Greg Fasolino, not going to revert your changes, but was curious about your comment regarding "notably". No comparison was made of the bands to each other, but in reference to his career. When you see 2 years with the Bags, 4 years with the Gun Club, and (concurrently), 7-10 years with 45 Grave (depending on whether you measure recording years, or overall years before his death), yeah, I'd suggest 45 Grave does qualify as "Most notably". Just curious what your thoughts were.162.119.128.141 (talk) 17:15, 8 March 2016 (UTC)
- "Notable" is not synonymous with "longevity." On Wikipedia, we are expressly asked not to contribute original research or personal opinion; writing must be neutral and statements that judge something in relation to another must be either direct quotes from sources, or backed up by sources. This is not the case here. It is entirely your personal opinion that his performances with 45 Grave were as a whole more notable than those with other bands. If you're going to write on Wikipedia, please learn to keep the tone and information as neutral as possible and avoid making editorial comments. If you can find a source that says he was most notable as a member of 45 Grave, great! Add it in and reference it, and you'll have no issue from me at all.
- Also please remember, to save work for others, to follow punctuation, spelling and style conventions---genre names are not capitalized (punk rock, not Punk Rock), first names are not used after the first reference (it is always "Graves" not "Rob"), notable persons should be Wikilinked on first reference ( Courtney Love not Courtney Love, Hole not Hole), song titles must be in double quotes ("Pretty on the Inside"), etc.---and to write in a encyclopedic not conversational tone, etc. No offense intended or taken.
