I have made some copy edits of this page. Among other things I have cleared up some things I found confusing. I don't know anything about the subject, though, so please check to make sure I have not introduced any errors. Molinari 07:48, 15 November 2006 (UTC)Reply

Language

I'm not quite sure why this is in a foreign language when it's on the English wiki... --Samtheboy 08:03, 14 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Moved to Anasol (singer)

Name change

edit

Since 2015 the artist no longer calls herself Anasol, but Sol(h) Escobar, according to this tweet. This article probably needs to be renamed and entirely rewritten, if it's worth keeping. Richard3120 (talk) 05:24, 23 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

AnasolSol EscobarWP:COMMONNAME - the artist has long since left behind her fluffy pop past and her original stage name, and has reinvented herself as a serious alternative music artist. She now works under the name Sol Escobar, as evidenced in numerous reliable publications: [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]. Richard3120 (talk) 19:43, 19 July 2022 (UTC)Reply

I'm not sure a name change would make sense to readers as she ceased to exist in 2005. Surely we need to understand her later career (and name change)... with references! Victuallers (talk) 22:31, 21 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
I'm not sure what you mean by "she ceased to exist"... she's still very much alive. It's standard practice on Wikipedia to change an artist or band name to the one they use now - Lady A is an obvious example, although the majority of their hits and their sales were under the name Lady Antebellum. It makes less sense to me to have separate articles for each of her stage names. Richard3120 (talk) 00:15, 22 July 2022 (UTC)Reply
