Portal:The Clash (9 November 2010)

Hi RepublicanJacobite! As a member of The Clash WikiProject I thought I would let you know that The Clash portal went live today 9 November 2010. At the moment, the portal has 7 selected articles (Joe Strummer, Mick Jones, London Calling, Paul Simonon, Topper Headon, Rock the Casbah, and Should I Stay or Should I Go), some other articles are still in development and more will come in the future, 7 albums (London Calling, Combat Rock, Sandinista!, The Clash, Give 'Em Enough Rope, Super Black Market Clash, and Cut the Crap), 14 pictures (all covered by a free license; for the full list please check out this page), and 50 hooks for the DYK section (full list here). There are also sections on categories, topics, wikiproject, related portals, associated wikimedia, and more. Take a look when you have a second. Cheers. –pjoef (talk • contribs) 23:10, 9 November 2010 (UTC)

Welcome back

Just a quick note to say glad to see you back and editing here at WikiP. I had hoped to be able to say that our Brazilian pest was gone but they returned today with the usual nonsense. This is the new IP# 201.43.35.28. Though hopefully they will be blocked by the time that you get here today. Have a great holiday season and cheers. MarnetteD | Talk 11:31, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

You are right about that. The articles for Kubrick's films do seem to attract people trying to add all manner of theories about what the films mean. Cheers. MarnetteD | Talk 04:02, 8 December 2010 (UTC)

Once Upon a Time in the West

Why did you undo my edit concerning in Sholay? It is in the reference. BollyJeff || talk 01:19, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

That ref has now been removed by you. How can you say that the other 4 films belong in that paragraph without some sort of valid citation if Sholay doesn't belong? Now we have to remove them all, don't we? BollyJeff || talk 02:41, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

The first time I added it, was in the wrong place, next to films that inspired Once. The following paragraphs list films that were inspired by it. But since there are no adequate citations for any of them, they don't really belong there. I don't understand how you can favor some films without citations over another film without a citation.

Thank you for showing me Wikipedia:POINT, and I am sorry to have done that. However, you have not answered my question above. I will be more clear now. How can justify that Pirates, which is not even a western, be included in that list, just because it has 30 seconds of similar music, and Sholay, which is a western, and has maybe 10 minutes or more worth of scenes directly lifted from Once, and the same similar music, not be included? I have all three movies on disc and have seen them multiple times, so I know that I am right on this. Please answer the question. BollyJeff || talk 13:13, 10 December 2010 (UTC)

Well that last comment was meant for MarnetteD, but I would certainly like to hear your answer too. MarnetteD chose not to answer. What do you think? Is it just common practice to revert new sub-par content, while leaving existing sub-par content that was already there in an article before you saw it? BollyJeff || talk 16:44, 15 December 2010 (UTC)

For the record I did answer as can be seen here [1] MarnetteD | Talk 20:43, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Quick favour

As I'm not around much keep an eye on Peter T. King please, there's an IP editor that seems to have mistaken an encyclopedia for the National Enquirer. Details are on the talk page, and raised it on BLPN too. 2 lines of K₃₀₃ 11:48, 18 December 2010 (UTC)

Also heading off for an as yet undecided amount of time shortly, if the IP at 1993 Bishopsgate bombing carries on could you file a report at WP:AE? Thanks. 2 lines of K₃₀₃ 13:23, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Hi, I am a person from Germany. Possibly you can look on the discussion of the article: Audio theatre, because you have made a edits in the past on radio drama. with friendly greetings, Soenke --Soenke Rahn (talk) 23:10, 19 December 2010 (UTC)

A Small Question

Hi; a couple of months back, I added some links for a blog of mine where I review classic movies to the entries of various movies I had reviewed and you deleted them. I'm not upset about it, I was just wondering if there was any way you could re-consider your decision; the purpose of my blog isn't in any way business or profit-related, I simply wanted to share my views on some of my favorite films with anyone interested...{Lonenut2000 (talk) 20:23, 22 December 2010 (UTC)}

Greetings of the season to you and yours!

Happy Holidays, TheOldJacobite! At this wonderful time of year, I would like to give season’s greetings to all the fellow Wikipedians I have interacted with in the past! May you have a very Merry Christmas and happy editing in the year ahead! MarnetteD | Talk 20:43, 23 December 2010 (UTC)

Merry, merry

Industrial music lead

There's a little discussion about the lead of the industrial music article. You might want to take a look and share your opinion. Thanks. —Torchiest ^talk/_edits 14:40, 28 December 2010 (UTC)

Divineofficer

Hi. I am encouraging Divineofficer to discuss the edits he wishes to make on talkpages rather than simply revert war. Hopefully this process has started. Fainites ^barleyscribs 23:58, 29 December 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I know. Divineofficer has now put his proposed additions/reasons/sources on the talkpage and is awaiting a response. I've pointed him in the direction of WP:OR. Fainites ^barleyscribs 10:56, 30 December 2010 (UTC)
