Robert Burns

Hi, Arjayay, I just noticed you made an edit on Robert Burns at the request of an IP. I'm just double checking - the link used as the ref goes to the Jean Redpath site where they are selling the CDs. I'm wondering if this is just promotional, especially as Burns night is in a couple of weeks? Sorry if you've already considered this but I thought I'd flag it to you anyway.

Thanks for your message User:Sagaciousphil.
I'm quite happy if you want to remove the link to the sales site, as long as that doesn't give rise to an "unreferenced" problem. Sales sites are always problematic, but this does include some "editorial" information, albeit it is a "primary" source. Redpath has her own article, and there two other internal links, in those two lines, which you may consider adequate? AFAIK Redpath's covering of Burns' songs is the most extensive currently available, so deserves a mention, even if she "only" managed 7 of the 22 volumes with Hovey, plus 3 for the Scots Musical Museum.

Thanks for such a fast response. I'll just leave the ref (for now anyway) - as you say, it's always so difficult with sales sites, I think that's why my re-action wasn't "I'll just remove it". Let's just keep on eye on it for now? Thanks again for your response! SagaciousPhil - Chat 17:40, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

List of guitarists

  • Hello,

Thank you for your corrections on my edits. I will now not put unlinked bands no more. As for the full resume, indeed it is quite long, but isn't important to know what other bands they had played in? 173.206.27.173 (talk) 17:36, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

As every guitarist in the list has their own article, or they would not be in the list, readers can easily look them up. Most guitarists are known for being in one or two bands, which are the ones normally linked to. There is (currently) no rule about how many bands, but a long list serves little purpose - if you know the name of the guitarist or band, you will look up the guitarist or band, and find the name of band or guitarist that way. You are unlikely to search a long list like this.
If you want to re-add the linked acts I will not remove them, but please do not re-add "Abercr9ombie" as that does not appear anywhere in Wikipedia at all, and will confuse the reader. - Arjayay (talk) 17:49, 17 April 2014 (UTC)

Question

May i ask you about the Exo article. why did you delete it? Did i do smt wrong? — Preceding unsigned comment added by AngelinaCaterina (talkcontribs) 15:31, 8 October 2014 (UTC)

Can you take care of the page? If other IP or user adding unsourced genre (for Eric Carmen's original).183.171.175.130 (talk) 22:01, 12 July 2014 (UTC)

Thanks for the heads-up, although the page was already on my watchlist. Genres are always difficult, and AllMusic has changed the way they present them, but they only say "pop" - Arjayay (talk) 15:12, 13 July 2014 (UTC)

Can you keep an eye on two pages? That IP always added unsourced ‘rock’ genre. 115.164.210.237 (talk) 01:45, 13 October 2014 (UTC)

Well - I've been watching both of them, but much nothing is happening - Arjayay (talk) 19:32, 31 October 2014 (UTC)

Motörhead

I put Airbourne in asociated acts because Lemmy Kilmister appears in the videoclip of the song "Runnin' Wild" of Airbourne. --Cristianho19 (talk) 16:34, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Cristianho19 - Such an appearance does not constitute an "associated act" - touring with a band, or even having one member in common, does not constitute an "Associated Act" hence my removals from Airbourne (band) Please see Template:Infobox musical artist#associated acts - Arjayay (talk) 16:38, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Ok. But Black Stone Cherry and Theory of a deadman was toured with Airbourne. --Cristianho19 (talk) 16:41, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Cristianho19 Please re-read - Touring with a band does NOT constitute an "Associated Act" - and there is not a mention of either band in the Airbourne article, let alone a reliable source, in any case Arjayay (talk) 16:46, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Dan Hawkins plays with Airbourne one AC/DC song in a festival, ¿is this considered an asociated act? --Cristianho19 (talk) 16:59, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Cristianho19 No - as stated at Template:Infobox musical artist#associated acts "One-time collaboration for a single, or on a single song" do not count, and if it was only one person it wouldn't even count if he quit one band and joined the other, as "Groups with only one member in common" do not count either. - Arjayay (talk) 17:30, 27 May 2015 (UTC)

Can you keep an eye of the page? 115.164.210.12 (talk) 01:15, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

Put on my watchlist - but if you have concerns you should explain them on the article's talk page - Arjayay (talk) 07:22, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
