Fahckin' KAHNTS

i explained why earlier in the thread.

this explains it

i've added it again

hey, the addition of the link has been reverted a couple of times. a link to dubstepforum isn't allowed on the article under wikipedia's external links policy.
we've been through this before - just ask seckle (who's also done some work on the article).

sorry lol i didnt see that ... why not include dsf its by far the most popular dubstep site on the web ??

I know you dont make the rules mate. But not having a link to DSF on the dubstep wiki is the stupidest thing I have ever heard.

and an admin has reverted it again. i'd recommend not re-adding, or he'll blacklist it, which will mean the link is permabanned from the whole of wikipedia.
like i said, not the first time we've been through this: http://www.dubstepforum.com/who-pimped- ... ia%20kaini

why is the DSF link considered spam and the others arent?

because they all, in one way or other demonstrate notability and provide additional information that supports the stuff in the article.
i wouldn't dispute that this is probably the biggest dubstep forum on the net, but you'll notice none of the other links are forums. the wikipedia external links policy isn't very keen on the addition of forums of any sort.

as funny as ED is, most of em are from 4chan, so the answer to that is: no life

as regards the production bible, that's more of a how-to, and would be better suited to wikibooks: http://www.wikibooks.org/

Shame, but now i see both sides of the story.

Still think it at least deserves a mention.

Man, I'm gonna let you finish but... Timbaland was the greatest dub bass artist ever!
