Just chatter
You asked if I was a fan - guess that's pretty obvious LOL! I love any and all concert videos, most genres, love to watch the musicians play (I'm a wannabe). Saw this video and BJ just really stood out for me, really awesome playing, and wanted to check him out, so this is where I've ended up. :) I listen to a lot of music, son's into metal, daughter into hip hop (yuck).  Never seen a Slayer video before so been checking them out on youtube - they sure can put on a show!  The guitar playing is amazing!  I'm not much into Yanni CDs but he has some of the most talented musicians that tour with him so I mostly enjoy the live videos.  He's classified as new age but he sure can rock sometimes.  Eh, if you ever get a chance, there are a lot of acropolis videos on youtube - great drum and bass solos.  Check them out sometime.  You might like it, or might not, who knows.  :)  Again, just want to say thanks for sending this article through the meat grinder, its looking so much better for it. I've learned a lot from you and who knows, maybe I'll get up the confidence to start reviewing....:) Cricket02 18:32, 29 May 2007 (UTC)


 * Oddly enough, you mention Slayer but it's Metalhead that's really really into them. I love Slayer, but nowhere near as much as he does - the reason why I began with those articles was because I found a collaborator who could help show the Metal fans on Wikipedia how it should really be done. My fave bands are Marilyn Manson, Motorhead, Metallica, Slayer, Iron Maiden, etc. etc. - the list goes on and on. I really shouldn't be reviewing on Wikipedia lol, as I actually have a small interview [www.lucemfero.com Metal site] I should be working on. Great drums eh? You should see Slayer's Dave Lombardo when he gets going! I'm glad I actually chose to review an article where a nominator actually listens to what he's being told and takes it all onboard (nothing more I hate than reviewing an article where a person doesn't reply) - with all these skills it's highly unlikely your future FACs will languish on the page, though I would recommend choosing a more popular topic to work on next time. I really do hope you start reviewing and pass on whatever I've learnt you (not much probs), because in terms of the Wikipedia Project it's a great investment from my perspective. In taking the time to show you some of the ins and outs of how to get to the coveted FA (seems miles away when you've never achieved one, I know!), it's possible now that you may go on to write 2 or 3 more Featured Articles which is a great thing. It's a bit unfortunate you aren't a Metal fan, because Metal music's forgotten on Wikipedia a lot of the time. LuciferMorgan 18:50, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Oh, I don't mind metal - the musical talent involved is tremendous, so I tend to listen to the instruments more - not big on the singing parts though. Its hip hop I'm not a fan of - color me wrong but I see no talent in it IMO, all sounds the same.  But I think that's about the only type of music I don't like.  There is music playing here all the time, all types.   It looks to me like the wikiproject metal has really taken off  with high quality articles and good to have someone like you and m3talh3ad, etc. collaborating on it.  I have plenty of musician stubs I've started and may get busy on those some time.  Great site btw!.  You're an excellent writer!  Cricket02 23:49, 29 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Cool, it's nice to hear you say you like Metal. You tend not to like the singing? Try a band called Sonata Arctica, whose keyboardist I interviewed in April. They play their instruments rather well and have a good singer. As concerns hip hop, I'm not a fan either - the lyrics tend to fixate around rather specific themes with little depth, and they seem to steal samples off other people's tracks. Unfortunately, WikiProject Metal is actually still firmly on its backside and hasn't gone anywhere - I introduced their assessment scheme and am the only one assessing articles for the Metal Project. Also, other than inheriting the Slayer Projects articles, all they do is debate what band is what genre (sighs), and create crufty stubs with plenty of POV. Thanks for saying I have a great site - hasn't been up long, so all is appreciated. It's a shame Joseph isn't a metal musician as I would've done you a favour by interviewing him for my website in order to get information for the article. I hope these newfound skills you've learnt at the FAC give you the confidence to work on further articles - it gets easier with experience :) LuciferMorgan 00:00, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * Actually, he does work with Dugan McNeill a rock guitarist, who coincidentally used to play in the rock band Chameleon with Yanni as well (Yes, Yanni was a rock musician before new age). Unfortunately, I have no other specifics other than his name mentioned as a band member at his myspace page, so haven't added that info.  But its still not metal otherwise I know you would ask all the right questions in an interview.  Oh well.  :)  I will look into Sonata Arctica, thanks.  Especially if they have a great keyboard player, that's my fav instrument.  I realize now I should have asked for help before FAC, but didn't realize it beforehand.  You're in my head now though, LOL, because I find myself checking every little fact over and over.  :)  And I'm not good with words, so this style of writing, by attibuting more, really helps with that, not to mention improving the integrity of the facts.  Yes, I have learned more than you know and I will be forever grateful!   Cricket02 01:20, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
 * I also like Rock, but when I refer to Rock I'm speaking of Ozzy, AC / DC, Sabbath, Thin Lizzy / Alice Cooper / Queen / Bowie and all those 70's / 80's bands. Asking the right Qs isn't relative to which genre one likes, but is relative to the level of research you've done. 99% of the bands I've interviewed I've never heard a single chord by. Odd you mention keyboards, since they have some great keyboard parts do Sonata Arctica - check a song called "Paid in Full", which was number 1 in Finland. As concerns learning a lot, hopefully now when you next decide to write an FA it'll be a lot easier. Now I hope Raul wipes the FAC yet again and asks for a fresh pair of eyes, as I feel this time it'll get passed. I certainly hope it will. LuciferMorgan 01:32, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

GA review of James F. Robinson

Article Review
Hey I noticed you've recently reviewed a few articles for their class via Wiki project metal, how do I ask for an article to be assessed, I've created a few and need to know what to do next on them? ≈ Maurauth ( nemesis☆ ) 12:45, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

South of Heaven
There we meet again (if your memory fails to recognize me, i am the guy who raise a storm on the name for God Hates Us All naming convention - though i should add unknowingly!). OK, here we go on this article. some good and not so good news. The not so good news is that i have left some comments for your attention here. The good news is that i think (and thus ia acted) that the article is GA material. --Kalyan 17:46, 1 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Hey, the reply was pretty quick. If you are OK with reviewing Cricket articles, there are a couple of FLCs that need attention - Indian national cricket captains and 2007 Cricket World Cup squads as well as a GAN on Mahendra Singh Dhoni. If your cup of tea isn't Cricket, i got to think of something else for you. --Kalyan 18:05, 1 June 2007 (UTC)


 * i was trying to lighten the entire thing up. Unfortunately, my areas of interest won't be anywhere close to your interests. Apart from cricket, the other area where i worked extensively is a temple - Tirumala Venkateswara Temple. So chill and continue the good work. Please let me know when you put some articles for FAC and GAN and i shall do my bit. express interest will be shown in the following cases: GnR, Metallica, AC/DC and Aerosmith.

Thanks for the barnstar, which is warmly appreciated. This is especially given the fact it comes from such a keen, enthusiastic editor wishing to learn how to improve his skills by the way. I really hope to see more GA / FA contributions in future from you, and look forward to reading such engaging pieces. LuciferMorgan 15:05, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

Maria Callas FA nomination
LuciferMorgan, you inserted a duplicate of your comment in the FA page for Maria Callas and said "Don't delete others' comments." This puzzles me, as nobody deleted any comments on that page, and you inserted your duplicate of your comment in a place where it doesn't belong on the page. Robert K S 06:51, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I didn't notice it was still there, though it didn't help that it was found elsewhere. LuciferMorgan 08:22, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


 * What? Robert K S 08:32, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


 * That it was found further down on the page from where I'd left it I mean. It was a mistake on my behalf, and I didn't accuse anyone specific, so I don't see why you need to leave a message like "What?" (which I find to be rather curt). I am human and can make mistakes ya know. LuciferMorgan 08:35, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


 * The "What?" meant, "I don't understand." I didn't understand what you meant by "it didn't help that it was found elsewhere".  I can see why you might have thought your comment was moved "elsewhere", though in fact no one moved it (they merely added additional responses to the previous comment).  Sorry for being curt. Robert K S 10:57, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


 * No problem, it's more me really. I should've searched harder for the comment, though I couldn't find it. Accept my apologies, and good luck in the Maria Callas FAC. LuciferMorgan 16:32, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Eyes
You should move the sample into the music and structure section and explain what the sample is, 'harrowing angular riff' to give the section some context like in Angel of Death how it mentions the scream and fast pace, rather then talk about the Grammy Awards. It also improves its fair use claim. M3tal H3ad 11:10, 3 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Per your recommendation, I'll get onto this. LuciferMorgan 15:00, 3 June 2007 (UTC)

Re: What's with you and GA?
Thanks. It's nice to read that people actually appreciated my efforts. I'll possibly be back in a few days to a couple weeks. Whenever the ridiculous issues are dropped or resolved, however, I'm not sure to what degree. I'm going to try out some PRs and maybe some FAC reviews. I think those may be more appreciated overall. GA has more, bigger issues than the lame proposals of these math guys. And I don't know that anything can be done to correct the real issues. Regards, Lara Love  T / C  12:26, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Remove your oppose or I'll have to report your for violating WP:POINT. Epbr123 20:00, 8 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I'm not making a point whatsoever, so report me. During that report, you can also attempt to validate your aggressive, utterly juvenile behaviour which you're displaying here. I don't take bullshit from anyone, so if you wish to try bullying someone around then look elsewhere. LuciferMorgan 20:04, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Keep opposing then. They'll still pass. Epbr123 21:39, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
 * If I oppose based on the criteria, that still doesn't grant you the right to threaten me here. It isn't acceptable. LuciferMorgan 23:05, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

My exams are finished so I'll have time to get this ready. I'll be merging the side projects section and splitting up Slayer into three sections - Slayer - Side projects - Return to Slayer or something like that so it's bigger. So yea thought I'd let you know. M3tal H3ad 10:44, 11 June 2007 (UTC)
 * That's alot of bot messages :O. Some stalker went through my log and tagged all my images awhile to 'get back at me' but he did me a favor because most of them weren't being used. Regarding Final Six Tom hasn't done the vocals for it yet so could be awhile. M3tal H3ad 12:23, 11 June 2007 (UTC)

Articles you might like to edit, from SuggestBot
SuggestBot predicts that you will enjoy editing some of these articles. Have fun!

SuggestBot picks articles in a number of ways based on other articles you've edited, including straight text similarity, following wikilinks, and matching your editing patterns against those of other Wikipedians. It tries to recommend only articles that other Wikipedians have marked as needing work. Your contributions make Wikipedia better -- thanks for helping.

If you have feedback on how to make SuggestBot better, please tell me on SuggestBot's talk page. Thanks from ForteTuba, SuggestBot's caretaker.

P.S. You received these suggestions because your name was listed on the SuggestBot request page. If this was in error, sorry about the confusion. -- SuggestBot 14:08, 14 June 2007 (UTC)


 * This bot is rather smart. There's a few articles / bands I've had my eye on in the past in that list. LuciferMorgan 14:36, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

Wording suggestion
Lucifer, I know you like to phrase things emphatically, but I wonder if you would consider rewording your comment at WP:GA/R, where you refer to the "juvenile antics" of the mathematics editors. If you were to say "behaviour" instead of "juvenile antics", it would avoid concerns about civility; if you wanted to scan your other comments and see if there was anything else you could tone down, that might be helpful too. I would also just comment that as far as I can see Geometry guy is reasonable, smart, and is acting independently of other editors, and if you were to cooperate and work with him on figuring out how to improve GA/R it would probably be a productive collaboration. In any case I don't think he deserves to be the target of your irritation -- he may not agree with you but he's acting in good faith. Just 2 cents from an uninvolved editor. Mike Christie (talk) 16:13, 16 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I call juvenile antics what they are, and that's juvenile antics. If Geometry Guy wishes to change the GA criteria he can debate it on the GA criteria page, and not GA/R. GA/R doesn't make the rules, it just enforces them. I'm frankly fed up of how poor the Maths editors have acted at GA/R as they've driven away some vital editors such as LaraLove (who reviewed a lot of GAs), and I refuse to pussyfoot around the issue. PMAnderson's utter bullshit, which is what it is, has disrupted many pages not to mention an FAC I recently had (calling me illiterate etc.) - he went well over WP:POINT, and needs to grow up and stop acting like the idiot he is, as does the rest of his playmates.


 * As concerns Geometry Guy acting in good faith, I 110% disagree - people from that Project don't even know the meaning of the words. Their attempts at lowering GA standards is truly saddening, and is just a means so that they can notch up GAs without putting any work in.


 * Thanks for popping in though Mike, as it's appreciated none the less. LuciferMorgan 16:23, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

Can you tell me which one I missed? — M o e   ε  14:08, 17 June 2007 (UTC)

Main page 27th of June :d, would you like to help me ce over the next few days? M3tal H3ad 07:31, 18 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Which sections need a ce? LuciferMorgan 23:07, 18 June 2007 (UTC)
 * The Christ illusion section, second paragraph of RIB, and do you think Divine Intervention and Diabolus could be expanded? Only if you have time, thanks. M3tal H3ad 12:21, 19 June 2007 (UTC)


 * I'll take a look. By the way, I'm already trying to expand the article to Diabolus in Musica... LuciferMorgan 14:50, 19 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Sorry, i meant the sections in the Slayer article, since you expanded Diabolus maybe you think there's something to add. M3tal H3ad 07:20, 20 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Maybe a short review excerpt which summarises its critical reception could be added. LuciferMorgan 08:29, 20 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Done, thanks for the feedback and finding the info. Just to let you know i will be nominating Still Reigning tomorrow most-likely.
 * Glad to hear :) LuciferMorgan 19:25, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * here is a Blabber post on the Christ Illusion re-issue in case you missed it. I would add it but I'm not quite sure where it would go. Also thanks for the Larry Carrol info, i will add it soon. M3tal H3ad 07:48, 22 June 2007 (UTC)
 * I'm away for a few days, so I'll add the info Monday. As concerns "Final Six", I think my article prediction may be true.. LuciferMorgan 12:54, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

WP:GA/R
Would you mind commenting on the consensus check thing on the GA/r talk page, and I guess your vote on Brian Adams needs to be re-cast. Aaron Bowen 05:52, 21 June 2007 (UTC)


 * You guess wrong on that - my vote needs no recasting on Brian Adams. All that's been added are a bunch of cites which prove kayfabe results, and there's no out of universe perspective on them. LuciferMorgan 09:56, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that's the way I feel. I commented on the GA/R talk page. They just re-nominated Adams for GA now incidentally. Aaron Bowen 23:23, 25 June 2007 (UTC)
 * That's rather unfortunate - they should listen to the feedback they've been given. Also, there's little hard copy on Adams to draw upon as he isn't one of the top name wrestlers so it'd be difficult for them to make a decent article out of it. Likely, it'll be quick failed for the same reasons as before. LuciferMorgan 23:52, 25 June 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for the compliment
Thank you for your compliment. I've added it to my list of honors on the top right of my userpage. Much obliged! Keep up the good work supporting WP:CIVIL! --Durin 15:33, 29 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Very funny - I always opt to speak my mind rather than veil it with words that aren't even meant. Removing album covers I still feel is excessive, and the one you removed had a proper fair use rationale. In the light of BetaCommand, BigTexr and all the other Gestapo members storming around in their jackboots, I think my comment was rather nice as regards you removing the cover to be honest. Perhaps you can maybe write an FA on a group of similar stature to Slayer and try finding free use pictures? Just an idea. LuciferMorgan 16:08, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
 * So you excuse your insult against me because it's less harsh than calling me a member of the Gestapo and/or storming around in jackboots? Funny! :) --Durin 16:13, 29 June 2007 (UTC)


 * By the way, I said "Durin was rather stupid in removing an album cover from the Slayer article". This wasn't a statement to say you are generally stupid but what you did to be stupid, so your link on your page is rather misleading. Perhaps you can try giving the readers of your page the facts instead of misling them. And yes, I do excuse my insult as I feel it to be correct - I have the right to my opinion, and when someone does something stupid I have no intentions of sugarcoating that. LuciferMorgan 16:15, 29 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Well then allow me to not sugarcoat WP:CIVIL. Calling BigrTex and Betacommand gestapo members is completely unacceptable. You've been repeatedly blocked for civility concerns before. I suggest you head the lessons. --Durin 16:19, 29 June 2007 (UTC)


 * What's "completely unacceptable" is relative to opinion, though I assure you that I have no intentions of letting you enforce your opinion on me. And if I want suggestions, I will go to an editor I actually know and trust thank you very much. If you don't like discussion when it doesn't go in your favour, then please refrain from discussion. LuciferMorgan 16:42, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

Personal attacks
This is your last warning. If you continue to make personal attacks, you will be blocked for disruption. You've been repeated warned and blocked regarding personal attacks and civility. You've been around long enough to know what is acceptable and what is not. Sure, you can call a spade a spade, but that's certainly not calling an obviously intelligent editor "stupid" nor alluding that the deletion of potentially copyright infringing works is akin to the Gestapo. Please reconsider your actions. Vassyana 16:26, 29 June 2007 (UTC)


 * Disruption? I called what he did "stupid", not him to be generally "stupid" - please don't try changing what I said. That's misleading people and isn't acceptable at all. This was a few days ago, and then I have the same editor on my page mocking me by saying I'm in his "list of honors" - if that's not goading for a response then I don't know what is. Furthermore, Betacommandbot was blocked because it annoyed so many people and a few others left Wikipedia altogether - so please don't tell me what I can say and cannot say. He sends the bot around and doesn't even know what the bot is tagging, and other than having the bot run rampant on Wikipedia I don't see him actually doing anything else to further Wikipedia. That was calling a spade a spade in my opinion.


 * Also, don't use impersonal templates on my page - if you got something to say then write it yourself. If you don't have the time to write something yourself, then I don't see the point in you messaging. And may I ask how you came to this page? Have you purposely put my userpage on your watchlist, or have you been intentionally monitoring my edits? I certainly don't feel your "warning" is in good faith at all - I've seen people swear and all sorts on pages on the past (and admins doing this may I add) and have seen no warnings. Now I'm being warned for calling an action "stupid" - if you wish to warn people then feel free to also warn other admins when they be incivil on pages thanks. LuciferMorgan 16:40, 29 June 2007 (UTC)
