My edit to Duran Duran's dicsography does not show up
It's not as if this is something controversial!! All I did was add "Arena" to the discography section. But, it does not appear now. Am I missing something? It is getting rather tiresome and a waste of my time which could be spent elsewhere. Please advise. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Musicollector (talk • contribs) 02:26, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Some anonymous editor came along and deleted it, commenting that it's a live album. (See the history tab.) Not sure why (or if) that matters; this isn't my area of expertise. Clarityfiend (talk) 02:39, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * According to This edit, an IP user undid your edit. I'm not sure why, but you could poke around WP:NMG for the reason. Bluefist  talk  02:43, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Arena has its own entry in the live albums list, did you put another entry into the studio albums section? Britmax (talk) 06:41, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * I've just glanced at the edit given above and the IP has removed it from the list with the edit summary "Arena is a live album", even though this list does not differentiate between live and studio albums in the way that the separate discography article does. Some people, eh? Britmax (talk) 06:52, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * For what it is worth, the album contains a studio track so it is not a completely "live album". 10draftsdeep (talk) 14:07, 1 April 2011 (UTC)

Baseball question - NY Mets in particular
We're going to go see a Mets game whilst we're in New York later in the year and from looking on the Mets site at the seating/ticket it looks like it's more popular (and thus more costly) to sit to the 'right' of the batter rather than the left (left field??). Is there a reason why this is? E.g. do more hits/does more action happen to the right of the batter than the left? In general terms we're not fussed where the seats are and we're looking around a $30-$40 range which seems to get us any of the 'green' seats and quite a few of the 'blue' (plus some 'red' in some sections) but as novices no idea which of those constitute a 'good' vantage point for your average game (witnessed by an average Joe with no detailed understanding of baseball). ny156uk (talk) 21:55, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * Traditionally a teams fans will sit behind their dugout, preferentially. While there is no universal standard as to which dugout a home team will use, the Mets use the first-base dugout.  See Dugout_(baseball).  Additionally, the orientation of the ballpark may make the sun shine unfavorably (i.e. in your eyes) at certain times of the day, which often affects which dugout the home team chooses to use.  So, the reason why the more popular seats are on the first base side are most likely due to those being behind the home dugout.  I grew up watching Red Sox games almost exclusively from the first base side; when I go to any ballpark I usually try to sit there as other parts of the ballpark feel "weird" to me.  -- Jayron  32  22:36, 1 April 2011 (UTC)


 * In addition to what Jayron said, there is also more action along the first base line than the third since more players reach first than third and home. If you're on the third base line (to the batter's left), then this action is farther from you.  Dismas |(talk) 23:09, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
 * You also get to face the majority of the batters instead of them having their backs to you. An advantage/consequence of that is that the first base seats are more likely to receive check-swing foul balls than are the third-base seats. ←Baseball Bugs What's up, Doc? carrots→ 05:01, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
 * "does more action happen to the right of the batter than the left"? -- Overwhelmingly. Unless he strikes out (and the catcher catches the pitch) or hits an obvious foul, EVERY batter moves toward first base; and unless he walks or hits an obvious home run, EVERY batter RUNS toward first base.  There are many, many more close plays at first than at third.  Runners coming from third, meanwhile, arrive at home, which is equidistant from the right and left. 63.17.91.115 (talk) 03:48, 5 April 2011 (UTC)

Name of song used in Jimmys Food Factory
What is the name of the song used in the Breakfast episode of Jimmy's Food Factory when he is making instant coffee? --71.98.72.247 (talk) 23:53, 1 April 2011 (UTC)


 * http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vJbvcOmZ0I 'Rubber Biscuit' by 'Chips'. ny156uk (talk) 08:00, 2 April 2011 (UTC)


 * (just realised you didn't ask for the intro music! will look and see if can figure out the other one) ny156uk (talk) 08:47, 2 April 2011 (UTC)


 * Not sure if the song you mean is 'Guagilone' by Perez Prado (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dfxv_lw2CDw)? That gets used in that episode. ny156uk (talk) 08:51, 2 April 2011 (UTC)


 * That's Guaglione. --   Jack of Oz   [your turn]  20:27, 2 April 2011 (UTC)


 * I actually found where I heard the song first. I first heard it on Louis Theroux Weird Weekends, it was the theme song for it. I still dont have a name though. --Tas121790 (talk) 21:14, 2 April 2011 (UTC)
