Talk:Volume Two (The Soft Machine album)

message: I reverted someone's change to put in total times for the 2 suites, noting that the times entered do not match the totals of the parts.  Nor does the album's total time in the infobox match either the sum of the parts nor the sum when suite totals are used.  I often see this kind of problem when different editors are using different CD editions to get their timings.  In these cases I prefer to insist that original LP timings be used, unless it can be demonstrated they are way off.  If they are off by a few seconds, then the timing differences on CDs can be attributed to a difference of opinion as to where a track starts or stops (particularly where there are suites or tracks that segue), and sometimes a bit of silence at the end of a track or side will get included in a CD's timing.
After doing the revert, I pulled out my LP copy and changed the timings to match what is printed on the cover.  As I expected, most tracks were different by a few seconds, with no differences major enough to justify not using the original times.  The total time in the infobox should be changed to match the total of the parts; I'll do that next.  As for suite totals, do we need them?  Were they added because someone has a CD edition that does not break the sections into tracks, i.e. their CD has all of side 1 as track 1 with a time of 17+ minutes?  BTW, my LP is not an original, it's an Italian edition (but still on the Probe label) with the first two Soft Machine albums combined in one gatefold cover, issued in 1973.  I'm guessing these times are copied from the original US edition, but if someone can confirm this, that would be great.
Please discuss any reasons for further changes to timings here, before proceeding.  Changes without discussion should be reverted. --A Knight Who Says Ni (talk) 01:56, 12 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Track timings 

message: On the first UK release as a vinyl LP SPB1002 on the Probe label, there was no mention on the album cover or the LP itself that the two sides ("suites") were titled "Rivmic Melodies" and "Esther's Nose Job". The back cover of the LP included monochrome photos of the band members.
https://i.pinimg.com/564x/82/a8/da/82a8da2dbcd378c3a8698318bc3819a8.jpg
The two titles seem to be a later concoction around the time of later releases not on Probe - including the even later 2008-2009 release on the Polydor label.  In this case the back cover, along with the added wording, included different colour photographs.

On the original album, the words "rhythmic melodies" appear in the lyrics of the first track on side 1 "Pataphysical Introduction (Part 1)".

message: I propose to tidy up :Category:Australian Parliaments a little by creating a new sub category within it called -  :Category:Parliaments of the Australian States and Territories . This category would contain articles on the Parliaments but not lists of previous parliaments. The category would then be listed at :Category:Legislatures of subnational entities in place of :Category:Australian Parliaments.  This would mean that this article will be listed under the new :Category:Parliaments of the Australian States and Territories instead of the current :Category:Australian Parliaments.

message: Gamaliel, don't delete the information on the high school again. I live in Winchester, and one of the more common local topics, especially recently, is the high school. The information listed is true, and kept as NPOV as possible while discussing criticisms. I wanted to add some information to the article to keep my city from being another bland, by-the-templates city article on Wikipedia. I live in the actual city, you live in Florida. I have much more experince with the topic than you.
It was also really rude of you to mark the deletion of an entire paragraph of information as a "minor" change. User:Not_a_slave, October 10, 2005, 8:55 PM EST
Dale Station should not be listed under historic sites, as it is not in Winchester Kentucky.

This doesn't mean there shouldn't be any names named in the article; someone reading through the whole thing will still learn that Franklin Roosevelt instituted the New Deal, that Lyndon Johnson started the Great Society programs, and so on, because these are concrete and factual historical accomplishments associated with liberalism. But a section called "Notable American Liberals" well get bloated and be subject to endless dispute, as we're seeing here.

It is an important distinction to make, as it has implications for approaching the situational irony throughout the tales. Mostly, I am stating that Chaucer being the narrator of the tales in general is NOT a 100% certain fact and that their are two sides to the debate.

Wikipedia talk:Requests for adminship/V. Molotov

message: A statement:
I have generally been disdained and pissed off by generally arrogant editors on this site, who bring up ancient history and a recent outburst to oppose me on my RfA - without looking into the fact that I had been contributing edits and had effectively set a high standard for every article I have edited or created. They have chosen a vandal (Gadugi/Jeff Merkey) and a known provoker of vandalism and edit wars (i.e. DreamGuy), over me. In my opinion they do not have the discretion to accredit hard working Wikipedians, hold grudges, and have generally betrayed me as some of those people on my opposition I had helped before. Although the idiot comment against Gadugi is completely warranted - they do not seem to care. Neither do I, and it is for that reason that I see little incentive to want to contribute to this site, as it has only provoked my anger for the last few months. I don't need Wikipedia...on the other hand, Wikipedia needs users such as I, and other hard workers, who actually take the time out of their lives to take bullcrap on a daily basis and get vandalized in the process. Furthermore, the lack of recognition and the quickness to point out mistakes has led me to the conclusion that I have no reason to be on this site. I want to revert every good thing that I did here...erase all those articles, and put back in all the vandalism that I had taken out, just to demonstrate what one user's value really is on a different perspective. RickK had emphatically stated that there is a fatal flaw in this system - that being those of intellectual, and arrogant pricks who are running the others like they are in a zoo. I have left Wikipedia before, and had only come back because other Wikipedians told me my presence was needed here...that what I was doing was notable and admirable. Apparently, they are not correct, as my RfA had proved to me that I have no reason to be here. I have recently been invited to join WikiBooks, and Spanish and Portuguese sites...so I may stick around there, but I am not sure as this entire site has me "flustered" with a general lack of judgement and arrogance.

However, perhaps I'm asking too much, but I'd really like to see a detailed list of all the PDFA commercials. It would just be interesting to have a log of even more of the famous and not-quite-so-famous ones.
For instance, there was one PDFA ad I remember from being a child that really scared me. It was a slideshow of the most famous people who died of drug overdoses, including Janis Joplin and Jim Morrison. I just remember that clicking sound the slideshow machine made. It still gives me chills to this day, yet I'm eager to find it. However, I've looked on YouTube, but I can't locate it. It would at least be nice to know when this commercial and others went into production, and what the general gist of it was.
