[edit] Wikipedia:WikiProject Guitarists

Saw your contributions to the Les Paul pages. Would you be interested in joining the WikiProject Guitarists? We are a group of editors dedicated to improving articles related to guitars, guitarists (including bass/bassists) We could certainly use another editor to help out. Cheers and take care!

Excellent! Glad to have you aboard. Anger22 (Talk 2 22)

Good Job, SamBlob! Best wishes, Lion King 19:07, 10 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Black Beauty

Was it you that made the comment that the Black Beauty article should be re-named to the proper "Custom" title? I am thinking that now would be a good time to do that. Thoughts? Anger22 (Talk 2 22) 13:03, 13 December 2006 (UTC) I think the "proper" name would be better for the article. Also, Wiki-commons has a higher quality pic of a Studio model over what's currently available in the article - [Image:Gibson Les Paul Studio c.jpg]. A better promo pic from Gibson.com would be even better but I am not sure how it'll meet WP:FU since an obvious "free" version is available. Good work on all the Gibson articles! Take care!

[edit] Heritage Guitars

Good work on this article! We might just save it yet. :) Bubba hotep 23:22, 7 January 2007 (UTC)

Thank you! I hope we can! The article for Guild was just as bad. Respectfully, SamBlob 00:14, 8 January 2007 (UTC)
I apologize for having failed to reply sooner to your query apropos of the deletion review undertaken relative to Heritage Guitars; the issue, I regret to say, simply slipped my mind. In any event, the discussion endorsed the closure of the AfD as keep (or, perhaps more accurately, no consensus to delete), with the provision that a second AfD might be essayed in the future should no further substantial works of which the company is a principal subject be presented (there is, as you will recall, some disagreement regarding how the multiple non-trivial works criterion of WP:CORP is to be construed). I'll surely alert you should I encounter a second AfD, but you might also do well to watchlist Heritage Guitars in order that you might partake of such discussion. Once more, I'm altogether sorry for the belated nature of my reply; should you have any further questions, you should, of course, feel free to leave me a note on my talk page. Cheers, Joe 06:18, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
Thank you. Will comply. I have put it on my watchlist now. Respectfully, SamBlob 16:25, 21 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] DYK

Updated DYK query On 17 February 2007, Did you know? was updated with a fact from the article Harley-Davidson Super Glide, which you created or substantially expanded. If you know of another interesting fact from a recently created article, then please suggest it on the "Did you know?" talk page.

[edit] Gibson Blackbird

Nice work on merging the Gibson Blackbird article into the Gibson Thunderbird article. Very professional, in my opinion. Very nice work. I'm glad I noticed you did that. I'll have to think about that if I ever make a new guitar-related article, whether or not it should get it's own article or be incorporated into another. Thank you. I might be reading some other articles of yours to help me more to become a better wikipedian, as well. Bsroiaadn 12:50, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] WikiProject Guitarists newsletter

The WikiProject Guitarists Newsletter
Issue III - July 2007
Project news

Hey everyone! It's been quite a while since the last newsletter went out but it's time to tune up those guitars, set the amps to 11, and rock out a bit. Or for us old guys, put on the fingerpicks and set the amp to 3. A lot of people have been laboring away at guitar articles and their efforts are to be applauded. If you haven't edited in a while, why not pick an article from Category:Stub-Class guitarist articles and expand it? Or better yet, pick one from the article requests and create it. More tasks can be found on the main project page in the WikiProject Guitarists open tasks box.

I went through the member list and moved anyone who hasn't edited a guitar article in two months to the inactive section. If you're getting this newsletter, it means you are still in the active list. See you around --Spike Wilbury ♫ talk 21:47, 18 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Lamborghini‎ Article Vandalism

User 68.60.238.188 does nothing but vandalize. He appears to be a student at Northridge prep, whose article he also vandalizes. Christmas break is coming up and he will likely have a lot of timnme on his hands, so you may want to watch the article for subtle vandalism.

[edit] WikiProject Guitarists newsletter

The WikiProject Guitarists Newsletter
Issue IV - December 2007
Project news

Hello all! Time for the next installment of the WikiProject Guitarists newsletter. I recently went through and trimmed the member list again to remove inactive participants. I haven't been too active recently because I'm finishing a Master's degree but I'll have some more free time coming up. I will probably spend some time cleaning up equipment articles since many of them read like adverts or contain no useful information.

We have a lot of great people working on the project, including professional guitarists and even luthiers. We have the potential to write a lot of great articles. If you are looking for something to do, see the open tasks on the main project page or see the column to the right for specific suggestions. --Spike Wilbury ♫ talk 23:30, 18 December 2007 (UTC)
