Talk:Alternative Press (music magazine)

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Unfortunately, most of the links here are expecting it to be about Alternative Press the record label. Disambiguation? Morwen 17:12, May 22, 2004 (UTC)

Fair point. Meaning this should be listed under Alternative Media (which will make some of the language less clanky too)? So I'll put a stub under Alternative Press, relocate this article under Alternative Media and trawl the Alternative Press links to make them direct to Alternative Media instead if that is their intention. Make sense? Camipco 20:40, May 22, 2004

For the alternative press, I would suggest the use of the lowercase form alternative press? Morwen 20:43, May 22, 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Proposed changes

The broad category Alternative press should not have been moved to Alternative media. Perhaps we need a disambiguation page. There are dozens of books on the alternative press (print) around the world. How about:

I just ran into this page and will definitely look into over-hauling it. We should just redirect/merge this page to Alternative Press (magazine). I'm going to look into what I can do for this article. We definitely do need a disambig. page as well. -Myxomatosis 08:45, 26 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Recent Issues

[edit] Removal

  • I removed the current staff section as it was unencyclopedic (look at Time (magazine) as an example. It was:

==Current staff== PRESIDENT/FOUNDER: Mike Shea

PUBLISHER: Norman Wonderly

GENERAL MANAGER: Katherine Poecze

PHOTOGRAPHY EDITOR/PRODUCTION DIRECTOR: Norman Wonderly

EDITOR IN CHIEF: Jason Pettigrew

MANAGING EDITOR: Leslie Simon

MUSIC EDITOR: Scott Heisel

ASSOCIATE EDITOR: Tim Karan

COPY EDITOR: Rachel Lux

ART DIRECTOR: Christopher Benton

ART/ASSOCIATE/WEBMASTER: Robert Ortenzi

PRODUCTION MANAGER: John Millin

ART/PRODUCTION ASSISTANT: Ted Barnes

ASSISTANT AD DIRECTOR/ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE (MUSIC): Dawn Marie Burns

MARKETING DIRECTOR/ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE (INDIE FASHION/APPAREL): Aaron Wilson

ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE (ELECTRONICS/VIDEO GAMES): Jessie Kelkenberg

ACCOUNT EXECUTIVE (FOOD/BEVERAGES/AUTO): Chris Helscher

SUBSCRIPTIONS MANAGER: Angela Hetrick

OFFICE ASSISTANT: Eddie Fleisher

  • I also removed the recent issue section as it was also unencyclopedic. It could easily go to perhaps List of issues of Alternative Press or something similar like Person of the Year.

I'm confused. Is this only photocopies online, or can you actually have it sent to you once a month through the mail? Cuz, if it can be sent through the mail, I'd really like to get it. íslenskur fellibylur #12 (samtal) 02:07, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
