Come In (Weatherday album)

  • ... that several characters from a webcomic Weatherday wrote appear in their album Come In?
  • Source: [1] "The album as a whole is set up like my webcomic which I sort of based things from the album on along with my own life. The character Agatha is from that comic and same with Oswald and Ines."
  • ALT1: ... that after the original run sold out, vinyl copies of Come In were put up for sale on Discogs for as much as $100? Source: [2] "Last year, U.S. indie label Topshelf, a crucial fourth-wave emo outlet, dropped a double-LP reissue of Come In, and the whole run of 2,000 sold out—if you want a pristine copy, be prepared to pony up $100 on Discogs."
  • ALT2: ... that Come In was recorded on a hands-free microphone attached to a pair of headphones? Source: [3] "I used the headphone mic because I didn’t have a better one and thought I could do without one."
    Album liner notes (viewable on Bandcamp) "Honorable mention to the hands-free mic attached to my headphones which I recorded this album on"
  • ALT3: ... that Come In was inspired by a webcomic that Weatherday wrote? Source: [4] "Mio is a character from a webcomic I made back in 2016-2017 [...] I used Mio on the album cover cause I drew inspiration from the webcomic when I was making the album"
    [5] "The album as a whole is set up like my webcomic which I sort of based things from the album on along with my own life."

  • @LeMeilleurMiel and Tavantius: Not a review, but Rateyourmusic.com is deprecated on WP:UPSD. What makes it reliable?--Launchballer 20:22, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
    • @Launchballer: While the user-generated RYM database is deprecated, the article is citing an interview by a staff member with the creator of the article's subject. Since the interview is only being used to give information about the artist's intentions behind certain parts of the album, I believe WP:ABOUTSELF would apply here. Best, LeMeilleurMiel (talk)
I guess. Full review needed.--Launchballer 23:38, 1 October 2024 (UTC)


General: Article is new enough and long enough
Policy: Article is sourced, neutral, and free of copyright problems
Hook: Hook has been verified by provided inline citation
QPQ: None required.

Overall: First DYK? I wish my first was this good! New enough and long enough. Earwig flags 46%, but the majority of this is two correctly attributed quotes. I personally prefer ALT0 and ALT3; ALT1 is the least interesting of these. ALT2 could work, but I think the fact that they made the webcomic and then drew from it for the album is more interesting.  — Chris Woodrich (talk) 17:59, 19 October 2024 (UTC)

@Crisco 1492: I'm not seeing an ALT4 – which hook did you mean by that? jlwoodwa (talk) 20:08, 27 October 2024 (UTC)
