Wish I didn't have to start off the article sounding like a super-formal gallery bio, but somebody kept trying to (and did once) delete the article, stating that they didn't meet "notability" requirements to have an article on here. Paul Slocum 02:40, 6 June 2006 (UTC)
Hi, this Ben Jones from Paper Rad, I just re-wrote the article, the wyld-file stuff was a little mixed up, but "big-ups" to Paul Slocum, much love for starting the article, he is "the real deal".... Peace...

Neutrality of this page
Private conversations, gossip, and deletion of page materials do not strike me as achieving the neutrality which wikipedia requires of all of its articles. Are we to take it as gospel that you are friends with Paper Rad, that a site which clearly states it has been hacked is, in fact, not hacked? NEUTRALITY, which is the defining goal of WikiPedia requires that one not present a one-sided viewpoint to benefit one's own interests. I don't know what your motivation in this is-- or why you feel like you can walk all over the clearly defined and established guidelines by which this website operates-- but if you're going to use wikipedia you must comply with its standards and policies. Citing a conversation you may or may not have had is clearly not in adherence to those standards, nor is deleting the entire page. Mysteriousfumanchu 14:38:33, 15 August 2006 (EST)
Forgive me, I'm not an experience wiki-user, but I wanted to add my 2 cents to this discussion as a Paper Rad fan... The "You've been hacked"message on PaperRad.org has been posted for a while and since its appearance, updates, including information about official Paper Rad releases and tours, have been added to the site. While potentially mis-leading, the message is in-line with the satire present through out most of PaperRad's art.
In addition, as a fan of PaperRad's work for several years, it seems obvious to me that the disputed MySpace page, as well as the "Grail Quest" book, are NOT official items. The characters used, the pop-culture items that are referenced, the color scheme, and even the .gif animations do not match the strong aesthetic PaperRad have created.
If the book has been a source of controversy I'm fine with its inclusion in the article, however, I should point out that this article was the first I had heard about it...
It hardly seems fair that a free MySpace page would trump the credibility of the offical website, PaperRad.org, the URL of which still appears on Paper Rad projects (such as the recent Load Records DVD and the Official Book).
Thanks.
I just copy+pasted an academic paper of mine into the article. I wikified it as best as I could, but it still needs alot of work. Feel free to butcher away.

Looks good. I made a few small changes and added a section on Music. All the bands I've listed are "related" to Paper Rad, though I'm not sure they all contain one of the 3 original members... Any clarification would be appreciate...

Not to be a downer (and I like what you've added) but Wikipedia doesn't allow original research. Any information you add to the page regarding style, influences, etc. must be sourced from a 3rd party. 66.9.126.26 23:34, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
This page could use a Paper Rad bibliography to help demonstrate notability. A quick search at Amazon for the term "paper rad" turns up a number of notable publications including Kramers Ergot. I hope to add this at some point but if anyone else wants to do it, or has a more complete bibliography, please go for it! Sjb0926 (talk) 16:10, 17 July 2008 (UTC)

More than one major contributor to this article appears to have a close personal or professional connection to the topic, and thus to have a conflict of interest. Conflict-of-interest editors are strongly discouraged from editing the article directly, but are always welcome to propose changes on the talk page (i.e., here). You can attract the attention of other editors by putting ((request edit)) (exactly so, with the curly parentheses) at the beginning of your request. Requests that are unduly long, or are not supported by independent reliable sources, are unlikely to be accepted.
Please also note that our Terms of Use state that "you must disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation." An editor who contributes as part of his or her paid employment is required to disclose that fact. Justlettersandnumbers (talk) 18:57, 17 April 2019 (UTC)
