Talk:Peking Duk

News article

Expect a bit of traffic to this page based on this article - perhaps semi-protect if it gets too bad: http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/dec/03/peking-duk-fan-infiltrates-backstage-by-fooling-security-guard-with-wikipedia-edit -- Chuq (talk) 07:02, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

Edit in question is here for people interested in seeing it. Can't believe anyone would fall for that...

Thanks for the post here. I was looking through the edit history to find the edit in question but was having difficulty. Should a little section about this story be added to the article? Iṣṭa Devatā (talk) 16:18, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

About 28 articles at this time. The Guardian, Billboard, Gizmodo, The Independent, etc. --Super Goku V (talk) 17:24, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

Added a bit, with a primary source and BBC + guardian as supporting sources. Not sure whether people will bother to vandalise this page much now, but fear that at every gig for every band in the near future, we'll see copycat chancers tampering with articles!

Well, security for the band knows this trick by now so... Lots42 (talk) 16:09, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

• It is clear that the band was not duped and knew exactly what had happened, they just thought it was so creative that they invited him backstage. Yet another reminder the vast majority of the world's population thinks that Wikipedia is magical.--Milowent • ^hasspoken 21:59, 4 December 2015 (UTC)

Background

articles re: Hydes MC stuff: http://www.scenemagazine.com.au/music/electronic/peking-duk-feels-like http://themusic.com.au/interviews/all/2013/10/16/peking-duk-reuben-styles-adam-hyde/20512/ I don't know how the wording should be changed, I get the feeling that it wasn't quite stellar. 115.186.198.66 (talk) 06:53, 17 January 2017 (UTC) me again 115.186.198.66 (talk) 06:54, 17 January 2017 (UTC)

Drummer

Who is the drummer in the YouTube recordings of the Like A Version performances? She doesn't seem to be credited on WP, ABC, YT, etc. Is she "just" provided by Triple-J and therefore doesn't get a mention? She does a great job, so I'm wondering why the high-profile guest vocalists get named (ft Julia Stone, Dean Brady) but not the drummer. 49.186.99.246 (talk) 06:34, 12 October 2024 (UTC)

Please protect this page for vandalism.

Recently, people have been editing the Wikipedia page of this band, trying to pose themselves as a family member. Please protect this page so that no vandalism happens in the future. BigDJ183 (talk) 14:56, 2 June 2026 (UTC)

It was caused by a YouTube video. WP:RFPP is the page designed for requesting protections. Tbhotch^™ (CC BY-SA 4.0) 17:43, 2 June 2026 (UTC)

The page was protected yesterday. - The Bushranger _{One ping only} 03:17, 3 June 2026 (UTC)

I don't think it was BigDJ183 (talk) 04:27, 3 June 2026 (UTC)

It was, you can check in the log. Qwerty123M (talk) 04:30, 3 June 2026 (UTC)

User:BigDJ183; Qwerty123M is right. I applied for talk page protection at WP:RFPP, and the page was protected after that. It was actually yesterday when the page got protected. Elison Pokhrel ^TALK 05:59, 3 June 2026 (UTC)

Can We Please list David Spargo as a Legend? ~2026-49007-58 (talk) 08:22, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

No. Wikipedia takes a neutral point of view on all article content. I doubt readers would know who that is. Qwerty123M (talk) 08:25, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

It can happen with every article about celebrities, VIP rooms or similar topic.

Expired temporary autoconfirmed level protection

I removed the page notice but someone needs to remove the edit notice, I dont know how. Noxajatsocad (talk) 19:42, 12 June 2026 (UTC)

Disregard this, I originally misread the temp notice as June instead of July. I reverted my edits regarding this, and as you can see above I struck my thread and message. Sorry. Noxajatsocad (talk) 02:13, 13 June 2026 (UTC)
