Which version of Rob Zombies Dragula are played in Jet Set Radio?

Video. Which version of the song are played in this video? Is it the original song or is it Dragula (Si Non Oscillas, Noli Tintinnare Mix)? Jet Set Radio says it's the remix while other sites like Gamefaq or the Jet Set Radio Wiki are saying it's the original version. --193.163.223.68 (talk) 10:25, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

Here is Rob Zombie's official video for the original version of Dragula. You're allowed to listen to both and decide for yourself. --Jayron32 17:26, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

BBC online 'Your pictures' contest alerts?

These are the most recent BBC online 'Your Pictures' winners.

Is there a way I can arrange to be informed by email about upcoming contest themes? I know that I could go to a page and get the information, but I usually forget, especially as I don't always notice the current results popping up on the main page. I can't find anything useful at the 'Contact the BBC' link .Hayttom 10:49, 10 August 2014 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hayttom (talk • contribs)

This page sets the themes for the next few weeks, but I didn't see any sort of theme notification email service. The page does say this: "If you have any questions then please email..." so you could send an email to that address and ask about it.Dreamahighway (talk) 23:01, 11 August 2014 (UTC)

That'll do, thanks very much! Hayttom 20:59, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

DJ Swezzle

Hi guys, I am wanting to make an article about a singer/songwriter called DJ Swezzle, but I don't know whether he is 'notable' or not. He has released several albums and has a wide range of songs on YouTube, but would Wikipedia rules consider DJ Swezzle notable? --Skiffle Vond (talk) 15:40, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

WP:BAND is the relevant guideline. If he's not had anything in the charts or won any awards or major competitions, we're back to WP:GNG ("the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in reliable sources"). If there are (say) magazine articles about him, he'll be OK - if not, merely releasing albums (that the critics haven't written about) isn't, I'm afraid, enough.

I think there are magazine articles about him but my browser is limited. Could a Wikipedia user help me out by double checking whether DJ Swezzle is notable? --Skiffle Vond (talk) 16:02, 10 August 2014 (UTC)

Searches on Google and Highbeam don't find anything suggesting notability (or, in Highbeam's case, anything at all). This does not prove that DJ Swezzle is non-notable, but it does imply that showing notability would be quite difficult. John M Baker (talk) 15:00, 11 August 2014 (UTC)
