Blue Stars Drum and Bugle Corps

Thanks for taking a stab at identifying the editorial needs for this article. Unfortunately, your WP:POV tag was reverted as a "drive-by tag." I really don't know how to deal with editing the article without getting into an edit war with User:GWFrog, as he reverts all edits on the dozens of drum and bugle corps articles he's worked on. Any suggestions? Mesconsing (talk) 22:31, 5 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi Dementia13. I've declined the GOCE request now. Thanks for the catch. @Mesconsing, is it time for Dispute Resolution? --Stfg (talk) 17:57, 7 July 2012 (UTC)

	The Copyeditor's Barnstar
	For your help in getting Episode 2 (Twin Peaks) to Featured status; I doubt the process would have been as smooth or successful without your prose polishes. :) GRAPPLE X 11:37, 26 July 2012 (UTC)

Thanks and congratulations. That, to my knowledge, is the first article I've helped bring to that level. I'm glad to have that as my first, because David Lynch is my favorite director. I like the work you've done on that article, and I'm glad that it's been recognized. Dementia13 (talk) 00:06, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Copy editing favor

Hey, do you think you could do a copy edit of History of Western role-playing video games? I'd do it myself, but it's in the middle of WP:FAC and I've already done some technical fixes and cast a partial support for it, so I'd like to avoid getting too involved so there's no impropriety. I'd recommended getting a copy edit during it's WP:GAN last month, and a couple people have recommended it in the current discussion. If you're not able, I totally understand. Thanks. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 15:35, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

OK. Sounds like an interesting subject, too. Dementia13 (talk) 16:56, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Great! And yes, it is; I really enjoyed reviewing it. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 17:07, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

I put it on the GOCE requests page to make sure you get proper credit for it. —Torchiest ^talk_edits 17:45, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

MIDI (reply)

Re your msg of 18 August: be glad to help with a MIDI WikiProject. It has been quite a while since I glanced through many articles, but as I recall most were created piecemeal BC (before CITATIONS) and were helpful but not well integrated. I'm familiar with the electronics and specs (programmed some translation tables once) and still have a couple of reference books somewhere. Twang (talk) 03:11, 24 August 2012 (UTC)

I pulled the ce tag out of the article before noticing that you were working the article. Removing that tag should help prevent anyone else from making that same mistake, so I left it out. Sorry if it caused any confusion. --Nouniquenames 23:09, 30 September 2012 (UTC)

Vital Articles/Expanded: include or delete Godzilla from the list of 50 all-time greatest movies?

Dementia, I have responded to your comment in the talk page discussion about the 1954 movie Godzilla, and I would ask you to reconsider your position. If you believe that the consequences of nuclear war and nuclear proliferation are not given sufficient attention on the overall VA/E list of topics, I would suggest that you address that by proposing the addition of other directly related topics to the VA/E list. Using Godzilla as some sort of "proxy" for addressing this issue avoids the more important question of what topics directly related to nuclear war and nuclear proliferation should be included. Thanks. Dirtlawyer1 (talk) 14:28, 25 May 2013 (UTC)

Progressive rock

Hi Dementia 13,

As you have noticed, I have updated the Progressive rock article 22 times over the past few days and the List of progressive rock bands article 21 times.

As you also would have noticed, 42 of these 43 updates were "legitimate" updates. Therefore, you must be scratching your head as to why an established Wikipedia editor such as myself (who is willing to spend so much time and energy in cleaning up two articles) would also be willing to "vandalise" an article.

This is the "vandalism" edit I am referring to: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_progressive_rock_bands&diff=prev&oldid=556673891

This "vandalism" was a complete accident. Let me explain...

I was editing articles (mostly on Progressive rock) between 20:17 (May 23rd) and 01:50 (May 24th). I had also been reading the List of progressive rock bands article, which I planned to edit during my "next stint" on Wikipedia.

That "next stint" in question (02:09-03:56 on May 25), I edited articles mostly on List of progressive rock bands. I noticed that 20 edits had been made to that particular article since I last visited it so I selected the revision of 16:47 on May 23 so it read exactly as it read when I had previously visited the page.

However, having been reading the page for quite a while, I completely forgot it was an older revision. See revision in question: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=List_of_progressive_rock_bands&oldid=556452435

All I intended to do for this particular edit was to change "Amon Duul II" so it read "Amon Düül II". Having realised my error, I am completely mortified and can only apologise for deleting what appears to be 4-5 hours worth of edits.

Having explained the circumstances surrounding my edit, it is hopefully clear to you that my edit was made in good faith.

I would therefore like to ask you if you wouldn't mind amending the comments you made on my talk page to reflect this and ultimately remove the warning.

I take the comments on board regarding future tweaks on the Progressive rock article and I won't be making any alterations to the article in the near future.

All the best,

Standingfish (talk) 05:59, 26 May 2013 (UTC)

Neo-Prog & Twelfth Night

OK, not sure if this is the correct medium to put the case.

My main angle is being an "eye witness" in the early 80's and seeing a lot of those bands on a regular basis. Twelfth Night were one of the more innovative of the neo-progs (as they now seem to be termed) with more of a harsh edge (reflecting the realities of a country in decline and influence of harsher punk & NWOBHM music) and with some very experimental segments, along with rockier parts, and not just reproducing that early Genesis sound that most of the others seemed to aspire to. Other bands were on the scene, but Solstice were not around much and I'm afraid I'd not heard of Saga until reading this article.

It is difficult to find supporting evidence, as the music papers of the time don't seem to be online and I won't be trying to find physical copies!

A few fleeting references I've found online:

Rocking the Classics: Edward Macan References to the Marquee Club playing a seminal role for prog, and whilst referencing a number of the bands, it states "Twelfth Night was something of an unofficial house band in the 80s"

Not sure if you are willing to accept other websites as valid sources:

http://www.progarchives.com/artist.asp?id=339

"The "MANN-era" music will live on in prog as being something particularly special, as it goes several steps further than even FISH-era MARILLION, with whom the band are often (mistakenly) compared"

http://www.trebuchet-magazine.com/twelfth-night-live-and-let-live/ "Back in the early 1980s, The Reading-based band Twelfth Night were one of the leading lights of the so-called “Neo-prog” movement: the second wave of prog-rock bands who combined the complexity and ambition of progressive rock with the DIY ethos of punk."

Update: Dec 2015: The original list of examples has been removed from the article, so this latest addition is "for the record". In the 2015 Progzilla Listener's poll (http://www.progzilla.com/poll/), Twelfth Night were the only "neo-prog" band to make it into the top 10. TN had 6 entries in the top 100 (8,25,32,36,40,54) average postion 32, compared to Marillion (also 6 entries but 13,34,57,82,87,89, so all lower placed than Twelfth Night equivalent and only averaging position 60; IQ only had 3 entries, Pallas 1 and Saga don't feature at all. This could support the argument that Twelfth Night have a much greater legacy than they are credited with by authors are quoted as "references" but who are probably compiling hearsay and weren't actually present at the time.

By the way, the Marillion music clip attached to this article is not a good representation of the style. Marillion became a lot more mainstream after the departure of Fish, so to provide a useful reference, you really need something from the Fish era.....

Prog and A82

Hi. Sorry about procrastinating over the GA review for Progressive Rock, it's those samples I just want to check. I will aim to get it all closed down tomorrow, hopefully. In the meantime, if you're waiting for me to sign it off, I don't suppose you could cast your eye over A82 road? I started off work yesterday evening to see if there was a GA lurking in it, and I'm now seriously contemplating sending it straight to FAC - I'm pretty sure the comprehensiveness and sources all past muster and there are a bucketload of free images. Before I do, I'd like a good couple of copyeditors to go over it. Ritchie333 ^{(talk) (cont)} 18:19, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

Had a quick look, I'm brain dead. I'll do more later. The sentence about "memorable driving experiences" was troublesome: See if you like what I did. Dementia13 (talk) 02:30, 11 July 2013 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Progressive rock

The article Progressive rock you nominated as a good article has passed ; see Talk:Progressive rock for comments about the article. Well done! In particular, during my brief time on the article, I've also been impressed at your diligence at keeping the article focused and on topic, and not degenerating into a "here's a list of everyone's favourite bands" article (as Mellotron still is), so well done for that.

Hi, I'm looking to help revamp the Percy Jackson Task-force, a project dedicated to maintaining articles related to Rick Riordan and Percy Jackson & the Olympians.

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Excerpt from "Starless" by King Crimson.ogg

Thank you for uploading File:Excerpt from "Starless" by King Crimson.ogg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Wikipedia:Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Wikipedia:Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.
