[edit] Hello

Hello, I noticed you edited a Hip Hop related article. If you wish you can join the new Hip Hop Wikiproject. --Chubdub 16:29, 16 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] re:The Wu-Tang Article

The Wu-Tang Clan article is well-written, but it lacks refrences and citations (see WP:CITE). Plus, I have requested that a Timeline of album releases and events be made and audio samples inserted.

Thanks for the suggestions.--Gяaρнic 03:10, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

Also, a "Style and influences' section would be great. When all of this is done, this article should be a Wikipedia: Featured Article in no time. And if you need help on the timeline, I could be of some use.

Thanks. I could use help with a lot of the "flood" solos and on what events to include. And now that I think about it, I could really use help with sources, mostly with stuff like Cuban Linx/Ironman/Liquid Swords being the fan favorites, Deck being the outstanding member on Wu-Tang Forever, etc. It's all stuff thats pretty clear to anyone who has talked with other fans but it's going to be very hard to find sources to back it up. Can you source message board threads? Haha most likely not. Hopefully we or someone can figure something out though. I would source old Source and XXL articles/reviews if I still had any of them--Gяaρнic 15:55, 10 May 2006 (UTC)

If you search individual flood album on Amazon, they should provide release dates. As for sources, it would be best to stick with articles, editorial, and even album reviews instead of Messegebord Threads. I am quite busy at this moment, and will not be able to search for sources until the weekend. Until then, you can identify places in the articles which need citations by placing {{fact}} next to it. That will be a big help.

On another note, I think you should avoid using [ ~~~~~(website source)~~~~ ] as a means of citing your sources. For potiental featured articles, it would be best to organize external links according to {{Cite web}}. In other words, the crruent citation system needs to be converted to the <ref> system (see WP:FOOTNOTEs). Chubdub 21:22, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

One last thing. Maybe you could consider replacing the current timeline with a Meta Timelime (See Tupac Shakur timeline for an example). Oh yeah, and the lead to the article needs to be expanded, and a "Musical style and trademark" section would be great. Thanks for listening to my advice! Chubdub 21:28, 11 May 2006 (UTC)

Oh yeah. For the influence section, you should include how the Wu-Tang Clan played a pivotal role in the East Coast renaissance of the mid-1990s, their impact within hardcore hip hop, and you ought to elaborate on the influence of RZA's production style (it is claimed that he influenced producers like Kayne West, Just Blaze, and The Alchemist).

I was joking about the message board thing, but thanks for the tips. --Gяaρнic 03:36, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

I've taken the oppurtunity to identify areas that need citations. I hope that this will help you in your quest for references. Chubdub 12:46, 13 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The golden age of hip hop for deletion?

I see that The golden age of hip hop is up for deletion. I wonder what you think of this. P.O.N.Y. 17:38, 21 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:Wutanglive.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:Wutanglive.jpg. I notice the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this file yourself, then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use it on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you did not create the file yourself, then you need to specify where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the file also doesn't have a copyright tag, then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media meets the criteria at Wikipedia:Fair use, use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other files, consider checking that you have specified their source and tagged them, too. You can find a list of files you have uploaded by following this link. Unsourced and untagged images may be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Nv8200p talk 15:36, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

I believe it's a screenshot from their live concert DVD which is allowable as far as I know. I submitted it a long time ago so I don't recall whether or not I mislabeled it. I guess it would be filed under "movie screenshot" but I don't know the tag for it. --Gяaρнic 16:35, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Punk music

Whats up? Hi, I'm trying to gather some more interest and support for the Wikipedia:WikiProject Punk music. Please check out the topics and lets get our WikiProject to function better. Recently, I've taken an interest in the Wikipedia:WikiProject hip hop and I consider that WikiProject to be better developed. I am now writing to usernames on the hiphopWP who might be interested in helping with the punkmusicWP. Hopefully we can all work together to improve articles relating to punk as has been done well with hip hop. Finally, I am trying to gather support and opinions concerning the punk house article and specifically the Theta Beta Potata article which is currently in AfD (x2) at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Theta Beta Potata (second nomination). Please check it out and voice your opinion. Xsxex 09:08, 5 September 2006 (UTC)
