You can't change what other editors have decided upon ages ago. But with the articles you're changing, the genre of the songs/albums vary as they don't all sound the same, they're different. Seeing as Papa Roach and Alien Ant Farm can be placed in numerous genres, the ones mentioned are to give the reader an idea of what they sound like without having heard any of their material. Adding more genres will seem conflicting and will confuse the reader. If you feel that the genre is truly bothering you talk about it on the articles talk pages. Please to not resort to an edit war. What you are doing now is just pointless as it doesn't change anything. Happy Editing Angel Of Sadness T/C 12:39, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
- Show me an official website of theirs where it says their genre is post-hardcore and then and only then will I question the box. Anyway like I said before: the box is to give the reader an idea of what they sound like. Too many genres will seem conflicting. Also, I case you've forgotten, we're not music critics, we are editors of an on-line encyclopedia. Happy Editing Angel Of Sadness T/C 13:10, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Yes I speak german. But bebo accounts and MySpaces are the exact same thing. If you look at who set up the bebo account, it is actually someone who isn't a member of the band or a person who is in contact with the band in any shape or form. It was set up by a fan so no that is not a good source.Angel Of Sadness T/C 14:56, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
All it says about the genre is: He who likes Nu Metal or something more progressive, is in the right place with Papa Roach. The article is a review, someone else's opinion. Wikipedia is/should be about facts. That's why I said earlier about referencing their official website(Not MySpace or bebo) because then it's straight from the band or at least people who are around the band.

They also have an english bio on the site but it mentions nothing about genre. [1]Angel Of Sadness T/C 15:11, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
- Also it only mentions those genres when descibing the Paramour sessions in the german bio. Angel Of Sadness T/C 15:14, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
- Wonderful, now you can add it as it references the actual papa roach website. But make sure you tell the other editors on the papa roach talkpage by posting a comment with the link. Happy Editing Angel Of Sadness T/C 19:53, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Seeing as I've been here, with an account, for about two months I don't know if it will let me edit either as the block is to stop IP addresses and newly registered users. I wonder how recent is "newly registered"? I'll try it anyway. Send me the link with the genres your want to include. Angel Of Sadness T/C 20:52, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
- Also make sure you leave a comment on the talk page about the changes, just so no-one reverts it as vandalism or something. Angel Of Sadness T/C 20:55, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
- Both would be fantastic. I'll leave the article as it currently is for a day or so, just to make sure that people have had a chance to read the comment on the talk page. I don't see how they wouldn't accept it as it's referenced with quotes from the band themselves on the official website . If I make the changes now then tommorrow morning I could have endless angry spam messages from angry papa roach fans on my talk page. The latest I will make the changes is Monday. If I don't make the changes then please send me a reminder. Angel Of Sadness T/C 21:04, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
Like leave a message on my talk page which you have been doing all along. Angel Of Sadness T/C 21:05, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
- Ahh I see now why you use all caps for that. I would be careful using them though as they are considered to be sending a message in an angry way which is probably why some people have been quite hostile towards you. If you want emphasis use ''' on the bits you want to emphasize like if you want to type :Typing the bits to emphasize you put in: '''Typing the bits to emphasize''' Angel Of Sadness T/C 21:12, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
- Well my german isn't the best as I haven't used it in about two months and I've started learning german four years ago. When I read german I can understand it but I'm not too good at speaking/writing it. Anyway your english is much better than my german. I can read your messages perfectly.Angel Of Sadness T/C 21:22, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
