, but I have no objection to it either. –CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 09:53, 3 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]
I agree that they were just flame-bait on the talk page, and diking them from there was a Good Thing.
It's just that I get nervous when people decide to 'edit' content out of talk pages - you might have a plausible case in this particular case, but the road to Hell is paved with good intentions, and it's a bad precedent to set because someone else might then decide to edit out something for slightly less good reasons; repeat a few times (with slightly poorer rationale each time) and we're in troubled waters.... Noel (talk) 16:52, 31 May 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for U.K. spelling info

[edit]

Here I thought I had most of my U.K. spelling down pretty well. Now I have another one to keep in my head (I'm forever reverting to U.K. spellings for British film articles when my fellow Americans think they are fixing things). =) I'm idly curious though; I frequent many skeptic blogs and websites myself - several of which are from the U.K. - and have never seen that spelling before. Is it common for those in the skeptic movement itself to use the "k" spelling for some reason? Like I said, just curious (if you happen to know). Millahnna (mouse)talk 22:08, 5 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm afraid I can't offer you a useful answer as I just don't know! It could well be that it's the preferred spelling among the s(c/k)eptic community for whatever reason – perhaps the influence of The Skeptic (although their website seems to use sceptic when not referring to the magazine itself). It may even be the case that the sk- spelling is supplanting the sc- spelling in general UK usage, but quick Google searches for the two different spellings on the sites of a few major UK newspapers suggest otherwise. –CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 13:25, 6 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]
You are so sweet for looking to find out. I just found this which seems to be an answer for that particular organization. Thought I'd toss it your way in case you run across this in the future. Based on that answer, I'd venture a guess that there will be times when the American spelling will be appropriate for a U.K. based article (though my edit was not one of them). Again, thanks for the info. Happy editing! Millahnna (mouse)talk 02:42, 7 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

HVD edits

[edit]

In your edits to Holographic Versatile Disc, you appear to be in violation of Wikipedia:RETAIN#Retaining_the_existing_variety. That policy states that once the dialect of English used in an article has been established, it shouldn't be changed. Given that the article uses American English throughout — and has for years — changing "Aluminum" to "Aluminium" is not warranted. Gopher65talk 03:41, 17 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The earliest revisions used the spelling "aluminium", and it was that way for years. –CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 12:47, 17 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
They did. If you look at the revision that changed it to "aluminum", the summary said something like "changing to American spelling for consistency". This alluded to the fact that the rest of the article was already using American spellings, and just that one word was using the British spelling. Articles are suppose to be consistent throughout; they aren't suppose to use a hodgepodge of spellings from different areas. Gopher65talk 23:28, 17 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Right, but the first version that used "aluminium" didn't use a mix of spellings; that was (as far as I can see) the only word of variable spelling in the article at that point, so subsequent edits should have used British spelling for consistency. –CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 09:51, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Assuming that you're correct (and I don't concede the point, I'm just too lazy to go through 5 years of revision histories to find the first major edit), I find it rude that you would go and change the spelling of an article that was standardized to a different spelling 3 years ago. Gopher65talk 23:44, 18 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry you feel that way; it's not my intention to antagonise anyone. Also, thank you for moderating your comment. –CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 09:39, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Alex Rutterford's "Eutow" video

[edit]

Hi. I've just found something rather interesting on the article for Autechre's Gantz Graf. It says that Alex Rutterford, creator of the Gantz Graf music video, had previously created an unofficial video for the Tri Repetae track "Eutow" as part of the Channel 4 music programme Lo-Fi in 2001.

I couldn't find any other sources mentioning this, so I searched the article history to find who had written it. It turns out you could help me a lot. I understand you made this edit more than five years ago, but could you give me any more information? Eutow is one of my favourite Autechre tracks, and I would love to see a music video for it. Keshidragon (talk) 07:45, 24 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hi. Lo-Fi was a late-night show broadcast, if I recall correctly, in early 2001. Each episode comprised a few low-budget music videos, with each video introduced by its director. Rutterford's "Eutow" clip was rather minimalistic, consisting of seemingly abstract green CG motion graphics against a black background. I would probably struggle to describe it anyway, but the fact that I haven't seen it in over a decade doesn't help! One thing I do remember is that the version of the track used for the video was noticeably shorter than the one on Tri Repetae.
I did have the relevant episode of Lo-Fi on VHS, but I have no idea where the tape is now. If I do ever find it and make a digital copy, I'll be sure to let you know. If you're really keen to see it, a better bet may be to try to get in contact with Alex Rutterford himself and ask whether he might make the video available on the web. You never know! –CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 19:08, 26 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:08, 1 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mantis

[edit]

Hello. You took out mantii and added mantes in the beginning. Isn't mantes French? Happy1892 (talk) 17:54, 26 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mantes is an acceptable plural for mantis in English: see Merriam-Webster ("plural man·tis·es also man·tes") or The Free Dictionary ("A plural of mantis"). Compare with axis being pluralised axes. The French plural mantes does happen to be spelt the same, albeit pronounced very differently.
I don't know where you got "mantii" from, but I assume it's by analogy with words such as radius (plural radii). Note, however, that radius ends with -ius rather than -is unlike mantis – it's a case of us being replaced by i in the plural rather than is being replaced by ii. –CapitalLetterBeginning (talk) 11:38, 27 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
