Fernando Grillo

[edit]

Thanks for the note - I realised this morning that I should just have dumped the actual links rather than Grillo himself. Thanks for doing it for me (and also - since I assume you are the same person - for the superb Jandek site) StuartDouglas 13:31, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Re: James Nicol

[edit]

If James Nicol refuses to stop interfering with the editing of Guy Davenport, I can initiate a Request for Comment on the article; but I can't initiate an RfC on him as a WP user unless a second editor contacts him on his Talk page. Deor 03:03, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a bit frustrated as well, but I'm still hoping that with some time and patience the problems with the Davenport article will lessen and compromises can be arrived at. It's threatening to turn into an edit war, but hopefully it's not quite there yet?--SethTisue 07:28, 16 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
OK, now James' last edit has me really upset. I'm ready to join in any official action we can take against him.-SethTisue 15:58, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Seth, did you read my comment in the discussion section on Guy Davenport? In what way are my edits "interfering" while Deor's meddling is simply "editing"? Why are you getting emotional about this? I'm happy to discuss it w/ you, Deor, & any others. James Nicol 16:27, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your last message, Seth. Please read my last entry into the discussion. I address the other changes, piece by piece. Although I stick to my guns as much as anyone, look at how many times the article has changed w/out any reversions by yours truly. The comma that offended three people (hardly everyone) is gone. You can hardly call me unwilling to discuss. You & Deor have both been guilty of the reversion. Also, I still await to see whether Deor cares at all about Davenport or merely about all Wikipieces following in his version of lockstep. Remember: What's most important about this article is that it be beautiful, interesting, informative, and in the spirit of Davenport; not that it simply follow some arbitrary rules. James Nicol 17:52, 24 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, I've just joined in here out of interest in particular on the Davenport page, and lord what a mess it is turning into! James Nicol is acting like a four-year-old. I don't see why he doesn't accept the Wikipedia process for what it is, and start his own page on Davenport if he doesn't like what the group effort amounts to.

Thanks, I appreciate it.--SethTisue 18:20, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Sightings (band)

[edit]

Hey - thanks for adding those links to Sightings (band). Those will help establish notability. (Funny coincidence: Angela Sawyer was a friend of mine in college.) Oh, I removed the myspace link: it seems to be the consensus on WP that links to myspace are not a good idea (see WP:EL, links normally to be avoided).

Photography

[edit]

Hi Seth. I've been uploading lots of your attribution photos from flickr of jazz folks. You take really nice photos, are you a professional? (Mind meal 14:19, 2 June 2007 (UTC))[reply]

why wouldn't it be capitalized?

[edit]

hi seth, re your question why wouldn't it be capitalized? the name moers festival is a name of its own and a trademark and its not written in capitals. source: wortmarke (sorry only in german language) unfortunately wiki doesn't allow use of small letters as article names. thats it. best wishes --Michl 06:55, 16 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Requesting your opinion

[edit]

If you have a moment to spare, your opinion would be appreciated at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Folk-blues musicians. Thank you. (Mind meal 08:32, 22 July 2007 (UTC))[reply]

Bern Porter

[edit]

Hi there-

As you may or may not know, Bern Porter left a large amount of artwork when he died, much of it in the form of books and other printed material which was then distributed between the Special Collections Libraries of Colby, Bates, and Bowdoin Colleges. I'm currently working at the Bowdoin Special Collections Library, creating a digital archive of the material he left here by manually scanning pages of his books individually. My question is, how did you find out about him? He seems to be a pretty obscure artist/physicist, albeit an interesting one. I'm the one who made the last two edits to the page under the 131.** IP address, btw.

When we get some of the scans I've made online (currently working on a slim volume called Dieresis from 1967), I'll let you know if you're at all interested. They'll be released on Ubuweb. I think they're pretty neat--magazine clippings and the like; lots of women from the waist down, pictures of people on the beach, women in ads, et cetera. Neat.

Hamid

[edit]

Hey Seth...noticed your edit to Hamid's page. Just last night I decided to add some more info to his page. Hamid and I were "roomies" for a few years after our mutual divorces. Last time I saw him was a few years ago at a gig in Evanston (IL). The nature of your edit makes me think you may also be more than a fan. Do you want to assist in a project to uplift Hamid's page to the level he deserves? Just wondering.--Buster7 (talk) 23:45, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No Wave

[edit]

I think the Stick Men are more significant because of their geographical disconnect. They were one of the few to actively identify with the No Wave movement outside of New York. Chronologically they're contemporary (1978-1983), and stylistically, the article itself acknowledges that the genre is difficult to define, and philosophically, I think the Stick Men fit right in.

I don't think trying to limit the examples to very similar groups is necessary beneficial to the article. Don't you think a couple examples demonstrating the breadth of the genre would help?

It would be better to discuss this on the article's talk page, I think. Maybe you should mention Stick Men in the text of the article somewhere, if you think it would improve the article. But I really think it's clear they don't belong on a short list of core No Wave groups, which is what the list in the article is. Once you start including bands just because no wave is "difficult to define", where do you stop? SethTisue (talk) 12:49, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
It's not so much that it's difficult to define, but rather it's defined by unique criteria compared to other genres. But I don't think their inclusion as a No Wave band is terribly contentious. They considered themselves part of it and they meet every working definition. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.196.250.228 (talk) 23:07, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'll go along with whatever consensus develops on the article's talk page. SethTisue (talk) 15:17, 22 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
