Talk:Kyle Ward
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Recommend Article for Deletion
It's pretty clear this guy is using this page as a self-promotion; hell, on some forums he even admits to having other people set up the page for him. And really the whole is pretty pointless anywho. yay/nay?
- Nay. I started this page and I've never talked to Kyle Ward nor do I have much connection with the ITG community. How is that at all self-promotion? JeffreyAtW 21:44, 24 October 2006 (UTC)
- Nay. I seriously doubt there is a conspiracy by the person named here to advertise on Wikipedia. I know him personally and while he knows 'of' the page, he's insinuated to me in the past that he doesn't take to altering it. Nor do I. Regardless, the way this Recommend is brought up ("really the whole thing is pretty pointless") almost makes it sound like it's for a personal reason. Is it pointless? Do you believe so? Why?
- It may seem pretty clear to you, but I'm not sure what forum posts you're referring to where Kyle "admits" to having the page set up for him. I know he has other people manage kyle-ward.com; are you sure you're not misinterpreting? In any case, please sign comments! I'd even suggest making an account, since I get the impression from other Wikipedia edits that you're in a situation where you don't have exclusive control over your IP; a dorm sharing a network, right? Accounts solve those issues, no? Plaguefox 23:05, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
- Nay. As he did not make this page, and did not ask the person who started this articale, I do not see this as self-promotion. Also, as someone made this page, with others editing it without his knowledge, I see that Kyle Ward is infact a notable person on wikipedia.-jonphamta 19:30, 28 October 2006 (UTC) (PS. Plaguefox is watching ;) )
Removed JS14 as one of Kyle Ward's aliases. Its clear that JS14 is not him. I've looked in his FAQ's and found that he liked the July -Euro Remix- as in terms of it was made by someone else.
Removed Affinity, it is NOT Kyle, its another artist from Seattle. --凸 02:33, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Keel is used once in ITG if I am not mistaken, in the the title for the marathon course "Keel over"

[edit] Vocabulary
Something needs to be done about the part in the article where Kyle's pseudonyms are discussed. In particular, "x song is a good example of x name's style," is far too prevalent throughout. There needs to be variety.

[edit] Genre of music mentioned is wrong.
"In the Groove and In the Groove 2 featured four notoriously difficult Speedcore songs - Pandemonium, VerTex, Energizer, and VerTex2"
Those four songs are not speedcore. Speedcore centers around electronic percussion at high speeds (just look at the Wikipedia article on it). In addition, the high BPM of the songs that is shown on ITG is twice the actual BPM for Pandemonium and Energizer (Pandemonium is listed as 330 BPM, but it's actually 165 BPM; Energizer is listed as 75-303 BPM, but it's actually 151.5 BPM). Personally, I think that Pandemonium and Energizer are much closer to acid techno or hard acid techno (based on listening to samples from "Ishkur's Guide To Electronic Music" (http://www.di.fm/edmguide/edmguide.html)) than speedcore. As for VerTex and VerTex^2, it's hard to identify the genre, but it's closest to hardcore techno. However, NONE of the ZiGZaG songs in the "In The Groove" series are speedcore.
Edited music information about ZiGZaG, replaced "speedcore" in 2 places with more accurate terms for ZiGZaG's music.
