Untitled

While a Google search turns up plenty of references to his songs and lyrics, very little biographical data shows up, except for stuff that refers to es.wikipedia.org or en.wikipedia.org (circular). The "official" Billy Pontoni site appears to be maintained by his record label/agents, in Spanish. Also, there is both this page, in en.wikipedia.org, and more complete page in es.wikipedia.org, neither of which have standard third party references. He has put out a lot of stuff, apparently, and has a following, but hasn't hit the English language press much. --RavanAsteris (talk) 23:32, 29 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sources

Someone might like to source this:[1][2][3]. Also his official bio:[4] Fences&Windows 23:17, 30 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I didn't know we could use Google translated sources. --RavanAsteris (talk) 04:18, 31 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

You need to treat machine translation with care, but for the majority of European languages the translations are reliable. If wording doesn't make sense, you can look up definitions of individuals words to find better translations or ask a Wikipedia editor who is a native speaker to check the translation. There's no reason to stick to only English language sources. Fences&Windows 19:06, 2 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]
