Talk:Skunk Anansie

message: Skunk Anansie have reformed (03/03/2009) and have released tickets (Sold out) for their first two gigs at the Water Rats in Kings Cross http://www.skinmusic.net/main.php Someone who knows what they're doing with Wikipedia might want to edit this article to point that out?
Update:
Thanks who ever did that. I went to the Thursday gig and they have reformed, sung some new stuff etc. Someone who knows what they're doing may want to edit the article to the present tense e.g. change "Skunk Anansie were a British rock band" etc  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.28.217.152 (talk) 18:31, 3 April 2009 (UTC)

message: The linked album pages from the Discography are in need of much work, a lot don't exist.
Prior to my update this page also listed Skunk Anansie as only having 3 releases!! There are over 70 (see the Amazon link at External Links)...

replies: text: Hi.  We don't list every version of every album in band discographies.  We certainly don't list every release of the same album on different media or under different catalogue numbers, nor do we list every appearance by the band on compilation albums.  Please see: Wikipedia:Guide to layout#Standardized appendices and Wikipedia:Filmographies and Discographies.  If you have any questions about this, feel free to bring it up at the appropriate Talk pages.  If it is very important to you that Wikipedia readers know that these albums have been released in various formats, you should consider contributing to the album articles.  See WP:ALBUM for details on writing album articles. Jkelly 15:21, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

text: Hi.  Amazon.com, while a very useful link for shopping, certainly returns a great number of albums that Skunk Anansie songs are on.  As a source for band discographies, we tend to use All Music Guide.  You'll note that AMG lists all three albums that the band produced.  I'd like to encourage you to stop cutting and pasting from Amazon.com, and consider reading some of the guidelines above.  Since it seems very, very important to you to have the Amazon.com information in the article, I am not going to revert it for the time being.  Also, I notice that you listed that Amazon link on the Talk page of each album article.  In the future, keep in mind that there's no need to do that.  Jkelly 16:28, 23 November 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: My understanding was that the name anansie referred to some stinky skunk or civet type animal in Jamaican slang/patois/argot, I don't have the reference in front of me right now, so I'll just mention it here.9eyedeel (talk) 19:31, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Anansie name origin 

message: I find the sentence claiming that Skunk Anansie are known for their anti-Christianity messages somewhat confusing. I know their music and do not see their music as anti-christian. The song Selling Jesus is not even anti-christian, just merely attacking one part of christianity, who can be seen to guilt trip you into giving them money. Does anyone have any proof to back the statement in the article up? Gothesque 13:41, 11 January 2007 (UTC)

message: I included Kelv's Skunk Anansie site in the external links once before as it has been around almost as long as the band and is the only one still going. Is there a good reason it was removed? --Phantomflanflinger 18:34, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

message: I removed these samples from the article, they were included as a list at the bottom of the article. And that was not really fair use. Nor did it help the article.

thread_title:  Song samples 

message: I have undone IP edits to this article and Skin (musician) with no edit summary which remove :File:Mark Richardson.jpg and :File:Skunk Anansie - 02.jpg, replace :File:Skunk Anansie.jpg & :File:Deborah Anne Dyer aka Skin.jpg in the infoboxes with :File:Skunk Anansie in rome by Paride.jpg and replace :File:Skin Eska Music Awards.jpg with the copyrighted image :Image:FakeChemicalState.jpg.
In the case of the album cover, copyrighted cover art should only be used 'for visual identification only in the context of critical commentary of that item' - there is no critical commentary in the Skin article about this album. For the other images they seem to me to be obviously of better quality.
Could we please discuss this here rather than WP:EDITWARRING. JMiall₰ 10:56, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
