message: German techno group? rofl
Who put this?  What else what you class it as then?  It's techno... happy hardcore, trance, whatever, all originate from techno.  The band themselves call their music 'techno'... and their official website is called 'Scootertechno' DShamen 23:10, 6 July 2006 (UTC)

text: I have listened to electronic dance music for about fifteen years (including Scooter) and I would say that Scooter's music has never been hardcore or techno. It has, however, been rave and happy hardcore and sometimes even trance. Mostly, Scooter has their own genre based on happy hardcore. Someone has been altering the genres, it should be stopped. There is nothing wrong in being a happy hardcore musician (or at least not much...), there is no reason why there should be these genres (techno, hardcore) listed. Not everything with a drum machine is techno and not every techno track with a distorted TR-808 bass drum is hardcore. Mstuomel 19:40, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

text: I think, I know this guy. Whan I managed an article in RU-Wiki, one man was very strong in his suggestions about this band. And he really thouth that Scooter is eurodance. His right of course, but he's really wrong.--Oleg Abarnikov (talk) 09:07, 2 January 2008 (UTC)

text:  Mostly, Scooter has their own genre based on happy hardcore (Mstuomel). ^^^... no they don't! They got all their ideas from Ultra-Sonic and the Scottish hardcore rave scene. It's been written in the past in magazines. --Revolt (talk) 09:06, 8 October 2008 (UTC)

text: Yup, and let's not forget the 1930's and 1960's jumpstyle/hardstyle/tekkno/whatever songs which inspire Scooter...ah, c'mon, who's so retarded to believe that the complete output of a band can be classified by one single genre???

message: According to www.australian-charts.com the only songs that charted by Scooter were "The Logical Song" and "Nessaja" .. yet somehow other songs are noted there? It should be specified if it was just the club charts, because they are completely different to the regular charts.

message: I have noticed that this article is in danger of going into edit war. Anonymous IP addresses constantly add "fan sites" offering mp3 downloads and edit the genres. Some consensus should be reached or perhaps some expert attention is needed? Mstuomel 08:52, 30 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Possible edit war 

message: Right, fed up of this nonsense... as far as I'm concerned, they largely produce what can be loosely described as 'techno'... they have done happy hardcore and hardcore (both forms of 'rave' music) in the early 90s, and have always done a number of tracks with trance-like influences, and have more recently produced music with hard house influences.  I'm all for the inclusion of all of these genres.  DShamen 02:08, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

message: I think using four nonfree images is a bit much in this article. Can we decide on one and get rid of the others? Album covers are really only fair use on the article about the album itself, but I would accept one (though other admins may differ). Rather than just removing them all I thought I would open it up for further discussion. Please see WP:FAIRUSE for more details. --John (talk) 21:21, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I believe, every single one of the images should be kept because each represents a different Scooter-chapter/era as well as different third member. Yes, we do have four images, first of which represents Celebrate the Nun (not active beyond 1991), then we have the second image which includes Sören Bühler (aka Ferris Büller) who left the act in 1998, in the third one, there is Axel Broszeit (aka Axel Coon) who has not been with the band since 2002, and the fourth image has Jürgen Frosch (aka Jay Frog) within, who in his turn, has not been with the act ever since Michael Simon replaced him in 2006. Consequently, I'd say we should keep them all not only because they all have been deliberated and approved by administrators but also because they all provide an immediate relevance to the reader more capably than the textual description would . --Harout72 (talk) 02:41, 26 February 2008 (UTC)

message: Should there be a section regarding the controversy the band causes in the worldwide dance community? Im sure there are lots of soucres. MindWraith (talk) 01:57, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that would be a good idea. There could also be mentioned, that the band released the track Posse under the pseudnoym Guess Who! and Nessaya under the pseudonym 3 A.M.. They did that to make fun of some electronic music magazines, because different Magazines like Raveline in Germany don't like Scooter and rated their tracks always very low. Knowing not that these tracks were from Scooter they gave them better ratings. 87.178.119.11 (talk) 15:20, 20 February 2010 (UTC)
thread_title: Criticism section?

message: Whilst the opening line of the first version says "Scooter is", the rest of the article uses non-American English ("their more well-known hits", "their début single", "played their first live show") and has continued to do since then. One line in a five year old stub article hardly seems justification for suddenly Americanising the whole article. 
According to the Manual of Style: An article on a topic that has strong ties to a particular English-speaking nation uses the English of that nation. There are no American members in Scooter, the band has been to America about twice in their career and are not particularly big there. Whilst there are no British members in Scooter either, it is fair to say that they have stronger ties to that country than the U.S., what with 10 top 40 hits, a widely publicised number one album, numerous TV appearances, tours and even a single "Back in the U.K.". Syxx (talk) 13:44, 6 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: "Their more well-known hits", "their début single", and "played their first live show" are all perfectly fine American English. Why would you think such phrases are non-American? Whether an article uses American or British English probably reflects the nationality of the editors. --JHP (talk) 06:50, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Ahh, I see the lame edit war of October 2009. American English can easily switch back and forth between "its" and "their". Take this little bit from the Green Day article: "Green Day is an American punk rock band formed in 1987. ... In 1994, its major label debut Dookie became a breakout success ... They have won four Grammy Awards..." --JHP (talk) 07:33, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
