I played around with that influences section after you suggested a new spot. Perhaps don't both going through each diff, rather the overall change is here. I think your suggested new position actually created (or at least enhanced) the contradiction you complained about in the sentence's initial placement. (ie, right after it speaks of morale, rather than at the end of that paragraph). So i moved it to Composition where it already talks about personal and religious writing. -- Merbabu ( talk) 23:04, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
Hi there, as I'm sure you know " City of Blinding Lights" is currently up for FAC. At the moment it looks as if the article will not pass unless the prose receives a copyedit from somebody with fresh eyes; could I ask you to take some time in the immediate future to give the article a look-over and tighten up the prose? Cheers, MelicansMatkin ( talk, contributions) 04:01, 21 February 2010 (UTC)
Hah, I think it's really funny that you've put the concert article up for PR before taking it to GAN; I was thinking only a few hours earlier today about taking those steps too!

There are four different sheet musics for "With or Without You" on the website. The first says it is played in a key of D/D-major (I think it's the same thing?) at a speed of 110 bpm. The second is identical to the first, but is several pages shorter making me think it must be abbreviated, or is only a partial sample (cutting out some of the intro and most of the outro probably). The third says it is played in a key of Eb "Moderately" (no exact speed is given). The fourth is third to say it is in a key of D, but at a speed of 112 bpm. No indications of tempo are given for numbers 1, 2, or 4. Of the four samples I think that the first ( link) and the fourth ( link) are the most likely to be correct; I'm not sure how much difference 2 bpm makes, but number 1 is probably the one to go for.

I was randomly browsing through the {{ find}} results for Achtung Baby on Google and came across this interesting tidbit about David Bowie: " Tin Machine II, however, was not quite the last gasp of Bowie's band project: the band released a live album, Oy Vey, Baby, in 1992. The live album consists primarily of songs taken from both of Tin Machine's studio albums. The unusual Yiddish title is a takeoff on U2's Achtung Baby." Given how influential and notable Bowie is, this may well be worth adding to the article. My first thought was that Legacy would be the place to sneak it in, but there doesn't seem to be a particularly good location in there for it to be mentioned (not without breaking down the flow anyways).

For incredible work on Mariano Rivera. I am awarding you this barnstar. Mariano Rivera appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page as Today's featured article on June 29, 2010.-- KANE SUE 13:14, 29 June 2010 (UTC) |
The original review was 2 stars out of 6, but when I checked it the other day as I modified the prose I saw that it had been changed to 2 out of 5. That sixth star may have been an accidental inclusion in the original review (6 does seem an odd sort of rating scale). Melicans ( talk, contributions) 03:16, 7 July 2010 (UTC)
I really don't like the caption "Rivera had his weakest season as closer in 2007" on Mariano Rivera's page. I mean, yes it was the only season his numbers appear mortal, but that caption doesn't sit right with me. It suggests he was really bad, when his ERA was in the 3's, and his WHIP only slightly above 1. Since you do most of the work on this page, I wanted to see if we could brainstorm a better caption. -- Muboshgu ( talk) 19:23, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

I know that you're probably focused on Zoo TV Tour right now, but I want to get U2's 1997 concert in Sarajevo up to FA as soon as possible; with the FAC for "Slug" being withdrawn and archived today, I'd be able to put it up in two weeks (given the new FAC rules to wait 2 weeks between noms). Given how much we've worked together on it, we'd both be listed as nominators, which could have an affect on how soon you want to get Zoo TV Tour up there. Are you game for it?

I noticed you're having the same problem with the Billboard charts that I've run into recently. That is, that since their last update a lot of chart positions are just plain wrong. A serious pain, I tell you. It's funny how Allmusic has a better accounting of their charts than Billboard itself has these days. WesleyDodds ( talk) 09:46, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
It is quite a big difference, because as originally written in British English, single quotes are used for album titles. The quotations should be preserved as much as possible. WesleyDodds ( talk) 22:28, 17 July 2010 (UTC)
On the nomination page you stated it is a Good Topic nomination, but it is listed at Featured Topics; not sure if it was listed in error or if there was a typo, but I figured I'd let you know. Melicans ( talk, contributions) 21:09, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
I know that you're probably focused on Zoo TV Tour right now, but I want to get U2's 1997 concert in Sarajevo up to FA as soon as possible; with the FAC for "Slug" being withdrawn and archived today, I'd be able to put it up in two weeks (given the new FAC rules to wait 2 weeks between noms). Given how much we've worked together on it, we'd both be listed as nominators, which could have an affect on how soon you want to get Zoo TV Tour up there. Are you game for it?

I think this is the book you are looking for.
I guess I can get it from my library. You're still interested?
kind regards.
