Important Notes To Wiki Jawakers
I'm very excited about this website, and the way I see it, after a while, and with help, this is gonna be a very dynamite site!!! I've been contributing (I've started Freak Out!), and I need to address some topics.
- When making a link, make sure that it is typed EXACTLY like the page it is going to, or it won't work. (It's Tinseltown Rebellion, and not Tinsel Town Rebellion.)
- When editing songs, make sure the time is not inside the link. The time is not part of the song!
- I'm concerned that different versions of the same song are on different albums, and yet there can be only one link to a song. For example I Ain't Got No Heart. This link will take you to the Freak Out! version of it, yet there are versions of it on Tinseltown Rebellion, FZ:OZ, and Joe's Corsage.
- And what does "Versions" mean on each song page. Would there be links to the song on other albums?

To add to the above...
Which version of an album gets to go where? To my mind Lumpy Gravy has two "tracks" - Part One and Part Two. I think the naming of sections as "tracks" comes from a CD version but not my particular CD version which only has the two tracks.
What does the splitting of the albums into decades mean? Is this the date they were released or recorded or what. I thought I first bought Burnt Weeny Sandwich in 1969 (I could be wrong).
If this is to be some historical/research/reference kind of thing would it make more sense to list the albums alphabetically. Do you organise the albums on your shelf by decade? If I did I would include Joe's Corsage with the sixties stuff, even though it was a recent release, because that is where it belongs.
