Talk:Meco

message: I'm moving this content over from Millennium Record Company and putting a redirect there to this article.  It doesn't look like there was anything there that shouldn't be in this article instead, but since there's no sources on any of it, I'm not sure how much is relevant and should actually be included.  So here it is:
:Millennium Record Company Originally Started In 3 West 57th Street New York, N.Y. 10019 When 1977 Came. The Staff At Millennium Records Joined With Casablanca Records & Filmworks, Along With Neil Bogart's Permission. Meco Monardo Signed With Millennium Records When He Came Up With Making His 1st Album "Star Wars & Other Galactic Funk" Meco Monardo's Stage Name Was "Meco". In The Fall Of 1977, He Made His 2nd Album Titled "Encounters Of Every Kind" With The 3 Hit Singles "Topsy", "Meco's Theme" & "Theme From Close Encounters". In Early 1978, Meco Had The Idea Of Making His 3rd Album Called "The Wizard Of Oz". When Millennium Records Decided To Move To RCA Records In The Fall Of 1978, Meco Stood By Casablanca Records & Filmworks. Neil Bogart & The Staff At Casablanca Records & Filmworks Knew How Much Meco Loved Working With Millennium Records. In October 1978, Meco Made His 4th Album For Casablanca Records & Filmworks Called "Superman & Other Galactic Heroes". The Casablanca Staff Loved The Idea. In 1979, Meco Made His 5th Album Called "Moondancer" With The 3 Hit Singles "Moondancer", "Grazing In The Grass" & "Devil's Delight". In 1980, Meco Made His 6th Album Called "Music From Star Trek & Music From The Black Hole". In 1981 Meco Made His 7th & Final Album For Casablanca Records & Filmworks Called "American Warewolf In London".

message: That claim cannot stand in the article without a cite. If it really is true, it probably shouldn't be too hard to find a good cite. I also removed the dubious claim from Star Wars and Other Galactic Funk that the single is the best selling instrumental single of all time. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.

replies: text: As you will notice, I have attempted to argue a point concerning this removal with another editor who has a somewhat idiosyncratic approach to collaborative work and dialogue. I do concede your point, but I also figure that the claim about sales of the album surpassing John Williams' original score has a better chance of getting verified if it remains in the article with a maintenance tag, pending fulfillment of the reference request. If after 36 months the request hasn't been fulfilled, it would be appropriate to remove the statement. I believe this would be well in line with common practice in a matter where BLP is not an issue. __meco (talk) 20:01, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Meco - why add the template requesting verification now after having put the claim there yourself almost a year ago (11 December 2007)? Please stop gaming the system. Regards from your friendly, neighbourhood "idiosyncratic" Wikipedia editor. Copy to Meco's talkpage. --Technopat (talk) 20:11, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Apart from your consistent facetious joviality, which I find inappropriate and a sign of lack of civility, and adding to that a show of bad faith, you seem to subscribe to the notion that an editor who makes a contribution to an article has the sole responsibility of making corrections to their contribution. I have written most of this article based on information provided by a fan website. That means obviously that some of the information which I have decided to include will have to be verified at a later time. As one such statement has now been identified, it should be dealt with as a matter of course and normal procedures, not as an urgent BLP violation, which this most certainly isn't, which is the course that you have demanded in this case. __meco (talk) 20:44, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Just reference it, please. This is an encyclopaedia, not a fan site. Thank you.--Technopat (talk) 20:57, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

text: My view is that uncited but uncontroversial and believable claims can remain with a "citation needed" tag. Highly dubious ones should be removed. We use our editorial judgment to determine the difference between believable and dubious, and we work toward editorial consensus if there is disagreement. Mike R (talk) 21:59, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I would agree that a claim of a world record should not be allowed to stay pending fulfillment of a citation request. If you find the assertion about record sales surpassing the original movie soundtrack also to be too dubious for it to stand with a request tag, I am indeed surprised, however if that's your call, I will not contest it. __meco (talk) 22:14, 7 October 2008 (UTC)
