thread_title: Picture?

message: One can go to amazon.com  ("1962-1968: Hits and Highlights",  or the German version of wikipedia's article on Kim Carnes and see that she was part of the New Christy Minstrels, the famed folk group of the early '60's.  This would be an important fact to add to this article.  She herself completely seems to have avoided mention of this on her official website or on her myspace.com site.  Her picture is clearly on the cover of one of the NCM's albums.  I wonder what is up.  Daniel Sparkman (talk) 17:23, 29 August 2010 (UTC)

message: The current link for the word "paranoia" leads to the psychological definition of paranoia, which, in some ways, does not fit the concept that is being presented in the article.
The psychological term indicates an extreme condition in which an individual is fearful of everyone and feels that everyone is out to get them.
I propose that the word paranoia be linked to the article distrust as that better captures the idea of groups not being certain of each other's motivations.

message: This article contained a short primer on NYC heroin varieties. The source cited says:
overdosed of a potent mixture of alcohol and heroin (specifically a substance known as Red Rum)
I take this to mean using both concurrently (if not necessarily "mixed"), but the article isn't very clear, and in the end it isn't possible to know how they were used or how they were called. Nomenclature in this case is irrelevant. "Heroin and Alcohol" will do: as ambiguous as the source.

Talk:Access Virus

message: I don't understand the remark that the A,B,C models "lacked analog outputs". They have nothing *but* analog outputs. The B, for example, has 6 (mono, assignable) analog outputs. They had no *digital* outputs, but then neither did almost anything else in that period.
:additionally I know a very few synths that have more! It also has an stereo input, the TI has an SPDIF interface.
As far as multi-timbrality is concerned, the Virus B is certainly capable of 16-part multitimbral operation, depending on how resources are assigned. Remarks to the contrary are not NPOV. I might add that the Virus A,B,C were *enormously* popular and highly-respected synths which were heard *frequently* in important music of that period. 
:the Multi and Sequencer modes are very usable, the TI also removes the limitation of one single reverb/delay effect by adding reverb and delay for all 16 parts.
I might also add that, up until the TI difficulties, Access had an enviable reputation with its users, largely for frequent software updates that followed for years after purchase ... I'll certify that because I spent years on the user mailing list. Twang 09:01, 14 March 2006 (UTC)

hi there - i see no one ever replied to you here. so-called “notability” can be fairly difficult to qualify, but in general, if an artist has a wiki page, they would be considered sufficiently “notable” to list in a section such as this. i don’t see why any editor would have encyclopedic cause to remove it, given that they fulfill the above criteria & are (as per the interview you’ve linked), a self-professed user of this synthesizer.

Talk:Brazilian Communist Party

message: The real issue here, from an encyclopedic standpoint, is that there are two very different points of view about whether the current PCB is in fact the successor of the old PCB or if it's a splinter of the PPS (and in that case, the PPS is the "real" successor to the "old" PCB). Currently the article, as it is written, strongly favors one of these points of view. It should be rewritten to address this -- the reader should be informed that that there was a Congress, there were some doubts about its validity (naming/quoting the critics), the actual results of that Congress, any disputes in the Court system, how the situation stands now (from both parts) and such. And a similar job would have to be done on the PPS page, in order for both to be consistent -- right now, they tell two very different stories. MCBastos (talk) 13:09, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I did some changes, withstanding the argument about the legalities of the 1992 congress.

thread_title: Deleted lists

message: IMHO the article is not high-quality yet.
For example Pure Balboa vs. Bal-Swing is very badly explained. The "basic footwork" given is just one very common variation. If you want to start with an "8 count basic", it should be explained as "step-step-hold, step-step-hold". Figures are badly explained and/or include stuff that shouldn't be there (for example, Texas Tommy doesn't require the lead to heel-slide).
IMHO, it should start with Pure Balboa and the body lead, then introduce the common 8-count pattern and the different common holds (up-holds, downhold, shuffles, break), then introduce some one-steps to mix in. One-Steps can then be combined to make 'bigger' moves (e.g starting on 5: right-close-down, left-close-down to create a Waltzer-like movement. Pivots by turning on downholds. etc.).
Next it could delve into Bal-Swing, Transition Step, Throwouts. These differ substantially from Pure Balboa, because they are lead quite differently. Of course they are part of Balboa (that's why they belong into the article), but they are of a different nature.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.174.126.165 (talk) 18:07, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
