RE: Thanks
editNo problem. A few websites that could be of use for Cathedral (band) related page would be discogs.com, blabbermouth.net, metalunderground.com, metal-rules.com, non-review sections of allmusic.com, any music-related magazine (Kerrang! Decibel, Revolver, among others), and others. As for the photo thing, I'm not really experienced in uploading photos on wikipedia, but I want to be someday. I'll probably bring it to the attention of someone on wikipedia. I hope you have a great time on wikipedia. BacktableSpeak to Meabout what I have done 03:26, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
My reply to your reply
editYou should check official sources this type of debate - for that, Spirit of Metal is nowhere near as reliable compared to Cathedral's then record company, Earache. Here's their catalogue page for Soul Sacrifice (MOSH40): [1]. The track list for that EP is:
- 1. Soul Sacrifice
- 2. Autumn Twilight
- 3. Frozen Rapture
- 4. Golden Blood (Flooding)
So, these three last tracks are not originally from the Statik Majik EP, something that isn't pointed out in the article (but should be).
There's also this release, which might be the reason you are mixing things up: [2]. It is a combinations of both EPs in a single disc, released in 1999... A proof that the original Statik Majik had only four tracks. Musicaindustrial (talk) 22:15, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
- No problem! Keep on doing the good work. Musicaindustrial (talk) 10:10, 14 April 2009 (UTC)
Would?
editHaha. After that edit I was wondering about the centering bit and then forgot it and got caught up with other things. FireCrystal (talk) 01:30, 21 April 2009 (UTC)
Re: 7th Studio Album
editThanks, !voted :-) I've !voted delete, with a comment that the article can be recreated once it has a name confirmed by a WP:RS. Although policy is usually to wait until an album charts, I think that in this case the band are sufficiently notable to have an article on an as-yet unreleased album, but we should at the very least wait until its name is confirmed.
Incidentally, it might be worth removing the {{prod}}-tag while we gather consensus for deleting/keeping - anyone can contest a {{prod}}-tag simply be removing it - the worst that could happen is either someone else re-adds it, or sends the article to articles for deletion (in which case we just shift the debate from the talk page to the AFD page). I wouldn't do either, however, since there's a discussion ongoing about it.

re mexico
editMexico is still the main focus of the outbreak. The reason that the United States is leading in labratory cases (and is where the virus was first detected as a 'new' strain) is that the Untied States excells in labratory testing. Mexicos numbers are low because (1) Mexico is full of Tijuana doctors. (2) The Mexican goverment put a moratorum on releasing new numbers. (3) Mexico shut down most of their cities, its very likely many people with flu like symptoms are staying home trying to ride out the illness on knockoff drugs and home remedies over fears that going to the hospital will put them in contact with sick people. Put hey thats just my opinion. --PigFlu Oink (talk) 23:01, 8 May 2009 (UTC)
Archiving
editMost active editors set up archiving which is done automatically by a bot every 5 or 7 days (per your desire) and moves old content to an archive in case you need to look it up in future. Cheerios. ChildofMidnight (talk) 04:36, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

editHaha, for sure it is. One of the most ridiculous articles I have ever seen. AeonicOmega (talk) 07:50, 15 May 2009 (UTC)
The overmilk's AfD
edit- Hello. Currently The overmilk is nominated for speedy deletion (see the top of the article), so there's no need to bring it to AfD. If the author fails to give a valid reason to keep the article (which is very likely to happen, as the article is pure rubbish), it will be deleted soon. You can leave your opinion on the article's talk page if you feel it's necessary. Regards. --Anna Lincoln (talk) 08:18, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

RE: Mario Semi-Protection Bros.
editHey there! That article is currently the featured article of the day. It is usually discouraged to protect the featured article and it is best to discuss it first.

editJust wondering what this was about. There isn't anything in there that promotes the book. It's more of a hoax or a sideways attack than a spam page. Is there anything in particular that you saw that made you see it as promotional?--Terrillja talk 00:42, 17 May 2009 (UTC)

Re: Remove please
editIm not sure what you're asking. The article name you gave me doesn't exist. The article apparently has never existed as there is no deletion log. And if you are asking me to delete it, you're asking the wrong person. Administrators are the only ones who can delete an article, and I'm not an admin. Anyone can, however, post a deletion template, which will bring it to the admin's attention. Note, there are three different types of deletion tags, AfD, prod, and speedy delete.

If the user has been indef blocked, you can also just replace the contents of their talk and user page with {{indef}}. That has tended to get people to move on most of the time IME.--Terrillja talk 05:52, 18 May 2009 (UTC)

On WIki v. Off Wiki
editAs far as I know, I've never met anyone here off wiki. I also don't use e-mail and am not in communication with anyone here outside of Wikipedia. At some point I may decide it's worth responding to e-mails. But life is complicated enough communicating on Wikipedia and I like the idea of everything I do here being out in the open. Cheers.

hey vandalism fighter,
editI filed a report on a BLP violation that you've been active with also, see [4]. BTW, I do feel the need to chastise you for belitting the importance of the colors of doors. If it were the color of pills, and you were in The Matrix, you would feel differently, wouldn't you? Well, do you know for sure you're not in The Matrix now? Ha!

No article allowed?
editHi Sky Attacher, Just wondering why you deleted my article. For users in the german section of wiki, prinz should obviously redirect/bring up pages 'princes' but for english, I don't believe a redirect is needed. Obviously this is a small article at this stage but I will be elaborating on it over the next few days with photos, gigography, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Lukemunn (talk • contribs) 10:03, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

ChildofMidnight, you'd do well not to delete well-sourced, non-contentious material from an article purely because I added it as you did here[5]. --Johnnyturk888 (talk) 15:46, 13 June 2009 (UTC)

Communication
editHi
I spent the whole day writing on COMMUNICATION
I understand someone is functoning as a gatekeeper of wiki but currently we have on wiki this ancient stuff about encoder and decoder, Communication 1 Primary School texbook 1951. Please help me and tell me about the process by which we can CHANGE that primary school text from 1951 to something more modern?
So in short - what will happen to my article and will it have an impact and therefore WHY I DID BOTHER?
I guess many of us have ths question
Thnak you cheers :-)

Hey
editHey, Sky Attacker. First let me say that I did not intend to overwrite the previous user's edit when I made this change. I simply wanted to add information to the previous version. Second, as an inexperienced Wikipedia user, I would like to appeal to you that, as a matter of fact, this law is by and large unenforced (with the exception of a highly publicized instance in Jackson, MS, I believe). I live in Starkville, MS, and I can say for a fact that Fantasy Land in Columbus, MS has sold sex toys for years without interference. While it would be difficult to compile a full and accurate list of adult stores in Mississippi with their history regarding state interference, a quick google will at least show that a large number of them in operation. I'm not sure that there has ever been an actual prosecution regarding this law, so I believe that it should be mentioned in the article that the law is largely unenforced. It would be inaccurate to imply otherwise. I only wish for an accurate representation of the reality, and I think the paragraph is misleading as is. Dbb49 (talk) 20:51, 14 June 2009 (UTC)
A friendly nod
editI must say that I much admire you and others like you for taking on this immense responsibility of anti-vandalizing Wikipedia. Keep it up. (Although you do ruin a fun night of ridiculing Twilight.)

"electronic rock" not in the intro
editskyattacker i thought we had discussed this "electronic rock" genre. its ok to have it among the list of genres (and its there!).....but not as main descriptor in the Intro! they were not always "electronic rock". listen to speak&spell, a broken frame, construction time again, violator etc etc...."electronic rock" only applies to some of their latest work ( some tracks from 93 on). how would "electronic rock" fit with tunes like "Get the balance Right", "Just can't get enough", "everything counts","world in my eyes", "halo" etc etc? (theres no rock elements in those). the main genre that would represent better their career is "synthpop"....but "electronic" is probably even better as its even more generic. personally i would just have "music band" in the intro.....but "electronic" is acceptable as its the common denominator of these 30 years of depeche mode music. regardsSequencer10 (talk) 11:15, 28 June 2009 (UTC)
