The 2 new System of a Down albums

Hello, Mr. Hate. Sorry I had to apologized for your reverting changes, but really Hypnotize is first and Mezmerize is last. See for yourself: [1] and [2]. Right now there should be a better idea that you wait until you see what happens. OK. Feel free to talk to me about this. -- Mike Garcia | talk 00:46, 26 Feb 2005 (UTC)

Hi Mike. Do you have any other sources you can cite? The one you provided doesn't seem very reliable, and as I pointed out earlier, there's several articles on http://www.systemofadownonline.com/ that state that Mesmerize is first. Adding to this, I have a magazine that features an advertisement for Mesmerize with the April release dates. Unless you can come up with another source, please revert your changes. MrHate 02:10, Mar 1, 2005 (UTC)

Please Understand

I'm so sorry, MrHate. But, I'm afraid you're information is wrong and I'm not trying to accuse you. You may have not looked at the websites I linked, that's where they have the accurate information. OK. Also, I will not stop reverting you and there's nothing you're gonna do about it, how'ya gonna stop me? You're just like some IP address users. -- Mike Garcia | talk 03:12, 3 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hi, I have protected the pages in question until I can look into and resolve the issue. That will likely be on Saturday. Please be patient with me on this. Mike has been doing some wonderful music work recently, and I want to get some more information. Thanks. Danny 02:47, 4 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Slipknot (band)

I have no idea what's going on in the article (I care not about the band) but I enforced the style manual and your blanket revert undid my work.

Thanks

Hey, good work on System of a Down and other music-related articles lately. By the way, are you a bassist? :-) Nadavspi | talk 03:49, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hey, thanks a lot! And thanks for helping out with the whole Mezmerize/Hypnotize thing. And yep, I am a bassist :) MrHate 03:53, Mar 8, 2005 (UTC)

Cool. I figured, as you have a section about bassists on your userpage ;-) Always nice to see a fellow low end guy. Nadavspi | talk 03:58, 8 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Smashing Pumpkins

Hi MrHate,

I noticed the image you uploaded, Image:SmashingPumpkins-MCISera.jpg. It's great to have a picture at The Smashing Pumpkins; thanks! I have one question: you've tagged it as {{pd}}. But where did the picture come from? Are you the photographer!? Otherwise, do you have some reason to think it's really public domain?

Thanks, dbenbenn | talk 14:10, 10 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hey there. To be honest, I only put the {{pd}} tag in temporarily until I could think of what it should be tagged with. The picture is from a promo shoot for MCIS, but no I'm not the photographer. Do you have any suggestions on a tag? I'm relatively new to using images on Wikipedia MrHate 00:39, Mar 11, 2005 (UTC)

Mike Garcia and your AMA Request

Hi, I'm Wally, an advocate for the AMA. We recently received your request for assistance regarding the System of a Down album controversy. You might be interested to know that the user about whom you lodge the complaint, User:Mike Garcia, has another complaint against him lodged with us, this time regarding the band Ned's Atomic Dustbin. This user is something of a special case, and therefore I referred the last case, and do so this one, to User:Guanaco, who has a special responsibility for assuring that Mike Garcia adheres to the terms of his ArbCom ruling. I hope that by discussing it with he and Mike Garcia resolution can be reached. I've already alerted User:Guanaco, and am going to do so for User:Mike Garcia, that if any further complaint are received against him that it will be necessary to seek an injunction from Wikipedia's Arbitration Committee. If you have any further questions, please do not hesistate to contact me. Wally 23:56, 23 Mar 2005 (UTC)

I wonder, have you had any further difficulties since posting your request for assistance, or is the situation resolved? Wally 02:52, 27 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Hi Wally. I had a lot of trouble with the user User:Mike Garcia, but due to both of us seeking assistance, a third party found me to be correct and his edits to be wrong. He accepted the decision and I have not had any further encounters with the user, although I do think the comments he made during the conflict were way out of line (see my talk page) and do think he needs to be monitored closely. Thanks very much for your help in this situation :) MrHate 15:13, Mar 28, 2005 (UTC)

grindcore/ noisecore edit

i edited the noisecore part of grindcore to add DETP which u disargreed. i cut this from the mathcore section of wikipedia : "Mathcore, also known as math metal, noisecore, tech hardcore, or chaotic hardcore, " i thought DETP was noiscore and according to this definition it is. also what do u think on my thoughts for futher edits regarding the future of grindcore and the ommision of nasum, discordance axis and pig destroyer in the article. omitting these bands is like omitting nile in the death metal article. u can put ur comments under my discussion. thanks for ur attention.

Dillinger (TDEP, not DETP :)) are indeed mathcore. However, mathcore and noisecore are direct opposites. I'll edit the mathcore article to reflect this. Mathcore is a precise and complex form of extreme music, closely related to grindcore. Noisecore is simply that... noise. Usually just playing random notes as fast as possible :) As to your other question, I'm not familiar with Nasum and Discordant Axis but in my opinion, Pig Destroyer are probably the leaders in grind at the moment and should definately have a mention on the page. MrHate 08:08, Jun 12, 2005 (UTC)

thanks for ur time. ur a credit to wikepedia. if ur a grind core fan u must check out discordance axis and nasum.

discordance axis sounds like old napalm death meets noiscore/alternative (once again i may have misused the term noisecore) with a touch of sonic youth. (napalm death themselves r influenced a little by sonic youth. i asked jesse and mitch of ND in person over a beer and more in their tour bus confirming what i read in a magazine.) it features david witte as a drummer who i believe was in human remains (an awesome new york style DM with an avant garde touch and unwordly guitar sounds) and burnt by the sun (a notable noise core [i think. once again i may have misused this term] band from relapse records.) but the music is totally different. their best album is named "the inalienable dreamless." like pig destroyer they dont have a bass player, unfortunately. but u will hardly notice this like in pig destroyer. i myself just heard the band recently and i was shocked to have almost overlooked them. i guess i must have missed them as i am primarily a death metal head and the music is quite un-metallic and artsy although intense as any other grindcore band. they sound nothing like any other band and i saw a review that said they, nasum and pig destroyer r the future of grindcore. anyways here is link with a review and a sound sample link - http://www.metal-observer.com/articles.php?lid=1&sid=1&id=7274

http://www.studio-grey.com/da/sound.html (the band's site. one of the members is some kind of artist or something working one something else. also their whole album was remixed by noise artists Merzbow but that is offline currently)

nasum unfortanetly lost a member in the tsunami. there sound is swedish death metal meets grindcore. very melodic and have great song structure for grind core. u may be able to in a way say they also have a touch of napalm death's progressive style much like discordance axis. however they sound more metallic than DA. they have four albums. the first is more grindy and more typical of grind core but original (inhale/exhale.) the 2nd has a very progressive sound. the 3rd and 4th r very easy to get into and r extremely melodic for grind. also i heard there is a whole swedish grind core scene. do u know anything about this?? (i guess if u did u would have definately heard nasum. it would be like knowing about thrash without having heard metallica or slayer.) they do have a video on yahoo videos from the nu album. u can download some songs at their site:

http://www.nasum.com/

i feel since u r a frequent editor of the grindcore article it is essential u listen to these 2 bands. i am not saying they r as influential or as important as napalm death or carcass or brutal truth but they r important in the future of grindcore and its progression. (well maybe it is a mistatement as nasum and DA r i think no longer making any new cds.) if u have any questions email me at sanjayadhia@yahoo.com . u can chat as well with me as i want to know more about mathcore and noisecore. also if u r interested check out my edits to the death metal article. (there was no mention of florida and NY death metal!!) i would like some feed back. thanks again for ur time.

This picture is totally legit to use, we just need to find out where you got it from. Can you let us know ASAP? That way they are not deleted, and we can keep them on The Smashing Pumpkins page. Thanks. -- Reaper X 16:33, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

Image:StrappingYoungLad.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:StrappingYoungLad.jpg. I notice the 'image' page specifies that the image is being used under fair use, but its use in Wikipedia articles fails our first fair use criterion in that it illustrates a subject for which a freely licensed image could reasonably be found or created. If you believe this image is not replaceable, please:

Go to the image description page and edit it to add {{Replaceable fair use disputed}}, without deleting the original Replaceable fair use template.
On the image discussion page, write the reason why this image is not replaceable at all.

Alternatively, you can also choose to replace the fair use image by finding a freely licensed image of its subject or by taking a picture of it yourself.

If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified how these images fully satisfy our fair use criteria. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on this link. Note that any fair use images which are replaceable by free-licensed alternatives will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
