Something you may be able to help clear up. The Acid Jazz article has the label being created in 1987 with Galliano as their first signing and "Frederick lies still" as the first single (which the catalogue number would appear to confirm). However this blog (and us) have Galliano forming in 1988 and releasing "Frederick" in 1989. Eil.com have the release date of the single as 1987 which would appear to tally with the label creation, but then this makes a nonsense of the group forming in 1988 and leaves a huge gap between that release and the appearance of the singles from In Pursuit. Can you shed any light on the correct timeline? Thanks. danno_ uk 22:53, 14 September 2013 (UTC)

Hello, DjScrawl. If you want to link to an article named "Foo people" but have the link just read "Foo", you should write [[Foo people|Foo]]
, not the other way around. But, when talking about a cultural phenomenon such as the "British punk rock scene," it seems clear that "British" is referring to a location, not to an ethnic group, so the more appropriate link would be [[United Kingdom|British]]

Hello Doc - First time caller, long time listener. ;) About your recent Los Campesinos! single release-date/format submergence - I have a vague recollection of a Wikipedia:Manual of Style, or thereabouts, specification of minimum precision for release-dates, but not a maximum. Are day/month-precise rel-dates positively contra-MoS? If so, I'd be grateful if you could point-out where that's written (I've failed to re-find such).

Is it customary to add On Demand charts to song articles? "Royals" is #1 on US ODS. BollyJeff | talk 14:12, 30 October 2013 (UTC)
The ARIA Streaming Tracks Chart details were removed from the Royals (song) page. According to the definition of Wikipedia's Record chart page, it states 'a record chart is a ranking of recorded music according to popularity during a given period of time'. The ARIA Streaming Tracks Chart ranks the songs according to how much they've been streamed online on sites such as Spotify and JB Hi Fi Now. I have also seen other Wikipedia pages that are about singles, they too list streaming charts under their 'Charts' section they list charts such as the UK Streaming Chart or the US Streaming Songs chart.

You recently reverted my change to a quotation in the Wounded Knee Massacre article. The quotation was sourced from Black Elk Speaks, and I noticed that it did not match the original text: it used the word "hope" instead of "hoop". I made the small change to fix this discrepancy. I understand and agree that in the article, the word "hope" probably makes more sense, but it is not the word Black Elk used. In the context of what he was saying (you should read the entire excerpt from the original text, as the article omits a sentence or two) he is speaking about his community being broken, and refers to a metaphorical hoop. Anyway, the point is that the simple fix here is to change "hope" to "hoop." If you think that's too confusing for the reader, then we'll have to work out a more complex solution; I'd suggest leaving out the last sentence altogether. — Rutebega ( talk) 20:09, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Yes, censored is closer to my intended meaning. Thanks for pointing out my typo. Having fixed that, if I'm missing any meaning by subsequently ignoring your "hm?", please elaborate.
Writing to a jet setting friend a couple of days ago, I made a pun based in the lyrics of Frank Chickens' " We Are Ninja (Not Geisha)". She wrote back to say how much she was looking forward to laughing, when she returned to this side of the Chinese Wall. ... Not my finest comedy moment. :/
More precisely, what's been censored includes my 12 December 2013 discussion centralisation canvassing note.
As a result Talk:Love & Peace#Set Phrase: Lingua Franca became to Talk:Love & Girls#Set Phrase: Lingua Franca, as the Life and Times of Jang Sung-taek (North Korean version) is to the Life and Times of Jang Sung-taek (South Korean version).
Notwithstanding my being aspie (congenitally/inherently literal vis language interpretation), to me Exact is a superlative, meaning verifiably and exhaustively precise. However, pending at least a doubling of remuneration, around these parts, I shall assume you're illiterating a comparative "more exact" and rain check the feintted exhaustive aspect of your demand.

Hi Ian.
I am a little confused/uncomfortable with some of your recent changes to the
Official Streaming Chart article. I don't see the benefit of having one long, unwieldy redirect being linked by two completely separate things (i.e.
ALIAE: UK's Official Charts Company (OCC), OfficialCharts.com – how is this an improvement over what was there before? Some of the changes don't make any grammatical sense, e.g. "in the magazine Music Week" has now become "in Music Week magazine". "The Official UK Charts Company" is used a couple of times, when the company's name is currently
Official Charts Company.
I really didn't understand your revision summary about
Martin Talbot being God and issuing trademarks, especially when all you've changed from that sentence is to remove the word "true" from the quotation and change "in" to "[to]". Per
MOS:QUOTE, the original wording of quoted text needs to be faithfully reproduced, wherever possible.
Finally, I'm not sure why
note a no longer links to
Gotye, but instead links to a redirect that includes the original release date of the song and its record label – this seems a little unnecessary to me. Per
WP:BRD, I have reverted the article to its last stable revision, but I am happy to discuss the changes further on the talk page, if you don't agree with my decision. Thanks very much.

Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.

I have also seen other Wikipedia pages that are about singles, they too list streaming charts under their 'Charts' section they list charts such as the UK Streaming Chart or the US Streaming Songs chart.

The reason why I relinked them back to Universal Music Group is because the Nayutawave Records articles on the Japanese wikipedia all redirect to the Japanese article for Universal Music Japan. It would be kind of pointless and linking to Universal Music Group on the English wiki serves the same purpose. (Nayutawave is listed on List of Universal Music Group labels#Under the Universal Music branding under Universal Music Japan) Raykyogrou0 ( Talk) 05:59, 30 November 2013 (UTC)
You recently reverted my change to a quotation in the Wounded Knee Massacre article. The quotation was sourced from Black Elk Speaks, and I noticed that it did not match the original text: it used the word "hope" instead of "hoop". I made the small change to fix this discrepancy. I understand and agree that in the article, the word "hope" probably makes more sense, but it is not the word Black Elk used. In the context of what he was saying (you should read the entire excerpt from the original text, as the article omits a sentence or two) he is speaking about his community being broken, and refers to a metaphorical hoop. Anyway, the point is that the simple fix here is to change "hope" to "hoop." If you think that's too confusing for the reader, then we'll have to work out a more complex solution; I'd suggest leaving out the last sentence altogether. — Rutebega ( talk) 20:09, 5 December 2013 (UTC)

Yes, censored is closer to my intended meaning. Thanks for pointing out my typo. Having fixed that, if I'm missing any meaning by subsequently ignoring your "hm?", please elaborate.
Writing to a jet setting friend a couple of days ago, I made a pun based in the lyrics of Frank Chickens' " We Are Ninja (Not Geisha)". She wrote back to say how much she was looking forward to laughing, when she returned to this side of the Chinese Wall. ... Not my finest comedy moment. :/
More precisely, what's been censored includes my 12 December 2013 discussion centralisation canvassing note.
As a result Talk:Love & Peace#Set Phrase: Lingua Franca became to Talk:Love & Girls#Set Phrase: Lingua Franca, as the Life and Times of Jang Sung-taek (North Korean version) is to the Life and Times of Jang Sung-taek (South Korean version).
Notwithstanding my being aspie (congenitally/inherently literal vis language interpretation), to me Exact is a superlative, meaning verifiably and exhaustively precise. However, pending at least a doubling of remuneration, around these parts, I shall assume you're illiterating a comparative "more exact" and rain check the feintted exhaustive aspect of your demand.
BTW: You may have insight on Talk:K-pop#Criticism esp' WP:NPOV vis stunt/controversy coverage, in which case Double Nickels on the Dime's " Shit From An Old Notebook" SongMeanings.com might provide a soundtrack. – Ian, DjScrawl ( talk) 15:44, 18 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Ian.
I am a little confused/uncomfortable with some of your recent changes to the
Official Streaming Chart article. I don't see the benefit of having one long, unwieldy redirect being linked by two completely separate things (i.e.
ALIAE: UK's Official Charts Company (OCC), OfficialCharts.com – how is this an improvement over what was there before? Some of the changes don't make any grammatical sense, e.g. "in the magazine Music Week" has now become "in Music Week magazine". "The Official UK Charts Company" is used a couple of times, when the company's name is currently
Official Charts Company.
I really didn't understand your revision summary about
Martin Talbot being God and issuing trademarks, especially when all you've changed from that sentence is to remove the word "true" from the quotation and change "in" to "[to]". Per
MOS:QUOTE, the original wording of quoted text needs to be faithfully reproduced, wherever possible.
Finally, I'm not sure why
note a no longer links to
Gotye, but instead links to a redirect that includes the original release date of the song and its record label – this seems a little unnecessary to me. Per
WP:BRD, I have reverted the article to its last stable revision, but I am happy to discuss the changes further on the talk page, if you don't agree with my decision. Thanks very much.

Hi DjScrawl,
In order to better control the quality of new pages, keep out the spam, and welcome the genuine newbies, the current system we introduced in 2011 is being updated and improved. The documentation and tutorials have also been revised and given a facelift. Most importantly a new user group New Page Reviewer has been created.
Under the new rule, you may find that you are temporarily unable to mark new pages as reviewed. However, this is nothing to worry about - most current experienced patrollers are being accorded the the new right without the need to apply, and if you have significant previous experience of patrolling new pages, we strongly encourage you to apply for the new right as soon as possible - we need all the help we can get, and we are now providing a dynamic, supportive environment for your work.
Find out more about this exiting new user right now at New Page Reviewers and be sure to read the new tutorial before applying. MediaWiki message delivery ( talk) 04:28, 13 November 2016 (UTC)
