→2017 tour on main page?
Yeah, go ahead and make a remix glossary. Just be sure that there are links out of the page and find a way to make links into it.--[[User:Leo3375|leo3375]] 11:10, 2 June 2009 (PDT)
==Songs vs. Halos==
dear sheepy, i wanted to ask your opinion of this before i post it at Leo. i think several of the songs that have both a (song) and a (halo) page ought to be combined. i'm not referring to any of the numbered halos, but rather the promo stuff, like Wish and Into The Void. i really don't see a reason why we should have a specific page for [[Wish (halo)]] when it's only got two songs, no cover art, and can only be bought on eBay for extortionate (is that a word?) prices. it's also misleading to call it a halo, though i'm sure everyone here realized this when the decision was made to call all the releases halos. can't we simply compile all the promo releases and either make a page listing all the promos and their info (i'm fine taking the collecting job) or simply leaving the mentions of the promos and their catalog numbers under the specific songs (i.e. by including the Wish promo and catalog number in the appearance list on its song page and mentioning it in the write-up for the No Bad Words mix)? let me know what you think about this admittedly massive job i'm suggesting. i really think it would help keep the place streamlined. - [[User:Seasonsinthesky|Seasonsinthesky]] 09:51, 9 June 2009 (PDT)
== Delete/Report Button ==
I would suggest it to Tony. Manwhile, you can delete the content of the spammers' entry and mark it as spam.--[[User:Leo3375|leo3375]] 10:19, 28 June 2009 (PDT)
==List of common musical themes==
do you think it'd be a stupid idea to create a new page with a list of common themes? i.e. "Song X and Song Y share a common melody." it could also be a Category, though it'd be much less specific that way. - [[User:Seasonsinthesky|Seasonsinthesky]] 09:06, 4 July 2009 (PDT)
==List of films that use NIN songs==
since my last list idea kinda fell through, here's another: a list of the films whose scores and soundtracks feature NIN. somebody posted a nice list of them on nin.com, so i could just drop it in and link around. the list could be linked in using some kind of methodology similar to how on Wikipedia you can do (see 2009 in music) next to a year of release to access the category, so each song that is featured on a soundtrack can have a link like "(see list of NIN soundtrack contributions)" next to the Appearances listings - or a better idea if you've got one in that fantastic brain of yours ;) - [[User:Seasonsinthesky|Seasonsinthesky]] 06:30, 16 August 2009 (PDT)
==Adding BPMs to song pages==
here's my next ambitious idea: to include the BPM rate of every song (studio released, anyway) on its page (and subsequently any differing BPMs for remixes, etc.) and to make the BPM rate a link to the List of BPM Rates page. y/y? help me out on it? - [[User:Seasonsinthesky|seasonsinthesky]] 14:25, 9 February 2010 (PST)
We need Add Violence BPMs added plz. [[User:Ryan|Ryan]] ([[User talk:Ryan|talk]]) 06:37, 22 July 2017 (PDT)
== Full state names on Tour pages ==
I'm actually all for it because some of the visitors who aren't in the US and/or Canada might not know what MA or SC means. Hell, when I create Tour Date pages for US/Canadian dates I write out the entire state/province name in the first sentence. But that's just me.--[[User:Leo3375|leo3375]] 15:48, 20 March 2010 (PDT)
== Tour dates succession box ==
How would you go about doing this? I'm willing to help, if you need? [[User:Knotrice|Knotrice]] 04:54, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
:The coding itself is fairly easy, the issue would be designing it (it can't be bulky, but has to give enough detail - I was thinking previous date, next date, link to tour page and link to previous and next tour dates if possible), putting it into EVERY tour page (there are a lot) and sorting through the fact we're missing many of the early shows. If you're any good with coding, try and design one (use your user page for now so it doesn't get in the way), or I'll stop being lazy and do a draft one [[User:Sheepdean|sheepdean]] [[User_talk:Sheepdean|Try to speak as clearly as you can]] 05:02, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
== Bot ==
How difficult would it be to get a bot to place the tour dates in? I'm fine with doing them myself, but the internet filter keeps coming into place because of the title of the tour I am editing (I won't say the name, because then I won't be able to see this page), and I'm worried I might slip up. EDIT: It might just be better if someone goes through and makes sure I haven't stuffed up somewhere. [[User:Knotrice|Knotrice]] 06:27, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
:Bots aren't really my territory, never coded one for a wiki before. I will have time next week to do these, been fairly busy irl of late, so leave it for now and I can finish up if you need - and I am keeping an eye on all edits, don't worry [[User:Sheepdean|sheepdean]] [[User_talk:Sheepdean|Try to speak as clearly as you can]] 06:37, 1 June 2010 (PDT)
==Spammer==
wanna get rid of [[User:Luisa]]? spamtimes r mega and random - [[User:Seasonsinthesky|seasonsinthesky]] 05:55, 16 July 2010 (PDT)
==Remixes category/ies==
just saw your post on the "[[At The Heart Of It All]]" talk page — should we make a category for Aphex Twin contributions or something? how about a category for each era (PHM, Broken, TDS, post-TDS, TF, WT, YZ, and so on)? at least that way it would be included with other songs but not lumped in with songs actually made by NIN. - [[User:Seasonsinthesky|seasonsinthesky]] 11:59, 27 January 2011 (PST)
== 2017 tour on main page? ==
Hey, can we please link the current 2017 tour on the main page in its respective spot? I also mentioned to piggy that it looks like the thumbnail for Patriots Day didn't resize properly or something and doesn't look quite clear on the main page, if we can also repair that? Cheers. [[User:Ryan|Ryan]] ([[User talk:Ryan|talk]]) 06:44, 22 July 2017 (PDT)
:The patriots day one I tried with but jpeg artifacting with an image that size full of lines? Just ugh. Tempted to try the vinyl version. And we gonna do I Can't Seem To Wake Up 2017 or the not yet made NIN 2017?

:::cool beans, maybe shouldda just done png but I am lazy dammit [[User:Sheepdean|sheepdean]] [[User_talk:Sheepdean|Try to speak as clearly as you can]] 16:06, 23 July 2017 (PDT)
:I'm still kinda bannned, so could you please quote this post: http://www.echoingthesound.org/community/threads/4560-branches-bones-extended-lyrics?p=365808#post365808 and ask if there are any others they've noticed? I added in the unsung lines to the Branches/Bones page, but the poster said that "these stood out in particular," making me think there are others. In addition, could you also ask slavetothewage what the line (or lines) in "The Lovers" is that's sung but NOT printed? Trying to make these pages as comprehensive as possible. Ta!
