[edit] WikiProject Country Music

Welcome to WikiProject Country Music! Thanks for catching my mistake. I'll try to be more careful in the future. --TantalumTelluride 23:19, 22 May 2006 (UTC)

Would you mind explaining what you mean by "not my kind of country music"[1]? The project is still in its early stages, and there is plenty of room for expansion. If there's a certain aspect or subgenre of country music that we're not covering enough, we can try to improve in that area. --TantalumTelluride 20:39, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
"Not my kind of country" - I joined up because you had dropped a banner on the talk page for Charlie Poole. You were thinking of Charlie Poole as a rustic version of the "country form" - I was thinking of him as a polished version. I am not really interested in modern forms of country music like Bluegrass, Nashville and Urban Cowboy sounds. Apart from the celebration of rural life and predominance of 4/4, there isn't much similarity between the music I am interested in (old-time Appalachian) and the forms under the "country music project" banner. Maybe someday I'll start a "traditional banjo" project.... Good luck with your endeavors - Juneappal 21:05, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your reply. I tagged the Charlie Poole and the North Carolina Ramblers page because it was in Category:Bluegrass groups, which was a subcategory of Category:Country music. I was tagging so quickly that I didn't check to see what most of the articles actually were. You are welcome to add some more information about old-time Appalachian music to WikiProject Country Music if you'd like to. I was actually hoping to eventually find some participants with knowledge in all the different subgenres of country. (Granted, it isn't really a subgenre, more like a related genre.) Anyway, thanks again for the explanation. --TantalumTelluride 21:26, 13 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Re:159.247.236.126

I'm afraid it's a shared IP, so blocks/warnings in the past often arn't that relavent because it could be diffrent users using the IP. Unless you can point to some specific edits that show it's the same person (i.e. exactly the same vandalism edit over time or something) then best just report recent vandalism after recent warning to WP:AIV.

[edit] Spelling on my userpage

Wow, at least two people have actually read the thing. Thanks :) Quite a while back I did actually make a pretty obvious deliberate mistake to see if anyone would fix it. They didn't, but now I've made some non-deliberate ones people have noticed! Thanks, Petros471 20:15, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ted Kennedy revert - thx

Thanks for catching my unlinking of those good links. I thought that I was only reverting the bizarre allegation that Mary Jo Kopechne was missing a ring when they recovered her body. Anyway - thanks again. --AStanhope 17:52, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

Sure - that's the trouble with constant vandalism - fighting it makes it hard to maintain and improve the good stuff. Keep on fighting, though.Juneappal 20:36, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
Thanks for your nice note. --AStanhope 21:18, 22 June 2006 (UTC)
