Talk:Dirty Pretty Things (band)

message: Official site keeps getting changed from http://www.dirtyprettythingsband.com to http://www.dirtyprettythings.co.uk The .co.uk is a fan site, not the official site. It is barely notable and seems to contain nothing of not compared to official site and I am tempted to remove it entirely. What's the consensus? Super Ted 02:08, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: According to a post at the official libertines website @ http://www.thelibertines.org.uk/index.php?/new_news/more/dirty_pretty_things_announce_another_london_gig/ The official site is www.dirtyprettythingsband.com However both appear to redirect to the same page. I'd prefer to revert the article back to that link as it would appear that that is the bands intended new address based on that post. However, both redirect to the same page so I'm not too concerned at the moment and would only be ensuring that the link stays active for the forseeable future. Any objections to me reverting your change on those grounds? Super Ted 21:23, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

text: And on a separate note, someone again changed the official site link to .co.uk.  I think this is actually vandalism by someone trying to promote that fan site.  I agree that it's worth dropping it altogether as a link because it has no useful information that isn't on the official site. OneVeryBadMan 14:18, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
replies: text:  Have dropped link now. He's also vandalising Carl Barat as well so if you could help me by keeping an eye on that page that'd be great too. Super Ted 16:27, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

message: An unregistered user added "(a.k.a. Dirtys)" after the band's name.  I have never heard this used, so I'm going to revert it.  All of the fans on their forum and in every other source I've seen abbreviate the name as "DPT," never "Dirtys." OneVeryBadMan 23:21, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

message: Can we please stop adding links to websites that provide little information or significance to the band itself?   However This is objective and informative.  It's comprehensive, critical, and well-written.  -- Sarah (20 Oct 2005 9:49pm EST)
I've removed three links that have been added recently, for the following reasons:
*One was a duplicate link to the official website, under its '.co.uk' registration rather than its '.com' one.
*One was to the Australian DPT website; if you think their worth an article, write one and we'll create a 'Dirty Pretty Things' disambigaution page
*The third was to the recrod label's sight; I'd be inclined to keep this if people wern't intent on adding link after link, but its relevance here is at best tenuous Robdurbar 13:38, 6 December 2005 (UTC)

message: The version of the song that's floating about the net right now is just a demo, ripped from a flash movie on the band's website, and has not been released as an official single.  The last paragraph of this article referencing this song as a single needs to be revised. Saj 22:49, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

replies: text: It's either Didz or Anthony, mostly likely Didz, but only because I'm going by their own Wikipedia pages where it specifically says Didz is a DPT backing vocalist... AllySDude 16:09, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:Dpt bang bang.ogg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.
