Broken template[edit]

Broken template on the main page? I see red text: "Template:Infobox artist performance".

That's not what I came here for, though. Cyclocide was present at the 2007 Maker Faire in San Mateo, California. That isn't a tour, and they weren't at the 2006 one, so they are not annual participants. So, it is noteworthy enough to go on the main page? If so, where? I took pictures of them there, I give permission for any of them to be used in Wikipedia, but the page might be image-laden enough already. Cyclecide Photos --Elijah 17:46, 22 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cyclecide was at Maker Faire in 2006 [1] -- I worked the event. Yes, the broken template is annoying. I didn't figure out how to create a template. That is on personal TODO list. :) In the meantime, I'll remove it. I'd be grateful if you would create a Template for Artist groups... musicians have one (a subset of art, and -- arguably -- more of a craft with heavy corporate ties than a creative art).

Proposed structure:

Infobox artist performance 
| Name                = Cyclecide
| Img                 = 
| Img_capt            = 
| Img_size            = 
| Genre               = punk
| Alias               = Cyclecide Bike Rodeo
| Origin              = {{flagicon|USA}} [[San Franciso, California]],[[United States]]
| Genre               = [[Rhythm and blues|R&B]]
| Commercial          = 
| Years_active        = [[1998 in art|1998]]-present
| Associated_acts     = Los Banos, [[Lifesize Mouse Trap]]
| URL                 = www.cyclecide.com
| Current_members     = Jarico<br />Linda L.<br />August W.<br />Laird R.<br />Big Daddy<br />Rennessa L.<br />Spyder<br />Rudy R.<br />Jay B.<br />Rose H.<br />Mark P.<br />Summer B.<br />
| Past_members        = Rat Girl<br />Erin P.<br />
| Notable_acts        = [[Tall bike]] Jousting, Bicycle [[Mosh]], Altered Bikes

Cleanup tag[edit]

I removed the cleanup tag. Please either clean up your self or leave a message on this discussion of what needs to be done. Thanks! Rururudy 19:38, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I thought it was fairly obvious the article needed cleanup, sorry if not. I often tag articles that need editing because I don't have time to edit them myself. Oh well, now I am doing it on the government's time. Way to stick it to the man, eh? I hope it looks better--as I noted in my edit summary, some of the sections could still use some work. Let me know if you have questions. Happy cycling! Katr67 20:37, 5 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

What I think should be done:

improve lead
change "about" section. (what is meant with "about"? The entire article is about cyclecide...
"notable acts". Is this worth a section?
"Tours" I don't know if it is important, but they should be in chronological order, oldest first. (MoS!)--EdgeNavidad (talk) 16:57, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Removed from WikiProject Organized Crime[edit]

I have removed this article from membership of WikiProject Organized Crime because this article is about a performance bicycle club, not a criminal organization. While, these clubs have sometimes been called bicycle gangs, they do not generally appear to be involved in crime, organised or otherwise. - Cameron Dewe (talk) 08:42, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
