[edit] a quick tip

The IP that POV'd the Iron Maiden article is probably blocked user Leyasu. WP:HMM is a noble project but certain users believe the project's mandates supercede Wiki-policy...especially WP:CITE. I notice their genre swapping all the time. Of course IM is a NWoBHM band. Saxon, Angelwitch, Motorhead and <yick> Def Leppard...all NWoBHM bands. Your wiki-contributions have all been good. Eventually the POV pushers will just go away. Keep up the good work. 216.21.150.44 01:21, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

Wow, thanks a lot man! Zee 01:35, 14 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Maiden

Hello, I guess you 're new to Wikipedia. Don't go on reverting unless there is a reason. If you have any problem discuss it in tha talk page. Don't act hastily. Remember, Wikipedia is a public domain, thus a democracy. Your whims won't work here. So, from next time be responsible.

[edit] live albums from Maiden

you reverted my "six live albums" back to nine in the Iron Maiden article. Please elaborate on how you come to 9: 1. Live After Death 2. A Real LIve One 3. A Real Dead One 4. Live at Donington 5. Rock In Rio 6. Death on the Road

Maiden England is not a normal live album. it was only released on video and in very limited supply as video with cd. Maiden Japan is an EP, just as the "live +1" release. Beast Over Hammersmith and LIve at the BBC are only available in a very limited (and expensive) boxset, and are not available outside of that. A Real Live Dead One is a combination of A Real LIve One and A Real Dead One, now on 1 double-cd instead of 2 separate cds.

[edit] Spaces before headings

Something tells me you MUST have something better to do than comment on spaces before headings. There's so many more important things to worry about in life. I find it much easier to read, and thousands of Wiki pages are set up exactly the same way.

[edit] tourtitles in italic

Please stop reverting the italics in the tour titles of Iron Maiden tours. Read Wikipedia:Manual_of_Style chapter 1 Disputes over style issues ("when either of two styles is acceptable, it is inappropriate for a Wikipedia editor to change from one style to another unless there is some substantial reason for the change") and chapter 5.1 Italics: titles. It's a title, put it in Italics. For some reason songtitles are put between quotes, but put other titles in italics.

[edit] Dude what the hell

I've used Wikipedia for something like a year now and made well over 500 edits. And you're just telling me 'welcome' like I'm new? I'm not offended, just wondering if I missed some detail there. (The Elfoid 19:29, 17 August 2006 (UTC))

Thanks :D

[edit] Adrian Smith's legato?

As I'm sure you are aware, one of the pillars of Maiden's success has been the very different guitar styles of Adrian Smith and Dave Murray. I contend that it is Murray who has the smooth, fast legato, while Smith is tighter and more restrained. Evidence of Smith's capability with regard to 'shredding' can be heard in the final phrase of his solo from 'Hallowed Be Thy Name' from 'Live After Death' and in the solo from 'Wasted Years'. Loved your article but be prepared to be corrected on points of music theory. Legato means 'smooth and flowing', surely adjectives better applied to Murray's style than Smith's.--Bren264 09:18, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Brighter Than a Thousand Suns (song)

I think the song is notable, but you are probably in a better position to expand it than I am, since you know a lot about Iron Maiden. I'm not going to expand it, but I would be grateful if you would. --TruthbringerToronto (Talk | contribs) 04:44, 7 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Paul Di'Anno Maiden albums

Wouldn't adding EP after the Maiden Japan entry be more complete, rather than just leaving Maiden Japan out? After all, the Soundhouse Tapes are listed as an EP. --Litpho 09:27, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Notice to Guitarist Project members

An Admin, unfamiliar with the project, has nominated our template-Template:Guitarist infobox-for deletion. I have added a vote to keep it...more would help. Anger22 12:08, 8 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] You seem to do alot of non-minor editing marked as minor

copied from Wikipedia:How to edit a page

Minor edits See also Wikipedia:Minor edit

When editing an article page on this site, a logged-in user can mark that edit as being "minor". Minor edits generally mean spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearrangement of text. It is possible to "hide" minor edits when viewing the recent changes. Marking a significant change as a minor edit is considered bad behavior, especially when it involves the deletion of some text. If you accidentally mark an edit as minor, you should edit the source once more, mark it major (or, rather, ensure that the check-box for "This is a minor edit" is not checked), and, in the summary, state that the previous change was a major one.-Crunchy Numbers 14:00, 29 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Preview Button

I actually do use the preview button, but alas I'm human. In fact, I've been editing the Iron Maiden article and adding inline citations, because if nobody else can be bothered it'll lose its FA star. It's currently under Featured Article Review, and if the concerns aren't addressed by 4 weeks from now then Iron Maiden is FA no more. LuciferMorgan 09:21, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Inline Citations

The inline citation requests are there because article's on Wikipedia need inline citations for verifiability. I reverted your edit, and I'll do it again if the citation requests are removed. Right now the article reads like fancruft rubbish, and kisses Iron Maiden's ass all over the place. I'm a fan of the band, but this is an encyclopaedia, not a juvenile fansite. If you wish to quote info from a DVD then inline cite, but frankly I nor anyone else in the Wiki community would class a quote from a Maiden DVD as proof their first album was released to critical and commercial success - it contravenes NPOV. LuciferMorgan 16:57, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

I'd like to apologise if I was a little brisk above, though I hope you can understand my initial annoyance. As a fellow Iron Maiden fan, I guess we can both mutually agree that we wish to keep the article as an FA. LuciferMorgan 17:13, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Please do not remove citation needed tags

Please refrain from moving cite tags from Iron Maiden. WP:V requires that a reliable source be added for any statement requrested by another editor, and several editors are attempting to correctly reference the article. It takes a lot of work to read through the article to determine what facts need to be cited, and your removal of those tags creates extra work for other editors.

[edit] WikiProject Disambiguation Talk Request

This is a form message being sent to all WikiProject Disambiguation participants. I may have found your page based on your contributions or your link repair user box on your user page. If you are not a member, please consider including your name on the project page. I recently left a proposed banner idea on the WikiProject Disambiguation talk page and I would appreciate any input you could provide. Before it can be approved or denied, I would prefer a lot of feedback from multiple participants in the project. So if you have the time please join in the discussion to help improve the WikiProject. Keep up the good work in link repair and thanks for your time. Nehrams2020 23:15, 9 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nicko McBrain - your revert

The 'recent interview' I mentioned I will find proof of, I think its on the Matter of Life and Death page on Wikipedia. Its the one where some fan won the chance to talk to Janick and Nicko via some forum.

(The Elfoid 09:53, 10 October 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Paul Di'Anno

I take your point on the EP/LP thing, but can would you approve my creating a seperate list that includes Metal for Muthers, Maiden Japan, Live +One and such? It is a discography, not a list of 'singles and albums' after all. (The Elfoid 09:48, 17 October 2006 (UTC))

[edit] Revert

The bit saying it's based on a book by Orson Card is utter bullshit, 110% fact as when you edit it says it's taken from the official bio - it ain't, I own the book and cannot find the quote. So it isn't "supposed", it's fact - if I keep repeating it maybe it'll actually sink in.

Feel free to re-insert more utter bullshit inaccuracies and make my effort harder to retain the article's FA status. LuciferMorgan 11:26, 19 October 2006 (UTC)
