Any thoughts on where alternate versions of lyrics should go? Some examples:
- I just did a linked version of the Flickr lyrics. I just put it at the bottom of the existing lyrics – does that seem best?
- In wiki terms, it seems like the demo versions of songs listed under other projects shouldn’t have their own page; they’re not different songs, just different versions. Just wanted to test that before editing the Songs page to link the demos to the existing pages (or should they be redirects?). Anyway – if that’s the desired route, how to handle alternate lyrics like the demo vs. released final verses of Soterios Johnson? Just add the additional verse and note its provenance?
- I’ve been thinking that there might be some use to a non-ellided version of the Re Vos Cerveaux lyrics, which might be more readable by some folks. But clearly that wouldn’t be the canonical version.
BTW – in linking the Flickr lyrics, I found one anomaly. The “Visit to the dentist” link in the credits is wrong; it’s the same URL as for “This party…”. A humorous transposition, to be sure, but does anyone know the real photo? I found nothing in a forum search for “Flickr dentist” and nothing in the original blog entry. Thoughts? BTW: That transposition tickles my funny bone far less than the fact that the “graffiti” photo has been removed.
ETA: Also struggling to discern line between what should be discussed here and what on Talk pages. I guess mostly I’m not sure Talk pages would get read – false concern?
