Most of the time I'll message you on your talk. In less than a handful of cases, I will reply here. Due to a slight work(over)load (on Wiki, and irl), I may not instantly reply.
The single was released the day after Premium members of Paul's site got to listen to "My Valentine". Tuesday December 20, 2011..It was released to the public that day...and sources before the announcing of "Kisses on the Bottom" said that Paul is planning a rock/pop album for late 2012 so why are you erasing all my work? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75getback (talk • contribs) 20:09, 3 January 2012 (UTC)
Its all over the internet though. He released the song to the public the following day...and I do have a source for his other album coming out

The single is set for an official release January 10. It was given to a few people for promotional use only on January 3. http://www.amazon.com/Wings/dp/B006MQDYX6/ref=sr_1_1?s=music&ie=UTF8&qid=1325692408&sr=1-1 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75getback (talk • contribs) 15:53, 4 January 2012 (UTC)

Hi. When you recently edited Starr Struck: Best of Ringo Starr, Vol. 2, you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Hey Baby (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Hi Yeepsi. Yeah, what a coincidence − and less than a day apart! As you noticed, I've added a talk on the other contributor's page, and will probably add something on both SMSYB article pages. Out of interest, instead of adding the word "(song)" to the title to create a song article, how do you go about creating a new article when the song is already automatically being redirected to an album, d'you know? (I mean, how do you get the song title appearing in red when you search, but without going through Article Wizard and then putting the piece forward to ArticlesForCreation, which I've found can take forever.)

Hello JG66, I've seen the album artwork section for ATMP, and I have a ref which might be of some help: http://www.allthingsmustpass.com/album/index.html (It's flash, so you'll need to click on the "A"). yeepsi (Time for a chat?) 13:35, 31 March 2012 (UTC)

Hi Yeepsi. I put the following query to HelpDesk but reply didn't really solve the issue (or I just can't work it out). Can you help maybe?
I recently submitted an article on the George Harrison song "The Lord Loves the One (That Loves the Lord)" − here. Problem is, the two definite articles (forgetting title's first word) are capitalised on the page, yet in track listing for the Living in the Material World album, these words are lower case (the) − which means the link from the album page doesn't work, of course. I tried changing the 'DEFAULT' tag in the article to show 'the's instead of 'The's, but that doesn't seem to have worked. Would welcome some advice on this, because there are other articles that link to this song as well. Many thanks, JG66 (talk) 13:38, 7 April 2012 (UTC)

Hi there Yeepsi. Bit intrigued by the tag added to this article. I followed the link to the relevant info page, but I can't really see how those points apply. Want to make sure article's as best as it can be obviously, and I respect your opinion − but it does seem a fairly general lead-in that touches on issues explored in detail in the main text. What were you thinking was the issue, can I ask? Cheers, JG66 (talk) 13:37, 23 April 2012 (UTC)

He pops up from time to time; he was editing from a university IP, but has either finished school or is on holiday and is now in another part of the state.

Please do not revert any postings without giving a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary as you did with That's Why God Made the Radio (The Beach Boys song). Please review the source linking information about this song that jeopardizes your latest revert, making it an unjustified revert. Please read the 4th paragraph of said source, clearly stating "Jim previously worked with Hungate in Nashville on a song written with producer Joe Thomas and Ides bandmate Larry Millas. The song "That's Why God Made Radio" was coincidentally the first song Joe ever sang with Jim Peterik."

Hey Yeepsi. Yeah, I'd put a request on The Concert for BD talk page about wanting to de-italicise article title and mentioned the need for a reassessment, so it seems another contrib went and did both. Excellent. But that would be great if you could take a look at the two new articles; also, I've revisited "Isn't It a Pity" in the hope that might be worthy of a B. (More I think about it, those important GH songs like "Pity", "Bangla Desh", "Sue Me" and "Dark Horse" really deserve B articles, so I'm hoping to spend a bit of time on improving them. Maybe "Pity"'s there now, I don't know ...) Yes, LITMW on hold for a while, I think. There are those two unreferenced sentences in Reception that need looking at, and I'd always planned to add more to that section anyway. I'd like to think The Concert for Bangladesh is ready to roll. PS: I keep looking at the Dark Horse talk page − GA!! Wowee! Cheers, JG66 (talk) 12:48, 29 June 2012 (UTC)

Hi Yeepsi. Got rather depressed looking at the progress (hardly) in a recent Beatles straw poll so I decided to do something I actually like doing instead, and have gone ahead and put Living in the Material World up for GA nomination again. At least, I think I have ... not entirely sure I copied the GAN text into the right place on the Talk page. Would be great if you could check for me.

Hi,
Recently you used Reflinks to clean up some refs on Atom Heart Mother (suite). Unfortunately, there's a bug in Reflinks which creates spurious author names for Youtube pages. It's discussed here. I doubt the bug can be fixed soon; so in the meantime it might be a good idea to keep an eye out for this, and maybe put in the right author names by hand..? bobrayner (talk) 13:11, 24 July 2012 (UTC)

Hi there Yeepsi. After our discussions on what needed doing on ATMP, you'll notice I went ahead and put Concert for BD (album) up for GA nom − to get that one out the way before starting work on the 1970 big opus. In GoP's review, the only issue is the cover images. I'm wondering if you can help: my new mouse won't let me right-click and save images as jpg, can sort this out easy enough but there's only 1 day to fix the image issue (or GAN will fail!) Any chance you could upload a smaller 1971/72 cover image for me? Found one here (halfway down the page), or maybe you've got a better site in mind − as long as the image is quite small. Hope you can help. PS: Thanks for the B on "This Guitar"! Cheers, JG66 (talk) 21:01, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
Hi Yeepsi, could you please expand on your view of the mid-sentence compromise? The purpose is to critically evaluate the arguments of both positions, so "support per X" doesn't really give us a lot to work with. Thanks — Feezo (send a signal | watch the sky) 01:42, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
Hi Yeepsi. I took a look at The Madcap Laughs and ended up making substantial changes to the article (I'm not sure if that's what you were expecting or not?). As comments in the edit history show, there was a huge amount of repetition early in the article, particularly the point about Barrett leaving Pink Floyd and hooking up with manager Peter Jenner; not only that, but the prose was in a pretty poor state throughout. You'll see I've ended up restructuring the article slightly as well, which seemed necessary once the repetition had been removed. For instance, there is now no Background section at all (because what little was provided before is actually more relevant to Recording) − but there really does need to be a Background section, I'd say. Loads of questions came to my mind as I read the article:
All these issues aren't explored at all − and I was pretty stunned to see you'd put it up for GA nom already, to be honest. It needs a lot more research, in my opinion. Sorry, but I'd be surprised if it was even worth a B right now; it's a C with way, way too much detail on recording history (and I'm someone who loves to read about recording history, especially in London studios in late '60s/early '70s), yet nothing on context/background, song content, professional reviews/reception.
Another thing I wondered about: Hipgnosis and a photographer (but not Mick Rock) are listed under personnel − might be an idea to add mention of these two under Cover Art; they're credits for the reissue artwork, not the original, would that be right? Also, just want to make sure I haven't misunderstood things with the changes I've made:
Anyway, I hope this all helps rather than discouraging you. Cheers, JG66 (talk) 12:08, 2 August 2012 (UTC)
I notice this album, unlike several of the Floyd's, hasn't been GA nominated yet, and I've started making steps towards doing so. The first thing I want to do is get hold of a copy of Nicholas Schaffner's "A Saucerful Of Secrets" book, which does actually go into the background of making the album to more depth than just about anything else I've seen (most other coverage seems to just be the band dismissing it as a waste of time). I used to have a copy years ago, so I can remember certain quotes from it, but my copy disintegrated (I think it had an accident with a glass of wine) and got thrown out. Have you got a copy? --Ritchie333 (talk) 14:03, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
The mediators have come up with a new idea, which seems good. It's under "Episode IV: A New Poll", and "Your thoughts".--andreasegde (talk) 10:10, 8 August 2012 (UTC)

Just a quick note, I've been trying to find a free image of what was the Mothers Club, Birmingham (where some of Ummagumma was recorded) - frustratingly there are two free images here and here of High Street, Erdington, that are either side of where the club was, with it just being out of shot on both, while this photo, being taken from a distance, does have the right hand side of the club just in shot.

Stop your lying about trade marks
LAUREN LEE GAUCK, v. HOOMAN KARAMIAN et al, p. 10 (“... The TPRPA “does not prohibit all unauthorized uses of another's name or likeness.” Apple Corps., 843 F. Supp. at 347.(emphasis in original). Rather, the statute is “narrowly drawn,” id., “proscribing only the unauthorized use of another’s name or likeness in advertising.” Id. at 347 n.2. The limited Case scope of uses prohibited by the statute was explained in Apple Corps. In a Beatles look-alike performance case, the court granted the plaintiff’s motion for partial summary judgment, finding that, while the defendants’ advertisements for their performances did violate the TPRPA, the performances themselves did not. Id. at 347-49. Even though the defendants engaged in the performances as a commercial endeavor, the court reasoned that defendants’ use of the Beatles’ personas during the performances and the Beatles logo on the group’s bass drum did not violate the TPRPA because the statute only forbids use of name or likeness for the purpose of “advertising” or “soliciting” purchases of goods or services.

Hi. I've started a GA review of Love Me Do which I've now placed on hold. I think there are significant issues with the article which I suspect will take a while to address. However, as long as reasonable progress is being made toward sorting out the issues I would be willing to keep the GAN open for a month or more. I would suggest it's worth contacting other contributors to help out - the more the merrier. If you would prefer to work on the article at a more leisurely pace, let me know on the GAN or my talkpage, and we can close the GAN early. SilkTork ✔Tea time 09:43, 10 October 2012 (UTC)

So: Is the abbreviation for "United States" really US and not U.S.? I have to say, honestly, it looks wrong to me. Of course, I do often see the United Kingdom referred to as the UK, but I don't see the same when the United States of America is abbreviated. Is there some kind of stylistic guide about this?
It's actually my fault this question has even come up. It was originally "American FM radio" before I edited the article. I have had some Canadians remind me that they, too, are located in America, and they don't like us co-opting the whole term "American". I think they'd like to see the term "U.S. Americans" take off, but I don't see that happening.
Well, in case you couldn't tell, this question has pretty much been just an excuse to come say Hi, after running into your name in the History of all the Pink Floyd articles I've contributed to. It's practically a fan letter. You do great work! You can respond on my Talk page or yours, it doesn't matter to me.
Sincerely,

Hey there Yeepsi! I noticed you rolled back a few of the dating edits I made tonight (silly me, I was on my phone and forgot to log in) and I was wondering if the US artist = US dating formatting rule is iron clad here on Wikipedia. I made the change to UK dating as the added commas of the US format created more clutter in the infoboxes. I know it sounds petty, but when you've got a band like the Beach Boys where we can (and do) input multiple recording dates, I believe every saved character adds to the readability.

Hi. Thank you for your recent edits. Wikipedia appreciates your help. We noticed though that when you edited Discovery (Electric Light Orchestra album), you added a link pointing to the disambiguation page Balance of Power (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are almost always unintended, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of "Did you mean..." article titles. Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.

Thanks for your revert of the IP 199 at Imagine song. You likely already know this, but you could activate twinkle, and then you would be able to rollback those types of edits in one, versus manually and individually. Alternately, you could apply for rollbacker privs, which I am sure would be granted to you. Cheers! ~ GabeMc (talk|contribs) 23:18, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

Hi again Yeepsi. All that talk about Apple albums from the late '60s/early '70s – I couldn't help myself, just had to come up with a Doris Troy album article! Would be great if you could assess it, if you've got the time? Big thanks, JG66 (talk) 09:25, 8 November 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for creating Weight of the World (Ringo Starr song), Yeepsi!
Wikipedia editor Nkansahrexford just reviewed your page, and wrote this note for you:
perhaps you can add 1 or two images of the singer and the album art. But, btw, nice article
To reply, leave a comment on Nkansahrexford's talk page.

Please stop your changes and discuss any proposals first, preferably at the Pink Floyd wikiproject page. I will revert all your changes until you do this. Parrot of Doom 19:00, 23 November 2012 (UTC)
Hi there, Yeepsi, how are you? I notice you've contributed quite a bit to the Traveling Wilburys band article over the last year or so. Well, I've started a discussion on the talk page about which order the band members should be listed in – I'm sure it's an issue that has been raised in the past, but I'd welcome your input if you have time.

Yeepsi, are you aware that, among your many edits to this article, you edited once for the apparent sole purpose of de-Wikifying a song title? If that's the term I'm looking for. This article makes reference to another Pink Floyd song, "The Gold It's in the..." and you edited OUT the link to that song's article. I mean, all you did was make it not a wiki link anymore. It's not like you were neatening up the paragraph by removing needless verbiage. The words are all still there. All you did was make things somewhat less convenient. It's quite beyond me why you'd want to do that. The same paragraph also refers to "The Nile Song", "Young Lust", and two album titles, but you didn't de-Wikify those. Just the one song title. I'm hoping you'll say you were just sleepy or something and made a mistake. Mind you, I'm not saying the article for "The Gold It's in the..." is any good. It's kind of terrible, actually. But pretending it doesn't exist wouldn't help. The more people that see the article, the more likely one of them will improve it. Needless to say, I'm putting the double brackets back around the song title.
So, that's the part I know I'm right about. This other thing, not so much, but here goes: So, people keep coming along wanting to add descriptive terms like "Hard rock" or "Heavy Metal music" to the "Genre" category. And you just keep reverting them with very brief Edit Summaries like "Source?" I think more is required. I mean, we're talking about labels. You know critics don't often write things like "This is a Heavy Metal song, while that is Psychedelic Rock", and such. If they wrote helpful things like that all the time, they'd all be out of their jobs! Insisting on a source to use a label for one song is a little unfair, I think. I mean, I would be opposed to a long list of labels for one song, but I don't see the harm in adding "Hard Rock" to the song's info box without a source. It doesn't seem one should need a source for something that obvious. Look at "The Nile Song": We write about the actual music, the six key changes, without citing the sheet music -- which was my fault, and I'm going to go fix that right now, but I mean, it's been up there at least four years without. We've been happy to take each other's words for that, but we're slapping down descriptive labels within a few days? I think there should be some discussion on it. Has there already been one? Maybe you could point me towards it.
Respectfully,
--Ben Culture (talk) 10:35, 10 December 2012 (UTC)

I noticed your great work at The Piper at the Gates of Dawn and saw that you used Discogs as a source with these edits. FYI, since this article is a good article candidate, that source will likely be challenged, as it has user-generated content (Wikipedia:WikiProject_Albums/Sources#Sources_to_avoid). To make their information and citations more legitimate, you could use Template:Cite album-notes and basically use the description at the Discogs pages (label, catalogue/publisherid, format, etc.) Dan56 (talk) 02:18, 14 December 2012 (UTC)
You did a good work in the article, but I think that some things should be added:
Recently I asked about a huge amount of David Bowie songs which were not notable and unsourced to be redirected. I have no objections so I redirected them and if anything people were happy because it really cleaned up and cut down Bowie's info to a Wikipedia standard. So I tried the same will John Lennon's solo discography which was almost as bad and I came across trouble with another user undoing my work. he tried to tell me that articles such as "Tight A$", "Only People" and "Old Dirt Road" somehow proved notability. I didn't want to go through the whole AfD since I felt they all were obvious candidates for immediate redirect, but now it seems I might have to. My point is when I do nominate these 3 songs are well about about half a dozen others, please support my argument, since I saw you immediately added categories to the songs after I redirected, so I assume you agree that I had done right. Thank you. --Mrmoustache14 (talk) 04:49, 17 December 2012 (UTC)
Hello. This is to let you know that there is currently a discussion at User talk:Mr. Stradivarius#RfC closure questions about Newyorkbrad's closure of the RfC about whether to use upper-case "The" or lowercase "the" in mid-sentence in articles about (t/T)he Beatles. You are receiving this message because you were involved in the mediation case that led up to the RfC. Some editors have expressed dissatisfaction with the caveat in Newyorkbrad's close that "[t]he suggestion that editors should try to structure sentences to avoid unnecessary mid-sentence use of "the Beatles" remains a valid one", and the discussion is focused on how that caveat is affecting the editing decisions in Beatles-related articles. There is also the opportunity to discuss other aspects of the close should the need arise. Please see the points at the top of the discussion thread and leave a comment if you think it is appropriate. Best regards — Mr. Stradivarius (have a chat) 13:41, 19 December 2012 (UTC)
I have in effect re-posted what you arbitrarily deleted from the Paul McCartney 'talk' page.
I am after information on Paul McCartney not covered by the article. As I see it it is deficient – albeit on a point probably of little interest to a number of people outside Australia... but I am interested. I noted that he gave a reason for not appearing in concert c.2002. I'm not saying he's justified or not.
I am not here to debate the issue of why he so infrequently tours Australia.
I wish to understand if there is any stated reason.
If there is no known reason, you could simply have replied that there is none.
Maybe he has no reason, perhaps it just never occurs to him. That itself would suffice –as I noted I’m not here to debate the reason, just to find out ‘why?’
