Talk:Burn the Bastards

message: I'm wondering whether this article is worthy of a stand-alone entry.  Much of the prose in the "Origins" and "Transition" sections is bound to either duplicate or cover the same ground as Who Killed The JAMs?.  Perhaps "Burn the Bastards" should be a section of the LP article, much as "Single" is a section of "Justified and Ancient", complete with "Formats" subsection etc.  We might (or might not, I suppose :-) ) have to dispense with the single infobox. What are your thoughts on that one, mate? --Vinoir 17:24, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It's not an important single, so if the WKTJ article would gain from having the additional info go for it. I'm not too fussed either way. (And I haven't worked on this one yet so I don't have any emotional involvement :)). --kingboyk 18:02, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

message: "Build a fire" or "Fuel the fire". I thought it was the former, you've changed to the latter. What gives? Is it headphones and concentrated listening time? :) --kingboyk 09:52, 15 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Overly so, I reckon: I've just listened to that fragment loads again and its definitely "Build a fire"!  Bizarre. :) --Vinoir 10:40, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

text: Okay, good call. After all, Wikipedia is not a nanny state. --Vinoir 15:26, 15 June 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: I understand the point, but I don't see where it's done. Do you mean footnotes 1 and 3? They're not referencing the Wikipedia article, so perhaps the links should go. If you mean something else, please elaborate :) --kingboyk 18:03, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: The "Who Kill the Jams?" link reference to that article. It isn't obvious you're citing a magazine. I think you need the ISSN to make it apparent. Regards, Highway Rainbow Sneakers 18:10, 16 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I think there should be no ambiguity now. I looked into ISSN numbers and it needs a paid subscription to get them. If you think it's still broken please tell me the footnote number or the exact text so I know what I'm trying to mend :) --kingboyk 20:26, 17 June 2006 (UTC)

message: We read:
:A suspension of The JAMs' activities was explicitly announced. . . . This single, also by The KLF, featured. . . .
This use of Capital-T-"The" always strikes me as ridiculous corporatespeak. And the WP article on (say) even the creepy "Carlyle Group" rightly ignores this daft capitalization. My version:
:A suspension of the JAMs' activities was explicitly announced. . . . This single, also by the KLF, featured. . . .
Any objection if I went ahead and made such changes throughout? -- Hoary 14:38, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: We've had this debate over at WP:BEATLES and there seems to be some regional differences. It's become almost religious over there. We'd prefer "The". The KLF got the FA star with "The KLF" appearing throughout, so let's leave it as is :) --kingboyk 14:55, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That's right.  Drummond and Cauty themselves use capitalization for "The Timelords", "The KLF" and "The JAMs", but not for the "One World Orchestra" or the "K Foundation".  "The KLF" rather than "KLF" (for instance) is the name of the band, so to ignore this would not be right. However, I too am glad that "Carlyle Group" doesn't get the capital treatment! :) --Vinoir 15:28, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: If Drummond and Cauty want to use a capital "T", that's their privilege; I'll ignore it. Cf Sanyo, which consistently refers to itself as SANYO, but I think just about everybody ignores that. But that's just my two groats; I don't want to involve myself in any quasireligious warfare. -- Hoary 23:01, 21 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Spelling mistake? 

message: After being requested to assess this article, I have to cave in on this one too, this is thoroughly well written, covers all the topics necessary and nicely footnoted. Thanks for such a great work and to those who helped in creating a GA article. Lincher 11:53, 14 September 2006 (UTC)
