Ziggy Stardust
I believe I cited a reliable source calling David Bowie's: The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars an Art Rock album but I do not know if was done correctly. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiki Factualizor (talk • contribs) 03:34, 12 September 2011 (UTC)
Live at Leeds
Sorry for that, wasn't trying to start a genre war, just thought it'd be better to have hard rock than just "rock" (which could be anything from rockabilly to post-punk), and allmusic lists the album under hard rock , as well as listing the band as one of the top hard rock artists . Is there any other source required? --190.157.154.245 (talk) 04:12, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
- I'm personally loath to use Allmusic since no one has yet been able to show me why it's a reliable source, but if you must, no one will have good cause to revert you. Just copy and paste this code after the genre in the infobox: <ref>http://www.allmusic.com/album/live-at-leeds-r443429/review</ref>

Queen albums
Hi Radiopathy..what you did with A Night at the Opera (Filling in references using Reflinks)... could you do the same to...A Day at the Races, Sheer Heart Attack, News of the World, Queen, Queen II, Hot Space, Made in Heaven, A Kind of Magic, The Game, (Jazz, The Works these have bare links also) and Live Killers. User Koavf placed a barelinks tag on those albums and it would be great if you could fill in the references using reflinks. Cheers.-Queen Zeppelin Metallica Floyd (talk) 23:47, 11 August 2011 (UTC)
Hey
Hey, "this user loves to munch on large elephant's ears, because he is a screw-up, and north america is a continent, and other places, such as some countries do not use British English" read like vandalism to me. Apologies if it wasn't. 79.97.144.17 (talk) 05:01, 14 August 2011 (UTC) It's pretty much explained as well as it possibly could be in the edit summary. 79.97.144.17 (talk) 05:05, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
Album credits
Please see WP:ALBUM Re: these edits, when giving a track listing, the first and last names of the songwriters are to be listed in the first instance, followed by only the last name on subsequent listings (unless there is potential confusion.) —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 09:11, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
- Also When you removed {{Cleanup-linkrot}} from Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, it still contained several bare links and I have since re-added the template, as at least one of them still exists. —Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 09:34, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
Common name
Greetings - I've seen your comments at the two current Beatles move requests. I was wondering if you've read the WP:COMMONNAME section of the article-titling policy?

She Loves You
Hi Radiopathy,
I'm curious about your removal of my edit here. I appreciate your policing of the articles, and I suspect we're talking fan to fan here. As such, I promise there is no mischief going on.
The article says that the lyrics are unusual in being "in the third person". In fact they are unusual for being in the second person: :"YOU think you've lost YOUR love." I corrected this, and linked to the article explaining second-person narration. I think you've reinstated the mistake.
(Third person lyrics would be "He thinks he's lost his love, but I saw her yesterday. It's him she's thinking of, and she told me what to say. She said she loves him", etc. Something for a future Anthology, I guess....)
Best wishes,

Canvassing
Canvassing is when you notify someone that you know or expect is likely to be on your side, when that person is not yet aware of the discussion. I, on the other hand, have simply asked you and two other editors who were already involved in the Talk:The Beatles (album) discussion to explore your reasoning, so that I can better understand where you're coming from. They are individual discussions, which are perfectly appropriate to keep from cluttering up what is already a very cluttered talkpage. It's been my experience that sometimes it's easier to have a reasonable discussion with someone when it's done outside the din of talkpage shout matches. I'd still love to have one with you if you're open to it. Dohn joe (talk) 17:35, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
- It's called "campaigning", and it goes to AN/I next time, and I'm not joking. Radiopathy •talk• 17:39, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
- Here's what WP says about campaigning: "Campaigning is an attempt to sway the person reading the message, conveyed through the use of tone, wording, or intent. While this may be appropriate as part of a specific individual discussion, it is inappropriate to canvass with such messages."
Again - canvassing is when you approach someone about a discussion which they were not aware of, which I have not done. Dohn joe (talk) 17:45, 24 August 2011 (UTC)
- Here's what WP says about campaigning: "Campaigning is an attempt to sway the person reading the message, conveyed through the use of tone, wording, or intent. While this may be appropriate as part of a specific individual discussion, it is inappropriate to canvass with such messages."
All Things Must Pass
You completely misunderstand the situation: I don't have a preferred version. The discussion at WT:ALBUM can never be ‘in my favour’ as I have no POV. I just follow the guidelines, and at the moment, that is clearly that lists must not be included. If you or anyone else wants to change the guideline—perhaps define some lists which are exempt from the ban—that's fine by me. In the mean time, WP goes on; to suggest that editing per current policy/guidelines should stop just because someone has raised a question about a current guideline is quite ridiculous. Uniplex (talk) 07:09, 25 September 2011 (UTC)
- You keep making bizarre statements: “your argument isn't gaining any traction”, after three people had agreed that the guideline should be changed, and a proposal was made to change it! Uniplex (talk) 05:20, 29 September 2011 (UTC)

Beatles songs
I've brought up the Beatles songs copyright question at WP:ANI. Recommend getting a ruling there before doing any more reverting of those IP's. ←Baseball Bugs carrots→ 01:43, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
- I'm willing to simply not revert, but it appears from the discussion, some twelve hours after you posted here, that those IPs have been a problem and that what they're doing is definitely copyvio. Radiopathy •talk• 00:50, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
- Yes. It may be that the spammer is sincere in his thinking that it's somehow OK, but it's still not OK. The articles have been semi'd and the IP-hopping user has drawn further attention to himself and his activities. ←Baseball Bugs carrots→ 02:54, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
albums produced by Jack Douglas
all of John Lennon's greatest hits compilations (except for Shaved Fish) have the category of "albums produced by Jack Douglas" on them. Of course, he only produced the 1980 tracks, and no other producer is mentioned (including Lennon himself). I don't think anyone should be credited as producer of a compilation, but this is a credit that's just wrong. What do you think? Hotcop2 (talk) 17:34, 22 November 2011 (UTC)
- I don't have albums handy at the moment; are there producer credits on any of the compilations? If so, I'd say change the producer for any albums that do, but maybe best to contact some other Beatles article 'regulars' and see if we can get some kind of consensus before we start removing Douglas en masse. Radiopathy •talk• 00:47, 23 November 2011 (UTC)
Till There Was You
Evidently you've never actually heard the Beatles rendition of the song. ←Baseball Bugs carrots→ 03:44, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
- Just to be sure I wasn't the only one hearing this, I googled and found many references from a number of years ago. I recall when it first came out, when I was a teen, we used to snicker about the "sore" thing, since it sounded so weird to American ears... as with the line from "I Should Have Known Better" where the guys keep singing, "Give me Moe!" ←Baseball Bugs carrots→ 03:52, 24 November 2011 (UTC)
- 'Sar'. I sar a film today, oh boy. Radiopathy •talk• 21:17, 25 November 2011 (UTC)
- Excellent. I had forgotten about that one. The right way to spell it, really, would be 'sawr'. The thing that's odd is saying 'sawr them'. I can understand 'sawr a', that's kind of normal for non-rhotics. But what's with the 'sawr' in front of a consonant??? ←Baseball Bugs carrots→ 02:29, 26 November 2011 (UTC)
- A Liverpool thing? Like the 'intrusive R' in London: Chiner, Ameriker, Barack Obamer, etc. (with 'Barack' pronounced exactly as it's spelt - ba-RAK)
- The r at the start of a syllable is enunciated, it's the trailing r that's rounded off, and then added when there isn't one... as with your examples, and with "I sawr a film". Looks like I need to study more about the Liverpudlian speech pattern. ←Baseball Bugs carrots→ 02:47, 26 November 2011 (UTC)

Live at Leeds
I understand your concern, however the link has been checked out - see the discussion here. WP:ELYES#2 encourages a link to a copy of the work in question, provided such a link leads to a responsible and legal site, which this one is - the site is owned by the Romanian government. There is no copyright violation, as the website is licensed to stream in certain countries. The music cannot be copied or downloaded. Sometimes when you are not sure about a link, you can check the archives of Misplaced Pages:Media copyright questions, or clarify the situation with the person who entered it.

Robin Gibb
Hi - I undid your revert of my edit in the first paragraph of Robin Gibb. I think you misread the hidden note in Bee Gees - I wrote that note, actually, quite some time ago and the point of it was that we had edit warring going on regarding the Gibbs' nationality, with people fighting to call them Manx or British or English or Australian - so we settled on not characterizing their nationality in the first sentence and rather spelling out that they were born of English parents on the Isle of Man, spent a few years in Manchester, then emigrated to Australia, eventually returning to England where they had their major success. Doing this effectively ended the edit wars, and the text has held since then. The logic of extending this to the 3 individual bios as well seems sound. Cheers Tvoz/talk 03:52, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
- Sorry; I misread the dif. Radiopathy •talk• 16:15, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
- No problem - that's what I figured. Tvoz/talk 21:48, 17 December 2011 (UTC)
Metal Box
Hey, just wanna know why you removed the genre Experimental Rock from the infobox of Metal Box by Public Image Ltd. I mean, it's clearly an experimental rock album and the article itself mentions it in the first paragraph. Any reason? Cheers~ Smurfandbuffalo — Preceding unsigned comment added by Smurfandbuffalo (talk • contribs) 13:14, 22 December 2011 (UTC)
- Surely: genre changes/additions have to be backed up by reliable sources; when they're not, and when there's no discussion, they're reverted. Cheers. Radiopathy •talk• 00:49, 23 December 2011 (UTC)
FYI
I've reverted genre troll account Jamcad01 on the Van Halen article for today. Experience tells me that he will return... either under the current account , an IP.. or a separate similar account... trying to re-add the false info to that article. Cheers and take care. Mr Pyles (talk) 23:02, 26 December 2011 (UTC)
- You can start putting templates on his talk page: {{uw-genre1|Van Halen}}, genre2, etc., up to a level four warning, and then take it to WP:AIV for genre warring if he persists. Cheers. Radiopathy •talk• 23:54, 27 December 2011 (UTC)
- It may come to that. I reverted one of his edits which seemed to defy previous discussion and consensus and he accused me of stalking him. I really don't think he is playing with a full deck (when it comes to fanboys on Misplaced Pages most of them don't). I can't solo revert him and boilerplate msg him over content without dragging myself down that slippery 'content dispute' vs 'POV vandalism' slope. but will be diligent that he does comply with pages that I know a concrete consensus has been reached. Thanks for all your help. Happy New Year! Mr Pyles (talk) 00:36, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
- He's on the slippery slope already: he called one of your reverts 'vandalism' and I brought it up on his talk page. I'll keep an eye out. Radiopathy •talk• 00:39, 28 December 2011 (UTC)
- Sheesh. First of all, if you guys read the talk page you will see that the genre was originally in the info box when the hidden text was up there. Someone removed it though and it was never added back in however. I will stop adding it for now but it should still be up there. Second, It is not false info and the fact that you think so is WP:OR. Here are some sources to support my case: "Sam Dunn, Metal : A Headbanger's Journey, Sam Dunn, 2005," "http://allmusic.com/artist/van-halen-p133911/biography," (Pop Metal is synonymous with glam metal), "http://www.guitarworld.com/top_20_hair_metal_albums_of_the_eighties?page=0%2C0" (Hair metal is also synonymous with glam metal). Also I said my revert was vandalism because he was removing text within hidden text.

I thought I read somehwere recently about someone promising to not use the anti-vandalism tool Twinkle to undo another editor's work that was clearly not vandalism. And yet someone recently did, in fact, use Twinkle to do the very thing that was promised to an admin to not do anymore. I believe the admin closing the discussion on the Twinkle misuse actually went ahead and closed the discussion based on the promise to not revert edits that weren't vandalism using Twinkle. Perhaps if that admin knew that the bad habit was not yet exorcised (especially when the accompanying edit summery uses rude SHOUTING cap lock'd text) that admin might be a little more prone to issuing a block to, perhaps, make the promise stick. Happy New Year. Mr Pyles (talk) 08:05, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
- First of all, Radiopathy shouted at me first. Second, I did not label it vandalism I simply reverted it. --Jamcad01 (talk) 08:16, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
- I said I wouldn't label stuff vandalism anymore, I did NOT say I wouldn't use twinkle anymore and the admin. said that the issue was resolved and that I would agree to refrain from the use of the term vandalism. Also can you guys please stop ganging up on me. Thanks. --Jamcad01 (talk) 08:21, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
Questions
1. Do you like to treat the articles on your watchlist as if they were yours? I mean, not letting IPs edit them? 2. Do you like to not obey this encyclopedia's rules when you revert an edition based on your point of view? Thanks, 177.19.95.239 (talk) 08:41, 30 December 2011 (UTC)
- Had I included an edit summary, speaking of Misplaced Pages's "rules", I would have said, "How can reviews be mixed as well as positive? If they're mixed, obviously some of them are positive, while others are not necessarily so". I reverted to what I thought was the most logical, neutral wording. Cheers. Radiopathy •talk• 01:14, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
- Ok, Pathy. I think you are a good contributor. So, can you please change a thing at the introduction of this article (Let It Be)? The line says: "having received a largely negative review", but the review was mixed, and the "reception" section confirms this. Can you please adjust this information? Thanks. 177.19.95.239 (talk) 02:34, 31 December 2011 (UTC)
Good Morning Good Morning
What do you mean, "youtube is not A reliable source"? That's the actual ad! What more reliable source could there possibly be? I don't want to get into an edit war, so I'll just delete the current incorrect lyrics as unsourced, but this is exactly the kind of absurd pickiness that makes me spend less and less time editing Misplaced Pages. Congratulations, you have helped make Misplaced Pages a less informative place. (Seriously, do you expect there to be an Encyclopedia of Ad Lyrics that can be authoritatively cited?) Languagehat (talk) 13:39, 4 January 2012 (UTC)
- You can't add a link to a YouTube vid in most cases, per WP:ELNEVER. The other issue is that I believe that the commercial that inspired 'Good Morning, Good Morning' was a British commercial, given the term 'Sunshine Breakfast'; however, I do not have a reliable source for this, so it's best that the lyrics stay out of the article. Cheers. Radiopathy •talk• 22:04, 5 January 2012 (UTC)

Date corrections
Hi, I notice that you have corrected some ISO 8601 dates used in references for the article The Beatles: The First U.S. Visit with reference to "date formats per WP:MOSNUM by script, all British spelling by script". However, if you read Misplaced Pages:Manual of Style/Dates and numbers#In references, you find that "Access and archive dates in references should be in either the format used for publication dates, or YYYY-MM-DD." So, while ISO 8601 dates should be avoided in the article texts for English Misplaced Pages, as this international date standard is still unfamiliar for many in the English-speaking world, it is perfectly okay to use it for access dates in references.

Old Brown Shoe
You are wrong in saying that my information is incorrect or uncited. You will notice that the citation that pre-exists for the personnel of the recording cites Ian MacDonald's Revolution On The Head p. 347. If you look at page 347, you will see that is says that Paul McCartney plays bass on the track. I'm well aware that the article mentions that George claims to have played bass, but if that section cites Revolution On The Head, then I am correct in editing it to reflect what the source says. If you want to attach a footnote that reiterates George's claim to have performed the part, that is fine, but I simply corrected the information in the article to reflect the citation already used. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Derekgbolton (talk • contribs) 06:33, 29 February 2012 (UTC)

Also, you both said I have to cite a reliable source and verifying it. Sadly I do not know how to do that. I have been here since 2007, and I do not know about this until now that is. So if you can both help me out then I do not have to be a bother alot anymore. Or I'm just going to have to give up. If you what you are I'm talking about. Thank you!! I really appreciate it, talk 9:33, 23 March 2012 (UTC) --ReadingOwl91 02:34, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

- Radiopathy, I've reviewed the discussion at Red Hot Chili Peppers to which this ANI notice refers. The consensus at the RHCP on the talk page there is clearly against you. Please don't make any more edits like this one. The slow edit war has to stop now, unless and until a new consensus emerges on the article talk page. Kim Dent-Brown 09:51, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

Aqualung year link
I apologize for the year link in the Aqualung article. I was guided by WP:YEARLINK, which seems to state that it is ok to link articles to year articles when, "they contain information that is germane and topical to the subject matter." Again, my apologies if I misunderstood the policy.Orsoni (talk) 04:31, 3 May 2012 (UTC)
Reverts
Thanks for reverting those IP edits. My computer is lagging too much to catch all of them. yeepsi (Time for a chat?) 21:34, 10 May 2012 (UTC)
Hi
Obviously you're looking for ways to screw me. But I'm just making correct changes. Is there a way to reach a consensus?
Raulseixas (Raulseixas) 20 May 2012 (UTC)
- By edit warring and socking, you are screwing yourself. There is already a discussion at Talk: Imagine (album); it would behoove you to start one at Talk: John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band as well. Cheers. Radiopathy •talk• 16:08, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
- Why do you keep reverting my edit, if changed by keyboard and organ removed the information of harmony, just as you want? Only improved the article. In Imagine, I am using information from LP sleeve. Therefore, it is an official source of information.

I am just curious why did you revert my edit on this bee gees song? An explanation would be appreciated! Finnegas (talk) 15:45, 23 May 2012 (UTC)
Reverting my edits on Led Zeppelin IV
I imagine you reverted my edits because I changed John Paul Jones' instrument credits from "electric piano" and "synthesiser" to "keyboards". I am going to try and get a consensus on the talk page for putting keyboards, because John Paul uses more than just electric piano and synthesiser on the record, so I thought it would make more sense to just put "keyboards". Don't you agree? Also, I don't think you needed to revert that whole edit. The rest of my edits were just linking each band members' instruments to their respective pages, like lead vocals linked to the lead vocals page, and drums linked to the drum kit page, you know, like the rest of the instruments. So I am going to make those edits again, but as for the keyboards thing with John Paul, I'll take it up on the talk page. Akdrummer75 (talk) 01:00, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
The Clash
Dude, the reason I fixed it is you messed up the infobox. I couldn't tell why is wasn't working right off so I just decided to undo it. Next time why don't you compare the differences before you come on and yell at me! You're really starting to piss me off! It might not be your intent, but you are coming off as being rude to me. --BLAguyMONKEY! (talk) 02:29, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
re: 1967-1970 Correct title...yeah
Hi Radiopathy. I've just added a comment to a discussion you were involved in late last year, about the two 1973 Beatles comps, which might be of interest ... Cheers JG66 (talk) 17:39, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
Multiple changes of "U.S." to "US"
Hello, I noticed that you changed "U.S." to "US" in several articles including the Goodbye Yellow Brick Road (song) article and the Elton John (album) article, citing WP:MOSNUM. However, as far as I can see, WP:MOSNUM does not say that "US" should be used in preference to "U.S." Can you provide some justification for your actions? —BarrelProof (talk) 00:49, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
- MOS:NOTUSA. Those articles you cited deal with UK subjects; UK grammar and punctuation rules apply, although U dot S dot has been deprecated in the US by the Chicago manual of style. Radiopathy •talk• 16:36, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
- Thank you for the pointer to MOS:NOTUSA. —BarrelProof (talk) 17:33, 27 May 2012 (UTC)
Changes to the US Beatles' albums articles
Which articles? — GabeMc (talk) 01:25, 8 June 2012 (UTC) Yes, I agree with you 100%. They are removing way too much sourced material without any attempt at consensus. I think we may need admin intervention, as they appear to be edit-warring with you. — GabeMc (talk) 01:39, 8 June 2012 (UTC)
Sgt. Pepper Inner Groove
Just curious. Why is it relevant to identify this bit of studio chatter as "Edit for the LP End" but not by the name "Sgt. Pepper Inner Groove"? It is called "Sgt. Pepper Inner Groove" on an actual Beatles album. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.9.74.139 (talk) 04:26, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
- It's not called that on Sgt. Pepper; does that make any sense to you? Radiopathy •talk• 16:02, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
- But, it is not even listed on Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It's as if it is a "hidden track." But, when the piece was included on the Beatles Rarities album, it was entitled, "Sgt. Pepper Inner Groove." Hasn't that become the official name of the piece? This is sort of like "Kansas City/Hey, Hey, Hey, Hey," which was originally listed as "Kansas City" on both Beatles for Sale and Beatles VI. But now, everyone recognizes it is a medley of two different songs, "Kansas City" and "Hey-Hey-Hey-Hey!" — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.9.74.139 (talk) 18:08, 10 June 2012 (UTC)
Misreporting vandalism?
You undid a well-explained edit (on John Lennon) without explaining what you were doing, or why. As it clearly states on the Undo screen, (If you are undoing an edit that is not vandalism, explain the reason in the edit summary. Do not use the default message only.), doing so is tantamount to labeling the edit being undone as "vandalism". Was that your intent, or did you make a mistake? — UncleBubba 00:13, 14 June 2012 (UTC)

Undo
Hi, Radiopathy. I just wanted to give you a friendly reminder that, if you are using the "Undo" command to revert an edit that is not vandalism, you need to specify why you are reverting in the edit summary. After you click "Undo", you'll see the following message at the top of the editing page: If you are undoing an edit that is not vandalism, explain the reason in the edit summary. Do not use the default message only.
Effectively, neglecting to use a distinct edit summary, as you did here is calling the edits you are reverting vandalism. It's no big deal, but you should be a little more careful in the future. Cheers! Evanh2008 02:11, 22 June 2012 (UTC)
