Speedy deletion of Axamenta
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/1/15/Ambox_warning_pn.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_pn.svg.png)
A tag has been placed on Axamenta requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about a band or musician, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, as well as our subject-specific notability guideline for musical topics.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hangon}}
to the top of the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion or "db" tag), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the article meets the criterion it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. Lastly, please note that if the article does get deleted, you can contact one of these admins to request that they userfy the article or have a copy emailed to you.

Hello, and welcome to Wikipedia! I noticed that you recently added a {{hangon}} template to an article. In order for an administrator to evaluate whether the article should be speedy deleted or not, we request that you provide reasoning, on the article's talk page, for why it should remain. Thank you. Terrillja talk 06:10, 1 January 2009 (UTC)
Sourcing
Hi Backtable, I see that you are interested in music articles, but you may not be very familiar with our sourcing guidelines. One of the core policies on Wikipedia is verifiability, and I noticed that you have provided some sources. However, sources need to be reliable and independent. Myspace is not considered a good source. For the most part, neither are blogs or websites. Sources should be independent of the topic (so anything the band puts out is not a great source to establish notability, and neither is anything their label says about them). Hopefully, you can find newspaper, magazine, or book sources to augment the Myspace. If you have any questions, feel free to ask on my talk page. Karanacs (talk) 18:06, 2 January 2009 (UTC)

Proposed deletion of Mariusz Duda
![](http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/thumb/7/74/Ambox_warning_yellow.svg/48px-Ambox_warning_yellow.svg.png)
A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Mariusz Duda, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process because of the following concern:
- WP:BIO, tagged since 9/07 w/o improvement. Nothing here encyclopedic independent of existing Riverside article.
All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised because, even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached.

Sanctus Ignis tracklist
I have added the missing track length to the best of my ability and divided the versions, but I'm at a bit of a loss at this point for how many versions there actually are. Niflheim is listed as a demo/bonus track, but I haven't actually seen a version without it. On Musicbrainz, there are 3 versions listed, one with no demo/bonus, one with only the Niflheim demo, and one with the Stringless Violin demo as well, while the Japanese version is ostensibly missing. Arrgh! Anyway, do you see any other changes which need to be made? 128.61.56.41 (talk) 16:24, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

Thanks
I'd just like to personally thank you for fixing up the Statik Majik page. I've created several pages before, but as you can imagine this one was kinda hard to do. Hey, I took a look at your user page and saw that Cathedral (band) were one of your bands so maybe you'd know a few more websites that could help expand the page??!! Also, a picture of the album cover would be good too. I'd do it myself but my knowledge with pictures on Wikipedia is not the best. Thanks again. --Sky Attacker (talk) 02:58, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
My edits
I just thought I'd ask politely, some of your edit summaries following edits I've made (Trail of Tears albums) seem a little sarcastic. I do apologize if edit summaries I've made seem obvious, we know YOU know Wiki isn't for random reviews but I made the effort to make it clear to the user who put the thing there; they might just be new, as it's unlikely a troll would bother finding an entire review to plop into an album article. So it's not very constructive to take the piss. If on the other hand I've misunderstood the situation and there IS a problem with any edits I've made (such as might merit a 'Geez'), I am sorry and I'll do my best to improve the quality of what I'm doing as I'm still getting the hang of Wiki, and would like to stay friendly with people who could give me any advice. Thanks, Joncheetham88 (talk) 19:17, 22 April 2009 (UTC)
- Thanks for your response :) No problem mate, look forward to putting together some more metal-related articles in the future! Joncheetham88 (talk) 09:06, 23 April 2009 (UTC)
Single infoboxes that have the song length instead of the total single length
These are all singles by artists you know. Also, see this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Infobox_Single
The three examples all use song length. One of them even separates single version / album version length. Now please stop reverting my edit on the Being Everyone single page. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Onno 91 (talk • contribs) 20:04, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
'Weasel Words' Rule in Black Clouds & Silver Linings: Reception
Just thought I'd comment on the back-and-forth you've been having with "71.109.231.67" in regards to the line "Currently, the album has received positive reviews." In your most recent deletion of that line, you cited the weasel words rule as your motive. I was just curious as to your reasoning in saying that. As I understand it, that rule prohibits "words or phrases that seemingly support statements without attributing opinions to verifiable sources" (from the weasel words guideline article). He backed up the statement "Currently, the album has received positive reviews" with positive reviews from Allmusic and from Rich Wilson's article for Metal Hammer. Considering the reviews the album has received so far, do you disagree that the current state of Reception is 'positive?' Do you think he's generalizing too much from these early reviews? I'd like to know what you think about this. You seem knowledgeable, and I'm new to Wikipedia and still trying to figure some of this stuff out. Thanks! --Granedit (talk) 00:13, 9 June 2009 (UTC)

Hey, thanks dude. You've been doing great with it as well. I've been kind of busy lately, but when I get a chance hopefully we can start expanding the article to eventually get it up to a WP:GA. blackngold29 04:28, 29 June 2009 (UTC)
Obzen's album reception
hello there,
Regarding the obzen edit that I did yesterday, I just want to point out that I was only interested in adding some opinions from the trustworthy Metal critics like Terrorizer, Decibel & ZT magazines, since those three magazines are considered the big 3 in the Metal community.
As far as weasels go, the article already stated that the album received generally positive reviews and I was only extending on that fact. I would love to provide some sources for my claims but those lines and reviews that I provided came from "printed" magazines and not online resources. However, I have a link to the Decibel review but that link doesn't show the line that I put in the article, do you think that adding the link as a reference would make a difference ?
And about the fact that the album has been included in a lot of year's end lists I will be more than happy to provide links.
I've been involved in the Metal scene for more than 10 years, I've written for a number of Metal sites, fanzines and blogs and I've also edited a few pages here but I just recently got an account, its good to see a Metal fan like yourself here since Wikipedia has been plagued with a lot of incorrect information as far as Metal goes.
Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Metal munther (talk • contribs) 21:32, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Table fixes
Thanks for fixing up the Marins filmography. You can see tables are not my strong point but I wanted to get the article written. Good job. Mjpresson (talk) 21:18, 11 July 2009 (UTC)
RE:This is a question concertning reflist text.
Greets. The number ("2" in this case) determines the number of columns in which the references are arranged. If the text of an avarage reference in that article is short (which it is in 95% cases), you can prevent the blank space that is on the right behind the references and save space in the article by arraging the references into columns. Three or four columns are used usually for articles referenced mostly by books (due to very short references) - for instance Bedřich Smetana. Cheers.-- LYKANTROP ✉ 22:21, 12 July 2009 (UTC)

in regards to the vandalism comment about BC&SL by Dream Theater
i wasnt vandalizing the page, people have been deleting the ratings from the albums of the Dream Theater pages, and the remaining reviews were all low. Its not fair to leave out fair information, so i deleted the mojo rating. It wasnt even a review, it was a compilation of other peoples reviews. Those should be placed in a different area, probably toward the bottom. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.115.156.240 (talk) 04:23, 9 August 2009 (UTC)

Music
Was just looking over some of the bands you listen to. Nice to see another soul who has heard of Nektar, let alone listened to their music. Noticed one band missing from your list that you may like. Between the Buried and Me. Sort of death-metal Opeth meets you're-too-good-on-the-guitar-you-bastard Symphony X. Check out Ants of the Sky and Selkies the Endless Obsession if you fancy.
PS: I've got a bottle of BBQ sauce from a ribfest in my city that's from Naples Florida. It's a place called Bibb's Barbeque I believe. Do they have Bibbs BBQ restaurants there? If so I might have to pack up my life and move to Florida. - ʄɭoʏɗiaɲ τ ¢ 01:27, 2 September 2009 (UTC)

Ok so for about 3 years now I have been tagging nearly every genre article. Recently I have stepped things up a bit and been doing things like this [1], and this [2]. I've been going through and adding citation needed tags,I'm trying not to be to pointy though you could add the tag to every sentence in some articles.
I've also tried being really bold and just removing whole sections of OR, [3] these are normally just reverted and since I'm working alone there's not much I can do about it. Ridernyc (talk) 01:22, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

Howdy, I noticed that you tagged Dov Shurin as too short an intro.

Mellotron Heart
Just posed a question on the Watershed talk page. Not sure that Mellotron Heart qualifies as a single, or warrants an article. Thoughts? 136.181.195.10 (talk) 17:07, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
- Yeah- it was probably best mentioned on the mellotron heart talk page. I definitely agree that it's worth mentioning on the Watershed page. And maybe even an article of its own depending on coverage. But from my understanding, it was never released on its own commercially or to radio, and no video was made, so the single designation doesn't seem quite right. It was included as a promo disc with Watershed, and it was a B-Side on the Burden single. It just doesn't seem to me that it should be listed under "singles." Thanks. 136.181.195.10 (talk) 18:48, 21 December 2009 (UTC)
- Okay- I just did a little thinking about this, after the overwhelming indifference in all applicable pages. Mellotron Heart is the same song as Porcelain Heart. Basically an Opeth cover. So it really should be merged into Porcelain Heart, much like how other cover versions are mentioned in the original song's article. Of course that doesn't really solve answer the category question, but it's something.136.181.195.10 (talk) 14:43, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
