well the first single, friend like that, sound as pop/punk as it gets listen to it here wwwe.hawknelsonismyfriend.com Jcpizzadude (talk) 15:42, 21 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

well i know tht and yeah i've heard it, but where would u get alternative rock from? plus we've only heard one song. I vote on keeping both Pop punk and christian punk, since its nice and poppy and singable yet somewhat punky and about christ, and having a friend in him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.38.65.47 (talk) 21:41, 24 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I also call "You have what I need" punk and it is most likely christian i've only heard it once though. THRICE 34 —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thrice34 (talk • contribs) 20:10, 3 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

The CD has already leaked. IDK if that kind of stuff should be put on the page, but it was posted on Sunday, February 3, 2008. Belak51 (talk) 17:33, 10 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

well where can I go to hear it then? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thrice34 (talk • contribs) 23:08, 15 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Cover Art

Anyone other than me notice the cover art looks like Fosters Home for imaginary friends art? Not exactly, like a paradoy Mew Mitsuki (talk) 20:37, 25 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move

The following discussion is an archived discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was moved back to Hawk Nelson Is My Friend Aervanath (talk) 16:21, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've placed a request at WP:RM for this article to be moved back over the redirect to the most accurate title: "Hawk Nelson Is My Friend". Rationale/discussion here. Jamie^☆S93 01:23, 25 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Previous discussion moved from here:

Hi Redxx, I noticed that you recently moved the Hawk Nelson album article to "Hawk Nelson... Is My Friend!". I understand that is the album's more stylized title (on the cover), but I tend to disagree with your article move. Album articles are titled based on what the record label itself (on their website) and major reliable sources officially state the title as. "Hawk Nelson Is My Friend" is clearly the more official title, as numerous reliable sources confirm: BEC Recordings, Billboard, allmusic, Rolling Stone, Jesus Freak Hideout, Christian Music Today, etc. In this case, I think it'd be best to move the article back to its original title (which would require a WP:RM request), and have the lead line be something like this:

Hawk Nelson Is My Friend, sometimes stylized as Hawk Nelson... Is My Friend!, is the third studio album from Christian rock band Hawk Nelson.

That's oftentimes how leads are written in these kinds of cases, so it mentions the real and more generic title, as well as the "stylized" one. That also helps with the common search term not always having to be a redirect to another title. Best, Jamie^☆S93 20:08, 23 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Ok I always take the album name on the album cover to be correct. I am an admin on LyricWiki.org and that is how we decide things. It is usually definitive. But if you want to do as suggested that is fine by me. Thanks for putting me straight on the procedures round here. Regards _♫ Яєd_xx_♪♫♪_♫♪^Talk 21:55, 23 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No problem, happy to explain things! :) I'll get the article moved back now, cheers, Jamie^☆S93 22:13, 24 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Tentative oppose. WP:ALBUM doesn't cover this. WP:NAME says "do not replicate stylized typography in logos and album art" but is an ellipsis a really a stylization? And "official" names (which Wikipedia has no obligation to follow) are all over the place on titles. Generally, to "take the album name on the album cover to be correct" isn't such a bad idea. — AjaxSmack 00:05, 27 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Here the dots likely represent not omitted text (as in ellipsis) but an emphatic pronunciation with a dramatic hesitation. WP:MOSTM. Anthony Appleyard (talk) 09:22, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Am I able to delete this notification: "This article needs additional citations for verification."? It seems to me it has sufficient amount of citation... Srsrox (talk) 15:29, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yes and yes. I deleted the page tag and tagged the one section that needed additional references. --Walter Görlitz (talk) 15:45, 19 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
