What is old has become new again. And judging by your reaction to Andy Meek's story on the Kroger plans for online ordering of groceries, what is old has gone viral as well.Here are the basics:You order from a list of items and Kroger fills the order and has it waiting for you to pick up.When you think about the idea of supermarkets, which originated here in Memphis with Piggly Wiggly, it's enough to make the Piggly Wiggly founder himself, Clarence Saunders, spin in his grave.Before he came up with the idea of taking store shelves from behind the counter and putting them out there for you to get your own stuff from them, you would tell your grocer what you wanted and he would write it down on a paper bag and get it for you, wrap it up and present it to you.Saunders changed all of that as you know if you've seen the Pink Palace's child-sized replica of a Piggly Wiggly store from the start of the 20th century.A century later, no paper bags and you can still walk among the shelves if you wish.Perhaps this isn't that extreme. Maybe this is simply a swing of the pendulum, back toward the middle ground.Saunders tried to push it even further with his Keedoozle stores that followed Piggly Wiggly. In those stores, the items were lined up in what amounted to vending machines with shoppers releasing an item from the vertical row with a key.Here Saunders went too far. He mashed the bread.

The moves mark the next wave of pay raises by the nation's largest private employer, which has been under pressure from labor-backed groups for the treatment of its workers.

That increase affected 500,000 of its 1.3 million U.S. workers.

Companies want to know how and where suppliers present risks – environmentally, socially, economically.

Wildfires In West Increasing Burn Area At Nearly One Denver Per Year, Study Finds
CREDIT: AP/Jae C. Hong
Just as wildfire season is getting off to a heated start, a new study has found that in the last 30 years in the western United States, both the number of fires and the area that they burn have increased. The study, published by the American Geophysical Union, looked at the 17-state region stretching from Nebraska to California. It found that wildfires over 1,000 acres in size increased by about seven fires a year from 1984 to 2011. It also found that the amount of area these fires burned increased each year at about 140 square miles, or 90,000 acres, per year — an area about the size of Las Vegas and nearly the size of Denver.
The researchers assert that these trends are likely due to climate change and associated shifts in rain patterns and temperature norms, rather than local factors. The study does not directly link the findings to human-caused climate change, but it says the observations fit well with the predictions of climate models for the region.
"We looked at the probability that increases of this magnitude could be random, and in each case it was less than one percent," Philip Dennison, an associate professor of geography at the University of Utah in Salt Lake City and lead author of the paper, said in a statement.
This is the first study to utilize high-resolution satellite data to look at wildfire trends across a variety of landscapes and ecoregions, according to the researchers. They used nine ecoregions, including forested mountains, deserts, and grasslands, and found that the rise in fire activity was strongest in areas like the Rocky Mountains, the southwest desert, and the southern plains in Texas, Oklahoma, and Kansas. According to Dennison, these are the same regions that would be expected to experience more fire activity due to climate change.
Max Moritz, a co-author of the study and a fire specialist at the University of California-Berkeley Cooperative Extension, said that the data show a strong correlation to drought-related conditions, with most areas seeing increases in fire activity also experiencing increases in drought severity.
Over the weekend, wildfires in Utah and Arizona added to the evidence that this year could be an especially long and hard wildfire season in the West. In California, additional firefighters have been called up in certain areas to prepare for an intense season after a remarkably dry winter, which is forecast to extend at least into late summer.
Wildfires are also generating some recent political heat. In February, President Obama called for shifting the costs of fighting the biggest wildfires to the same emergency fund that handles other natural disasters such as hurricanes and earthquakes. The move is intended to allow the U.S. Forest Service to avoid using their mitigation and prevention budget to pay for the costs of massive, and extremely costly, western fires.
This week U.S. Senators Jeff Flake (R-AZ) and Martin Heinrich (D-NM) will visit Arizona and New Mexico to discuss forest restoration and wildfire preparedness. "Wildfire season is here, and now is the time to get ready," Sen. Heinrich said in a statement. "Learning about wildfire danger and being prepared can help reduce the threat of fires to our natural surroundings, our homes, and our communities."
Senator Mark Udall (D-CO), who serves on the Armed Services Committee and the Energy and Natural Resources Committee, recently called on the military to be prepared to help out with aerial firefighting during the coming months, as contractually obligated. "The U.S. Forest Service predicts another cycle of substantial fire activity is likely in 2014, and based on lessons learned from previous fires and delays in delivery of additional U.S. Forest Service tankers, I believe that support from Department of Defense aircraft may be more critical than ever," Udall wrote in a letter to the Pentagon.
Udall was referring to the awaited delivery of seven giant air tankers — known as "next generation" tankers — that have been ordered to provide faster and more effective retardant bombings than the current fleet. Fire-fighting supplies are already limited, and as fires tend to erupt in batches, the availability of flame retardant-dropping planes can be the difference in containing a fire before it blossoms into an inferno. Currently it appears that at most, only two of the seven new air tankers will be ready this year. As of late February, the Forest Service had less than 20 tankers, all aging and mechanically demanding. They are currently supplemented by several hundred smaller aircraft, but this is inadequate to demand. In 2012, according to reporting by the Associated Press, nearly half of the 914 calls for tanker supported went unfulfilled.

My Jack LaLane juicer finally wore out after 2.5 years of daily use. I was tempted to buy another - but I liked the way everything including the pulp catcher is all in one unit. So glad I got the Breville.
This thing is POWERFUL, especially compared to "Jack LaLanne". It is so powerful I usually don't even use the pusher except to cover the top so your ceiling doesn't get covered with stuff. Other reviewers have mentioned that tendency. What wasn't mentioned is that the reason it does that is because the motor is so beefy that stuff will shoot straight up.
When juicing soft stuff I immediately cover the top with my hand.
The design of this thing is absolutely first rate. Even down to the plug, which has a moulded loop so that it is easy to unplug and plug in! No tool is required to remove the basket, as in most other juicers. Breville uses a combo of ingenious design and magnets to hold it in place!
Ease of use and fit and finish is perfect.
Clean up is really a 2 minute operation and I don't even own a dishwasher. It will stain eventually, as every juicer I have ever owned does. Carrot juice would make a great dye :-)
The pulp on this juicer is a bit wetter than the Jack LaLanne. The "Jack" had a much larger basket and a much slower rotation. I believe that may account for it. But it isn't much wetter - just very slightly.
This juicer makes much smaller pieces of pulp though - and my experience so far has been that it gets just as much juice from a pound of carrots.
Bottom line - I can't imagine anyone not loving this unit.
UPDATE 3/26/2011 This thing is still going strong 3.5 years later. Folks I buy carrots by the 25 pound bag so I am HARD on juicers. And not one part has needed replacement!
|Length: 5:57 Mins
Update Oct 2013 - I'm so glad I bought this juicer! Still using all the original parts, nothing is broken. I've kept the mesh filter basket clean and it works great, but it is puckering at the top edge of the basket, between the spots where it's welded to the basket frame. It doesn't seem to affect the performance of the juicer, but it requires more diligent cleaning.
I have a new tip today about juicing spinach leaves. Stack spinach leaves about 2-3" tall and place on a large kale leaf. Wrap the kale leaf around the spinach and stuff into the feed chute. Slowly push the kale/spinach "package" down the chute. Small spinach leaves won't fly out the food chute or end up whole in the pulp collection bin. This works great with collard greens too!
Update Apr 2013 - Still juicing! I make about a quart of green juice a day. The shredding disc and steel mesh were showing signs of staining and minor clogging. The residue wouldn't come off with hand-washing, so I decided to try some serious cleansing using a spray-on oven cleaner. Bingo! All the residue came off easily, opening all the clogged mesh holes and rejuvenating the shredding disc. None of the original parts have broken or cracked. I remain very satisfied with this juicer.
Update Dec 2012 - The Breville Compact Juice Fountain works like new after 11 months of daily use! There have been no issues with the motor.Read more ›
On the negative column, it's not great at juicing leafy greens. I'd looked forward to that, but this type of juicer just doesn't do a very thorough job. It seems to just immediately throw the leaves to the inside of the pulp container. Being a leafy greens fanatic, I hate to just waste leaves that could have made a marvelous meal. Luckily, outside of leafy greens, there's still plenty that it is good at juicing - fruits and vegetables like celery, bok choy, broccoli stalks, cauliflower stalks, cabbage, carrots, pears, apples, peeled citrus fruit... I like to do an 80/20 mix of vegetables to fruit. I often plan to bring extra juice with me to work for an afternoon pick-me-up but I've yet to have the restraint. I can't help but drink it immediately. The crisp and thirst quenching juice is irresistible.Read more ›

Kellogg Co (K.N) is expanding its presence in China's fast growing breakfast and snack foods market through a new joint venture with Singapore palm oil producer Wilmar International (WLIL.SI), months after the U.S. cereal maker sold its stake in a cookie and cracker manufacturer in the country.
Kellogg said Wilmar will contribute infrastructure, supply chain scale and its sales and distribution network in China to the 50-50 joint venture.
The JV will market Kellogg's and Pringles branded products, said the maker of Mini-Wheats and Rice Krispies.
D.A. Davidson analyst Timothy Ramey said the deal was a good move, but said Kellogg has taken a long time to come up with an actionable strategy in China.
Kellogg had acquired a majority interest in China's Navigable Foods in 2008, however the business recorded operating losses, resulting in Kellogg disposing its stake in the cookies and crackers manufacturer in early 2012.
The U.S. maker of such products as Eggo waffles and Keebler cookies said at the time that Navigable did not prove to be the right vehicle for entry into the Chinese marketplace.
However, the company, which expects China to become the largest food and beverage market globally within five years, said it expects the Wilmar JV to be a "game changer."
Chief Executive John Bryant expects China's snack-food market alone to reach an estimated $12 billion by year-end, up 44 percent from 2008.
This growth will be driven by the growing middle class consumer base and an increased desire for a wide range of packaged and branded foods, the company said.
China's Bright Food took control of British breakfast cereal maker Weetabix in May, which includes brands such as Alpen muesli and Ready Break, to cater to its rapidly growing home market.
"(Kellogg is) just terribly late to the party," analyst Ramey said.
Wilmar's wholly-owned subsidiary in China, Yihai Kerry Investments, will participate in the joint venture, which will be headquartered in Shanghai.
Kellogg's shares were trading flat at $51.50 on Monday morning on the New York Stock Exchange.

Carmody Groarke: Osnaburgh Street Pavilion
by Lost At E Minor
on 04 November 2007
Carmody Groarke, a young British firm, just won an Architecture Foundation competition to design a new pavilion in Regent's Place, London. The firm is a finalist in BD's Young Architect Practice of the Year, and designed the pavilion to be made of a series of vertical rods that reflect light during the day and emit light at night. The design is further enhanced by the ability to move the rods within the building and thus change and utilize different spaces.

Very satisfied with every aspect of the transaction and the external hard drive. No problems whatsoever. Very good price and worth every penny.
Can't beat the price or the Gigabytes per Dollar. OK, it's not the latest USB 3.0, but this pocket size hard drive is perfect for backup and transferring large media files.
Didn't have to do a thing, but plug it in. My laptop recognized it immediatly. I put my movies, pictures, and everything I didn't want to lose on it. Backed up my laptop on it. Sweet!!!
The Toshiba Canvio 320GB USB 2.0 Portable External Hard Drive works just fine on my Windows 7 64-bit desktop computer. Simply plug it in, wait a few seconds for Windows to recognize the device, and you are ready to go. It is sleek looking, quiet, small and transfers files reasonably fast. The included USB cable is rather short.

Top Definition
The feeling of having every emotion known to man, simultaneously occurring inside you, happiness to sadness to fear, the whole shebang. Originates from the feeling one has after watching an episode of Doctor Who. The most common facial expression that can be used to identify Plethoremotion is the " :O " face and at times, even the "jizz in my pants" face. It can be clearly defined by thinking of one million million million million million roller coasters of emotion, that are on fire and filled with liquid nitrogen flying off the rails in concert and falling into a pit of flowers and skeletons while fireworks explode all around them, accompanied by dramatic music played solely on the piano. Similar feelings are also, the one where you can't feel your heart any more, or it feels like there is a hole in its place.

text: I previously posted this resolved but trying to resolve it created another footer/widget issue which was eventually resolved. I stated it was resolved but failed to remember that the initial issue was that I wanted to change my background color to black. I would think that if I change the background color to black, the widget area would automatically change to the same color. If that is correct, then I just need to make by footer color black rather than the current white at http://roundhousetalk.com. I have researched this and asked several times without resolve. Most instructions seem like I like do or should understand css and I am only now learning so I need specific php or css names to edit and under what section of the script to insert or change color to black. Can someone please help me as I trying to resolve this and move on.

I apologize, I don't really know how to reply to you about change. However, you are incorrect in undoing the previous change. OUC is the copyright holder for the page you mention, and the edit was a significant technical correction for the rather inadequate and misleading information that you replaced.

Why Caps?
Why caps for Every Word in a book title? A bit bizarre, isn't it? Vernon White . . . Talk 22:01, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
- Not bizarre at all, and usual Wikipedia capitalisation, per WP:CAPS (third paragraph). In library catalogs, of course, they often capitalize only the first letter of the first word and proper nouns in the title, but this isn't the practice followed by Wikipedia, or by most (I'm tempted to say "all") publications I can think of. And this does not reflect a UK English vs. American English difference, as far as I know. Capitalisation of the first and last words, and significant words in between, is standard in both countries.--ShelfSkewed Talk 22:35, 5 January 2010
- Yeah - Title_case#Headings_and_publication_titles. I can think of many better ways to spend my life than arguing across the Atlantic. Vernon White . . . Talk 23:31, 5 January 2010 (UTC)
- Well, it certainly seems I was mistaken about the differences between UK and U.S. norms, and I sincerely appreciate having learned something from the article you cited. But the controlling guideline here is the one agreed upon for Wikipedia, which I cited above. And I didn't think we arguing: I thought we were discussing.

Re: Films
Good point, went back and made dab pages. --Cybercobra (talk) 08:08, 10 January 2010 (UTC)
- Okay, but typically separate pages aren't maintained for different types of uses of the same ambiguous term. So the pages you created should be redirects to the main dab pages--i.e. Wall Street (film) should be a redirect to Wall Street (disambiguation) and Stagecoach (film) should be a redirect to Stagecoach (disambiguation), and the redirects should be tagged with {{R from incomplete disambiguation}}.--ShelfSkewed Talk 08:15, 10 January 2010 (UTC)

Happy (disambiguation)
Thanks for your educational reversion of my edit to Happy (disambiguation). Though I did go back and redo the other part of my edit (namely replacing the hyphen), I've read through the deep dark depths of MOSDAB and found that you're correct. I have therefore made this same change to Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde (disambiguation), am contemplating sweeping changes to SAD, and have only you to blame for this new wiki-nitpickery. :-) -- Perey (talk) 15:47, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
- That guideline is fairly frequently discussed/debated and hardly universally followed. The point, as I'm sure you've surmised, is to show the primary topic associated with the term. But as long as users end up at the desired article, either through the redirect or the direct link, the dab page is doing its job, so it's not a big deal. Being a nitpicker, myself, though, I do try to keep the link in the right place. Happy editing!--ShelfSkewed Talk 18:30, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
- It also has the convenient side effect of always going to "the primary topic associated with the term", even if the redirect is later modified because something else is deemed "primary". Which is what sold me on the idea -- because nitpicking is so much more satisfying when you can justify it. -- Perey (talk) 09:42, 2 February 2010 (UTC)

Hidden anchors
Hi! I know, there are some false positives, but it is not easy to account for any possible way to create an anchor. I'm doing my best, but as you can see for example in List of Castle episodes#ep18, there is no section named ep18 neither a standard anchor template like {{anchor}}. No standard html anchor nor a ref with that name: the anchor is generated by the template {{Episode list}} from the parameter episode number. WildBot will remove any false positive box within minutes. -- Basilicofresco (msg) 23:03, 7 March 2010 (UTC)

disamb templates
Hello ShelfSkewed, can you please explain why this template would be pointless? I can think of a couple of good reasons to use it. Giuliopp (talk) 16:53, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
- I wish you would share those reasons with me, because I suppose I take the opposite position: I can't think of a single reason to use that template. The correct format for the top of a disambiguation page is straightforward and easy to learn, and I don't see how the template makes it any easier. But my primary objection to templates for introductions and entries on disambiguation pages--particularly on (disambiguation)-titled pages, with a primary topic--is that enclosing the link in a template can make it inaccessible to some of the tools (including the one I use, Popups) used by editors when they are disambiguating incoming links. In fairness, I think that that happens not to be the case for this particular template, but I still don't see that the template is useful.--ShelfSkewed Talk 18:06, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
The advantages I see with disamb templates are that they automatically ensure consistency across all pages, and all pages can be changed at the touch of a button - e.g. if in future a new style/format of the opening line is introduced - instead of manually having to update hundreds of individual pages. I was not aware of the argument against, regarding editing tools. I guess the whole question has already been debated somewhere (maybe you can point me to it?). Assuming then that there is a consensus on not using templates in disamb pages, why do such specific templates exist in the first place? --Giuliopp (talk) 22:22, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
- They exist because most of them were created by the same editor, who probably didn't/doesn't spend much time disambiguating incoming links. As far as the templates simplifying a transition from one format to another, I could argue that it's just as likely that a new format could be completely incompatible with the existing template syntax. The issue has not been extensively discussed; I could find only one recent discussion. You are certainly welcome to raise the issue at Wikipedia talk:Manual of Style (disambiguation pages) and solicit more points of view. Perhaps I am in the minority.--ShelfSkewed Talk 23:11, 19 April 2010 (UTC)
The ease of maintainability I mentioned refers more to the wording, in case one day, for example, it is agreed that the words "may refer to" should change to "can refer to". That is by itself a significant advantage of templates, in my view. In any case, I thought that templates were more part of WP guidelines (or even part of the wikisoftware), rather than a particular editor's own initiative. I also gather that templates are not particularly popular, at least on disamb pages, so won't bother to raise the issue for now. --Giuliopp (talk) 23:03, 20 April 2010 (UTC)
I have granted rollback rights to your account; the reason for this is that after a review of some of your contributions, I believe you can be trusted to use rollback correctly, and for its intended usage of reverting vandalism, and that you will not abuse it by reverting good-faith edits or to revert-war. For information on rollback, see Wikipedia:New admin school/Rollback and Wikipedia:Rollback feature. If you do not want rollback, just let me know, and I'll remove it. Good luck and thanks.

A (Kannada film)
Hi, can you explain why you moved A (Kannada film) to A (1998 Indian film)? Your edit summary was "Standard disambiguation by year, and by country to distinguish from Japanese film". What standard is this, and is always having to include the year a rule or just a guideline? (Why is it crucial to have the year in the title?) How does "A (Kannada film)" fail to distinguish from the Japanese film? Why must the title contain the country rather than the language? Shreevatsa (talk) 19:41, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
- The relevant guidelines are Wikipedia:Naming conventions (films)#Between films of the same name. Primary disambiguation is done by year; if there are two films with the same title in the same year, then another descriptive term is added, usually the country of origin or the type of film (feature, short, documentary, animated). But the guidelines do not require that the country be used; if you would prefer to disambiguate to A (1998 Kannada film) that would be fine. --ShelfSkewed Talk 19:49, 29 May 2010 (UTC)
- Thanks for the reply! I'll follow up on the page you linked. Regards, Shreevatsa (talk) 19:57, 29 May 2010 (UTC)

Please explain how this edit is supported by MOS:DABRL. I am not trying to be difficult, but I just don't see it. – ukexpat (talk) 18:30, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
- Read the article's edit history. I mistakenly linked to the wrong section of the guidelines in my first edit summary, but provided a followup blank edit with the summary linking to the correct section, WP:INTDABLINK, which reads, in part: "To link to a disambiguation page (rather than to a page whose topic is a specific meaning), link to the title that includes the text "(disambiguation)", even if that's a redirect.... This helps distinguish accidental links to the disambiguation page from intentional ones."--ShelfSkewed Talk 18:38, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
- "This helps distinguish accidental links to the disambiguation page from intentional ones." For editors who fix incoming links to disambiguation pages, it is useful to know which links are accidental and require fixing, and which are intentional and can be left alone.--ShelfSkewed Talk 18:56, 8 June 2010 (UTC)
You are now a Reviewer
Hello. Your account has been granted the "reviewer" userright, allowing you to review other users' edits on certain flagged pages. Pending changes, also known as flagged protection, is currently undergoing a two-month trial scheduled to end 15 August 2010.
Reviewers can review edits made by users who are not autoconfirmed to articles placed under pending changes. Pending changes is applied to only a small number of articles, similarly to how semi-protection is applied but in a more controlled way for the trial. The list of articles with pending changes awaiting review is located at Special:OldReviewedPages.
When reviewing, edits should be accepted if they are not obvious vandalism or BLP violations, and not clearly problematic in light of the reason given for protection (see Wikipedia:Reviewing process). More detailed documentation and guidelines can be found here.
If you do not want this userright, you may ask any administrator to remove it for you at any time. Courcelles (talk) 18:30, 19 June 2010 (UTC)
"Good Enough (disambiguation)"
Hi, ShelfSkewed. Forgive my recent reversion of the Good Enough (song) article. I saw your first notation directing attention to WP:INTDABLINK and read the section carefully before reverting and I saw nothing in the hatnote area requiring the addition of "(disambiguation)" to a link, only that an article with a common name should contain a link to the disambiguation page (which was directly done already). I saw that you had restored your edit today but with only the same link to WP:INTDABLINK with no further comment or explanation. Re-reading the section, perhaps you meant to link to WP:FURTHERDAB which directly defines exactly what you were doing: "Redirects from page names that have "(disambiguation)" in their titles – Britain (disambiguation) redirects to the "Britain" disambiguation page."
Anyway. I just wanted to comment that further explanation in an edit summary (or perhaps a message on the article's, or editor's talk page) could prevent an edit war in the future with someone who doesn't go to such lengths as I did to try understanding what it is you meant.
Thanks for understanding. ~ [ Scott M. Howard ] ~ [ Talk ]:[ Contribs ] ~ 23:33, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
- My apologies to you for linking to the wrong explanation. The section linked to by WP:INTDABLINK used to lead with the information that is now further down under WP:FURTHERDAB, but I didn't keep up with the change and so sent you to a section that didn't match the situation. Thanks for persevering and figuring out what I meant. And you're right: I should have expanded on my explanation rather than repeating it. Regards,--ShelfSkewed Talk 02:46, 30 July 2010 (UTC)
I believe we should keep the main meaning (the voice procedure call) as the opening entry in the disambiguation page. Lwyx (talk) 19:40, 27 August 2010 (UTC)
- Per MOS:DAB#Linking to a primary topic, the topic for which a (disambiguation)-titled page is named always goes at the top, the point being that this is the use visitors to the dab page are least likely to want, probably just having come from the main article, so putting it at the top keeps it out of the list of other meanings, one of which the user probably does want. This separation also serves users who arrive at the dab page by another path, since they will find the use they are most likely to want right at the top.--ShelfSkewed Talk 19:53, 27 August 2010 (UTC)

With the multiple unstated reversions recently with this page, i am of the mind to ask for page protection, what do you think? I have left a message here for said user. Monkeymanman (talk) 21:34, 30 August 2010 (UTC)
- Attempting to start a conversation as you have is a good first step. If the editor continues to refuse to discuss or explain, but also continues to make the same edit, then, yes, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask for protection. At the very least we'd get an admin's eyeball on the situation and perhaps another perspective on how to proceed.--ShelfSkewed Talk 02:54, 31 August 2010 (UTC)

Hudson Ford - Revelations
Wgy did you delete this reference? The Group was real, the album is real and the song is real! So there isn't a page on Wiki at the momeny. Take a look at the Deaths page. The lack of a page does not nullify the existence of something. On top of that I have just written a novel based on the ideas behind the song. Can we please leave this reference in until someone writes a page about it? Williamgeorgefraser 19:13, 18 October 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Williamgeorgefraser (talk • contribs)
- Disambiguation pages are not indexes of every possible use of a term, however valid. They are navigation pages dependent on Wikipedia article content. If a topic is the subject of, or is mentioned in, a Wikipedia article, it should be listed on the dab page; if not, not. There is currently no information about the Hudson Ford song in Wikipedia, not even a passing mention in any related article, so there is nothing for a user to navigate to for further information about the song. The solution is simple: Add a mention of the song to the Hudson Ford article, if there is some reason it is worth mentioning separately; or write an article about the album, with a track listing; or write an article about the song, if it meets the notability requirements at WP:SONG. If you don't wish to write the album or song article yourself, you may add one or the other at the requested articles page.--ShelfSkewed Talk 19:47, 18 October 2010 (UTC)

Links to Untitled Books
(Original message copied from Talk:ShelfSkewed)
I have been complementing writers' pages with links for Untitled Books website, where they have been featured or contributed.
My contributions have been consistently erased by the user ShelfSkewed under the banner of spam. Untitled Books is a serious publication, of the likes of The Paris Review or McSweeney. I don't see other users erasing links to these websites or others, such as The Guardian or The Times.
I have been warned that if I keep adding contributions my account will be cancelled. I tried to contact ShelfSkewed and the only reply I have received was more threats of being banned.
Mfceia (talk) 10:11, 1 December 2010 (UTC)
- Repeatedly adding links to a site with which you are affiliated is spamming. The seriousness or relevance of your publication is not an issue. There are a lot publications out there, and if all of them added all their links to every related article, Wikipedia articles would all be trailing huge linkfarms, which is not the purpose of this encyclopedia. If you feel that a link to your publication would be a useful addition to an article, the way to go about it is to suggest it on the Talk page of the article. If another editor agrees with you, the link might be added to the article. But adding the links yourself is a conflict of interest and inconsistent with the aims of Wikipedia.

- Personally I'd not call these links spam as such, which I'd restrict to links trying to sell something. However, I think the links do fail WP:ELNO: external links should only be for sites including information which could not be included in the article. If there is good info in the link, that material should be included in the article, giving the link as a ref.

Coming Home (Iron Maiden song)
Hi there. I was wondering if you had any references for the chart figures in that article. I couldn't find any, and specific figures like that need sources. Without the charts section, there's really no point in maintaining it as a seperate article, so if you had references for that it'd be helpful. Cheers, C628 (talk) 17:50, 5 December 2010 (UTC)
- I used the numbers from the Iron Maiden discography page--lazy of me, I know--and it appears that those were added by this editor with a history of adding unreferenced and suspect chart info. I couldn't confirm any of those numbers at the sites used for referencing on the discog page, so I guess it should all go.--ShelfSkewed Talk 18:05, 5 December 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for putting me straight re DAB inclusion criteria here.
That's a mistake for me not to repeat!
I know you're just the messenger, & you rightly pointed me to the place to discuss the issue.
I won't go that far, although I am rather astonished at the policy.
After all, it means that if one's a barely-notable musician, one can possibly get loads of links to one's article. For every album where one's not had the inventiveness to think of a unique name, that's one link for each.
Then, let's say your article provides all the tracks listings for each album you've been involved with. If your lack of invention extends to the song titles, too, then each song could get you another link. Multiply this by the no. of all such musicians, and WP becomes one very cluttered encyclopaedia!
End of rant - please excuse me. But you do see where I was coming from, don't you?
Not to worry, we can't fix everything (& I lack the stomach to campaign for a policy-change!).
But thanks again for correcting my changes, showing me the policies & where I could take it further. You did a good job. Regards, Trafford09 (talk) 21:04, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
- In one area, at least, I agree with you. I've long thought that it would be great if some Wikipedia editor could come up with a better song indexing system (a template, perhaps, that could be used on all album pages) and all those non-articled songs could be replaced with a single pointer to an index page. In the meantime, however, what I've found is that if you try to remove those songs, they will keep coming back. Users really seem to want them there, and the best you can do is to try to keep the entries neat & organized. Cheers!--ShelfSkewed Talk 21:18, 22 December 2010 (UTC)
Out of the Blue
Hello, I see that you have edited my entry for Elton John's instrumental "Out of the Blue". I'm not sure that removing the links for the sake of being neat and tidy provides any clarity to the entry. If an article exists in Wikipedia about Elton John or the Top Gear series, why not link to it? Is there a specific code of conduct regarding linking to other articles? Also, I'm not sure why you moved the entry to the bottom of the list. As far as I can tell, the list is in alphabetical order, by band or the first name of artist. If the object of Wikipedia is to educate, I'm not convinced that your edit provides a justifiable contribution to this cause. Only allowing one link per entry may be aesthetically pleasing, to you, but is rather limiting. Unless you can convince me or point towards a policy regarding linking in articles, I propose to re-edit, adding the links, but keeping your general edit. Thanks, and in good faith. 126.96.36.199 (talk) 08:13, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
- There is a general policy limiting the number of blue links in each entry to one; see MOS:DABENTRIES. The policy is also stated in a notice at the top of the "edit this page" page for every dab page. The bullet-point version of disambiguation-page style is at WP:DDD. As for the order of the entries, yes, I did that partly for esthetics. If you'd like to move the entry back to where it was, I won't kick. Happy editing!--ShelfSkewed Talk 16:28, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
- I have seen many articles with numerous irrelevant blue links, and would agree that we should limit them to what is relevant to the subject matter, allowing the reader to navigate easily to articles that are related to the primary search result rather than using an overkill of blue linking, which only serves to make it more difficult to find what is most pertinent for further reading. In this instance I feel that Elton John and Blue Moves are relevant as blue links and help the reader navigate to further relevant reading. However, I am happy to bow to consensus, and if it has been decided to limit blue links to exactly one in disambiguation articles, it is not for me to fight this policy. Thanks for your guidance on this matter.184.108.40.206 (talk) 20:23, 23 December 2010 (UTC)
