Hi, thanks for not reverting the changes. I've removed Slim and Otis' real names on their request. Andy doesn't have any objection to his being used which is why he has his own article and the others don't. I've done so per WP:BLP#People who are relatively unknown. Actually, on this matter I'm on your side and I've tried to persuade them to let me write up more on them but they are intensely private people, especially Slim. He didn't even want me to create a Hamsters article, but as it wasn't me who did so I got away with that one :) -- WebHamster 21:33, 12 December 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for adding the album covers to the articles - I hope the 'deletist police' do not try to remove them ! Regards, Derek R Bullamore ( talk) 11:39, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
P.S. I did not realise, until recently, that the alternative vinyl colours of white and brown were meant to represent milk and alcohol. Fine song though.

I received the following e-mail from Jose (whom I do not know at all), which you may find interesting.
My name is Jose, I write for a website called alterna2.com about concerts in Barcelona. Recently I attended Dr. Feelgood and I took some pictures.
The Dr. Feelgood article in the Wikipedia was very useful to write the review of the gig. We published all our content under the creative commons license, including the photos. So I through that maybe you find useful some of the photos I took of the band, you can find them here: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alterna2/sets/72157615558781757/
I like this one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/alterna2/3369126564/in/set-72157615558781757/
Best regards
Jose Cornide Coordinador de redactores E-mail: jose@alterna2.com http://www.alterna2.com
I think some of the images are decent enough to add to the Feelgood article; but I am no expert, and am rather relying on you to execute same - if you think they will escape the Wiki deletionists. I'm more than happy enough to thank said Jose profusely for his kind efforts. However, the eternal sceptic in me says - 'Is this too good to be true' ?!
Many, many thanks for sorting this one out with Jose - much obliged,

Good work on the above article. I prefer not to edit any more (see talkpage for the reasons). Unfortunately, somebody from one of the camps will come along and undo your good work. Perhaps you would still like to have a quick look at the external links and add John Stoke's version as a matter of impartiality - as there is a link for one side's version of events, both should really be there. It must have been vandalised out at some point. -- Richhoncho ( talk) 18:24, 8 July 2009 (UTC)
Me - again. Do you have any information (with your Man cap firmly on your head) for said Mr. Scott, particularly (or otherwise) in conjunction with Marty Wilde ? The whole Frere Manston and Jack Gellar pseudonym has me vaguely intrigued. Is Ronnie Scott still alive ? How / why did he link up with Mr. Wilde ? I know this may lead nowhere, but the Marty Wilde article has, somewhat naturally, a link to the 'other' Ronnie Scott. Actually, this may well be of my own making - but with Man, The Casuals, Status Quo and Wilde in the mix; what about Wolsey (sometimes part songwriting credit for " Ice in the Sun"), Or even, "Abergavenny" ?
So they write "Jesamine" or "When Jesamine Goes"; "Abergavenny"; and "Ice in the Sun" all in 1968 and say goodbye ? Not massive globally selling block busters, but all three sizable successes. I may be pissing in the wind here, but it might be worth a punt ?!
Best wishes.
Derek R Bullamore ( talk) 23:00, 31 August 2009 (UTC)
Wow, what a lot of research - for which I am both grateful and impressed ! Sorry for the delay in replying. A combination of a bout of sickness and watching cricket at Trent Bridge (no connection between the two - apart from me) has left me elsewhere recently. I am not too sure how to use the information you have proffered. An article on said Ronnie seems logical, but I bet it may be hard to find enough sources / details. At least it might help clear up the understandable confusion between the two namesakes. Thanks again,
Derek R Bullamore ( talk) 14:32, 12 September 2009 (UTC)
Probably outside of your interest zone, but I am starting to try to beef up the Wiki article. No great effort needed to improve it slightly, as it was without a single reference. Anyhow, if the subject matter does not greatly upset your sensibilities, all help is appreciated. Best wishes,
Derek R Bullamore ( talk) 16:18, 3 November 2009 (UTC)
I happened to blunder across this article (via The Bystanders), which I remembered you have worked hard on, and noticed that there seems to be regular usage of first rather than surnames throughout. I thought it only fair to let you have a look, before I tumbled in. Best wishes,

I note your interest in Space rock. I recently did some work on this band's article, but felt that it needs a lot of work sorting facts from fancruft. You may be more interested than I in having a look, and seeing if anything is able to be rescued. You are probably busy elsewhere, but it was just a thought. Kind regards,

Thanks for uploading File:Bowi.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 ( talk) 04:04, 19 December 2010 (UTC)
Hi. You undid this revert of mine on All by Myself. I admit that there wasn't much to go on in the edit summary, but could you have a look at my explanation at WikiProject Songs, and if you agree, do a self-revert. Thanks! — SMALL JIM 09:58, 18 May 2011 (UTC)
Hi, do you know how you correctly upload an image for a music single on here? It's been ages since I've done it and everytime I try to find out, I find templates that don't look at all like the ones used for good profiles. Thanks Dollvalley ( talk) 11:36, 9 June 2011 (UTC)

Arjayay, the Dick Campbell page has been put on Proposed deletion:
The article Dick Campbell (singer-songwriter) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
While all contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your
edit summary or on
the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the
proposed deletion process, but other
deletion processes exist. The
speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and
articles for deletion allows discussion to reach
consensus for deletion.

Thanks for pointing out the notability of the subject on its AfD page. I'm going to speedy close it because the group are notable. Would you care to add the information that you mentioned in the AfD to the article? Even though the band is notable, the article fails to demonstrate that it is. I couldn't find anything in a Google search either. That's why I tagged it in the first place. Cheers. — Fly by Night ( talk) 17:47, 9 July 2011 (UTC)
Hello Arjayay,
Thank you for changing the singles titles to the correct Wiki style on Simon's page. I am trying to learn Wiki house style as fast as I can and all help is much appreciated.
And can I ask where the use of bold type is appropriate? I see you unbolded "More recent". I just thought that might be of interest to readers.

Since disclosing that I am an editor with COI - one of my professional responsibilities is to promote Nine Below Zero - I feel an apology is due to you, Arjayay. I am new to Wikipedia and was unaware of breaching this policy. I did not mean to flout any guidelines. I do not intend to bias the Nine Below Zero page in a promotional direction and I can promise you and all other editors that my intentions are to be neutral. My changes were merely intended to bring the page up-to-date, as I had a degree of knowledge I wished to share about the band's activities in recent years. I have left a similar message to this on the Nine Below Zero talk page to clarify and would like to make it clear to you that my motives were not sinister in the slightest and I only wanted to assist with the accuracy of the page. Do you think I should I refrain from making further edits? LukeEdwardsFC ( talk) 20:41, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
Apologies but I have re-submitted the Nine Below Zero page without the image but justified my reasons for doing so - it has just occurred to me through reading the policies on COI that I should have requested the image removal on the Talk page instead. Sorry, like I said, I'm a newcomer. Is it possible you can advise me on what I should do? LukeEdwardsFC ( talk) 21:26, 9 February 2012 (UTC)
Hello — this message is to inform you that there is currently a public poll to determine whether to capitalize the definite article ("the") when mentioning the band "THE BEATLES" mid-sentence. As you've previously participated either here, here, or here, your input would be appreciated. Thank you for your time. Jburlinson ( talk) 03:28, 20 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi Arjayay: thanks for catching the distinction and correcting it. I should have caught that. I think your instincts are fine. The more we can provide distinct information for people with the same name who work in the same or similar fields is always helpful.--FeanorStar7 18:38, 11 November 2012 (UTC)
