Talk:Jazz drumming

message: I'm finding titles that are worded all lowercase. Please fix this. Remember that words like "in", "of", "and", "the", and "for" are not capitalized. — ObentoMusubi - Contributions 05:50, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Citations improperly capitalized 

message: As much as I wish I could pass this article, this is simply not ready for being a good article. I believe that the citations are improperly capitalized, there is a lot of jargon, and a bit disorganized as to the way it was written. I hope that when you nominate it in the future, it is of a better quality. Please do not take this as a personal attack. Please instead use this as a way to improve the article. — ObentoMusubi - Contributions 18:04, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Failed GAN 

message: I wanted to look at it again, and I must congratulate you for making so many edits to Jazz drumming, Kakofonous. It looks much better now. I'd be ecstatic to see where it would be in a month! — ObentoMusubi - Contributions 00:55, 10 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: There are still lots of places that badly need references. Sorry, but putting it up for GA again so soon after the last one seems a bit hopeful.--andreasegde (talk) 13:33, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

text: I have formatted the refs correctly.--andreasegde (talk) 14:24, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: First of all, there is no one correct method of formatting references in Wikipedia. I chose to use a particular method; in this case the APA citation style. Changing one type of external link to another does not necessarily make it better or worse, and everything I had done was, to my knowledge, within the style recommendations. Secondly, I fail to see what specific sections require the references that you are asking for. Many of the references apply to large sections, and at some points they are not needed, as I am not making controversial assertions or BLP claims. When this is done, the sources are cited. If you see a statement that should be cited, please either place a  tag on it or mention it here on the talk page. Thirdly, the reference formatting that you have done has, regretfully, done more harm than good. The instance in which I cited the film Jazz, for instance, I was not describing it in the text, but merely verifying a statement I had made with information from that film. You also caused one of the references I had used (a PDF file about the history of Latin jazz) to disappear from the list of references. I think, while formatting, you may have mixed it up with another reference. Thanks, Kakofonous (talk) 15:27, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

text: If you look at the article's history, all I was trying to do was fix the citations that had become incorrect; I did not revert all the changes that you had made. I do not understand why this incivility is necessary; insulting me in your edit summary does not seem constructive. Best, Kakofonous (talk) 15:53, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: You obviously like these tit-for-tats, but I don't. I was not being uncivil in the slightest, so don't try that old trick. I did not insult you in the edit summary, because there was nothing to read. I wish you the best. --andreasegde (talk) 15:56, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

text: As for, "First of all, there is no one correct method of formatting references in Wikipedia", I refer the young person to his/her own comments on a review: "References need standard formatting." That is double-talk, and not to be respected. What a waste of time these little comments are, which is why this wil be the last. --andreasegde (talk) 23:59, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: That particular comment, I believe, was to tell the article's nominator that the references within the article were not standard amongst each other—some were formatted one way, others in another way. I would also like to address the problem we've had here; if you do not wish to respond, you are not obliged to, as you have indicated above that you do not wish to do so. I admit that I probably responded in a way that could be taken harshly—if that is how you interpreted it, I apologize. I was merely trying to address the problems that you had created while editing in complete good faith, to improve the article. They were honest mistakes—I view and have always viewed them as such. If you believe I am trying to perpetuate a "tit-for-tat", that is not my intention; I am attempting to resolve a problem that got in the way of productive editing. We have communicated without incident in the past, when I notified you about a potential issue with using first names in an article that you had nominated at GAN. I hope that this does not create a large rift. Best, Kakofonous (talk) 00:28, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: It would be nice to describe the differences between these different drum styles. In the 1920-1930, the default was to do the ♩♫ rhythm on the hit-hat, and then it moved to the ride cymbal during the 1940-1950 in Jump Blues and then Bebop and Hard Bop. Also, I think that they used to play the bass drum on 1 and 3 only, and now it's also on the beats 2 and 4. AlexandreQuessy (talk) 15:33, 9 February 2018 (UTC)
