Hi, Aljohnston,
Welcome to Wikipedia!
I hope you like this place — I sure do — and want to
stay. Before getting too in-depth, you may want to read about the
Five pillars of Wikipedia and
simplified ruleset. If you need help on how to title new articles check out the
naming conventions, and for help on formatting the pages visit the
manual of style. If you need help look at
Wikipedia:Help and the
FAQ , plus if you can't find your answer there, check the
Village Pump (for Wikipedia related questions) or the
Reference Desk (for general questions)! There's still more help at the
Tutorial and
Policy Library. Plus, don't forget to visit the
Community Portal. And if you have any more questions after that, feel free to post them on
my user talk page or place {{helpme}}
on your talk page and someone will be by to help you shortly.
Here's some extra tips to help you get around in the 'pedia!
Happy Wiki-ing. — Kf4bdy talk contribs
Hi - I'm a little curious about your additions to List of albums which do not contain their title track. I can't find any evidence that Smashing Pumpkins ever sang songs called "Adore", "Gish", "Machina/The Machines of God", or "Machina II/The Friends and Enemies of Modern Music". The page makes it clear that it is for albums with titles that are the same as tracks which have been performed by artists, but which don't appear on the albums. If I'm wrong about those three tracks, fine, but if they don't exist, the albums shouldn't be there. Grutness... wha? 00:50, 1 July 2006 (UTC)
Hello. Please try to avoid adding Trivia sections to music articles (see Wikipedia:WikiProject_Music/MUSTARD#Trivia). The material you add can always be better integrated into the mainline of the text, as I have done for example on Landslide (song), Today (song), and 1979 (song). Wasted Time R 11:24, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Hey there! I noticed that you had a high amount of Smashing Pumpkins-related contributions, and was wondering if you'd consider joining the The Smashing Pumpkins Wikiproject, which is basically a Wikiproject centered around Smashing Pumpkins-related articles. Thanks! -- Brandt Luke Zorn 04:48, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
Hello
WikiProject Alternative music member.
WikiProject Alternative music, in my eyes, has proved to be successful "improving the encyclopaedic coverage of articles relating to alternative rock", and improving their quality as well. One specific example I have witnessed is
The Smashing Pumpkins article. The page has gone from a mediocre work, to GA status, to FA nomination. Only appropriate, as the Pumpkins are undeniably one of the most influential alternative rock bands on the 1990's and beyond.
This is the stuff I wish to achieve with the somewhat recently ressurected
WikiProject Rock music. I hope to also attract attention to
rock music articles of all sorts, and hopefully change some to GA or FA status. I invite you to come join us, and not only be a member of alternative Wikipedians, but the rockin' ones as well.
Rock on.

As part of the Alternative music WikiProject, we're gathering a list of sources on this page. Could you take a look and perhaps add any written references you have access to? Thanks! CloudNine 10:02, 8 April 2007 (UTC)
I'm informing all of the members of The Smashing Pumpkins WikiProject that I recently redesigned and streamlined the WikiProject page ( see here) based on Wikipedia:WikiProject Slayer and partially inspired by Wikipedia:WikiProject Alternative music. If anyone sees anything that needs tweaking, or if you think that the whole thing should be scrapped, say so here (btw, there's also an almost exact replica of what I'm telling you here at that location).
