"Texas" influence or "Tejas" influence?

[edit]

I'd noticed what initially appeared to be a simple typo - "Tejas". After noticing that an attempted correction was reverted by someone other than the editor who placed the sentence on the page, it makes me wonder what 'Susanforg' originally meant - simply the Spanish spelling of the U.S. state of Texas? If this is the case, one would remember that the English Wikipedia's Manual of Style discourages use of foreign terms unless there is no equivalent term in English, which is not the case here, and use of a Spanish term for an American state could cause confusion.

Or was she referring to the ZZ Top album? The Hasinai people? The U of T social club? It is conceivable that Mr. Johnson has been influenced by any of these, but more info would have to be provided, remembering that this encyclopedia is founded on verifiable information not opinion...

As such, 'Tejas' (which may have even been an unintentional misuse) may need to be corrected...

Sit Down Servant - Not Latin jazz

[edit]

I've seen Sit Down Servant live and they are far from Latin jazz. They are a blues duo mixed with some gospel. I will change that to reflect the accurate information. Mr. C.C.Hey yo!I didn't do it! 17:53, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
