thread_title:  VANDALISM 

message: I'm cleaning this up.  This article has specifically copied from http://www.theworld.org/globalhits/2005/06/30.shtml.  Secondly, the song "Ta Tudo Dominado" has also been credited to Bonde do Tigrao.  Which one is correct?
the correct is SD Boys, i think.
Furacão 2000 is not an artist. its a soundsytem/label/club.<BR>

replies: text: I reverted your change. "Ball" IS the most literal translation of "baile"; it might also mean "bola", but they are just homonyms. See http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/ball or Debutante ball. --Cotoco 04:39, 19 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Quick Revision 

message: how does brazilian funk relate to baile funk; is it the same or something slightly different? the brazilian funk notes that the "funk is viewed as a overly loud, aggressive, sociopathic form of music by many of brazilian elite" where as this one states "Thousands of people of all social classes and backgrounds will gather to attend these events". i'm confused. --MilkMiruku 05:03, 13 November 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  the same genre 

message: When I discovered this entry many months back, it simply stated that Baile Funk was Miami Bass from Brazil. After meeting with many Brazilian Bass artists, they explained to me that "Baile Funk" was the name of the parties, and "Funk Carioca" was the name of the music. 
In Portuguese, the adjective comes after the noun. So "red car" would be "car of red". Therefore, Baile Funk translates to "[Baile]dance party of [Funk] Bass music", and Funk Carioca translates to "[Funk] Bass [Carioca] from Rio". 
I discovered the mistranslation came from labels outside of Brazil compiling the music and calling it Baile Funk in error thinking Baile was the adjective and Funk was the subject since English places adjectives first. With the term Baile Funk, baile is the subject - it's a dance party, and Funk describes what type of party.
I came here months ago and added to the entry that "Baile Funk" now represents the party itself to Brazilians, and the music itself to people outside brazil...but during the cleanup, my words got mangled to say that Baile Funk is English slang. If I alter my words back, it will destroy the entry, and I'd have to rewrite the entire thing. Being a mod went out of their way to do the cleanup, I don't want to destroy their work. 
Can you please redefine this entry to take in account the description above?
While I agree that Baile Funk generally refers to the parties, I know Brazilians and Funk artists that now refer to it as Baile Funk. In fact, my friends that live in the favelas told me that "Funk Carioca" is something used by the mainstream media and press. I speak Portuguese and am aware of its meaning in the language. While it may be worth noting the dual meaning of this, this article devotes way too much time on the distinction and in fact its English name (whether misinterpreted or not) has become Baile Funk. ----cut copy 03:18, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: Funk Carioca is the music, Baile Funk is the dance party

message: I don't think the recent edit that added the Funk category was correct at all.  As explained in the article, Funk Carioca has very little to do with American Funk.
Agreed. That's why I removed it. --cut copy 03:15, 28 December 2005 (UTC)
thread_title: category funk

message: Hi all, 
I made a few changes to the article, especially regarding the naming of the genre, and the difference between Baile Funk (the party) and Funk (the music). I also added a tag suggesting this should be merged into Brazilian funk.
Even though this article is more complete than Brazilian funk, and increasingly the genre is being called "Baile funk" in English, I feel this article should not be under this name. There could be an article with this name about the bailes themselves, but it shouldn't be about the music genre.
The use of the term "baile funk" in English is, as far as I can tell, a misnomer (but see last paragraph of this comment for a possible alternate explanation). Of course Wikipedia should not advocate what the proper name for the music should be (as we are only supposed to describe what IS), and indeed, as I said already, it has increasingly been called by that name, at least in North America. But it seems to me that this is a recently-imported term, and therefore its usage hasn't stabilized enough that we could conclude that this is the most common name (in English) for this music genre. I'm not 100% sure that "Brazilian funk" is the best title for the article either, but so far it seems the best candidate. There should be a redirect from "Baile funk" to "Brazilian funk" (or whatever article name is chosen; unless someone creates an article specifically about the bailes) and, obviously, mention that Brazilian funk is also known, in English, as "Baile funk". But "Baile funk" is not an appropriate name for this article, in my opinion.
On the other hand, though, someone could advocate that the expression "Baile Funk", in English, means "Funk from the Bailes [funk]", but I don't think that is the rationale of the people who currently call it that, and I think it's somewhat counterproductive to use that label, due to the confusion with the Portuguese expression.

message: A lot of non-Brazilian artists have appriated the style of funk do Rio: Diplo, M.I.A., Peahes, etc. There should be something in here about this. —Morganfitzp 13:13, 27 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Hello, I don't know what are the policies here, but I cleaned up the links section and organized it better. There we're many links that had nothing or little to do with baile funk, or were expired. (Tchiky; your mix had expired, can you put it back?) I think it's much clearer now. Please let me know if you disagree... Dj Rideon from Helsinki Finland.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.163.31.190 (talk) 16:49, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: ABUSING EDITING

message: There are some "Bailes Funk" that let women (and underage girls too) in for free in case they are not wearing their underwears. I know this may sound absurd, but that's exactly why I believe it's worth adding to the "Criticism" section. However, I didn't find a reliable source for it. If anyone finds it, please do add to the article. Victor Lopes (talk) 23:47, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
