Talk:Nautilus Pompilius (band)

Page contents not supported in other languages.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit]

At the moment, putting "nautilus pompilius" into the search field seems to lead to a page on a snail, with no disambiguation. After I have reached this page from a link, putting the same thing in the search field now opens this page, once again with no disambiguation. Not sure how to fix this.

I fixed it with the template {{redirect}}. See what i did at Chambered Nautilus.
Thanks for spotting this! --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 12:46, 4 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Expanding the article

[edit]

...So anyone want to try and expand this article a bit :P I was going to start with a history section. But the question I have is regarding the source. The only good source for this that I know is the (old) official page [1] but it's in Russian. What is the WP policy on that? Should I just translate the bits and pieces from the official history, and then just add it as a source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by PolkovnikKGB (talkcontribs)

A source in Russian is OK, because there are enough people on Wikipedia who can verify it. (Me, for example.)
A word-for-word translation is a problem, even if it's only parts of the original, because it's a copyright violation. If you write something by yourself, based on that source, then it will be OK. --Amir E. Aharoni (talk) 09:16, 6 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Article from ruwiki isn't so bad, so why don't you take it to translate? 87.224.249.18 (talk) 12:41, 24 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Songs name translation

[edit]

As far as I know "the river shores" are "banks" in English.Wouldn't it better to translate the song name "On the shore of the nameless river" as "On the banks of the nameless river"? Vitaska (talk) 17:40, 29 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Shore" is fine when referring to the sides of a river. If you want to get really nit-picky, shores are flat and banks are raised. 122.111.194.130 (talk) 07:39, 3 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sergey Lukyanenko's books?

[edit]

I found out about this band through his Watch series -- given that the books have been translated into English and given a film treatment, I'd argue that this reference is worth including. Miscellanium (talk) 19:46, 12 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Breves vibrantesque sententiae

[edit]

English version is much more better, than russian article. Why? Breves vibrantesque sententiae Or: Brevity is the soul of wit!
