message: Somebody can edit the list of "To be announced by the organisers/Rumoured" by the venue they may be preforming at? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 38.117.149.162 (talk) 19:13, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  To be announced by the organisers/Rumoured 

message: - I've deleted the little line at the top of the article stating "However, unlike Live Aid and Live 8, a strong lack of ticket sales has been noticed." There is no citation on this statement, so I've deleted it from the page. --alexdeangelis86 15:35, 5 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Where is there confirmation of this?  I did not see it listed on the official website.  StarIV 20:47, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

message: Do we really need the pictures of the stadiums etc. at the moment? Maybe actual concert pictures after the event would be better suited, and nothing for the time being other than specific Live Earth pics.
I don't really see a problem with that. It's even a nice bit of info, IMO, since people can take a look at the sites for the concerts. I'm for reinstating them. The real problem, as I see (more on it down the page) is people putting line-ups which aren't official and helping spread misinformation through the internet. If you can help me stopping that... :-) Cheers. JimboB 14:33, 20 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Pictures 

message: I removed Snoop Dogg's name from the list of performers for the Brazilian concert and someone reinstated it. I just wish people were more careful about what they do and check the history page. As I stated there, you just need to check Snoop Dogg's official website to see he's gonna perform in Spain on Live Earth day. Never mind the reference to his presence in O Globo's article: that is a few weeks old, already. If he announces he changed his mind, then we can change it here. JimboB 23:28, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Snoop Dogg 

message: People insist on adding concert line-ups which are not official. How hard it is to understand that Wikipedia is not a place for unofficial info (I don't even think there should be a "Rumored" section, by the way)? For the fourth or fifth time - I really lost count - I deleted every line-up but the American, British and Aussie ones, the only ones which were OFFICIALLY announced, therefore the only ones which should be featured here. I'd be very grateful if people stopped adding confusing info. I suggest you add names to the "Rumoured" list instead, stating where is it that they're rumoured to appear at.

thread_title: Concert line-ups

message: the first person who deleted my work couldn't even be bothered apparently to google about the item because its all over Google news. I didn't add a citation because I didn't see citation links for any other entries. Now somebody reentered the information with a cited link and that gets deleted too.
:It's not at all confirmed, it's just rumours, nothing about that on the official liveearth-site.--NSX-Racer 13:34, 27 May 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It's being reported by half a dozen mainstream news sources that he has signed on to perform there. That isn't a "rumor". The only rumor involved with is the notion that it will actually be a Led Zeppelin reunion (IE, Page and Jones will join him). Robert Plant is different than Led Zeppelin. A Led Zeppelin reunion is a rumor, Robert Plant at Live Earth is not.

text: The truth is that Robert Plant has a long planned gig on july, 8th in Bucharest, that has nothing to do with Live Earth and is not mentioned on any of the official sites. Period.--NSX-Racer 09:09, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Why do people keep deleting the Bucharest and Robert Plant entries when they're as cited as any other entries that don't get deleted ? 

message: It has been reported that Metallica, Kasabian and Pussycat dolls have also been confirmed does anyone have a source that can confirm if this is true?

thread_title:  Turkey? 

message: I'm going to remove some names from the German list. I cannot find any official confirmation of the following performers on either the LiveEarth site or their personal websites.  In some cases, these artists are scheduled to perform elsewhere.  The artists being removed:
Maria Mena
MIA
Samy Deluxe
Stefan Gwiblis
Also removing "Strings" from the US list, the link leads to a disambig page and the only band listed on that page is from Pakistan, so they are unlikely.  Risker 16:57, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
