A while back the Happy Hardcore page on wikipedia was full of information but some idiot has delated all the 90s stuff making out Hardcore only came about in the late 90s?  Also someone delated the whole Freeform Hardcore page on wikipedia thus leaving a red link...
I hate it when people cut stuff out of articles, there is no need for it at all!

I have made a few sensible edits! Don't see why some people delete half of an article just because it dosn't have many references or what ever. It annoys me as Alot of cockwads are trying to make out Donk/Scouse House or whatever it is called is a revival of Bouncy Techno! There is nothing similar about them before!

You should be able to retreave it from the history page AFAIK.

It was brought to my attention that my radio station had been listed as an external link in wiki but when I went to check it out, it was the wrong link & was spelled the old way we used to spell it.
How could I go about getting that changed?? & is there anyone on here that could make those changes for me as it doesn't seem to let me edit it.
@ Smoogie, if people thing Donk/Scouse House is a revival of Bouncey Techno then they are seriously mistaken!
Just because they used a common Hard House bassline & called it something else, doesn't mean that its a new form of Dance music.

wikipedia is probably the last place you should go for accurate information. anybody can write whatever they want about anything and can make it as biased as they want to. u want real info do some harder searches or ask someone who personally lived thru whatever it is ur tryin 2 find.
i personally don't care to kno too much about the history of the beginnin of hardcore/ happy hardcore because everybody has said somethin different about its origins. all i need to know is that it got started somewhere in the UK or europe and that thankfully it did get started as i would probably have nothing decent to listen to right now if it didn't exist

you need to be critical about what you read, I personally don't take anything but what I know is true
btw, how can someone live through for example a nuclear explosion.. lived through.....

Being a man of great hardcore knowledge, I might just rewrite most of the them at some point in the near future. :)
Pisses me off though. :/

lol! you should ask 95 the same question only i think he was like 5 at that time or something
and Rosin i don't mean like you not only have to physically live thru the experience. not only do i mean to live thru the experience, but you can also get much better and accurate information at the time of event rather than years down the line by reading. history gets distorted after time. sometimes it gets more defined and precise, but other times some facts are lost or forgotten and kinda goes down a different path

Okay, fine, I don't because it's obviously impossible to listen to music from before your time. My bad for being so stupid as to think otherwise.

Listening to old tunes of that time doesn't automatically tell you what got the whole scene started. You may be able to know what the first hardcore track is, but i don't think you'll be able to find out its influences, the 1st hardcore rave, first band of hardcore djs, the 1st hardcore scene, etc all that type of stuff. if somehow you took a course in hardcore history then u will kno stuff. i think that is what SPOOK was tryin 2 get at i don't think he was bein an ass

I wrote a big piece on hardcore in and around 2000, how Q-records in Japan bought 70% of the worlds (happy) hardcore music from alphamagic before they went bust and all this info, they deleted it all saying I couldn't reference a source, but no one else had written about it so that was the issue, I then found a source of info in Japanese about it all and they said it's not creditable because it's in Japanese.
They also removed entire sections with good info and replace it with fragments of crap and unimportant information. They nuked all external links, which is semi understandable because it was getting ridiculous. I figure I will have to write an article on happyhardcore.com about what I want put onto wikipedia, wait a few months and then write it on wikipedia so I have a source.
