Talk:24-7 Spyz

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Onlyslighted, while some of the additions you've added are greatly appreciated, you don't need to Wiki-link every name and title, especially since a lot of them don't have entries at the moment. Also, you removed several important events, such as the CBGB's performance that led Jimi Hazel to reform the band. JohnBWatt

I am creating pages for those links. For instance, the DVD and the page for Heavy Metal Soul By the Pound were created but you deleted the hot links. Also, the CBGB's thing was never deleted. Please let me work on this page for now and maybe we can come to a consensus tomorrow.

You're not supposed to make the links first. Make the pages and THEN add the links and stop removing important information such as real names and events. Also, 68.112.26.95, how is the article more factual with Onlyslighted's information. One fact was added. He DID remove the CBGB's reference, as well as Fluid's real name, which is listed as such on Temporarily Disconnected. JohnBWatt

What was removed? Again, the CBGB's thing you claimed was missing is still there. And the misuse of punctuation and sentence structure must be addressed and corrected. Erroneous commas, incorrect use of words and phrases, etc., should not be re-entered. I have expanded this article without deleting any important information - onlyslighted

There may be punctuation errors here and there, as well as phrasing changes, in just about every article on this site. I don't care about those changes, for the most part. Do what you have to do. As far as expanding the article, you added the name of one early band member for which you don't even have a citation. The CBGB's reference is NOT still there though because you removed it a second time. It was the second show, in 2003 that led to the reforming of the band in 2004. You keep removing the information on the second show, not the first one. Also, if you're going to list Andar Khan as the original drummer, you might want to mention his leaving the band before mentioning Anthony Johnson being added. It makes it sound as if there were two drummers at one time. JohnBWatt

[edit] Drummer changes

Where is the information for the original drummer changes coming from. This is the third drummer now listed as the original and the only one I can find any proof of is Anthony Johnson. JohnBWatt

[edit] Walter Rattamus

According to Jimi Hazel and Rick Skatore Walter Rattamus is one of the only three founding members of the band that remains. This may not be a human member--but they view him as an integral part of the team.

Since, it appears that you've done the majority of content on this page--I'd like to ask that you keep Walter--even if he is listed lower as their ICON and Soul Counselor.

Jimi seemed awfully happy to see W.R. on the page when I talked to him today. He's getting out all the various incarnations of W.B that he and Rick have so that we can add them.

Your move, Senor.

Lastly, I scanned a new iteration of This Is... with a cleaner look and better colors. Somehow it came off without someone noting the talk/diff/history aspects. Do you mind tossing it back in? It looks ever so much better.

Rick Raymo

It's not the issue of having the character mentioned. It's the listing of him as a member. For all I care, list a section down below about the mascot itself and the history of it. Listing him as a member though is just silly. I'm not concerned over Jimi being happy with its inclusion. In fact, putting the mascot's history in its own section within the article is a better idea than giving it its own article, which I see you started, if only because I guarantee that someone will try to merge it anyway, if not delete it.
