No need to worry edit

I find it more likely that the source it thinks I copied from was actually copied from Wikipedia, not the other way around. Contributors other websites, even those not explicitly said to be Wikipedia mirrors, tend to do stuff like that 'cause they're lazy ;P LazyBastardGuy 17:44, 16 December 2013 (UTC)Reply

Bit taken from former Live at Roadburn article edit

[Note* 'Live at Roadburn' is the name of a series of releases of different artists performing live at the Roadburn festival. Each album is simply called 'Live at Roadburn' merely the artist in question varies. Other artists to have released 'Live at Roadburn' albums include Ulver and White Hills. Citation will be required to establish whether these are the only three releases under that name to date (11/09/13) (http://www.roadburnrecords.com/2011/01/14/roadburn-records-releases-and-release-schedule/). As the festival continues, it is likely further albums with the name will be released.]

What's missing edit

Lead paragraph

A lot. A brief summary of their history as a band is required, focusing mainly on releasing material (in other words, their history as a band rewritten to emphasize the work they've released as opposed to the other details given equal weight on their main article, like touring). That'll have to wait until I've actually finished with the main article, though. An overall critical reaction to their work as a whole would be nice as well, summarizing the opinions gathered in the sections below.

Sonic Prayer

More reviews from reliable sources would be nice.

Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky

Could probably use some condensing and boiling-down of what's already there, plus I'd like for info on the material itself (song titles, choice of "Cherry Red" as a cover and probably their first song to include vocals, etc.).

Live at Roadburn

Only thing I can see here is more critical reaction. I had to remove a review that went offline and didn't appear to be worthy of inclusion anyway, but I'll see if I can scrape-up a few more.

From the Ages

Decent section on songs, but I need stuff like on the recording process and critical reception.

I think the sections follow a pattern of describing album data, such as release date, label and the date & location of recording sessions; the material on the album; and then critical reaction. That's a nice pattern to keep to. I'll stick to that. LazyBastardGuy 17:11, 5 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

What's missing (UPDATE 18:51, 19 January 2014 (UTC)) edit

Lead paragraph

Redone a lot to look like that of Nirvana discography. Maybe still missing a few things, but I did my best to use only material that's already cited in the article so we wouldn't need citations up there.

Sonic Prayer

Can't find more reviews. Touring & promotion are missing.

Rhythms from a Cosmic Sky

Not much has changed here. Issues from before are still there. Touring & promotion are missing.

Live at Roadburn

Maybe a couple more reviews would be nice, but it's come a long way already. As far as a live album section for this article goes, this section is probably done. Maybe I could add something on touring & promoting, but I don't suppose that's entirely necessary for a live album. I'll see what I can find.

From the Ages

This one has come a loooong way. I'd rather not split it into its own article yet because as its own article it's still rather short, too short to be all that satisfactory (even though I've said literally everything I could find about it), but if I find it's necessary I will. This section seems to be pretty much done for the purposes of this article, though one thing I would like to see is when the album was recorded. We already have the where, now we need the when. It's the only thing missing so far as I can see, though.

That's all I can see for now. Cheers! LazyBastardGuy

I suppose now there's nothing else I can do. I've used literally everything I could find in this article. The only thing to do now is wait for another source to pop-up. I might scan Google Books for usable print sources, but in the meantime this is done until a new article gets released. LazyBastardGuy 04:14, 26 January 2014 (UTC)Reply

From the Ages edit

I've now expanded this section into its own article and placed it where the redirect to the section once existed:

From the Ages

In its place here is a truncated version of the lead paragraph (lacking sources as I feel they would not be necessary here; anyone can click through to the main article link I've now put in that section to see the sources backing everything up, although if this is against policy or guidelines I will happily amend it).
