Terribly sorry but I'm still not clear on the nature of this request. Your best bet is to contact the user on his/her talk page. Unfortunately, Wikinews does not appear have a user registered as IXFD64. Wikinews does not and cannot release contact information on its users and, based on my interpretation, it is a violation of our privacy policy to release any information we might have on any user (other than information they release on theselves) except in exceptional circumstances.

Please unprotect article, would like to fix error.[edit]

From the end of the article:

The album features Shine On You Crazy Diamond, which was recorded as a bald Syd Barrett wandered into the studio.

This is false and misleading. The band wasn't recording when Syd showed up, they were mixing. Also, it implies the band spontaneously composed a tribute upon seeing Syd arrive.

This little nugget of trivia about Pink Floyd is a tantalizing coincidence, but not seriously relevant.

I would like to change it to something like The album features Shine On You Crazy Diamond, with lyrics explicitly about Barrett's rise to fame and subsequent dissolution. Or something. --63.25.0.174 18:23, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for telling Wikinews about this error. I have added the correct trivia. Please also note that only admins can edit protected articles due to vandalism. If you have any more corrections, please list them at WN:AAA. FellowWikiNewsie 19:52, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
