[edit]OK DannyMusicExpert, if it most certainly does matter, then what do you have to say about Dysfunction and Break The Cycle? Only a few songs are considered to be nu metal on those albums and yet the genre is listed for them. Your point is making no sense.
- My point makes perfect sense. Reliable media response categorizes those two records as nu metal. Where's this "only a few songs" observation coming from? Yourself? That doesn't hold any water or value to Wikipedia, see our policy on no original research. I mean, personally, I agree with you on Break the Cycle, totally not with your stance on Dysfunction, but it's not like that matters. Personal observations are absolutely forbidden as evidence in music-related articles, and in most other places as well. If there aren't references there, check the article body to see if they've been embedded there, such is common for more-complete articles. If not, you are free to remove any you like that are unreferenced, as long as you don't replace them with other unreferenced ones.
- If a source only highlights a few, let's say three for example, songs as part of one genre (ex. nu metal), you can't call the whole album that genre in the infobox. That's not how it works.
- Now, if you find a source saying such things sourcing a genre that supports only a few songs, by all means remove it. But only if it's clear that's the case. I've seen many an editor claim that without it actually being the case.
- Are we clear? If not, shoot me another message, I'll answer whatever you like.
- P.S. You should consult someone else's talk page talk page instead of self-messaging. I was checking this page in the first place to see if you had been warned for edit warring, and found this by chance.

Hello, I'm 4TheWynne. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Bloodstone & Diamonds, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. 4TheWynne (talk • contribs) 13:53, 28 October 2019 (UTC)
