Greetings - I know I'm supposed to be away, but I managed to get access to a computer so just had to check up on my watchlist! Thanks. --Xyrael T 09:12, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Metallica

Not sure what the problem is? I double checked it and it worked fine for me. I counted down the artist list too..just to check if the position had changed but it hadn't. Beatles # 1, Elvis # 2, Garth(yuck)Brooks # 3......# 18-Metallica with 57M albums sold. Perhaps, just to verify for yourself try the RIAA main page and go from there. Hope that helps. Cheers!

[edit] Your VandalProof Application

Dear Musikxpert,

Thank you for applying for VandalProof! (VP). As you may know, VP is a very powerful program, and in fact with the new 1.2 version release it has even more power. As such we must uphold strict protocols before approving a new applicant. Regretfully, I have chosen to decline your application at this time. The reason for this is that for security reasons, VandalProof's creator requires it's users to have made 250 edits to articles, which you have not. Please note it is nothing personal by any means, and we certainly welcome you to apply again in the not too distant future. Thank you for your interest in VandalProof. - Glen TC (Stollery) 01:59, 8 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Kudos on the HIM edit

Just last night I was contemplating putting an infobox on that page, but I couldn't find a photo to use. I'm glad someone made a box, and reorganized the article as well; I'd been wanting to do a bigger reorganization than I did originally, and redo the sections, but hadn't thrown myself into it yet. Good job. (I did make some corrections to your edit, but that's because I'm nitpicky. Is there a userbox for that?)

(Edit) Oops, forgot to sign my name. So much thinking, so very late.

[edit] HIM's Heartagram

HIM's heartagram is a logo of the band. The Image should have had the {{logo}} template on it. — The King of Kings 06:50 June 24 '06 06:50, 24 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Alt Metal

Hey, thanks for messaging me. To be honest I would have to (grudgingly) side with the references, the thing is there has been some argument in the past regarding the genre as a place people simply put nu-metal acts because they don't like the term nu-metal. I've been trying to keep the list trimmed down to the real innovators of the genre as a result. I hope my rationale makes sense. maxcap 11:39, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

Sounds good to me. I've been meaning to remove HIM as well, but I left it to see if anyone else would remove it. Adding Sepultura is OK, I suppose they were more likely to experiment than other metal acts. maxcap 12:41, 4 August 2006 (UTC)


[edit] Orphaned fair use image (Image:FLlogo.jpg)

Warning sign This file may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:FLlogo.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently specifies that the image can be used under a fair use license. 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.

If you have uploaded other fair use 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. BigDT 11:31, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Unspecified source for Image:NickelbackMain.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:NickelbackMain.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 a justification explaining 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. Yamla 03:12, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Staind

You recently contributed to the article Staind. Staind was cited as a source by a media organization today, November 30, 2006. I updated the Staind talk page with this and other templates. I thought that you may want to know as motivation to continue to improve the Staind article. -- Jreferee 18:23, 30 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Issue regarding Avenged Sevenfold

Hey, Thanks for the message on my talk page.I thought it might be a goo idea to contact you about this page: Untitled Fourth Avenged Sevenfold Album. Is it really necessary? According to the Wikipedia Policy, Wikipedia is not a crystal ball, and seeing as it is to be released in October next year and not even its title are confirmed, it's a waste of an article at the moment, isn't it? I'm not sure if users like me can apply a page for deletion, but if you could or contact an Administrator if you find the page ot be superfluous, I'd be grateful. Musikxpert 04:12, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

  • I added a merger proposal to both Avenged Sevenfold pages. If you agree to merge, don't just vote or vote per nom. Take the merger arguments from Wikipedia:Merging_and_moving_pages#Merging and specifically apply them to the Untitled Fourth Avenged Sevenfold Album merger proposal in your arguments. There may be twenty votes to not merge and two votes to merge, but if the only reasonable arguments are for merging and they are based on the rules at Wikipedia:Merging_and_moving_pages#Merging, then the consensus should be merge. If the consensus is to merge, you can do it yourself by following the Wikipedia:Merging_and_moving_pages instructions.--Jreferee 14:31, 12 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] RE;Slayer Image

I know that image is better, but it will fail WP:FUC # 1, that No free equivalent is available or could be created that would adequately give the same information. Basically any image of the band can be placed there and free images should always be used over fair use. Promotional images are being deleted a lot due to copyright.

[edit] Rock music Wikiproject invitation

Hello WikiProject Metal member.
WikiProject Metal music is important in expanding encyclopedic coverage of the metal. It brings attention to the lesser-known bands, and significantly improves the quality of the famous ones. Five Featured articles and two formers is proof of that.
This is the stuff I wish to achieve with the somewhat recently resurrected 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 embrace the links between metal and rock music in general.
Rock on.
