Ok, I am seeing some stuff now. I forgot to put the REFLIST tag at the bottom.

Now that I got that page semi made, what I wanted to do was make a Disambiguation page, I actually had made one, but I think it was the "Weird Redirect" you fixed.

Here is what I was trying to do: I tried to create a page that had was named forever more that linked to a LIST of the two articles, the Moloko one and the band one. I made such an article in what I thought was my sandbox, and when I tried to rename it, it would not let me. Ergo, I went to the help desk and posted. Wat I am seeing is that if one thing is wrong, it can mess up a whole bunch of stuff. That is why I am doing this slow and undoing anything that looks strange.

So: I had made a discussion that linked the two different pages and I named it Forever More (Disambiguation) - I did not know if that was the proper procedure, but as I said I was not allowed to change the name of the forever More article. I guess what I need to do is ASK if it is alright (And also with the Moloko band) If we can make a new Forever More page listing both articles, and getting proper names on each. Forever More will link to the list, Forever More (Song by Moloko) will link to the Moloko Song, and forever More (Band) will link to the band Forever More.

Is this satisfactory? And then I'll worry about if my refs are legit refs... So far, the only two refs I could find are BLOG links on Opera.com... How do I ref something which I held in my hand and enjoyed about a thousand times from 1971 to 1985? That does not exist anymore- But DID exist? We do know that some of the members of the band became The Average White band - But as to the compleat Forever More album covers, the songs on the album... I fear some of this art is lost forever.

This is my purpose here, once I establish Forever More using Wiki rules, I'll establish more lost music like this: Someone has already done a lot of research on Arthur Lee and Love (Band).

I love Wikipedia, I spend hours reading articles here... This place is FASCINATING and I just want to add my bit. This is Human History, being written in Cyberspace. Every day I am finding articles about tings I have forgotten about... And I just sit back and say, Oh yah... I remember that now.

Anyway thanks for the help and the welcome.

 * WeaponX, it looks like others are helping you figure out the naming conventions in wikipedia. The current names/redirects/disambiguations you have set up are all fine.  Your article content could use a lot of improvement, and I suggest you read WP:MoS, or copy the style and format of another established wiki article about a band.

(As you can see, this "Article" is my "User Talk Page" - That's what I need help with- Also, I can't seem to get my "refs" listed, the ref code does not insert the ref like it did the first time I wrote the article. Also, I need to know what acceptable refs are, because this band being rare and obscure has not much written about it, I am finding a few articles, but all I really want to do is show they existed, who they became, and maybe even a sound byte or two- And I want to know how much I can do without worrying about Copyright Issues. Thank you- Social Spit: 1980-Present (talk)


 * Ok, that was odd. Hang on, I'll answer your question in a second, just wanted to get that off the article. Hers fold  (t/a/c) 05:27, 3 April 2008 (UTC)


 * Ok, it looks like what you need is this:
 * The references I've fixed for you - to get them to display at the bottom of the article like they are now, you can add the code reflist to the bottom of the article.
 * WP:RS describes what is considered a Reliable 'Source.
 * WP:COPY and WP:NFCC should contain all the information you need for the sound and image files.
 * The manual of style can also help you format your article correctly.
 * I hope this helps! Feel free to put up another helpme if you need it... and you might want to see this page for information on how to avoid redirecting your talk page again. ;-) Hers fold  (t/a/c) 05:33, 3 April 2008 (UTC)

Ok- Thanks for all the help everyone
All I need to do now add new refs when I find them: I feel this entry is important, but it is just that articles and books referencing "Forever More" are hard to find. Most of the links referring to F/M refer to the Moloko page here, or, a spam page that has multiple names across multiple domains.

I'm looking at a lot of time to be spent in the future finding facts I can post in the article here, in the meantime I hope that just that they existed, the names of their albums, and the fact that they became a more popular band later, will be enough just so we can keep the article in the database for now.

Once again, thank you.
