message: I just reworded the first sentence to read (abbrev.) "... is best known as the singer of three bands, and as the founder of Dischord Records," rather than the other way around, because he's much better known for Fugazi and Minor Threat, I feel. (This isn't intended as an edit summary,  discuss it if you like). Thatcrazycommie 16:20, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. I wouldn't consider anything other than Minor Threat or Fugazi well-known enough for him to be "known for."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.2.175.84 (talk) 08:08, 7 October 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: "best known"

message: Mackaye is well known for his stage banter (at least during Minor Threat and Fugazi) - maybe some of these jokes and stuff should be quoted...
I agree, I saw The Evens last night, and he was hilarious. Any quotes I could come up with would be paraphrases, but it should mention his stage personality. Thatcrazycommie 16:20, 9 December 2006 (UTC)

message: Is Amy Farina Ian's wife?  If so, that is definitely news to me.  I know that Ian is very secretive when in comes to his personal life, so I would like to know where that info came from.
Chris
I see that someone removed the "wife" tag from Amy Farina.  I'm okay with leaving her as simply drummer and member of The Evens, without implicating her relationship with Ian.  But I will leave you with this: according to an first hand accound, Henry Rollins (a very good friend of Ian and someone who would actually know) has mentioned that Amy is Ian's girlfriend during his spoken-word act.

thread_title: Wife?

message: I removed the following text from the article as being unencyclopedic.
 (rhymes with "eye" not with "hay")

thread_title: Rm garbage

message: Over the past few days, people have been vandalizing this page repeatedly with the text "In an ironic twist of fate, MacKaye died of a heroin overdose in his Washington, D.C. home on March (enter date here), 2007." The main offenders are SXeSuX and IP address 162.93.199.1. This is starting to get ridiculous, as a bunch of vandal edits have been reversed since the 16th of March, and I have warned SXeSuX on the user talk page. Is there anything else that can be done to protect this page? TheLetterM 00:24, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Nevermind, the vandal's been banned, so I guess that settles it for now. TheLetterM 22:56, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Repeated Vandalism

message: I feel it is worthwhile to show the proper pronunciation of his last name, as I would estimate more than half the people I've ever heard pronounce it over the last twenty years got it wrong. (Wrong: rhyming with "Hay." Right: rhyming with "sky".) >>Can someone on here with a better understanding than mine of the  -- Wikipedia: Manual of Style - pronunciation -- reformat it correctly please? (The best I could do was to do it phonetically: "pronounced Muh-KAI.") 
Source on correct pronunciation is this interview with MacKaye: 
http://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-srv/style/talk/nightwatch/brace990820.htm
>NW DC: Does the "Kaye" in MacKaye rhyme with "guy" or "way"?
Sorry, but I was pronouncing "Picciotto" incorrectly for a long time, and I don't want to be wrong about this, too.
Ian MacKaye: it rhymes with sky.<
Also, source for full name (Ian Thomas Garner MacKaye) and confirmation of the pronunciation in above interview is MacKaye saying his full name at the beginning of the deleted scenes on the DVD extras of the documentary film "DIY or DIE: Burn this DVD." (DVD version of "DIY or DIE: How to survive as an Independent Artist.")
--Liza
In American hardcore, Henry Rollins pronunces it "mc-eye"
:Thought I just could add this; In this Nardwuar interview on YouTube himself pronouces it as Mac-EYE. Bricklayer (talk) 19:19, 7 November 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Pronunciation, and full name

message: I'm going to remove the reference to his death until it's confirmed by a credible news source. The version I've heard has several pointers to it being fake, chiefly the one about Fugazi playing a show (seeing as they broke up, sorry "went on hiatus" five years ago).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brinepacer (talk • contribs) 21:17, 2 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Exactly. I don't see anything in the music press as of now. If this is true, someone should at least post a link to a source verifying it. WesleyDodds 21:59, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

text: Also, ventura theatre is in california...and brunswick, nj and baltimore, ML are about 150 miles apart...it doesnt makes sense.

I called the Dischord Records office. Ian Mackaye is alive and well.

replies: text: There's nothing on Dischord records' site that indicates MacKaye died, nor does any news of this happening seem to be cropping up. I ran WHOIS checks on the IPs but they don't correspond to any single location, most likely internet messageboard trolls having stupid fun. TheLetterM 22:14, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

text: Ok, this is getting batshit fucking insane. If people are still vandalizing the page even after page protection, I may move to Full-protection. TheLetterM 22:45, 2 October 2007 (UTC)

However, I would like to recommend it on its merits, and hope that an editor will find the time to examine the piece and—if he or she sees fit—post it to the external links section.

thread_title: Veg*n?

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :Ian MacKaye's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "Embrace":
From Embrace (Embrace album): 
From Embrace (American band): 
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 04:27, 15 February 2013 (UTC)
