[edit] Let's get things kicked off

What we need:

An image for the portal, I was thinking of a guitar image, but like a cartoon like picture of a guitar.
Categories... this is the long and tedious part but must be done. I'd recommend a subcategory for each genre, (See List of rock genres what's everyone else think? Also we need categories for the things you can do section, a category of rock stubs that need expanding etc...

I'm sure there's plenty of other stuff we need too, but in my mind, those two seem the most urgent.Qeee1 23:34, 17 March 2006 (UTC)

For the image of the portal, I think a guitar image will be nice, but not cartoon. Maybe a real one but first we need to get rid of the round, orange headings

As for categories, genres is a great idea and. Also, we should have info on each instrument, such as guitar/drums, etc.

As of now, all rock and roll portal discussion takes place here. Also as of now, Portal:Rock and Roll is officially established. YAY!!!Osbus 01:46, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

I like the idea of a real guitar picture. Maybe a Stratocaster, those are pretty emblematic.

Categorizing by genres is a good idea, but it might also be nice to categorize by era. WoodenTaco 17:06, 18 March 2006 (UTC)

yeah...Jimi Hendrix and such have used stratocasters so that's a good idea. But categorizing by era...that's a bit narrowOsbus 03:39, 19 March 2006 (UTC)

i would make sense to change the titel of the page to Rock (music). unless the idea is too have a page about the earlier forms of rock music then the titel classic rock would be better. ..crowscream..

[edit] Deaths

How about adding a rock 'n' roll deaths section as well as the births one?James Barlow 23:24, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use image

I removed the images in the featured band/musician and selected picture sections, as they are a violation of Wikipedia's fair use policy. Please remember that fair use images can only be used in the article main spaces (the main page though is an exception)--☆TBC☆ (aka Tree Biting Conspiracy) 12:18, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
