== Re: RATM ==

Yes indeed; I have been away for a little bit. My contributing is still sporadic at best. I seem to have lost a few zines in the last move, but there was a great repository of RATM reviews and interviews somewhere on the web, I should find that again. We also seem to have another contributor now! I hope I wasn't too imperious in my reply to them, I just tapped it out late at night (for me).

Tip of the moment...
Create links faster using tricks

1. Magic pipe trick: Synonymous article titles may be clarified with terms in parentheses, like this: [[Self (psychology)]]. But when you want to include such a link in the body of an article, this would look rather awkward. So all you have to do is use the "magic pipe trick", like this: [[Self (psychology)|]]. Notice the pipe ("|") character stuck in there at the end of the link? That makes the link look like this: Self, without having to type the name of the link after the pipe! This trick also works with namespaces, so that [[Wikipedia:Tip of the day|]] (again notice the pipe character) displays like this: Tip of the day.

2. Plural trick: While editing, you will often need to make a link to a plural. For example, suppose you wanted to link "Fred Foo was famous for his study of puddles" to puddle; you could link it like so: [[puddle|puddles]]. However, you can save time by instead writing [[puddle]]s. This also works for adjectives ([[Japan]]ese), verbs ([[dance]]d), and any other suffixes or prefixes, like [[bring]]ing. It does not, however, work for some irregular verbs. For example, [[try]]ied does not work; you have to use [[try|tried]]. Nor does it work with apostrophes needed outside the wikilink like: [[J. R. R. Tolkien]]'s.

I have noticed you are an active editor in LostAlone article, unfortunately I know almost nothing of it, but, I have noticed someone has created I'm_a_UFO_in_This_City page and I feel they tried to redirect this article to LostAlone, but could not format correctly. If you think that article should be redirected to LostAlone, please correct the formatting. Thanks. --Tito Dutta (Send me a message) 19:43, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Sleze and The Dehumanizers

Hey buddy,

I was wondering if you would care to give me your opinion about a course of action that I've been thinking as of late and that is to take out the parts about Sleze in the Alice N' Chains article and start a separate one for that version of the band. One of the reasons I'm wondering this is that there have been articles for two early versions of The Cure for some time now, Easy Cure and Malice. My main source of info on Sleze is the book Grunge is Dead. I'll see what else I can find as well.

Another reason why I've been thinking about doing an article for Sleze is that one of their guitarists, Zoli Semenate (Ed Semenate), was in that punk rock outfit The Dehumanizers, who are best known for writing the song "Kill Lou Guzzo". I'm giving serious thought to starting articles for The Dehumanizers and Zoli as well due to the fact that he is credited for co-wrting "Kill Lou Guzzo" and his connection to Layne.

Basically, I want to know if you think I have enough to go on after reviewing the other articles for The Cure. Allmusic has info on The Dehumanizers. I also found this:
