i wonder what kind of life a wikipedia admin has
http://encyclopediadramatica.com/Wikipedia
:lol:

surely that leaves the question what kind of life an encyclopedia dramatica admin has -q-

as funny as ED is, most of em are from 4chan, so the answer to that is: no life :mrgreen:

as regards ...

because they all, in one way or other demonstrate notability and provide additional information that supports the stuff in the article.
i wouldn't dispute that this is probably the biggest dubstep forum on the net, but you'll notice none of the other links are forums. the wikipedia external links ...

i've added it again :)

http://i51.tinypic.com/2v8n2qa.jpg

and an admin has reverted it again. i'd recommend not re-adding, or he'll blacklist it, which will mean the link is permabanned from the whole of wikipedia.
like i said, not the first time we've been through this: http://www.dubstepforum ...

i explained why earlier in the thread.

this explains it

i stopped watching that article, as i had to remove non-notable artists nearly every day and it was causing me too much grief

no, it isn't, it's opening the floodgates. you allow one forum, and this time next week there will be twenty forums in the external links section. the week after that the article will start to become a spamfest with everyone bigging up their favourite unsigned artists and linking to their soundcloud ...

(one of the maintainers of the dubstep article on wiki here)
hey, the addition of the link has been reverted a couple of times. a link to dubstepforum isn't allowed on the article under wikipedia's external links policy.
we've been through this before - just ask seckle (who's also done some work on ...

alarm will sound... that bit where dude shouts 'come on you stnuc let's have some aphex acid' in a very reserved and grand english accent ftw

album is patchy as hell though

you literally would not believe how big a meme this is on a certain idm forum

it's, how shall i put it, the standard reply over there for when someone makes the equivalent to an "omg burial is will bevan! (or is he?)" thread, over here.

well, problem editor got blocked for a bit for using multiple accounts and shit.

half the bleedin article is built around martin's stuff and the wire magazine. it would be, to be frank, fucked without those :D
there's always all of this , including the one where nu-dark swing is coined

yeah ...

no probs man

half the bleedin article is built around martin's stuff and the wire magazine. it would be, to be frank, fucked without those

they're not 'my' pages in any way.

the problem with this editor is to do with POV, poor english, and unwillingness to work with others

can o worms

hahaha, i'm tempted :lol:

it would make a big conflict of interest thingy, so nah it's cool.

the big question i guess is does nu dark swing/dark 2-step need its own article, or should it be part of the 2-step article. also that this guy is imposing big, big POV on some elements of the article. i ...

Wikipedia isn't a whoring method of self-promotion but documentation

exactly. there are guidelines like WP:V and WP:R that decide what does or doesn't get to stay. if you just type those terms into the wiki searchbox you can read all about it.there's also WP:AUTO, about writing articles about ...

hey kaini

this seems a little extreme and i'll stay out of the formalities of the wiki inner workings: that's your domain. but i can say this on the musical angle.

whenever one new genre evolves out of another, as dubstep did out of UK garage/2step, there's a period when something new is ...

well, i'm the guy who generally maintains the article, so yes, it does

would you like interested parties to learn that dubstep was inspired by craig david? (extreme example, i know )

good vid

i would quite happily not listen to any other grime mcs than trim, flowdan and goodz for the rest of my listening days.

i just wanted to have a moan really.

basically some guy in eastern europe is rewriting/modifying loads of electronic music articles based on some book he has. he previously tried to write articles on 'thugstep' and 'nintendub'. sigh.

dubstep . new dark swing lol. reverting this bollocks a couple of times a day.

2-step garage ...

i'm far more interested in the forthcoming 12" than the tabloid bullshit

anyway i've done my best to be as unbiased as possible with the wiki update. if anyone has any suggestions, i'm all ears

now why is that url tag not working?
