Mohan Sithara

Today i got a call from newspaper that some one added the death date of Mohan Sithara, living music composer from Kerala, India. When i checked the page found you added that info as mistake. I corrected & Please care it in future. Happy Editing. --Manojk (talk) 06:04, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

@Manojk, I didn't add this information, but fixed the infobox filling with already existing info. This can be seen at the link you posted. Solidest (talk) 13:06, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

Music genre hierarchy

Hello! I got what you mean about the genre hierarchy topic after 6 months ☠️ Actually, i'm not using any site for make the genre orders except the Wikipedia articles. I categorized the pop genres by visited the articles and see what the articles say. If the article says "rock" then i put it on other genres section, like Britpop. I don't use any untusted sites. I'm monitoring the reliable sites on Wikipedia:Reliable sources/Perennial sources

So sorry for the late response -GogoLion (talk) 20:20, 25 May 2022 (UTC)

@GogoLion Hi, as far as I remember, then it was about how Allmusic builds their hierarchy. They don't have a direct division into Pop and Rock, and the authors of the site themselves stated on their forum that they divide genres into subcategories according to "we choose from what we have" principle. And they even made corrections after I pointed out obvious mistakes on the forums. So I would question their hierarchy. And if the subgenres are stated directly in the description (prose) on Allmusic or any other reliable sources, that's another level of information and that can be used on wikipedia.
