thread_title: Clean-up

message: I beg to differ that the word whilst being changed to while is "not needed." Apparently even in British English (where it occurs much more commonly than American English or Commonwealth English) the word is being phased out. People are using the word incorrectly who do actually use it (usually on the internet, for instance in fan fiction): it should take a form of "to be" in the phrase following it.
The word gives any written text—in whatever regional variety of English the reader or writer speaks—an air of pretentiousness and affectedness. Therefore it should not be used in any context except in direct relation to a British or Commonwealth-related subject. Telestylo 22:31, 26 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: over 40 million google hits doesn't seem to make it being phased out. Also whilst and while are perfectly interchangeable - your "to be" is incorrect. "However, in Britain it is considered to be a more formal and literary word than its counterpart.". Literary does not mean pretentious... So don't fix things that ain't broke Spearhead 22:42, 26 November 2005 (UTC)

text: *"Formal" and "literary" are the positively-connotative forms of "pretentious" :) Two sides of the same coin. (And Wikipedia is neither literature nor "formal", for that matter.) -Silence 01:47, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
replies: text:  stress the positively vs the negative ringing of "pretentious". Spearhead 11:19, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

text: Have you actually looked at any of the results. Many of these are from ac.uk or gov.uk sites, meaning British academic or government sites. Granted, whilst is typically more British English than American - that does not mean it is wrong. Also WP states that in case articles are not particular to a certain location, such as America or Britain, the original author's style should be respected. Spearhead 11:19, 27 November 2005 (UTC)

text: Maybe it's time to fix "your stuff". Even dictionaries give examples that don't have a form of to be beside it. Spearhead 11:19, 27 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Not needed? 

message: In the "Organic Hallucinosis" booklet, Vitek is in fact credited as "Witek". Yet on the official Decap website he seems to be still Vitek. A typo in the album credits perhaps? 203.129.151.4 10:47, 26 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, is this in there new albums booklet? cause there are some serious printing errors in it. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 83.67.90.147 (talk) 20:27, 9 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yep, the new album. I didn't notice any other printing errors although I haven't really looked through it that much.Demonofthefall 12:16, 10 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yeah there ain't any other printing errors but in thay middle section (shared with Vogg and Covan) the 'Thanks' parts are completely messed up.
whoever added 
"*Note* Witold Kiełtyka name is actually Witek (not Vitek). On'The Negation' Earache spells his name with a 'V', and on 'Organic Hallucinosis', Earache correctly spells his name with a 'W'. Witek has already comfirmed this, and stated that his name is spelt with a W, not a V."
You must be mistaken... Everywhere except on OH calls him Vitek. Even when i seen them years and years ago when they first to began to tour he responded when i called him Vitek and even roe recently he responded to vitek and i was chatting away to him.... The only place he is known as Witek is on OH were the booklet is a mess as i explained above. Possibly whoever created this booklet got mixed up between Witold and Vitek.
This is probably because Witek is pronounced Vitek when read by a Polish speaker. So, it's probably a matter of preference. InvertedSaint 03:57, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Vitek vs Witek? 

message: On the band's Myspace and on the label site, it says that Decapitated are now signed to Nuclear Blast Records. Is this the label that the new album will be on, and if so, shouldn't the entry reflect that?
