[edit] separate pages
I think we should create separate pages for JFK and Seb, since they both work on different projets as well as DFA, but right now typing their name in automatically links you to the DFA page. --81.243.234.31 16:03, 12 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Death From Above 1979
The 1979 cult movie Apocalypse Now character Kilgore's chopper is spraypainted with "Death From Above"... Big Hat 22:15, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
Agreed; this is what i always assumed the 1979 meant... 137.222.214.63 (talk) 17:16, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
[edit] 'from' capitalization
I guess this is a trivial matter, but for the sake of correctness, I think the 'from' in the article's main page should have the F in upper case. If you look on their MySpace page in the About section, they have the F in their name capitalized.
Prepositions in titles are usually never capitalized. - CMK 02:31, 25 September 2006 (UTC)
Quite right, but there are several occurrences in the article itself where it has the word capitalized. Seeing as how that's the way the band does it, why not change the article title? I'd just like to reiterate that it is a trivial matter, so it's no big deal to me.
Prepositions are never capitalized, unless they're longer than four letters. That means basically only "about" and "under" are capitalized. I'm going to go through and fix the article and links to reflect the lowercase "from". Evan Reyes 20:52, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

[edit] Coke question
I was just wondering if the rumors that the reason that the covers of their albums all have their faces with elephant trunks is for "Snorting up more cocaine" is true. I don't have references but i was hoping for someone to find some on that subject
The short answer is Wallace Dodd Ford. --Endlessdan 15:25, 22 August 2007 (UTC)
