Verb Tense

[edit]

Are we sure the article should be in past tense? The band is still active - albeit once a year - as of 2022. TheXug (talk) 17:21, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think it's an interesting question, considering the members state that the band only exists one day a year. With that definition, the article should only be present tense on October 1st, and past tense every other day. Mbdfar (talk) 17:26, 6 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I feel the "officially only a band for one day a year" may also be a problem in terms of the "years active" part. If they do only officially exist for one day a year, then the years should be listed like "2018, 2019, 2021, 2022". But if the band continues for like 20 more years that is going to get to be very long.
I think present tense makes the most sense even though it may be technically wrong. BeatlesNathaniel (talk) 18:16, 30 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

2021-2023?

[edit]

I realized that there is one title stating 2021-2022 and the next one being 2023-present, wouldn't it be smarter to just put it as 2021-2023 and putting Across the Road under that one? Dalto17 (talk) 08:31, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I split it up as the section was getting too long. It leaves room for expansion on this album and future ones. Mbdfar (talk) 15:32, 28 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
