Revision as of 13:58, 6 December 2017

Neutral point of view

If "commentary" style is to be removed from this article, would it also then be appropriate to remove "groundbreaking" from the reference to Nucleus, and "innovative" from the reference to Adiemus? In my view, the tone of this article is slightly hagiographic, and I was both trying to balance this with an acknowledgement that Jenkins work has often polarized opinion, which I think is worth noting this in the article, as well as include some of the documented negative associations his period of sole leadership had on the notable band Soft Machine, to balance the list of prizes and awards recorded above. 88.108.57.66 (talk) 09:55, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've reinserted some material, with a changed tone, which is all referenced to published quotations. This is not a personal attack on Dr Jenkins, who I've never even heard speak, but I do think that there is place for at least a statement of the acknowedged controversy about the effect Dr Jenkins composing style and period of leadership had on Soft Machine in an encyclopedic work. Happy to discuss this. I've also queried the two adjectives above. (88.108.57.66 (talk) 10:58, 31 January 2009 (UTC))[reply]

The two adjectives have been removed (innovative is a WP:PEACOCK term). The article needs neutral point of view, and the section describing Jenkins' role in Soft Machine still seems to be rather critical. I'm not an expert on Karl Jenkins, but would appreciate any comments from other users about the article and whether it is fair and balanced.--♦IanMacM♦ (talk to me) 13:16, 31 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Many thanks for your consideration of this. Soft Machine fans may well have numerous, varied views on this issue. (88.108.57.66 (talk) 14:49, 31 January 2009 (UTC))[reply]

Cyberbot II has detected that page contains external links that have either been globally or locally blacklisted. Links tend to be blacklisted because they have a history of being spammed, or are highly innappropriate for Wikipedia. This, however, doesn't necessarily mean it's spam, or not a good link. If the link is a good link, you may wish to request whitelisting by going to the request page for whitelisting. If you feel the link being caught by the blacklist is a false positive, or no longer needed on the blacklist, you may request the regex be removed or altered at the blacklist request page. If the link is blacklisted globally and you feel the above applies you may request to whitelist it using the before mentioned request page, or request it's removal, or alteration, at the request page on meta. When requesting whitelisting, be sure to supply the link to be whitelisted and wrap the link in nowiki tags. The whitelisting process can take its time so once a request has been filled out, you may set the invisible parameter on the tag to true. Please be aware that the bot will replace removed tags, and will remove misplaced tags regularly.

Below is a list of links that were found on the main page:

  • http://admusicdb.com/
    Triggered by \badmusicdb\.com\b on the local blacklist
  • http://admusicdb.com/ads/tag/karl-jenkins.html
    Triggered by \badmusicdb\.com\b on the local blacklist

If you would like me to provide more information on the talk page, contact User:Cyberpower678 and ask him to program me with more info.

 Resolved This issue has been resolved, and I have therefore removed the tag, if not already done. No further action is necessary.—cyberbot II NotifyOnline 08:27, 21 April 2014 (UTC)[reply]

What is the 'Red F' award?

Karl Jenkins has a remarkable biography, studded with brilliant awards, recognition, and a BCE. But what is this 'Red F' award from ClassicFM? After considerable trying, I cannot find any reference to such an award with Google, apart from Jenkins own website biography and a great many bios that quote word-for-word from that website. No one else within Google's scope has mentioned any such an award, nor is there a list of its awardees on the ClassicFM.com website. As far as I can tell, it simply does not exist, or is so inconsequential that even ClassicFM does not see fit to mention it. Perhaps this reference to a 'Red F' award in Jenkins' own bio is some kind of personal joke? I am baffled, and I would like to hear some other opinions. If no one knows of it, then this award is clearly so non-notable that it should be removed immediately from Wikipedia's bio of Jenkins. —Aetheling (talk) 20:20, 6 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]
