July WMAU Melbourne Meetup

Hi, At last month's June meetup we discussed the idea of setting up a Training Course at a University of the Third Age (U3A) to be held in 2013 and named Becoming a Wikipedia editor. In order to get this course up and running we are calling for volunteers to help develop the idea, and either tutor part of the course, or provide one on one help to students in the class. All local Wikipedians are welcome to discuss this at our 11am meetup to be held this Sunday on 22 July. Please add your name to the attending list at Wikipedia:Meetup/Melbourne 23. Food and beverages are provided. Cuddy Wifter (talk) 02:57, 13 July 2012 (UTC)

CBS Records

At one point you had edited CBS Records, please join us at Talk:CBS Records to help decide what that page should entail. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 03:04, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for inviting me Richard, I would be delighted to join this discussion. Regards Simon Rashleigh 07:17, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

Can you revert the article from CBS Records (2006) to "CBS Records" so we can restore the edit history and be back to where we were for the consensus on the talk page. We now have 1,300 incoming links to a disambiguation page. We should have multiple articles but the landing page for the 1,300 links should be the proper business entity "CBS Records". None of the links are for CBS Records (2006). He was not supposed to cut and paste without also moving the edit history. Once the article is back we can begin to distinguish between CBS Records and CBS Records International. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 22:41, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

I think we need to let the dust settle first Richard, as its all happening too quick with edits and counter edits. Let's see what happens over the next 48 hours to see if this is fixed by the author of those changes you mentioned. Cheers Simon Simon Rashleigh 02:42, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

The American Columbia/Philips association began in 1951 as shown at [1] when Philips started its record company and made the deal with American Columbia which ended its decades long deal with EMI over EMI's resistence to issuing LPs which Columbia developed. EMI relented and began issuing LPs in 1952 as shown at [2]. As shown at [3], Philips' acquisition of Mercury Records paved the way for Columbia to start its own international arm which had to be called CBS Records. Philips began marketing CBS label recordings in 1962 as shown at [4]. The association with Philips ended in 1965 after CBS bought Oriole Records as shown at [5].

Your recent edits

Hello. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. You could also click on the signature button or located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your username or IP address and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when they said it. Thank you. --SineBot (talk) 07:37, 28 August 2012 (UTC)

CBS consensus debate reopened

Can you express an opinion one way or the other at Talk:CBS Records. There are now two new choices based on the articles as they stand now. We can't go back to whatever the original consensus was, since changes have been made that obviate the original choices. --Richard Arthur Norton (1958- ) (talk) 18:32, 29 August 2012 (UTC)

Nothing happens to the CBS Records International page. It remains part of the CBS Records DAB page. Steelbeard1 (talk) 11:24, 31 August 2012 (UTC)

Formal mediation has been requested

The Mediation Committee has received a request for formal mediation of the dispute relating to "CBS Records". As an editor concerned in this dispute, you are invited to participate in the mediation. Mediation is a voluntary process which resolves a dispute over article content by facilitation, consensus-building, and compromise among the involved editors. After reviewing the request page, the formal mediation policy, and the guide to formal mediation, please indicate in the "party agreement" section whether you agree to participate. Because requests must be responded to by the Mediation Committee within seven days, please respond to the request by 12 September 2012.

Discussion relating to the mediation request is welcome at the case talk page. Thank you.
