[edit] Ishkur redirect

the search for Ishkur was originally redirected to adad and was changed to this page without explanation. I have reverted to the original--Ted-m 21:09, 24 October 2006 (UTC)

seems OK. A disambigutation would have been a solution too. Regards --LimoWreck 00:35, 25 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Getting more guides

We need to possibly get a database of guides that give samples like Ishkur's guide. This would greatly enhance Wikipedia.

Are there others? If there are, I doubt they'd meet the notability guidelines, that's the thing.. - Zeibura (Talk) 21:52, 27 June 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Hoax

A musicological non-sense: this article refers to a non-trustable and non-peer-reviewed source, that violates WP:OR, therefore should not be (troll-)listed as a reference or a guide in every "electronic" "galactic" "psycho" article (see the list of so called electronic music genres); the latters pseudo-(faked)-genres are just styles-variations of modern technopop. You can't fool the world. Be serious please.Doktor Who 18:46, 15 August 2007 (UTC)

That's not the definition of a hoax. A hoax is a Wikipedia article which is not true, not a Wikipedia article about a website which may not be true. This article covers the questionable accuracy of Ishkur's guide, so there's no reason to call the article a hoax. I agree that Ishkur's Guide shouldn't be cited as a source, and I doubt very many people consider it citable. - Zeibura (Talk) 18:52, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
Yes, right, I agree with you, I mean only that this ishkur site is acting like a hoax because some "key" articles link it as a trustable site (and this is not difficult to check).--Doktor Who 20:14, 15 August 2007 (UTC)
