They're Red Hot

Yo. Before I edited there was way too much info on the fact that the Red Hot Chilli Peppers did a short skittish cover of what is a fairly amazing song all things considered. No encyclopedia would include information that a cover of a 1930's song by an incredibly infuential blues player was recorded 'on a hill outside the mansion at 2am'. I mean, for a start, 'the' mansion? The stuff about the guitarist being influenced by Johnson is so irrelevent. It's barely worth mentioning that the RHCP did a cover, all the album info and stuff is ridiculous, a separate page for the RHCP cover should be created if all that info is really necessary - this is about the song not the RHCP's cover of it. It's an amazing piece of work and I think it's devalued when discussed only as a song that happened to be covered by X. I was removing content but content I felt was not appropriate for that article and clearly editted in by some RHCP fan who is not thinking objectively.

...

Oh, all the categories as well. They're Red Hot is not a '1990's rock song'. The RHCP album information at the bottom, I mean,can you not see what's wrong with that? That article pretty much sums up what I hate about wikipedia.

PA 43

If you could, please take a look at Talk:Pennsylvania Route 43, where I'm locked in an editing dispute with an anon. The argument revolves around the differences between my exit list and the one made the anon. Both are in the page's edit history. Thanks. --TMF ^Let's Go Mets - Stats 23:27, 1 February 2007 (UTC)

Unblock is denied...

Here is why: [1] --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 03:29, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

My concern is that it implies that this user is still a sock. The user is telling you that he has the power to eliminate the vandalism problem... which he would have only if he was the vandal, right? And furthermore, I strongly suspect that the user talk page is a hoax. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 03:35, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Furthermore, we have this diff as well, linking it to the IP address: [2] That IP address vandalized your page within the same timeframe. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 03:38, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Personally, I believe that if JohnDoe15 is not a sock and genuinely wants to contribute, he can get another account. But I doubt that that is the case. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 03:42, 3 February 2007 (UTC)

Look at all of the pleading on his talk page. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 06:47, 4 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't believe him. I think it's the vandal making up stuff. Note the message I left `on his talk page. --Rschen7754 (talk - contribs) 04:07, 5 February 2007 (UTC)

Novels newsletter : Issue IX - February 2007

The Novels WikiProject Newsletter Issue IX - February 2007
Project news The month has been a quiet one for the project with little obvious interaction, although editors have been very busy working on article improvement, recategorisation, and assessments. The Short story task force have been slowly adding staff and working mostly in the early stages to tag existing "short story" and "short story collection" articles. Member news The project has currently 204 members, 13 joined & 1 leavers since the last newsletter at the start of January 2007 Other news The Short story task force now has 6 participants, do join in if you have an interest. Also do let us know if other Task Forces could be established. Auto list news NovelsInCompleteInfobox worklist has been worked through, mainly due to the efforts of Jask99; it has now only the most difficult to complete. Please give it a look and if you can complete an infobox, please do. We should soon get a rerun with the latest article additions generated courtesy of user Eagle. Current debates East of Eden copyright infringements? is the latest debate that could do with input. Worklist "Projectified" List of literary works with eponymous heroes List of literary works with eponymous heroines These two lists have been culled from the main Wikipedia but others thought they would serve as a good worklist for the project to use as article hitlist, so they are here for your pleasure.

Newsletter challenge Last months Fictional locations challenge was met by the user Loom91 (talk · contribs) with a modest start that rapidly got expanded a short stub that survived tagging for deletion and then expanding by a number of editors to something quite useful. Along the way it got (correctly!) renamed to Fictional location. The first person to start the article is mentioned in the next newsletter. This month's article is P.D. James - A Taste for Death.

Oops. I was trying to find the rules on WP:IH, but I couldn't. No biggie though. I just figured it was just as useful as having it randomly placed in the article. Cheers! --MPD^T / C 00:55, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
