Killing Floor (mod) edit

I have added a "{{prod}}" template to the article Killing Floor (mod), suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but I don't believe it satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and I've explained why in the deletion notice (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). Please either work to improve the article if the topic is worthy of inclusion in Wikipedia, or, if you disagree with the notice, discuss the issues at its talk page. Removing the deletion notice will prevent deletion through the proposed deletion process, but the article may still be sent to Articles for Deletion, where it may be deleted if consensus to delete is reached, or if it matches any of the speedy deletion criteria.

A tag has been placed on Youth Symphony (Rachmaninoff), requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done because the article seems to be about a person, group of people, band, club, company, or web content, but it does not indicate how or why the subject is notable, that is, why an article about that subject should be included in Wikipedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not assert notability may be deleted at any time. Please see the guidelines for what is generally accepted as notable, and if you can indicate why the subject of this article is notable, you may contest the tagging. To do this, add {{hangon}} on the top of the page (below the existing db tag) and leave a note on the article's talk page explaining your position. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the article that would confirm its subject's notability under the guidelines.

For guidelines on specific types of articles, you may want to check out our criteria for biographies, for web sites, for bands, or for companies. Feel free to leave a note on my talk page if you have any questions about this. thadius856talk|airports|neutrality 19:57, 9 February 2007 (UTC)Reply

Tchaikovsky Romantic Symphonies Cat edit

Hello. I saw that you recently added the 'Romantic Symphonies' category to each Tchaikovsky Symphony. I don't think this was necessary because the 'Tchaikovsky Symphonies' category is a subcategory of the 'Romantic Symphonies' category. Do you mind if I revert?

No worries. Its a trivial point, but something I like to tidy up from time to time. There is a tricky group of composers that straddle the border between the "Romantic" and "20th Century" eras. Mahler, Sibelius, even Rachmaninoff. They could be split between two eras like Beethoven's symphonies are, but for now they are left out of the era categories.

Rachmaninoff Piano Concerto No. 4 manuscript version edit

You asked about the reference to The Bells at the end of the exposition of the finale of the Fourth Concerto. To be honest, I took that information from this source, the site of which I will hasten to include in the article. When I have a chance, I will listen to my copy of the Sudbin performance and try to give you some more information, but otherwise, I am sorry I could not be of more help.

Please do not remove dead links edit

Please do not remove dead links and the content supported by them, as you did with Carl Nielsen: see WP:DEADREF. As you will see from my subsequent edit, it is often possible to find an archive of the reference. In other cases where a news report was syndicated, searching for the title or obvious keywords will reveal other sources which have used the same news origin. --Mirokado (talk) 03:06, 13 November 2012 (UTC)Reply

Oops, sorry. Thanks for correcting it. I still feel that the opening statement of the article suffers a bit from the weasel-word-like phrase "widely recognized as Denmark's greatest", whether it is substantiated in the source article or not (I see that it is). I understand my view on this may be nonstandard here. AlexChao (talk) 01:00, 16 November 2012 (UTC)Reply
