Talk:Mayday (Taiwanese band)

message: It's probably better if it is discussed--don't let an edit war start.
Put the opinions here.
It seems to me that citing Featured Articles was actually a good justification as they exmemplify how articles are written. 
Personally, I think the endorsements should not be considered advertisements -- they are part of articles about a band/group/singer; they demonstrate part of what these people have done or participated in (and, yes, I think the show notability and many show what companies have sponsored them).
To me, the sections are not telling people to buy or support anything (there are no external links, for one); they are there to add upon another aspect of these people.
Perhaps a solution/compromise would be to forgo the list format. Instead, the article may include parargraphs on major endorsements that affect the these people (ie. notablitiy, image, etc.).
Any opinions?

I was also wondering what to do with the "maygazines," as some of them also include words by the members themselves or by other authors (such as for 萬里狂奔), but some of them are mostly pictures.

thread_title: Other books

message: No problem, thanks for pointing out that Ashin only helped S.H.E by appearing in their music video and for 'loaning' their band name to their song. And, it's fine if you want to change the Chinese to all traditional characters to make it more standard.
About the books part, I believe Stone has co-written a book with his wife called <<我的摇滚妈咪>> about their marriage and raising their son. It's due in May so I think it would be good to include that as well.
Other than that, I'm still hoping that someone can help with the evolution of Mayday's musical style and how some of their musical techniques have changed over the years.

thread_title: Thanks for helping with the edit

message: Good job, Sh0rtcake, on the editting. It complies to the Mandarin version of the Mayday page, so that's great too.
I added tiny bits of information, changed some English ablum titles to the official ones and also tried to clarify the "Born to Love" concerts.
As for Guan You's name, I believe he mentioned usng "Ryan" once in an interview somewhere. However, since Guan You's the one that's usually used,I think it would make sense to stick with it.
I'm thinking of getting a table or list of books that they (or members of them) have released, so I'll attempt to add that if no one does. 
And, I was thinking, would it be better if the Chinese on the page is all traditional, so that it's more "organized as a whole?" I've changed some of them so far. But if anyone minds, feel free to say something.

thread_title:  some more edit 

message: Hey, doing some cleaning up, and I think Wiki's suggestions can be taken up to edit the page to make it less "fan-sitey". I'm trying to edit some of the grammar errors and remove the irrelevant trivia bits (sorry if it's really someone's hard work !) I've mor or less gotten the article in order but if anyone has any suggestions to make, please do, thanks.  -- Sh0rtcake 10:51, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  "This article or section resembles a fan site." 

message: Wiki says that this article resembles a fansite.  I think the reason for his is because of the little paragraphs after the basic member information, like real name, birthdate, etc.  I think it would be best if we get rid of those in order to meet Wiki standards, though I'm kinda iffy to delete it.  I wouldn't want to delete someones hard work just like that you know?  And Wiki might even consider that as "vandalsim" for getting rid of it like that.  Hm..  anyone agree with me?  --Bopomofo 01:31, 4 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Mayday_(band) and Wu Yue Tian are the exact same thing. Why remove the suggested merge tag? -- Dodo bird 05:34, 8 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Suggested merge 

message: A thought: Wouldn't "Mayday" be better for the article name? The article mostly refers the band as "Mayday", not "Wu Yue Tian", and also, the band calls themselves as "Mayday"... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ericlaw02 (talk • contribs) 15:23, 11 April 2007 (UTC)
