Contested deletion edit

This article should not be speedy deleted as being recently created, having no relevant page history and duplicating an existing English Wikipedia topic, because... I am trying to change the name from "Suntaraporn" to "The Suntaraporn band" to make it more appealing and better. And the quote "Suntaraporn" can have two meanings that mean either The band leader Eua Sunthornsanan, who goes by his alias name "Suntaraporn," or The Suntaraporn band. --Ilikecarrotrich (talk) 08:34, 26 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

I terribly apologize for what I did 3 months ago, I had no idea how to change the title name and so I thought cut-&-paste move is a way to do this. I also am really sorry for replying such late, I was really busy in real life and couldn't reply much, I also lost motivation in writing too. Ilikecarrotrich (talk) 12:49, 2 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

Article title edit

The article history includes a cut-&-paste move from Suntaraporn to The Suntaraporn Band. Ilikecarrotrich explained the reasoning at User talk:Ilikecarrotrich#Your contributed article, The Suntaraporn band, which is reproduced below. --Paul_012 (talk) 06:07, 20 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

"Suntaraporn" has two meanings that mean either The band leader Eua Sunthornsanan, who goes by his alias name "Suntaraporn," or The Suntaraporn band. I was trying to change it to The Suntaraporn band because the article is about the band, not the band leader. Ilikecarrotrich (talk) 08:36, 26 March 2023 (UTC)

Adding information edit

I bought Suntaraporn's 30 years anniversary book not too long ago, It was written by Mrs. Atiporn Senawongs (อติพร เสนะวงศ์) who was only 18 at that time so she used Sunthornsanan, her old surname. The book is named สุนทราภรณ์ ระลึก ๓๐ ปีของวงดนตรีสุนทราภรณ์ (Suntaraporn, 30 years memorial of The Suntaraporn band.)


In around the back of the book, Miss Atiporn wrote a biographical information of Suntaraporn that explains about Suntaraporn band's history in English. And I wonder if this information can be used for the information of the article. If not, please tell me. Thank you. Ilikecarrotrich (talk) 12:59, 2 July 2023 (UTC)Reply

The book is probably self-published, so it would be okay to use as a primary source covering basic facts about the band, but should be avoided for exceptional claims or those pertaining to third parties, per WP:ABOUTSELF. As with most published sources, the content would be protected by copyright so the material may not be directly copied into Wikipedia, if that's what you're asking. --Paul_012 (talk) 02:24, 3 July 2023 (UTC)Reply
