Re: Hello + Moogfest

[edit]

Hello, G.
I will be pleased to help you. I'll give it a look and I'll let you know. Cheers and happy editing! (And, welcome to Wikipedia, of course!!!) –pjoef (talkcontribs) 19:05, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Update

Well, I added a "couple" of internal links, some templates (including an infobox for music festivals) categories, coordinates and more.... Wow, electronic music but also indie/prog/kraut-rock, trance, electronica, experimental music... and many-many great artists and bands! What a festival... I would like to be there next year. The article needs more contents especially for the history and venues sections. The lineup sections are not in an "encyclopedic" format and may be better presented using prose. The internal links (or wikilinks or wlinks; e.g.: [[North Carolina]] that produces North Carolina) are of some help, but we can be more "verbose". Not all readers are familiar with the subject, and although the majority is comfortable and familiar with it, we must always take into account all others. I know this is a work in progress and Wikipedia is also a work in progress ... so please do not take this as a rebuke. Here are some links that maybe could help:

I've got to go (to eat something) now, and I'm not sure if I'll be active during this weekend, but I've bookmarked the page and I'll work on it... I am at your disposal. So, have a great weekend... and all the best. –pjoef (talkcontribs) 21:10, 4 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Update #2 (2011-11-12)

Hi G.!
I hope you liked what I did, and that you are fine, of course.
There are still a couple of things to do there, but it is good enough for being nominated at Wikipedia:Did you know. Take a look when you have a moment.
I would like to finish the job on the 2006–2008 line-ups sections (in the same way I did for 2004 and 2005). Then, I would like to complete the 2010–2011 line-ups sections by using a format similar to those in Glastonbury Festival 2010 and/or Glastonbury Festival line-ups.
The following is a great tool for finding free (or NOT free) resources:

The first is for "New York" the second for "Asheville". I noticed that there are some free images (of 2010 or 2011) on Flickr. Maybe, it would be great to have the official logo of the festival, but I have not found a free version to use.
I've also replaced all the REF, inline, TAGs with {{Sfn}}. I think it is less "invasive" both within the text content of the article (especially for the source/editing view) and the Notes (section). And, I placed all the citation templates ({{Cite web}}, {{Cite book}}, {{Cite journal}}, {{Cite news}} ...) within the References section. I really like this method, but it is not a mandatory, of course. So, if you have problem with it, write me a note on my talk page. To know more about shortened footnotes in Wikipedia, please see WP:CITESHORT. (For inline citations, I used {{Sfn}} instead of <ref>...</ref>, and I've also tagged all the citation templates within the References section by using {{SfnRef}} into the "ref" field: |ref={{SfnRef|tag name|yyyy}}. To use or reuse a source (listed in the References section) is very simple: {{Sfn|tag name|yyyy}}. You can also add the page number: {{Sfn|tag name|yyyy|p=x}}; or, for multiple pages: {{Sfn|tag name|yyyy|pp=1, 7, 55–61, 108}} and also chapters, sections and more.
If you have any problems, comments, requests or whatever, please message me.
That's all for now... and have a great weekend. –pjoef (talkcontribs) 12:21, 12 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Update #3 (2011-11-13)

I've created two versions for the lineup of the Moogfest 2011: [[User:Pjoef/Sandbox/Arts#1st_type|type #1]] and [[User:Pjoef/Sandbox/Arts#2nd_type|type #2]]. The first version uses a navbox, while the second one uses wikitables. Each one has its pros and its cons. Personally I prefer the first type. Please take a look and let me know which you prefer, so I can go on with it. Best. –pjoef (talkcontribs) 17:06, 13 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind that above post (update #3). I decided to use the first type, which is based on Glastonbury_Festival_2010#Line_up+{{Glastonbury Festival 2010}}. It uses {{Navbox with collapsible groups}} and HTML tables inside. It is certainly less intrusive than the 2nd type (it was a series of wikitable). I created the pages/templates: Template:Moogfest 2011 and Template:Moogfest 2011, all the related documentations, and also the Category:Moogfest. To edit those templates, just click on the e placed on the top left corner of each template. If you need to contact me, please leave me a message on my talk page. And, if you are interested in nominating Moogfest at Wikipedia:Did you know, please take a look at it when you have a moment. All the best. –pjoef (talkcontribs) 12:18, 17 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Moogfest overall is a very good article, but it just needs a couple of little things. Two sections were tagged very appropriately, as the one section does need to be expanded and "Location" is just completely empty. But I must say, you have done an amazing job so early into you Wikipedia career, and I highly commend you for that. Warm regards and happy editing, Belugaboycup of tea? 19:26, 6 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
