Please do not replace Wikipedia pages with blank content, as you did to No Return. Blank pages are harmful to Wikipedia because they have a tendency to confuse readers. If it is a duplicate article, please redirect it to an appropriate existing page. If the page has been vandalized, please revert it to the last legitimate version. If you feel that the content of a page is inappropriate, please edit the page and replace it with appropriate content. If you believe there is no hope for the page, please see the deletion policy for how to proceed.   — Jeff G. (talk|contribs) 02:23, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

Christgau reviews

Hi there. Please only add Christgau review links when there is actually a review present. For example on the link you added here the "review" consisted solely of the album title and a bomb sign. This is neither informative nor educational for readers and suggests that the reviewer hasn't invested a suitable amount of time in appraising the stated album. Please only add substantial reviews. Thank you. Sillyfolkboy (talk) (edits)^{Calling All Athletics Fans!} 02:30, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

That does nothing to disprove my point. If Christgau has not expanded on why he has come to this decision then this is merely an act of journalistic sloth. If an album is so bad then it's worth explaining to others its merits or lack thereof. I've seen Christgau's guide before and it doesn't bode well that such a large proportion of his "reviews" consist of an icon and nothing more. It may be humorous for him and his readers but Wikipedia links must be informative: please read WP:External links for more information. Thank you.

I raised exactly the same point with User talk:JPayneSmith a few months ago regarding that album. Very odd... Sillyfolkboy (talk) (edits)^{Calling All Athletics Fans!} 02:58, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Well nothing is universally praised really... Not even evolution, a spherical earth, being nice to your grandmother - some people will always go against the grain. I'd be happy to add a negative review if it was a substantial review of a professional standard. That is not the case here. While it's important to show the other side of the coin, it's also important not to emphasise minority views. Sillyfolkboy (talk) (edits)^{Calling All Athletics Fans!} 03:16, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

I gots to say Sillyfolkboy, o housemate of mine, that I disagree with you in this instance. The review was the bomb sign. It may not be substantiative, witty, original, funny or representative, but by removing the link (of which there are many to Christgau reviews strewn across wiki) you are essentially making a comment as to what constitutes a valid review or not. It reflects a source (check the Christgau site out, wherein he devotes the time to review a good many thousand of albums) and was referenced correctly. --sevendaughters 13:15, 22 July 2009 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sevendaughters (talk • contribs)

re your edits to Steven Severin

I note that you have wikilinked Severins solo albums - however, two of the links are dead and the others point to articles or disambiguation pages which make no mention of the Severin records. Are you intending to make the necessary edits? LessHeard vanU (talk) 20:19, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Your subsequent edits are answer enough. Cheers, LessHeard vanU (talk) 22:33, 16 May 2009 (UTC)
