"Fluctuating" content
[edit]I can't believe that there is so much fluctuation in the article's content size (from half a kilobyte to 20 and then back to a half), without any discussion taking place, and without edit-summaries explaining actions (the situation here is worse even than the one with the Indian hip hop article). If I had to describe the situation I'd put it this way: while there is much to write about the subject, the lack of appropriate refererences has turned the article into (warning: an emotionally charged comment follows) a miserable soapbox, then into a spamming groundbattle, and, in the end, into a pathetic stub. Anyway... I have started a tiny list of Greek hip hop and low bap artists here (with names from the "classic underground" scene). In the beginning of the list I refer the readers to this article i.o.t. find more (referenced, nonPOV, and spam-free) info about these names (I hope some day soon they *will* be able to find it here). Unfortunately, I can't currently find published material from the music press in order to do an ambitious expansion of the article myself, but I intend to keep looking for it. Friendly appeal to Thedaydreamer1: since you may be (as I see it) the only Wikipedian actually caring about a fair representation of the Greek hip hop (or at least low bap), would you mind taking some time to create some badly missing articles? An article on Babylona would be a good start. If noone else is willing to give some time on it, I might! (and that's a serious threat =) Omnipedian (talk) 13:57, 26 December 2008 (UTC)
