Talk:Hide (musician)

message: While /hi.de/ may be correct, do you really expect someone who doesn't know Japanese pronounciations to go to that page and look up how it's supposed to be pronounced?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.107.130.33 (talk) 13:49, 1 October 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: That's the idea behind a :hyperlinked encyclopedia, yes. There is also little sense in using something a US newspaper once printed, rather than using a system like the :International Phonetic Alphabet, just to be accommodating to a certain subset of readers (keep in mind that English pronunciation varies, even between countries were it is the official language). - Cyrus XIII (talk) 16:31, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

message: There was a museum dedicated to hide after the time of his death that had to close a few years ago due to funding issues. Can we get a mention of that?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.195.120.63 (talk) 10:33, 11 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Of course. Either go ahead and add the information, accompanied by a reliable source or provide a source here and I'll be glad to integrate it into the article. - Cyrus XIII (talk) 16:31, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

message: For all interested parties, there is a discussion going on right now at  the Manual of Style about whether or not to capitalize people's names against their wishes (like hide, for example). --Irn (talk) 18:10, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

message: When he died, there were tons of reports of fans committing suicide, but no mention of it here. There's still lots of articles about it on the web.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.160.77.255 (talk) 01:30, 14 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Death. 

message: Sorry for asking, but as a non native speaker i dont get this phrase:
:making it the only original studio album to bear the Hide with Spread Beaver handle
That far i've fiddled out that "Spread Beaver" is the first track on the "Ja, Zoo" album. track=handle? or might this resemble rather to some (handy) logo used on the album, or even to the title design (a caged human in a cat suite and cat alike posing). Maybe there is some other meaning of all that wording. Please explain and if possible make the article more readable. Thanks. --Alexander.stohr (talk) 13:20, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I just re-read that paragraph and looked at some other articles, and it appears to me that Spread Beaver is the name of the band he toured with and that he did not formally acknowledge them on his first two solo albums, but on his last "solo" album (Ja, Zoo), the artist is listed not just as "hide" but as "hide with Spread Beaver". I agree that the above wording is fairly confusing, so I went ahead and added some punctuation and clarification to hopefully make it make more sense. -- Irn (talk) 16:09, 31 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  i dont get that 

message: Can someone with a good grasp of wp:rs, wp:or, and wp:synth please take a good look at this article, especially the sources?  The overwhelming number of the sources are from the official fan site 
.  There are also photographs , musical scores 
, merchandising websites 
, and apparently someone watching a concert As seen on the Alivest Perfect Stage video release.
are used as sources.
The only "good" sources seem the be the asiaweek.com article, as well as a NYT online article 
 , both of which focus primarily on his death. Something, it seems, should be done, but I'm not sure what.  Thanks, The Eskimo (talk) 19:53, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: Although it says it is the official "fan club" website, it is basically his official site period, as Headwax Organization owns and operates it. So I think sources from that site should be accepted. But I agree, the photos of his relatives should go, as should the sources of "someone watching a concert DVD", and the merchandising website sources should be changed to the product's official website (ex: his guitars sourced to ESP Guitars' website). But I am basically useless in this as I really don't know how to cite that well. Xfansd (talk) 20:53, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: No worries.  I am not all that great at adding sources either, nor interpreting some policies, which is why I opened up a request for comment.  Hopefully this RFC will result in the article becoming much better as more experienced editors take a look at it. The Eskimo (talk) 21:03, 19 November 2010 (UTC)
