Linkin Park- Unsourced

In reply to your question on your talk page; The reason the article is classed as unsourced is beacuse some of the facts that are presented in the article need to be verified by an referencing an external source. See Misplaced Pages:Citing sources and for an example of a well referenced article see Names of the Greeks. Also if nobody answers you on a talk page do not remove your question, somebody will eventually get back to you. If have any futher questions just ask me on my talk page.

OK, thanks. For me, there is a much more simple solution - not canceling talks, and thinking before writing. Bye. Egr, 13/7/2006

inflammatory edit summaries

Refrain from using inflammatory edit summaries. See Misplaced Pages:Civility. --Ezeu 08:28, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: Your messages at User talk:Leyasu

The edit you were asking Leyasu about was from over two months ago, and he's been blocked since June 13 (indefinitely blocked since earlier this month; see recent archives of the administrators' notice board). Please don't ask him about edits he's been making; he's been using sockpuppets that we've been trying to contain since he's been blocked, and we should not encourage him to keep doing that. Please don't make personal attacks against him, as that may just encourage him toward further misbehavior. He is under parole for personal attacks per Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Leyasu and for excessive reverts per Misplaced Pages:Requests for arbitration/Deathrocker. --Idont Havaname (Talk) 17:23, 16 July 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure. Leyasu identifies as female but has also said that s/he is a transvestite. I usually refer to Leyasu as "he" mainly because most editors here are male, so I have a habit of saying "he" and only use "she" for editors that I know (or at least have a good guess) are female. Some female candidates at requests for adminship actually have had to correct voters for calling them "he". --Idont Havaname (Talk) 16:40, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: your question on my talk page

One of my first concerts was Metallica back in 1983 so I certainly do consider them to be a Thrash/Speed metal band. Those sub-senres are mentioned, with more detail, throughout the article. However it is a general practice for Misplaced Pages music articles to not use sub-genres in the lead-in sections...especially for artists who span multiple sub-G's. In a case like Slayer where they do not deviate too far from their Thrash label...the introduction is acceptable. Eventually (and I have observed many Admins making these changes already) even that article will get altered to the standard lead-in. Hope that helps. Fair Deal 14:05, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

PS, your edit to Kirk Hammett was in line with Misplaced Pages Manual of Style. If you see more bios that use the "Stage Name (born "Full Name") type of format go ahead and correct them the same way you did to that article. There's thousands of them. Have fun! Fair Deal 14:29, 24 July 2006 (UTC)

Re: WP:Vandalism (on my talk page)

I regret offending you. However, the sentence I removed was "Sometimes, who commits a vandalism, hates the subject of the damaged article, but doesn't want to talk seriously about it." I believe this sentence to be grammatically incorrect. For one, the sentence doesn't even have a subject (grammar). JianLi 17:27, 30 July 2006 (UTC)

Remember to mark your edits as minor only when they genuinely are (see Misplaced Pages:Minor edit). "The rule of thumb is that an edit of a page that is spelling corrections, formatting, and minor rearranging of text should be flagged as a 'minor edit'." JianLi 19:48, 30 July 2006 (UTC)


Last caution

Please refrain from undoing other people's edits repeatedly. If you continue, you may be blocked from editing Misplaced Pages under the three-revert rule, which states that nobody may revert an article to a previous version more than three times in 24 hours. (Note: this also means editing the page to reinsert an old edit. If the effect of your actions is to revert back, it qualifies as a revert.) Thank you. This is last caution.
