[edit] List-class articles
Playing around, I notice this project doesn't recognize List-class articles, even though it does recognize FL articles. Is that a mistake? – Muboshgu (talk) 15:51, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
- We don't use list class, for it's more helpful for us to gauge the quality of each list, just as the Discographies WikiProject does (which is sensible, given most of our lists are discographies). WesleyDodds (talk) 08:44, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
[edit] Ongoing projects
Hey it's been a while since we've had big drives here, but feel free to mention any alt-rock articles you're doing heavy work on here, so we can pool efforts and experience together. WesleyDodds (talk) 13:16, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
[edit] WikiProject Nine Inch Nails
A notice on WikiProject Nine Inch Nails explains that that project has been merged with this one, but the actual merger, which should have resulted in a page called Wikipedia:WikiProject Alternative music/Nine Inch Nails, was never done. What do members here want to do Nine Inch Nails? Do you want it merged? Thanks. --Kleinzach 14:59, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
[edit] Freak Folk/Nu-Folk
These are currently merged when they refer to different eras, different sounds. I don't know enough to write them but I do know the current situation is awful. Thinking of taking down references to nu-folk in articles so people don't get confused. Please help. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.174.168.6 (talk) 23:16, 28 January 2012 (UTC)
[edit] WikiWomen's History Month
Hi everyone. March is Women's History Month and I'm hoping a few folks here at WP:Alt music will have interest in putting on events related to women's roles in alternative music; as performers, promoters, producers, label owners, etc. We've created an event page on English Wikipedia (please translate!) and I hope you'll find the inspiration to participate. These events can take place off wiki, like edit-a-thons, or on wiki, such as themes and translations. Please visit the page here: WikiWomen's History Month. Thanks for your consideration and I look forward to seeing events take place! SarahStierch (talk) 19:10, 1 February 2012 (UTC)
Doing some work on the above-mentioned article; would appreciate some help. What a pro (talk) is on fire. 10:21, 20 February 2012 (UTC)
I've been considering the above article, about a Bauhaus single that was only released as a free addition to early copies of the Press the Eject and Give Me the Tape LP. It has several issues, including:
- The article suffered a drive-by renaming in 2009, changing the name from "Satori in Paris (single)" to "Satori in Paris (song)", in spite of the fact that there is no song on the single named "Satori in Paris". The single (both sides of which were recorded live in Paris) seems to have been named for the Jack Kerouac novella Satori in Paris, which is why that simpler article name is not available.
- The article is tagged as unreferenced. I've got some good books on Bauhaus that I could use to add references, but I have not yet done so, because....
- The article is also tagged as probably not meeting Wikipedia:Notability (music) and I have come to agree with that assessment.
After some thought over the past few days, my new idea is to merge "Satori in Paris (song)" into Press the Eject and Give Me the Tape, creating a new section for the single. Any disagreement or counter-proposals? -- Foetusized (talk) 14:24, 2 March 2012 (UTC)
