[edit]

This page is blatant self-promotion. It should be taken down. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.0.228.154 (talk) 18:52, 31 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]

@Jonastomalty: I have restored this comment, which you removed by this edit on March 15, 2021 20:59:11 (UTC). Your removal appears to be a violation of WP:TPO. YBG (talk) 14:34, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@24.0.228.154: If you believe this page should be deleted, you may bring this up at articles for deletion. Otherwise, I would encourage you to improve the article by rewriting those things that appear to be self-promotion in a more encyclopedic voice. YBG (talk) 14:40, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@Jonastomalty: Pinging again because the previous attempt did not work. YBG (talk) 14:42, 22 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

88 editors have made edits (34 IPs, 16 bots, 2 tomalty's, and 36 other registered users)

Without comparing the specific contributions to the current text, it seems likely that a fair amount of the existing article was contributed by one of the two users who have selected their user name to match the name of the subject of this article, which is probably the subject of the article or a fan. The other editors have hopefully toned down the puff-piece style. As popular music is not an area of WP that I frequently edit, I am not sure what the generally accepted standards are, but it seems to me that a thorough review by a knowledgeable disinterested editor is called for. I can claim to be disinterested, but I am a far from being knowledgeable. YBG (talk) 22:48, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Spotty references

[edit]

I have added a number of tags - {{failed verification}}, {{citation needed}}, {{unreferenced section}}, and {{refimprove section}} - in hopes of encouraging knowledgeable editors to improve the article. It may be that the {{refimprove}} and {{citation needed}} are redundant; if so, an experienced editor with expertise in this area is welcome to clean up my tagging. The style still needs to be improved as it reads like a puff piece. YBG (talk) 04:09, 25 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Sourcing

[edit]

I have removed these sources as I'm fairly certain that wordpress does not qualify as a WP:RS

There are a number of other recently added sources that seem questionable, but I have left them in for now. YBG (talk) 19:44, 11 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
