License tagging for File:Fields junip.jpg
Thanks for uploading
File:Fields junip.jpg. You don't seem to have indicated the license status of the image. Wikipedia uses a set of
image copyright tags to indicate this information; to add a tag to the image, select the appropriate tag from
this list, click on
this link, then click "Edit this page" and add the tag to the image's description. If there doesn't seem to be a suitable tag, the image is probably not appropriate for use on Wikipedia.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, you may contest the deletion by adding {{hang on}} to the top of
the page that has been nominated for deletion (just below the existing speedy deletion, or "db", tag; if no such tag exists, then the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate and adding a hang-on tag is unnecessary), coupled with adding a note on the talk page explaining your position, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines.

Post-dubstep
Sorry it took so long to reply. Three months is a little excessive...
But yeah. Electronic music subgenres are defined in part by their BPM. From what I've heard (and I am by no means an expert), the speed the music is played at directly influences the style of play. There are many many many other factors but taking something and slowing it down or speeding it up is a very typical beginning to a new style of music. Thrash metal / heavy metal / sludge metal is a good example.
In reply to your indie music analogy... Dubstep and post-dubstep are subgenres of electronic music. Like Noah and the Whales can be more accurately described as Indie Folk or something similar, some bands may fit into post-dubstep better than any other genre or subgenre.

Feed Me's Big Adventure
It's just an unreferenced track list, no indication of why the release has any notability separate from that of the artist (sales, chart position etc. There is nothing to stop you posting a proper article Jimfbleak - talk to me?14:46, 28 October 2011 (UTC)reply
Hi, you can sign your comments automatically using four tildes ~~~~. Please add your messages to the bottom of the talk page, or they may be overlooked. Just to expand on the above, it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the
notability guidelines for music. Just giving a track list looks as if the intention is to
promotel rather than inform. I've recreated as a redirect to his page. Jimfbleak - talk to me?06:41, 20 March 2012 (UTC)reply
There is nothing to stop you recreating with references and an explanation of why the recording meets the notabilty criteria(although him saying it's a major event is hardly a reliable independent source Jimfbleak - talk to me?07:27, 20 March 2012 (UTC)reply
Like I said, if you have independent reviews, and can add something other than an unreferenced tracklist, that would help, although ideally we need something like a chart position or sales figures to show that that it is truly notable. Whether he is notable is another issue. He might be, but his page basically saws he's released a few recordings, nothing to indicate why he meets the notability criteris as defined above Jimfbleak - talk to me?13:31, 20 March 2012 (UTC)reply

I'm not angry, but this sort of thing gets played out quite often on Wikipedia and it starts to get old. It's a disservice to our readers to ever give this sort of thing more than a fleeting mention, whether it's this, the moon landings, 9/11, Sandy Hook, or whatever. That's not to say we never mention them, but it's got to be proportionate. --

There is no consensus on the talk page to include that material, and even if there was it still would not be included because

I didn't blindly revert. I reviewed the edit, got as far as the words "mind control," had a good laugh, and then reverted. This isn't a case of finding some good material to salvage, it is so far in lunatic territory that it would be hilarious if it were not for the article disruption. Feel free to pick up the discussion on the article talk page, but here is a hint: you might want to try to get at least a single other person to agree with you before claiming consensus.

I am trying to remain cordial & agree in hindsight with the revert you made regarding the Charleston Church Shooting.

Don't "try" to remain cordial; just do it because it is required. Calling a group of sources reliable when they include Youtube links destroys your credibility.

4 times. He never entered into discussion and maintains that the settlement between the Committee to Save Cooper Union and New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman is not relevant even though it mandates that methods be investigated to force tuition free by the year 2018 at the latest. He has gone beyond violating the three revert rule. Thank you Neil for listening.

Thanks for pinging me thus attracting my attention to your behaviour.
This user's unblock request has been reviewed by an
administrator, who declined the request. Other administrators may also review this block, but should not override the decision without good reason (see the
blocking policy).
User:Beyond My Ken has made edits against policy. I have done nothing wrong can you please explain what is considered "disruptive" about my editing? I edited once in support of
User:jm3. Other than that I have not touched the main article, while BMK maintains that "diverseeducation" should be the only sourced material, whereas wsj, nyt and other more reliable sources should not be added. Can you please block Beyond My Ken since he violated the 3 revert rule as I've outlined above? Thanks

I did not realize that outing was against wikipedia policy and will not do so again on wikipedia. I was very frustrated by Beyond My Ken's incongruous edit warring with myself and other users, but I should not have violated policy just to out him.
Decline reason:
While the outing alone is reason for a block, that's by far not the only problem. In particular, I find your complaints of BMK "deleting relevant discussions" utterly hypocritical when BMK even
re-added comments they removed while reverting your repeated removal of discussions. See also

BMK did re-add his diff section question, but he deleted my
request for more current administrators point of view inside the talk page. Again, I have not edited any main articles other than reverting
BMK's edits to reflect
User:jm3's superior sourced edits. The edit that bmk deleted represents particularly poor judgement, given that bmk himself previously said "the viewpoint of CU admin is somewhat under-reported", and I was trying to add the viewpoints of all current ranking CU Admin.. I have no plans of deleting anything, especially given the fact that I failed to properly archive when I last attempted to do so.

I posted the following to
Talk:Cooper_Union_financial_crisis_and_tuition_protestshere. (()) is an implied addition that I should have made more overt. However,
User:Beyond My Ken was very out of line to delete these relevant points from the talk page, especially considering he and I are both TW users and not admins. I was also trying to foster a real discussion with the admin who was expressing interest in the article.
BMK has agreed up until very recently that the article, before
User:jm3 made edits that "bmk" wants hidden, that the 3 paragraphs of current admin and a former trustee provide enough balance so I've deleted the section below.
User:Beyond My Ken feels that the Attorney General's settlement of the lawsuit ((As Described by wsj & nyt)) should not be included. Obviously I disagree. Welcoming opinions from
Tapered,

Eflatmajor7th as well as other users is of course welcome. Is the deficit still a crisis? Acting President Bill Mea's POV should certainly be added as well as Acting Provost Richard Lincer and the newly promoted Chris Chamberlain.

Claiming someone is dead without providing an ironclad source is a blatant violation of
the biographies of living persons policy. A person of such prominence is unlikely to have died unnoticed by major news outlets, and there is no such obituary or notice.

Claiming that Robert Bernhard, a dead man, is alive, is being done. I have no part in (nor seen any proof) that

How does a bank behave when someone dies? And, for that matter, what connection does Bernhard have with those banks, since Bloomberg does not list him as a director of either? It is practically impossible to prove a negative, such as that Bernhard is not dead, and, in any case, we don't require proof that someone is living, we require proof that someone had died. Until we have that proof - which given Bernhard's life, status and positions, would be practically impossible to hide - we must assume that he is alive. Further, have you considered the possibility that this 88+ year-old man is sick, or incapacitated in some way, and that's why you can't find evidence of activity on his part?
