[edit] Bumper race
Your article Bumper race has appeared in the Dead End Pages list because it is not wikified. Please consult the Wikipedia Guide to Layout for more information on how to write a good, wikified article. I would encourage you to revisit your submissions and {{wikify}} them. Thanks and happy editing! James084 22:25, 23 February 2006 (UTC)
[edit] List of Songs Over 15 minutes in length
That list is egregious enough without you vandalising the guidance at the top.--feline1 09:55, 16 April 2006 (UTC)
[edit] FA Cup Final 2006
Sorry that I beat you to writing the match report. You write well, so don't be shy if you wish to modify what I've put.

[edit] Feel (the Verve song)
You were born in 1991? Christ - it takes a lot to make me feel old, but you just went and did it. I mean, you would have been 1 when that song came out. At least I was a little older than that. Anyway, the point is that Wikipedia is not the place for "interpretations". Those count as "original research", which is not allowed. You can link to someone else's "interpretation", if you like, provided the source has some merit and cachet (ie, it's not someone's fan page). - Maggie --64.229.64.62 03:09, 12 August 2006 (UTC)
- Incidentally, it's my understanding that the person "dead on the floor" in "Feel" (and also "The Sun the Sea") has either just shot up heroin, or has just gotten through having sex with the narrator. - Maggie --64.229.64.62 15:04, 14 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Dates on MusicBrainz
Hi,
You should set a prefered date/time format in your prefs, and links like that will render properly and intuitively for you... --Azertus 19:04, 20 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] The Paint
I'm afraid there is perhaps a slight problem with the article you created, The Paint. You have listed no references for this band, and a rather thorough google search returns zero results on any of the bands songs or members. Based on the statistitcs purported in your article, the band does seem to meet the criteria for notability for bands and musicians, but as such the very existence of the band is unverifiable. Please indicate some form of reference, or this article will probably be listed for deletion. Thank you so much.--SweetNeo85 21:48, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

- No problem at all. Nominated it for speedy deletion.--SweetNeo85 23:32, 31 August 2006 (UTC)

Thanks for uploading Image:Vervecamdenlive.jpg. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable under fair use (see our fair use policy).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any fair use images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you.

[edit] WikiProject Rock music invitation
Hello WikiProject Alternative music member.
WikiProject Alternative music, in my eyes, has proved to be successful "improving the encyclopaedic coverage of articles relating to alternative rock", and improving their quality as well. One specific example I have witnessed is The Smashing Pumpkins article. The page has gone from a mediocre work, to GA status, to FA nomination. Only appropriate, as the Pumpkins are undeniably one of the most influential alternative rock bands on the 1990's and beyond.
This is the stuff I wish to achieve with the somewhat recently ressurected WikiProject Rock music. I hope to also attract attention to rock music articles of all sorts, and hopefully change some to GA or FA status. I invite you to come join us, and not only be a member of alternative Wikipedians, but the rockin' ones as well.
Rock on.

[edit] Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!
SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.
If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.
P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 17:18, 25 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] For Tomorrow
Sure. I have to go to a meeting, but I'll try to add some more comments to the talk page in two hours or so. In the meantime, you might consider looking at some featured articles about songs (off the top of my head, Cool (song), Hollaback Girl, Yesterday (song), and Hey Jude).
