Changes

user:Onel5969, I'm still working on the article, see new changes. Many more to come. PurpleBuffalo (talk) 10:26, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Please put an {{underconstruction}} template at the top of the article then please. That alerts reviewers that it's actively being worked on. And then when you're done, please remember to remove it. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 10:28, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Done. Thank you. PurpleBuffalo (talk) 10:32, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

user:Onel5969, I'd be happy to read your opinion about the article's current condition, after the sources I brought about him, exclusively or almost exclusively. I can add more, but it may be enough for now. Waiting for your feedback. PurpleBuffalo (talk) 12:43, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Okay {PurpleBuffalo}, here's my assessment of the current sourcing: 1-primary; 2-primary and unreliable; 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 9-about the band, not in-depth about him; 8-not a reliable source, but the link is (so you should use the link rather than the FB post, but again, about the band; 10 - Really about the band, but it does have a couple of short paragraphs which focus on him; 11 - This one is good for notability; 12, 13, 14, 15 - brief mention and 13, 14, and 15 are also non-RS; 16 - is a regurgitated press release. The dead giveaway is the inclusion of the specs and price.

So bottom line, the addition of the Music Connection article is great, and the Charleston City Paper is a good addition as well. But in my opinion, you're one in-depth source away from meeting GNG. Hope this helps. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 15:09, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

Wow, thank you for the deep dive. I'll work on it. PurpleBuffalo (talk) 15:21, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

user:Onel5969, I added 1, 2, and especially 3. There are many more interviews and articles, but I think they kinda repeats themselves after a while. Do you think that's enough? PurpleBuffalo (talk) 19:42, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

PurpleBuffalo - dang, my apologies, I meant to mention in my response above for you to remember that interviews are primary sources, and as such, don't count towards notability. See footnote "C" on WP:PRIMARY. This is actually a rule which I personally disagree with to some extent, however, it is a part of WP policy, not even a guideline. Sorry not to have mentioned it before. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 19:54, 28 February 2022 (UTC)

user:Onel5969, Well, I'm done. There are many other sources writing/talking exclusively about him (or about him with context to the band), but putting them in the article would be pushing it towards the absurd (like ABC news reporting about his back problems, or areport about him discussing a certain song and such). I hope it will be enough. PurpleBuffalo (talk) 10:49, 1 March 2022 (UTC)

PurpleBuffalo - looks good. Marked it reviewed. Nice job. Thanks for your steadfastness. Onel5969 ^{TT me} 15:31, 2 March 2022 (UTC)

Thank you for your patience! PurpleBuffalo (talk) 23:38, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
