Twee pop

I note you've unilaterally reverted the merge of Twee pop to Indie pop. Are you planning to expand/clean up Twee pop? If so, that's fine, but the page was redirected because the current version violates multiple policies & it was redirected rather than deleted to avoid the history being lost. — iridescent (talk to me!) 15:17, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

Ok, I might have gotten a bit carried away

Undoing edits

Maybe you should set up a discussion on the talk page of an article or template instead of undoing people's edits which are in good faith. 98.201.84.139 (talk) 22:18, 26 December 2007 (UTC)

Of course, only if those edits need discussing. I know your edit was done in good faith and you were not vandalizing, that is why I answered your question in the revert.--Sugarcubez (talk) 05:12, 27 December 2007 (UTC)

Then we should set it up so that the most recent winner goes first. I think it was very rude to do that to me not once but twice. 98.201.84.139 (talk) 23:34, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

I noticed that you had reverted the edit again. There is no official consensus on what the order should be. In the future, I think you should use the talk page for the article/template in question before undoing people's edits. And I agree that it does not align with the winners' names, which go in order from the earliest Cycle. CarlosTheDwarf (talk) 20:32, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

There does not need to be a conseus that is the format it is in, I do not make the rules, but I do follow them, not to mention this method makes since. Making the names random is a bit wierd. And, I am not the only one trying to explain this to you!--Sugarcubez (talk) 03:54, 7 January 2008 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (Image:Princess Tiana.jpg)

Thanks for uploading Image:Princess Tiana.jpg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 04:15, 15 January 2008 (UTC)

YYY's

I've reversed your edit on The Yeah Yeah Yeahs. I'm sorry but yyyr.com appears to be a spam site and is just not a credible source. It's very possible that it's info was itself derived from Wikipedia in the past. If you go back over the talk on the YYY article, the most credible source (Nick) says that it's based on NYC vernacular. Wwwhatsup (talk) 05:16, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

I reverted your edit on Yeah Yeah Yeahs article for the following reasons:

• The site seems pretty credible.
• I remember hearing Karen O saying this in an interview a while ago.
• I remember seeing this on some other sites a while ago.
• It makes sense, since Karen O has stated Bikini Kill and Huggy Bear among her main influences.

Also, I know it was not derived from Wikipedia itself from the past, being the reasons stated above I have seen this article from the beginning and this site plus the others and the interview were all were decried way before. It was put on Wikipedia but at the time there was no source because I could not find any although I knew it was true based on the reasons above and I saw it on the site, but I finally found the site, but the information was derived from Karen O herself. The site has no reason to make this up, if you look at the other stuff on the site, it seems rather credible. I have no idea where you get the idea yyyr.com is a spam site.--Sugarcubez (talk) 17:32, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

I say it's a spam site because it's a site that's prime purpose is to sell domains, and it appears that the only reason YYY info is there is attract traffic and to help sell the yyyr.com name. It is *not* an authoritative source, neither is your memory, nor that it makes sense to you.. Whereas the 'vernacular' source is a documented interview on ABC television broadcast of their Summerstage show. Wwwhatsup (talk) 05:16, 26 April 2008 (UTC)

Ah, And now I go and look at Talk:Yeah Yeah Yeahs I do see that that I established that this info was originally sourced to Wikipedia sometime ago. What you see on yrrr.com is, without doubt, derived from an old version of the wikipedia article. As such it was syndicated a couple of years back and that very likely is the source of your memories.

Linking in an article's body

In response to this, I'd like to remind you that it's generally not good practice to add external links in an article's body (see here). This is why I undid this revision. This link is fine to go in the "External links" section; would you mind if I move it there? --Kakofonous (talk) 23:50, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

You are mistaken, I put a reference, most reference are links, that is one way to do a reference.--Sugarcubez (talk) 23:51, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
