|
As a Wikipedian, I come across articles that certain people devoted to a certain subject would write about. Then out of pure curiousity, I did a search and I came up with this:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_Soundtracks
I'd like to know if anyone of you folks out there are responsible for any of the contributions to the article. I'm sure there are other details, historical and technical that could be added. For those of you unfamiliar to Wikipedia, it's the "encyclopedia that anyone can edit." Anyone can come up off the Information Superhighway and scribble stuff down.
You can see in the article that JERIC is in red letters. That means someone wants JERIC to have his own article. Cool, huh?

Some information I would have added if I was responsible:- The member community has grown to more than 15000.
- Members can request tracks from over 2500 albums.
- The site is supported by it's members.

I just added for the information. Thanks for the input! 
Now I checked the article history and I see a user named Charmingsaff. Could this be Saffron?

Ah, mystery solved. Thanks Cal!

Whoa, nice!
Maybe we'll find an article about JERIC there one day... 
What about someone translating this article into german for the german version of Wikipedia? |

*nods at you* I think you just volunteered. 
Here's where one can start: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hauptseite/
Enjoy... (I'd do it myself, but I'd end up using some internet language translator. Those are hilarious, but hardly accurate.)

So well, here it is!
The new german wikipedia-article about SST!
It was a great load of work for me, not because of the interpreting, but rather because I've never written a wikipedia-article before...  *uff*
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Streaming_Soundtracks
PS: I wouldn't be mad, if somebody could add the SST-logo. I tried and it didn't work out!
*edit* It has been shortened by other wikipedia-users, perhaps it was too long for them. But the main info remained.

Bpe, I've seen your article in german version of Wikipedia.
I don't know german but even though it looks great!
Thanks for your work.
BTW: Now we need someone to translate your version of this article into english part of Wikipedia

For a first timer, you did a heck of a lot better than I did. Seriously, it's a lot longer than the English one! Amazing. I'll see what I can do about the logo.
(I think molossus is volunteering to do a Polish version... )

Immortality, Armand. Take it, it's yours!
I know, that's not from Troy - that's from a Toronto International Film Festival press conference, and Brad is telling you "this is how big you should make it."
Oh, and I've added a Deutsch link to the English page. It grows...

In fact I was thinking about it, Lake 
I will give it a try, but I need a little more time than Bpe.
