I was updated the page, a couple days ago someone completly changed it so i decided to make an account and fix the vandalism on my fav bands page, i use to just use an ip adress but i thought it was time to make an account, the used changed it a lot and didnt ask premissiong of ask to change it on the talk page so i changed it back to the way it was(it was this way for a few weeks) and no1 had a problem with it until they did and their changes lacked sources and stuff liek that,etc so i changed it back to the way it was where every1 liked it and had plently of sources and provided great info.

But the version you're making cuts out like three paragraphs of info. That's a problem. Carl.bunderson (talk) 06:16, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
there paragraphs lack many sources as the way i made it has about 10 sources, this user made a huge change to the page without asking about it on the talk page, other users have reverted it casue they like it this way to but then i notice that another user (the same one who made it) changes it back, so i changed it to show other users prefer it this way...they break up some of the info a little more but the page isnt as good their way and takes alot of info from the album pages and just puts it on the main page which defects the purpose of having sub-pages, and most their info lacks sources, i changed it for the best, i took out 2 or 3 of their paragraphs which classify th epage as unsourced statements, they kinda vandalized the page but changing it so much and i just restored it to the way it looks good and provides the most accurate information and this is the way most users want the page since none other has liked it this way or tried to change it from the way i made it, so i think we should keep it hte way i and other users made it instead of just letting this 1 person do whatever htey want.

Look at the two versions. Both have the history section with a lot of sources, you didn't add that. And the version you're advocating omits a section with three sources. Carl.bunderson (talk) 06:43, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
the only info i cut out can be found by clicking on the links to the albums, they jus ttook the iinfo out of th ealbums page and put it on the main which is unnessicacy.Usedfan1989 (talk) 08:21, 14 December 2007 (UTC)
i kept it how it is but added some more info and sources to make it better. Usedfan1989 (talk) 22:11, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Unnecessary capitalisation

Hello. Please read Wikipedia:Manual of Style (capital letters) VERY carefully. Unnecessary capitalisation such as this is contrary to the Manual of Style which has been consensually agreed as a "generally accepted standard that all editors should follow", and this just creates work for others to correct, and is not likely to be well received. Questions? Thanks. -- zzuuzz (talk) 19:23, 17 December 2007 (UTC)

does the "s" in b-side get a capital letter? Usedfan1989 (talk) 19:39, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
I think it probably does not. For an example, see The_Smashing_Pumpkins_discography#B-sides or the infobox for Smells_Like_Teen_Spirit. I will leave some more useful links here. You are welcome to ask me anything, but for questions relating specifically to music articles, you may find better answers at the WikiProject.

[edit] Revert Rule

You currently appear to be engaged in an edit war according to the reverts you have made on Angels & Devils. Note that the three-revert rule prohibits making more than three reversions in a content dispute within a 24 hour period. Additionally, users who perform a large number of reversions in content disputes may be blocked for edit warring, even if they do not technically violate the three-revert rule. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing. Please do not repeatedly revert edits, but use the talk page to work towards wording and content that gains a consensus among editors.

  • I personally purchased my copy of the album at Best Buy. Although it's listed as a bonus track, it doesn't fit the definition of being on. It's not a hidden track, nor is it an exclusive track like the iTunes songs, and it's featured on all versions of the album (including the amazon version). There's nothing about it that makes it an bonus track other than the band/label listing it as one on the back of the album. Darwin's Bulldog (talk) 05:24, 18 December 2007 (UTC)

on 12/4 you deleted a page on the used 4th album that another user created becasue you said youtube wasnt a reliable source, since then the album has been announed on their official site and myspace, would it be ok to create the page now?...i orginally thought a diff user deleted it but after talking to them i was directed to you, heres their link:[1] Usedfan1989 (talk) 20:52, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

If it's out and it's notable with reliable sources, then go for it! Dreadstar † 21:01, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Some recent edits

I'd first like to thank you for all the great work you've done on The Used article, electing to expand and improve the content, rather than delete it altogether, and protecting it against vandalism. However, a couple of your recent edits are questionable. In The Used article, you recently changed the info on Branden Steineckert getting kicked out to "summer of 2006" from "September 2006". This is problematic because it perpetuates a systemic bias toward the northern hemisphere, and does not represent a worldwide view. WP:CSB

  Articles often use Northern Hemisphere temperate zone seasons as time references to describe time periods that are longer than a month and shorter 
  than a year. Such usage can be confusing and misleading for people who live in the Southern Hemisphere and people from tropical areas that do not 
  experience temperate-zone seasons.

I will change it back to September 2006.

Also, you removed the link to the Paralyzed article from the Lies for the Liars tracklisting, even after I warned people not to change it at the top of the talk page. Please do not do that again. --Pwnage8 (talk) 06:51, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
