u2 wikiproject

hey im gary or smithcool, have you seen the old newsletter?? it is here anyway for you to view. i will send you a link to the template and you can begin making the newsletter. the july newsletter has to be out before the end of the month but if it is too much work, just start on next months. the newsletter should be saved on this page: Wikipedia:WikiProject U2/Outreach/newsletterjuly07. every month just change july with the name of the month it is out. only save it here as it will get confusing. i will add it the the archives myself. i will also help make it. Smithcool

ok, we will start next months and we will have alot of time to work on it. i already put the template on the page so just start in your own time and ill help. the page is... add it to your favourites or just remember it and then edit this message to take the link out. we dont want people seeing it before it is done.

If you have any ideas, tasks or concerns to put forward, or if you just have something to say, visit the Talk Page.	From the Editors Welcome to the August edition of the U2 WikiProject Newsletter. As you may have noticed, we are now doing themed newsletters. This one (if you haven't already guessed) is How To Dismantle An Atomic Bomb. Every month the newsletter will have a different theme. There will also be a special edition when the new album is released. Also thanks to Neranei for some of the U2 news. New Members We have two new members since the start of the month! They are Vero444 and MC. We now have 38 members! The Album It was released on November 2004. It was distributed by Island Records and Interscope in the U.S.A. The album was a critical and commercial success. It went to #1 in many countries and sold over 9 million copies worldwide. Bono described the album as "our first rock album. It's taken us twenty years or whatever it is, but this is our first rock album." The album deals with love, war, peace, harmony, and approaching death. The singles released from the album are: Vertigo, All Because of You, Sometimes You Can't Make It On Your Own, City of Blinding Lights and Original of the Species. More info from the album page here. Corrections Last month's newsletter incorrectly stated that there were 34 members. This should've been 36. Also, under the "U2 News" section, line 3, instead of saying most recent single it should've said most recent song (this has since been corrected). The editors sincerely apologize for any misunderstandings this may have caused. The correct version of the July newsletter can be found here. IMPORTANT NOTICE All members of the U2 Wikiproject please note that voting for the next collaboration of the fortnight starts on THE 12TH OF AUGUST. Please visit the collaboration department for more details.

Newsletter

Hello Joel, I just wanted to tell you that I have been inserting the "About the Album" facts into future editions of the newsletter. Smithcool told me to inform you. Please, change/remove them if you see a need to. Cheers, Neranei talk 22:31, 13 August 2007 (UTC)

Thank you for your contributions to Wikipedia. When using certain templates on talk pages, as you did to User talk:70.111.241.250‎, don't forget to substitute with text by adding subst: to the template tag. For example, use {{subst:uw-test1}} instead of {{uw-test1}}. This reduces server load and prevents accidental blanking of the template. Thank you. --Finngall ^talk 02:29, 29 August 2007 (UTC)

It debuted at #1 in 28 countries and sold over 12 million copies worldwide. This album marked the end of U2's experimental phase in the 90's. However, they did not really return to their more traditional rock sound until How to Dismantle An Atomic Bomb. Rolling Stone called it "U2's third masterpiece". The song "Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of" was written by Bono for his late friend, Michael Hutchence. On several occasions the band said that they were "re-applying for the job of the best band in the world" with this album. The singles released from the album are: Beautiful Day, Stuck In A Moment You Can't Get Out Of, Walk On and Elevation. Take a look at the All That You Can't Leave Behind article for more info.
