Project Template

{{WikiProject Punk music}} has gone haywire. All that appears is: Template:WPBannerMeta minge. Anyone know what is wrong? benzband (talk) 06:05, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

 Fixed I have reverted an IP edit identified as vandalism. The template works again. benzband (talk) 06:09, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
I protected the template. You must not know your british slang :P --Guerillero | My Talk 06:14, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
Lol. You're right. If i had i might have warned him for Vandalism instead of just Test-editing. And thanks for protecting it. benzband (talk) 18:04, 9 January 2012 (UTC)

Protected Page

Just a heads up, List of punk rock bands, 0–K is locked from editing for a week due to User:Astrotube's persistent vandalism.Jasper420 19:57, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

Did you consider warning him on his talk page? benzband (talk) 20:05, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
I did, until I realized I was late for class. Anyways, I'm sure he'll have long forgotten in a weeks time.Jasper420 01:46, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
Okey. i suppose you're right :) benzband (talk) 18:15, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
311? A punk rock band? You've got to be kidding. --IllaZilla (talk) 18:30, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
I've got to admit i don't even know the band so i can't be of any help there. benzband (talk) 18:56, 24 January 2012 (UTC)
Well, there were links on the pages to articles describing them as a punk band, among other genres, but I see he's gone and removed them too. I should probably fix that.... On the other hand, the admin who protected the page did accuse me of edit warring and threatened to block, so I may just lay low a bit. But I will never let a vandal win.Jasper420 03:38, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Book

Hi, i have a problem at Book:Punk rock as in some cases i don't really know which genres should go in "sub-genres" and which in "derivative genres". Could someone please take a look? Thanks, benzband (talk) 07:13, 27 January 2012 (UTC)

A quick look would say that the post and core genres should go in derivatives, as well as perhaps No Wave and noise rock.Jasper420 19:48, 27 January 2012 (UTC)
 Done thanks for the advice :) benzband (talk) 20:30, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

WikiWomen's History Month

Hi everyone. March is Women's History Month and I'm hoping a few folks here at WP:Punk music will have interest in putting on events related to women's roles in punk rock: as singers, musicians, bands, writers, promoters. We've created an event page on English Wikipedia (please translate!) and I hope you'll find the inspiration to participate. These events can take place off wiki, like edit-a-thons, or on wiki, such as themes and translations. Please visit the page here: WikiWomen's History Month. Thanks for your consideration and I look forward to seeing events take place! SarahStierch (talk) 19:10, 1 February 2012 (UTC)

Interesting. Riot Grrrl anyone? Bikini Kill needs lots of work and sources are plentiful and fairly low hanging. --Guerillero | My Talk 20:01, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
I don't really get what's to be done then… benzband (talk) 16:01, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
Back in the day there was a Punk music Collaboration of the month I was suggesting that we bring it back and work on Bikini Kill as part of SarahStierch's project. She is an editor who I respect a ton and would love to help out. (Did you know...that she was the organizer of Fugazi shows in Indianapolis?) --Guerillero | My Talk 19:31, 18 February 2012 (UTC)
Ok. Well by then maybe we can get the monthly collaboration up and going again? Apparently the current month has been lasting since 2009, which does seem a bit odd. I propose either we try to revive it, or dump it altogether. benzband (talk) 10:56, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
I have added the proposal at WP:PUNK/COTM for next month, and updated {{WPPunk News}}. benzband (talk) 11:34, 19 February 2012 (UTC)
I added a few things and distributed it as a newsletter --In actu (Guerillero) | My Talk 16:49, 21 February 2012 (UTC)
Cheers! I don't know how to go about "doing this on the project page", however. benzband (talk) 19:23, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

What about Delta 5 (stub), The Slits (start), The Innocents (start), The Go-Go's (start)? –pjoef (talk • contribs) 21:48, 23 February 2012 (UTC)

Any of those would have probably worked fine, but they weren't nominated… :S I have "approved" (or whatever you call it) "Bikini Kill" (winning nomination - 5 supports) as the March 2012 COTM. Happy editing! benzband (talk) 16:32, 1 March 2012 (UTC)

Ramones

Hi folks,

I'm in a discussion on the talk page with someone who seems insistent on edit warring to get their own way without any consideration for collaboative working / opinion. Anyone who is able to spare the time, could you take a look and add your view please?

Socheid (talk) 15:40, 18 February 2012 (UTC)

Hardcore punk, pop punk

Every time I try to edit something all I get is a completely empty edit window. Does anybody know why that is? I joined because I'd really like to fix and expand on a lot of stuff pertaining to 90s punk. Is there any chance that we can refrain from overusing (if we must use it at all) the phrase hardcore punk? Any band that was ever any kind of punk is called "hardcore punk". I think this started with allmusic.com and it really bugs me. This phrase is used to describe anything from pop punk (which by the way is VERY poorly described in its' article) to hardcore. If it's not sum41 it's "hardcore punk". Nobody ever used to call these bands "hardcore punk" when they were playing. Hardcore, punk, pop punk, skate punk, rock n roll etc.

Also, am I the only person who feels that if we must refer to Good Charlotte as a pop punk band it should be in a completely separate page than the pop punk page that talks about Screeching Weasel and Sicko? I really feel strongly that there is not a correlation between the two beyond the use of the word as a marketing term. Also, the original style of pop punk is still very much in existence. A lot of folks probably call it "hardcore punk" though.

(Want2fixCrap (talk) 07:29, 11 March 2012 (UTC))

I have moved your comment down the page. benzband (talk) 10:55, 11 March 2012 (UTC)

In the case of "hardcore punk", I think the label is necessary here. Punk is not the only genre to use the term "hardcore" (hardcore hip-hop hardcore techno). Not to mention uses in other media (film titles, comic books, porn, ect). So, even though "hardcore" is the proper term, we still have to think of the encyclopedia as a whole. Now, if you think that a band has been improperly labeled as a hardcore band, bring it up on that bands talk page or voice you concerns here again. Start discussions with your fellow editors, and build a consensus. We all want to build better articles and make the entire project be as correct as possible. Remember to be bold in your edits, and avoid edit waring. As for Good Charlotte, that's the problem with genres and sub-genres. Bands may vary differently, but still be considered the same type of music. Unfortunately, it's the same way with all music. At any rate, I for one appreciate that you came here to voice your concerns and get the opinions of other editors. Keep up the good work, and don't hesitate to ask for help.

WikiWomen's History Month follow-up

Hi everyone! I just wanted to follow up with your project and see if any article creations or improvements took place in regards to Wikipedia:WikiWomen's History Month! If so, it'd be great if you could please post your article outcomes on the..you guessed it...WWHM outcome page! Thanks everyone for all your efforts! Sarah (talk) 20:54, 4 April 2012 (UTC)

Well i don't think we have done anything, and the COTM (Bikini Kill) didn't seem to work out… lol. In the mean time, i've drawn up a list below (from what was proposed in February) so anyone who wants can help in improvements :-) benzband (talk) 15:16, 5 April 2012 (UTC)

Asian Man Records

Anybody want to help out with a small overhaul? Basically just update the former artists section to include where the bands are currently signed (as done on Fat Wreck), add bands to the category Asian Man Records artists, and the same for the albums. I'll be doing it over the next week or so, but could probably use some help. I eventually plan on doing the same with about a dozen or so other prominent record labels. Jasper420 03:28, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

None More Black

None More Black was just deleted about a week ago. I don't remember any AFD regarding it coming up. Was anyone there?Jasper420 22:51, 17 June 2012 (UTC)

I was unaware. Looks like it was deleted under A7. --IllaZilla (talk) 23:36, 17 June 2012 (UTC)
Damn. Wish I'd noticed sooner. Jasper420 01:04, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
You could always ask the deleting admin (Alexf) to userfy it for you if you wanna try to salvage it. Shouldn't be too hard; I note Allmusic has a bio of them. --IllaZilla (talk) 01:11, 18 June 2012 (UTC)
I can do it for you if you would like --Guerillero | My Talk 04:08, 24 June 2012 (UTC)
Its here if you want to give it a shot. I did a little bit already, but not much. You can work from there or take it and put it in your own space, whichever you want. Jasper420 05:44, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

RAR: punk genre?

Seeking input on Rock Against Racism, where 173.30.195.233 (talk) wants the page listed at category:punk genres. Can it be qualified as a "punk genre", even though it involved pop, rock reggae as well? Timeline: add, revert, add. benzband (talk) 09:59, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

Very simple: A festival/campaign is not a genre. Already categorized in Category:Punk rock festivals. Category:Punk genres is for articles about musical genres, not festivals. --IllaZilla (talk) 11:45, 24 June 2012 (UTC)

There is some info that an IP has been adding to Uno!. The thing is that recordings of Uno are finished on 25 June 2012.

Wikipedia Stories Project

Hey all. Received this message, and figured I'd pass it around.Jasper420 23:01, 24 July 2012 (UTC)


Wikipedia Stories Project

Hi!

My name is Victor and I'm a storyteller with the Wikimedia Foundation, the non-profit organization that supports Wikipedia. I'm chronicling the inspiring stories of the Wikipedia community around the world, including those from readers, editors, and donors. Stories are absolutely essential for any non-profit to persuade people to support the cause, and we know the vast network of people who make and use Wikipedia have so much to share.

I'd very much like the opportunity to interview you to tell your story, with the possibility of using it in our materials, on our community websites, or as part of this year’s fundraiser to encourage others to support Wikipedia. Please let me know if you're inclined to take part in the Wikipedia Stories Project, or if you know anyone with whom I should speak.

Thank you for your time,

Overly broad addition of this project's template

Someone may want to monitor Invisiboy42293's addition of this template to articles that don't fall into the scope of this project. I am not a project member and won't follow this thread. Please leave talkback for me if you would like me to respond. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 05:21, 10 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for notifying us! I have taken a quick look and at least some of them seem to be justified. I will look at more and remove them if they're not. benzband (talk) 07:35, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
 Done Special:Contributions/Benzband (the "rm punk" edit summaries) and notified Invisiboy. benzband (talk) 08:18, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi, sorry about that. Just to clarify, a lot of the entries I added the template to were sourced (or at least source-able) as some form of pop punk or post-hardcore (a couple as post-punk), so I figured they fit the project's criteria. Still, I apologize for any inconvenience I may have caused and will try to be more careful about adding this template in the future. Thanks for keeping me in check.--Invisiboy42293 (talk) 15:40, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
I would argue that Mewithoutyuou is punk..... --Guerillero | My Talk 17:58, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
I have taken issue with the sources that Invisiboy42293 has offered. They can be found at list of Christian punk bands. They quite often consist of words or phrases that link bands to genres to punk-derivative genres such as emo, screamo, New Wave, etc.. Some of the words are likely throw-away. In one case, I contacted the writer who indicated that he was paid by the band's A&R person to include the phrases to help a single album appear to be different than it was. By default, that makes the source (AllMusic) unreliable. However, my email correspondence isn't a RS either. In any case, you may look at the sources yourself. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:06, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
Indeed, some of the bands were described as "pop rock", "electro pop" and so on but not punk; in light of that i removed the tag. I didn't know what "post-hardcore" was but Fugazi didn't have the tag so i took from that also. But then again all this genre stuff is a bit complicated so i could be wrong.
@Guerillero: I have now reverted my edit to that talkpage. I don't know the band, so my reasoning for removing teh template was that i couldn't find mention of punk music except for post hardcore.
@Invisiboy42293: thanks for adding the templates! Many of them i didn't remove. One suggestion though is that when you add project banners, try to fill in the parameters when possible (for example, if the article queality has already been rated in a different banner). And BTW, your draft for list of Christian punk bands looks good! Cheers ~ benzband (talk) 19:04, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
Thanks again for all the help and advice. BTW, for future reference, do hardcore punk and metalcore bands merit the template?--Invisiboy42293 (talk) 22:55, 10 August 2012 (UTC)
Hardcore for sure, but metalcore's a little more divisive. I've seen some with both punk and metal banners, but I think it depends on the band.Jasper420 00:53, 11 August 2012 (UTC)
Got it. I'll keep that in mind.--Invisiboy42293 (talk) 01:00, 11 August 2012 (UTC)

Ramones Songs by author

We need List of Ramones songs written by Joey, List of Ramones songs written by Dee Dee, etc., or just List of Ramones songs by Author. Readers like me want to know exactly which songs were written by who. Chrisrus (talk) 20:02, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

We really don't. Writing credits are on relevant articles.Jasper420 20:28, 16 August 2012 (UTC)
Agree w/ Jasper; such a list would be duplicative & redundant. We already have authorship credits on all the album articles. Very easy for any reader to find out who wrote what. --IllaZilla (talk) 21:23, 16 August 2012 (UTC)

Record Labels

A few months ago I brought up overhauling some punk record labels in a similar way to Fat Wreck Chords, but i got waylayed by other things after only getting through two or three, so I figured I'd just leave my plans here incase anyone else is interested.

Lets say we're doing Wikipedia Records:

  • Create category:Wikipedia records. Into this category goes Wikipedia Records, whoever started the label (Jimbo Wales), and the categories Wikipedia Records albums and Wikipedia Records artists. If those two categories do not already exist, create them.
  • Add all listed artists to Wikipedia Records artists and all albums released on Wikipedia to Wikipedia Records albums.

A list of the labels I initially came up with to give this treatment to.

Jasper420

Might get to it some time in the near future :) As it is i've started a bit. benzband (talk) 21:18, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
BTW you can use <s> </s> as a strikethrough shortcut rather than the span tags.
Ah. I knew there was a simpler strikethrough, I just couldn't find it in the editing menu. (Could you post some example text with a strikethrough used? I can't seem to figure out how.) Anyways, I seem to recall when I first brought this up some one showing interest in Dischord. I think it was either you Guerillero? Also, perhaps we can see if Walter Görlitz is interested in helping with Facedown. I see he's a member of the Christian music project, so I'll shoot him a message. Jasper420
It's in the edit tools below the edit summary box and save/preview buttons. Click on insert and then choose "wiki markup". Then there should be a list of clickable markups such as <s></s>… unless you're using the non-java version in which case it will look like this (copy/paste).
I had started on Hellcat and AT but am going to get some sleep tight now. :P benzband (talk) 22:37, 21 August 2012 (UTC)
On a related note, I'm working on User:IllaZilla/Fat Wreck Chords discography. --IllaZilla (talk) 01:35, 22 August 2012 (UTC)
Cool. I didn't include them on the list because I based my little system off what I'd seen done for Fat, so I assumed everything was on the up and up. Jasper420

Chewing on Tinfoil

Think they're notable enough for an article? http://www.punknews.org/bands/chewingontinfoil benzband (talk) 21:06, 21 August 2012 (UTC)

How about creating a Punknews.org template, a bit like we have for {{Allmusic}}? Although using {{cite web}} for articles or reviews is probably better (more parameters=less link rot), for band profiles it might come in useful. benzband (talk) 09:04, 25 August 2012 (UTC)

User:Jasper420/None More Black Does it look good enough for the mainspace now? Jasper420

Looks good enough to me. --IllaZilla (talk) 21:40, 6 September 2012 (UTC)
Alright. Who wants to do the honors? (Since I have no idea how to go about doing so) Jasper420
All you have to do is use the "move" feature: In the upper right of your window, just left of the search box, should be a downward-pointing arrow. Hover over it and you should get a dropdown option for "move". Click on that. That'll take you to the move menu. For the namespace, select "(Article)", then make the title "None More Black". For the reason you can just put "moving from userspace to article space" or something similar. Then click "move page" and you should be all set. --IllaZilla (talk) 01:48, 7 September 2012 (UTC)

New article Sábado de mierda (1988 docu on Mexican punks)

Nearly 20 years ago I saw the film Sábado de mierda at a film festival, and it made a real impression on me. There's enough mention online about it to establist WP:N, but not a lot of material. It's listed on IMDB, but until I turned up today had just the bare minimum of info. I found a few footnotes for it, so I have something to start with.

The documentary is up on YouTube (poor sound quality though) and really worth watching if you're into depictions of punk culture, and in this case in a really rough Mexican neighbourhood. If anyone else happens to watch it and wants to help bring over names from the credits, or help write a plot summary, that'd be cool as well. Hope a few folks here find it interesting! MatthewVanitas (talk) 03:14, 10 November 2012 (UTC)

Descendant WikiProjects

I was wondering if anyone had opinions on creating descendant WikiProjects. I think it would be beneficial to create projects for skramz or post-hardcore, seeing as they are related to but distinct from punk rock and emo. This would be similar to how WikiProject Computer Science is a descendant of WikiProject Computing and also related to WikiProject Mathematics. Ozhu (talk) 01:25, 21 December 2012 (UTC)

I would be quite reluctant to make Projects which are sub- to current projects. During the ebbs and flows of Wikipedia, a number of WikiProjects have arisen and promptly fallen inactive. Even something so wide as WikiProject Punk has only a few new threads in the past four months and WP:WikiProject Emo only a few threads in the last few years. Starting a new WikiProject Skramz or similar would very likely (on precedent) result in a half-dozen folks making a good-faith start on some cleanup, then swiftly petering out. I would suggest instead that you post any comments/suggestions/articles in WP:Punk as the more active of the two, and post a short "check out the discussion at WP:Punk" notice on the WP:Emo talk page. New WikiProjects should really only be started if, for example, Skramz discussion has become so prevalent that it's just overwhelming the WP:Punk talk page, not just because it might be nice to have a specific Skreamz thread. All told, there is better coverage and visibility in adding more content to quiet-ish projects, than in creating yet-smaller projects, especially when precedent shows the mid-scope projects only have limited participation. MatthewVanitas (talk) 07:25, 21 December 2012 (UTC)

Toxik Ephex (Scottish 1979 punk) needs sourcing for WP:Notability

The article Toxik Ephex is vulnerable to deletion since, though it has several paragraphs of content, it has no proper sourcing to meet Wikipedia:Notability (music). If anyone is into Scottish bands, some sourcing would be great; the article originator and main contributor hasn't edited in 4 years, so probably no help there.

I am working on Flatfoot 56's album Toil. The band's webpage claims that there was a AP review of the album and it was released in early August 2012. Could you please look in the July and August album reviews section to see if there is a review? --Guerillero | My Talk 19:19, 6 January 2013 (UTC)
Got it. Here's the full text:
Produced by Street Dogs' Johnny Rioux, Flatfoot 56's sixth album, Toil, is a must-listen for fans of Dropkick Murphys and Flogging Molly. "Brother, Brother" starts the album out fast and furious before delving into a stretch of slower songs: "The Rich, the Strong and the Poor", the stripped-down "I Believe It" and "Take hold Again". Frontman Tobin Bawinkel's gruff growl is best showcased by the title track and the punky "Live or Die Trying". Later, the album slows down again, with "6'10" and its sing-along refrain of "I ain't gonna bother". The album winds down uniquely with the piano-accompanied "Winter in Chicago" and the handclap-laden "I'll Fly Away", ending on a high note.

Articles to be created

Once my Christmas break roles around, I was thinking of writing a few articles to pass the time.

I haven't started research for sources yet, so I may have to skip some, or even abandon all together, seeing as these are all lesser known EPs, except for Fuck Nazi Sympathy and Police Bastard, which are fairly well know amongst the crust scene. Jasper420

If anyone can dig up any sources on Police Bastard, that'd be great. all I can find is compilations.Jasper420

Genres not included in List of punk rock bands

Currently disallowed are garage rock, protopunk, alternative rock, grunge, New wave and post-punk. I suggest adding metalcore and crossover thrash to the description. While both are descended from hardcore punk, they are too much of a derivative form to be included with punk bands (with the exception of early metalcore bands, before the introduction of melodic death metal influence).Jasper420 20:16, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, i think so too. benzband (talk) 20:47, 17 January 2013 (UTC)
No objections, so I went for it. I'll just keep an eye out for any do gooders who try to remove old style metalcore bands.Jasper420

Project banner

'S'mee again. Currently, adding the Wikiproject Punk banner to a talk page adds it the the relevant categories for quality and importance scale, but not a general category. I don't know if it's been discussed before, but it seems like a good idea, though I personally don't know how one would go about doing it.Jasper420 21:10, 17 January 2013 (UTC)

Crack Rock Steady

Does the "crack rock steady" subgenre deserve a mention in the article on ska punk?

Un-Assessed importance articles backlog

I just went through the backlog of articles of unassessed importance, reducing the number of articles needing to be assessed from around 500 to 62. Could someone please go through the last 62 articles I skipped and assess them? I skipped them mostly because:

  • I wasn't sure what level to classify them as
  • I wasn't sure if they fall under the scope of the project
  • I wasn't sure if the articles were notable, or should instead be deleted.

I'm fairly certain that all the remaining articles, should they not fall under the bottom two criteria, would be either low or mid importance. Wall Screamer (talk) 21:31, 14 September 2013 (UTC)

Done! 62 articles (out of 65) belong to this WikiProject. I am not sure about Les Georges Leningrad (which is a experimental/post/indie rock band from Montreal), MewithoutYou (an art/indie rock, but also post-hardcore band from Philadelphia), and Neon Horse (do we cover post-punk?).

but they are currently non-existent and empty. Should we create these categories or adjust the banner so that they are not required? -- benzband (talk) 15:24, 7 October 2013 (UTC)

The first two are necessary so that the template fits the generic WikiProject template criteria for the Kingbotk plugin of AutoWikiBrowser. This way, articles can be easily and quickly assessed and added to the WikiProject. I've created the appropriate pages. The third, I'm not sure is necessary- Do we even have any bots working to assess Punk music articles? At the same time, it doesn't really get in the way.

New article Shrapnel (US punk band) (1970s militaristic punk/glam band)

I earlier wrote the article Shrapnel (Welsh punk band) for a band I really like, but ran across another band by the same name from New Jersey. Finally got around to writing on the US band. They were a pretty goofy over-the-top band with a right-wing pro-military theme (no idea how ironically meant), but they have WP:N so I figure they needed an article. If you're curious, they have a clip of them (in Army camo uniforms) on YouTube under Shrapnel "Combat Love" Nov. 1980 on Cable TV . I think the Welsh band is way better, but still this one is good to have for the sake of completeness. MatthewVanitas (talk) 00:38, 14 June 2014 (UTC)

Comment on the WikiProject X proposal

Hello there! As you may already know, most WikiProjects here on Wikipedia struggle to stay active after they've been founded. I believe there is a lot of potential for WikiProjects to facilitate collaboration across subject areas, so I have submitted a grant proposal with the Wikimedia Foundation for the "WikiProject X" project. WikiProject X will study what makes WikiProjects succeed in retaining editors and then design a prototype WikiProject system that will recruit contributors to WikiProjects and help them run effectively. Please review the proposal here and leave feedback. If you have any questions, you can ask on the proposal page or leave a message on my talk page. Thank you for your time!

Hello everyone!

You may have received a message from me earlier asking you to comment on my WikiProject X proposal. The good news is that WikiProject X is now live! In our first phase, we are focusing on research. At this time, we are looking for people to share their experiences with WikiProjects: good, bad, or neutral. We are also looking for WikiProjects that may be interested in trying out new tools and layouts that will make participating easier and projects easier to maintain. If you or your WikiProject are interested, check us out! Note that this is an opt-in program; no WikiProject will be required to change anything against its wishes. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thank you!

Note: To receive additional notifications about WikiProject X on this talk page, please add this page to Wikipedia:WikiProject X/Newsletter. Otherwise, this will be the last notification sent about WikiProject X.

Help me research Inner Terrestrials

I just stumbled on Draft:Inner Terrestrials - it is a fairly busy band in the British DIY and festival scene. With its interviews and reviews only in fanzines such as Peppermint Iguana,[1] I don't think I should promote it to article space, as it is likely to quickly end up at Articles for Deletion. Can you help me with some research to find reliable sources to demonstrate notability? --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 09:51, 13 June 2015 (UTC)

There are 11 reviews and interviews listed at http://www.innerterrestrials.co.uk/category/reviews/ . Could someone familiar with the underground scene read through them and identify if we have at least one reliable source? (10 are in English and 1 in German) ( TheRoughneckRiot, Shufflecore, Warzone, Peppermint Iguana x 2, Beats, Bacteria, 1000 Aspirins, Reason to Believe, Live4Metal, Kink Records ) --Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 11:55, 21 June 2015 (UTC)

Some originals of above I could find online (I guess the others are print only, subscription or defunct. Live4Metal is in the Wayback Machine, but I couldn't find this review there.)

--Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 13:09, 21 June 2015 (UTC)

  • I bet that Last Hours zine establishes notablity. I found an IT gig review from 2009. Also an interesting passing mention.
  • I don't know if this couple of mentions in Google Books are significant coverage, or trivial.
  • My conclusion is that the Last Hours review, along with the video interview of the band that Christopher Lee published, meet general notability guidelines, while the other reviews might bolster the case a little, particularly Peppermint Iguana, that seems to be quite well known in the scene.
  • What do you think?

--Hroðulf (or Hrothulf) (Talk) 13:50, 21 June 2015 (UTC)

Before I wrote above, I hadn't read the 'Others' section of WP:MUSIC that says "Is frequently covered in publications devoted to a notable sub-culture" - above list will certainly make that argument.

  4. Rees, Mark. "Legendary London squatter punk rockers' intimate Swansea date". South Wales Evening Post. Retrieved 21 June 2015.

  5. Brown, Nathan (21 Feb 2015). "RIP Paco Carreno drummer with Conflict and Inner Terrestrials". Louder Than War (magazine). John Robb. Retrieved 21 Jun 2015. Punks around the world were saddened at the news yesterday of the death at the age of 49 of Francisco "Paco" Carreno.

  6. "SIR CHRISTOPHER LEE Dies Of Respiratory Problems And Heart Failure Aged 93". Metal Forces. 11 Jun 2015. With London-based punk outfit Inner Terrestrials, in 2006 he recorded a metal variation of the composition 'The Toreador Song' from the 1875 opera Carmen, which appeared on the man's 2006 platter Revelation.

I think most of the others might be reliable. By 'others' I mean Bacteria,[2] Kink Records[3] and Shufflecore,[4] according to WP:MUSIC, and the rest listed at the band's own site but not used in the article, (because I don't have access to the originals) but I don't know enough about the scene to decide.

WikiProject collaboration notice from the Portals WikiProject

The reason I am contacting you is because there are one or more portals that fall under this subject, and the Portals WikiProject is currently undertaking a major drive to automate portals that may affect them.

Portals are being redesigned.

The new design features are being applied to existing portals.

At present, we are gearing up for a maintenance pass of portals in which the introduction section will be upgraded to no longer need a subpage. In place of static copied and pasted excerpts will be self-updating excerpts displayed through selective transclusion, using the template {{Transclude lead excerpt}}.

The discussion about this can be found here.

Maintainers of specific portals are encouraged to sign up as project members here, noting the portals they maintain, so that those portals are skipped by the maintenance pass. Currently, we are interested in upgrading neglected and abandoned portals. There will be opportunity for maintained portals to opt-in later, or the portal maintainers can handle upgrading (the portals they maintain) personally at any time.

Background

On April 8th, 2018, an RfC ("Request for comment") proposal was made to eliminate all portals and the portal namespace. On April 17th, the Portals WikiProject was rebooted to handle the revitalization of the portal system. On May 12th, the RfC was closed with the result to keep portals, by a margin of about 2 to 1 in favor of keeping portals.

There's an article in the current edition of the Signpost interviewing project members about the RfC and the Portals WikiProject.

Since the reboot, the Portals WikiProject has been busy building tools and components to upgrade portals.

So far, 84 editors have joined.

If you would like to keep abreast of what is happening with portals, see the newsletter archive.

If you have any questions about what is happening with portals or the Portals WikiProject, please post them on the WikiProject's talk page.

Thank you.    — The Transhumanist   11:00, 31 May 2018 (UTC)

Hello and greetings from the maintainers of the WP 1.0 Bot! As you may or may not know, we are currently involved in an overhaul of the bot, in order to make it more modern and maintainable. As part of this process, we will be rewriting the web tool that is part of the project. You might have noticed this tool if you click through the links on the project assessment summary tables.

We'd like to collect information on how the current tool is used by....you! How do you yourself and the other maintainers of your project use the web tool? Which of its features do you need? How frequently do you use these features? And what features is the tool missing that would be useful to you? We have collected all of these questions at this Google form where you can leave your response. Walkerma (talk) 04:24, 27 October 2019 (UTC)

New Page Created

I created a page for the Krum Bums as I saw them listed as a page in need of creation. I did this page as a project for a grad class. Any tips would be appreciated. Thank you! Thehistorian17 (talk) 03:46, 12 April 2021 (UTC)
