Around the World - A Good Heart

I would like to know why you have removed the following line from the Around the World page:

The main composition of the video is incredibly similar to the video of Feargal Sharkey's song "A Good Heart".

The background of the video of "A Good Heart" is so similar to the composition of the video of "Around the World" that I cannot beleive you have removed the reference.

Can you please explain? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 101.169.145.40 (talk) 03:43, 5 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reviewing Homework.

Hi. I'm the current reviewer of Homework (Daft Punk album), which has been nominated to Good article. I encourage you to help me improve the article, since i've seen you have worked on it several times. Improvements are mandatory for the aticle to meet the Good article criteria, since its current form does not meet those guidelines.

I'll really appreciate your help. Thanks. --Hahc21 (talk) 02:40, 29 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Template:Daft Punk

The insistence that the navbox only hold links to standalone articles seems to be an opinion only held by yourself. You've reverted several people over what appears to be two years now to keep the template at what you believe to be right, when the documentation concerning navigation boxes says nothing about what links to not use. I think you need to stop fighting this as it appears that several people believe the links to be beneficial to navigation.—Ryulong (琉竜) 17:36, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Actually it looks like you've been doing this since the template's inception. Why?—Ryulong (琉竜) 17:39, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding your message on my talk page, please note that WP:NAV specifically states to avoid multiple links to the same article. Feel free to reply on my talk page regarding the matter. jhsounds (talk) 22:24, 26 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
I like keeping convos on one page.
Also, WP:NAV isn't even a binding policy. It would appear that throughout the last 3 years people have been wanting to include this content on the template but you are the one who has solely been fighting against it. Why should we not include links or mentions to two albums that have existed simply because they are subsections of other articles?—Ryulong (琉竜) 05:18, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The most obvious reason would be that it is misleading and redundant. Piping a link to an article section to make it look like a district article is confusing. WP:PIPE may also apply in this case. There is no "fight" here; simply an adherence to site guidelines. jhsounds (talk) 14:43, 27 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo about the "Born in Paris"

Hello,

I saw you sourced the fact that "Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo was born in Paris, France." with their recent interview in Telerama.fr.

However, in this interview when they reacted about Wikipedia stating they were from Versailles, Thomas said :

« T.B. : (...) Je suis né et j'ai grandi à Paris. » → "I was born and grew up in Paris"

but Guy-Manuel said :

« G.-M. de H.C. : Moi, je suis né à Neuilly, quand même. » → "Me, I was born in Neuilly, I mean."

(dunno which Neuilly it is but it's another question ;)

--FoeNyx (talk) 11:56, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think a more accurate translation would be, "Me, I was born in Neuilly, even." This would imply a district or suburb within Paris. This only applies to Guy-Man, and since he doesn't specify which Neuilly, it would be more accurate to refer to Paris generally. jhsounds (talk) 13:32, 8 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Ok, thank you for the clarification in the article :) --FoeNyx (talk) 08:50, 9 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sillyness

You are being silly for correcting my edit on Daft Punk. They sing Dance-rock! Not House. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tombowell097 (talk • contribs) 12:53, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You're free to discuss the genre classification on Talk:Daft Punk, but this article has been prone to constant changes to the infobox regarding that. The immediate concern was that your edit broke the wiki formatting of the infobox itself, which is mainly why I reverted it. jhsounds (talk) 13:00, 10 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Get Lucky

shouldn't we encourage analysis of song structure etc? JCJC777 — Preceding unsigned comment added by JCJC777 (talk • contribs) 14:50, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I agree that cited analysis should be included in the article. However, it would best be included in a more specific section, such as "Composition". My goal in my recent edit was to avoid overlap with the existing "Background" and "Reception" sections, both of which contain compositional analysis. jhsounds (talk) 14:57, 16 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Interstella

Where do you delineate what is considered implicit versus explicit during the scene with the book and the flashbacks involving other musicians being aliens? Both are implied as a function of dialogue-free storytelling (including many other scenes compared to how they're described in the article). If you could further explain your reasoning, I'm more than willing to accept the reversion. Thanks!Luminum (talk) 03:39, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There was a huge debate on plot length and analysis in Talk:Interstella 5555: The 5tory of the 5ecret 5tar 5ystem that may help clarify this. Basically the problem is as you said, that this is a dialogue-free film and we should avoid inferring too much regarding what is visually shown. Explaining that the Cresendolls were not the first band to be used by the Earl is the key plot development of the flashback scene and is mentioned concisely, hence "in brief". A full account of the Earl's origins is somewhat tangential -- what the reader needs to know is simply that the Crescendolls' plight is but a small part of Earl's grand plan, i.e. a the-plot-thickens twist. Above all the plot needs to maintain a moderate length (see talk page on this, as previously mentioned). Thanks. jhsounds (talk) 03:55, 31 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Daft Punk Genre

Why do you insist on reverting the edit? As I said in the talk page they are universally regarded as a french house band. Moreover labeling them as just House has never been discussed so it makes even less sense to label them as such, and others seem to agree as well. I'm gonna change it back soon unless you can explain what the problem is, maybe I'm missing something. ErdoS (talk) 19:53, 3 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Daft Punk F1 appearance

Saw that you removed the info I was adding to the article lead re. Daft Punk and Formula 1, but are placing it further down in the article. Seems fair to me and you are quoting wikipedia policy or style manual of some sort, no? So OK, cheers! Azx2 03:55, 11 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Era statement on Daft Punk page talk.

Jh, the eras do have to do with the helmets and costumes of Daft Punk. Over the years, every era, they changed their helmets. I'm kinda mad that you didn't check that before you posted it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SupDuc (talk • contribs) 21:36, 30 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I found it on the official fan club of Daft Punk, DaftClub, so I dunno. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SupDuc (talk • contribs) 22:04, 30 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

If you're talking about daftclub.fr, I'm pretty sure that's a fan-run website. jhsounds (talk) 22:09, 30 June 2013 (UTC)[reply]

In regard to the Random Access Memories page, you are indeed correct to link the first mentions of those artists after the Lead, but there are numerous repeat instances afterwards that I will remove. Thank you kindly for the understanding and respectful conduct. Warm regards,--Soulparadox (talk) 02:59, 26 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Main Page appearance: Homework (Daft Punk album)

This is a note to let the main editors of Homework (Daft Punk album) know that the article will be appearing as today's featured article on December 27, 2013. If this article needs any attention or maintenance, it would be preferable if that could be done before its appearance on the Main Page. If you prefer that the article appear as TFA on a different date, or not at all, please ask Bencherlite (talk · contribs). You can view the TFA blurb at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/December 27, 2013. If it needs tweaking, or if it needs rewording to match improvements to the article between now and its main page appearance, please edit it, following the instructions at Wikipedia:Today's featured article/requests/instructions. The blurb as it stands now is below:

Daft Punk

Homework is the debut studio album by French electronic music duo Daft Punk (Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo pictured in 2010), released in January 1997 on Virgin Records. Homework's success brought worldwide attention to French house music. According to The Village Voice, the album revived house music and departed from the Eurodance formula. The duo produced the tracks without plans to release an album. After working on projects that were intended to be separate singles over five months, they considered the material good enough for an album. Homework charted in 14 different countries, peaking at number 150 on the United States Billboard 200 and at number 8 on the UK Albums Chart. By February 2001, the album had sold more than two million copies worldwide and received several gold and platinum certifications. Overall Homework received positive critical response. The album features singles that had significant impact in the French house and global dance music scenes. These include the US Billboard Hot Dance/Club Play number-one singles "Da Funk" and "Around the World", the latter of which reached number 61 on the Billboard Hot 100. (Full article...)
