Requested move

The following discussion is archived. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.

According to their official site bio: [1] and many press clippings, their proper name is Nomeansno. I've changed the occurances of NOMEANSNO and No Means No within the article to reflect this already.

support as nominator -Quiddity 18:39, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Agreed. Jkelly 18:40, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Agree and Comment It wasn't blocked and isn't controversial, so I moved it. Redirects still need to be fixed. Kafziel 18:48, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Will do, thanks :-) (i assumed wrongly that moving onto a redirect would be problematic) -Quiddity 18:55, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Glad to be of help. It would have been a problem if the redirect led anywhere but here, or if it had ever been edited more than once. As long as it was set up correctly to point here on the first try and never touched again, the system will allow the move. Happy editing! Kafziel 19:03, 15 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not going to agree or disagree, but the capitalization on their website[2] changed from NoMeansNo on 6/28/06 to NOmeansno on 7/16/06, then went back to NoMeansNo on 7/26/06, and changed again back to NOmeansno on 7/31/06. Also, on 6/21/06, the name was simply Nomeansno. It's really not set in stone as to the "right" way to capitalize the name. -Phillstac3 04:40, 16 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose this move, I would support a move to No Means No (band). Both their official website and their record label's website uses "No Means No". TJ Spyke 22:40, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

January 2009 move

Why was this article moved to No-Means-No without any discussion? The band's name is Nomeansno. This move should be undone. Strobilus (talk) 15:24, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

agreed.--Michig (talk) 17:41, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Very much agreed. The capitalization is debatable (they've used different versions over the years - NoMeansNo seems somewhat consistant to me,) but the use of hyphens is not, as they rarely appear. Colinclarksmith (talk) 17:47, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've requested at Wikipedia:Requested_moves#Uncontroversial_proposals that it be moved back. -- Quiddity (talk) 22:22, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Both their official website and the website of their record label use "No Means No". TJ Spyke 22:40, 15 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Administrator note: I've removed this page from WP:RM as moot. Anyone who wants to move this page should open a new discussion and place a new proposal at WP:RM.--Aervanath (talk) 12:53, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Record label history

I believe the History section is inaccurate. I do not believe it's correct to say that Nomeansno "initially" released records on Alternative Tentacles. From what I have been able to reconstruct, Mama and the two early 7-inches were self-released, Sex Mad was originally released by Psyche Industry, Wrong was originally released on Cargo Records, and You Kill Me was originally released on Undergrowth.

I think it might be more accurate to say something such as: The majority of the Nomeansno catalog was available on the Alternative Tentacles record label at some point, although the band worked with several labels (Cargo Records, Psyche Industry, De Konkurrent, Southern Records, and others) including their own label Wrong Records.

Ehb 23:03, 9 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have no memory of this, but these are my exact initials and this is exactly the sort of comment I would have made so it would appear that I made a comment about 17 years ago regarding the record label history and there has been no updates.

Tonight I did make an edit to the record labels in the banner. I didn't include De KonKurrent or Atomic Recordings which I think were the labels for "In the Fishtank" but they probably should be added. Perhaps in 2041 I'll make those edits. 2601:1C2:1A80:2D00:1128:E890:1F9B:2568 (talk) 05:08, 5 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
