Welcome to Wikipedia!
[edit]Hello Bungalowbill, welcome to Wikipedia!
I noticed nobody had said hi yet... Hi!
If you feel a change is needed, feel free to make it yourself! Wikipedia is a wiki, so anyone (yourself included) can edit any article by following the Edit this page link. Wikipedia convention is to be bold and not be afraid of making mistakes. If you're not sure how editing works, have a look at How to edit a page, or try out the Sandbox to test your editing skills.
You might like some of these links and tips:
- some General guidance.
- Tutorial and the Manual of Style.
- Find out how to revert, move and merge pages.
- Sign your posts on talk pages using four tildes (~~~~).
- Add yourself to the New user log and a regional notice board
- Ask questions at the Village pump or Help desk.
- Use the Show preview button
- Provide an Edit summary
- Add the correct image copyright tag to any images you upload
- Take a look at Consensus of standards
- Create a User page
If, for some reason, you are unable to fix a problem yourself, feel free to ask someone else to do it. If you are stuck, and looking for help, please come to the Wikipedia Boot Camp, where experienced Wikipedians can answer any queries you have! Or, you can just type {{helpme}}
on your user page, and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions.
Wikipedia has a vibrant community of contributors who have a wide range of skills and specialties, and many of them would be glad to help. As well as the wiki community pages there are IRC Channels, where you are more than welcome to ask for assistance.
If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page. Thanks and happy editing! -- Alf melmac 22:21, 15 April 2006 (UTC)
Regarding 66.159.133.202
[edit]That ip does seem to be a repeating source of junque. Unfortunately no one has been reporting them to admins who can block it. I recommend that when you see obvious vandalism from that source (or from anywhere else!), head on over to WP:AIV and follow the instructions for adding an alert. I believe you will be pleased with the speed and effect of alerts placed there. Best, --Flawiki 14:03, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
- The alert you place can be as brief or verbose as you wish. The simplest way to use that page is to edit the Alerts section and add
- * {{IPvandal|66.159.133.202}} --~~~~
- to the last entry. Thanks for your help in keeping WP useful --Flawiki 14:10, 29 May 2006 (UTC)
Famous synesthetes
[edit]Hi Bungalowbill, I've read over your comments, and I think that you're right about adding Pharrell and Rollo Armstrong. Most important is that you have clearly made a good faith effort to find second, corroborating sources, both of them. One citation is a little weak, but in the end, perhaps we should move them up. You're also right that it might be hard to get additional confirmation. However, I think that your concern about NOR might be misplaced here, since an interview would be citable, as it could be quoted directly, and would be available in paper copy, etc for verification. It's true, though, that it isn't publicly available, so it would be less than ideal. What I propose is that we put the two of them up, and then add a note saying that we would like additional quotes to corroborate this, so if anyone has any, please add them to the talk page.
About dates, yes, I think it would be good. I assume a lot of them have these dates already on their pages, so it should be pretty easy.
Finally, about spelled, and spelt, I looked it up, and it seems that both are accepted on wikipedia: http://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Wikipedia:List_of_spelling_variants#S Some web sources suggest that spelled is more common in the US, while spelt is more common in the UK, but it doesn't seem to be a hard and fast rule, even between the countries.

Crystal CPUID
[edit]A "{{prod}}" template has been added to the article Crystal CPUID, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but the article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice explains why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may contest the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}}
notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Even though removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, the article may still be deleted if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria or it can be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached. hbdragon88 23:27, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
Dance music
[edit]There has been much discussion the past (see the relevant talk pages) and consensus was that the term "dance music" is a general one, has been around long before "electronic dance music", and often refers to music which is not electronic. Thus it was decided that dance music should be an article on the many different types of dance music (both historical and multi-cultural), rather than a modern Euro/US definition. If you have new issues that you want to discuss, please bring it up on the article talk pages before massively changing the structure of these articles. Wickethewok 15:34, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
Bungalowbill, You are mistaken about the consensus. You didn't read the discussion carefully. Please explain what makes you think that "dance music" is only "electronic dance music" `'Míkka 15:56, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
- I am afraid you are mistaken about the number of people's opinion about the term "dance music". `'Míkka 16:08, 1 November 2007 (UTC)
Dance music (electronic) has been created to accomodate a more balanced view. Please take a look. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.83.157.10 (talk) 16:38, 15 November 2007 (UTC)
