Coheed and Cambria

There's a rumor going around saying he is going to be Coheed and Cambria's new drummer... Can anyone confirm this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.195.163.207 (talk) 20:48, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

He is playing on all of their new album, but only courtesy of Capitol Records. Chris Pennie is their new drummer. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.157.114.53 (talk) 19:18, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Married?

I read in a recent article that Taylor got married. Is this true? And can someone find out what her name is so we can add it to this Wiki article? Skittlesjc 20:08, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

Yes Taylor is married, her name is Alison and they just had a baby boy. 76.171.176.228 03:50, 26 August 2007 (UTC)

Is a smoker?

Was browsin' through and saw "*Is a smoker" was removed with a nice little comment. I didn't put it there, but I don't see a reason why it can't be included in the trivia section. I'm going to be bold and undo that revision. §tepshep • ¡Talk to me! 03:07, 1 March 2008 (UTC)

What about his side project Chevy Metal?

He is also involved in another band called Chevy Metal. [1] 67.162.108.111 03:45, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

I removed the bit about his spare time. This is an attempt to spam the wikipedia by mentioning two other people so their names will appear in a google search. Please put fact in not other people's name who have nothing to do with the article. The fact that Chevy Metal is a band is a fact but who is in it or what they do is spammy. 4.143.235.85 (talk) 16:28, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

ranks as a drummer?

On which list does he ranks and drummer 93? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.89.108.51 (talk) 17:15, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Death place

Please do not add "Bogotá, Colombia" as death place until it is confirmed and verified by a secondary reliable source, adding it now is inferring something not said in sources.  Spy-cicle💥  ^Talk? 04:37, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

He was found dead in a hotel room located in the north area of Bogotá, they were going to close the Estereo Picnic festival that is taking place this weekend. Skcin7 (talk) 05:06, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

There are many reliable references showing he died in Bogota, Colombia. Not sure how that is controversial? ContentEditman (talk) 11:56, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

The film clipof his body being brought out of the hotel and into a waiting ambulance is pretty conclusive, I think. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:00, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Overdose (2)

There is no source to back up his death was an overdose 2001:8A0:7AEF:600:785A:3268:1F1D:9B3C (talk) 03:26, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Drugs were found in his hotel room:[2] 156.57.0.55 (talk) 20:28, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Did he die of a heart attack?

Lot's of people are dropping dead from heart attacks and heart problems. --2001:8003:DDAA:5A00:B83A:35E7:1A7E:1BF1 (talk) 07:28, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

No-one knows, they haven't made an official announcement on cause of death yet. The article can't say anything about it until a formal announcement has been made. Often, the cause of death is never made public. --Viennese Waltz 07:31, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

He's also been clean for twenty years, so this talk of "teh ohverdohze" has my fibbingulator buzzing... Winston von Ripplechip (talk) 17:49, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Yes, the article currently just says: "Hawkins overdosed on heroin in August 2001, which left him in a coma for two weeks." If that's when he quit drugs for good, that should be added, with some source(s)? Martinevans123 (talk) 17:57, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

It's already here. Personal life, second paragraph:" "I was partying a lot. I wasn't a junkie per se, but I was partying. There was a year where the partying just got a little too heavy. Thank God on some level this guy gave me the wrong line with the wrong thing one night and I woke up going, 'What the fuck happened?' That was a real changing point for me."

Do you think he just woke up and said "Let's try it again; maybe it won't stick this time."? Winston von Ripplechip (talk) 18:08, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

So, "That was a real changing point for me" is all that's needed? Sounds a bit cryptic to me. I've no idea what he said when he woke up. Maybe he explicitly told someone in an interview, in the past 20 years. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:11, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

We do not know his cause of death. We should not speculate on it. – Muboshgu (talk) 18:21, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

I agree, we should not speculate. But does sound very much like a heart attack. Regardless of the cause of death, I think a source with a more explicit statement that he gave up drugs, if such exists, would be an improvement. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:56, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

But that's speculation! Let's not do that! – Muboshgu (talk) 22:01, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

OK, it's a deal. Instead let's find a source that actually says "he's also been clean for twenty years". Martinevans123 (talk) 22:41, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

This just in from NBC News:

"Colombian authorities on Saturday said Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins had 10 substances in his system when he was found dead in Bogotá on Friday. The office of the Attorney General of Colombia tweeted the update Saturday, saying a preliminary toxicology test found substances including opioids, benzodiazepines, tricyclic antidepressants, and THC, the psychoactive compound in marijuana." Carlstak (talk) 23:37, 26 March 2022 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 27 March 2022

No cause of death has been determined, so remove overdosed. Remove the whole line about THC it's offensive to anyone with a brain. All other drugs in his system are consistent with someone treating depression, anxiety and pain. 72.191.110.124 (talk) 04:03, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

 Not done: Article currently does not say he died by overdose or give a cause. Don't see why mentioning THC on this urine test is "offensive to anyone with a brain" any more so than the tricyclics. Cannolis (talk) 04:16, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

You're quite right that he may have been being treated for depression, anxiety or pain. Not sure why mention of THC should be offensive. Martinevans123 (talk) 08:54, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 27 March 2022 (2)

He had drugs in his system but they're still waiting to say it was an overdose. What is not disputed however is the following which should be updated: In his room, there were multiple drugs found, according to Colombia authorities. "Colombian authorities found: marijuana, antidepressants, opioids, heroine [sic]. At least 10 different substances found,” citing Fiscalia Colombia, the national attorney general’s office. Eastcoastknowledge (talk) 18:12, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

 Not done for now: please establish a consensus for this alteration before using the {{edit semi-protected}} template. This is actively being edited. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 18:14, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 27 March 2022 (3)

Please change died of an overdose insinuation to they found drugs in his room. No ones confirmed its an overdose (though it likely is). What is not disputed:

"In his room, there were multiple drugs found, according to a report citing Colombia authorities. “Colombian authorities found: marijuana, antidepressants, opioids, heroine [sic]. At least 10 different substances found,” Fiscalia Colombia, the national attorney general’s office said. Eastcoastknowledge (talk) 18:15, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Where in our article does it say he died of an overdose? Also, cited sources do not say they "found drugs in his room" but the list of drugs were found on a urine drug screen. Cannolis (talk) 18:20, 27 March 2022 (UTC)

The article says "preliminary urine toxicology test indicated that Hawkins had ten substances in his system at the time of his death. This is not "an insinuation", it's just a fact. But there is no mention of any substances found in his room. Is that a fact? Even if factual, is that really justified? Martinevans123 (talk) 15:39, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

Tributes and Twitter

Hi. All the cites to Twitter posts in the tribute section are causing the "External link in title" error (scroll down to the refs section). They should all use the cite tweet template instead of the cite web template. I don't know if there's a bot or AWB script to fix these in one go, but thought I'd mention it here. Thanks. Lugnuts ^{Fire Walk with Me} 14:59, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

We have TweetCiteBot, which was moved to DeprecatedFixerBot, both operated by TheSandDoctor. I think the issues with Tweetcitebot were resolved. Carlstak (talk) 15:47, 28 March 2022 (UTC)

grammar

Film credit

Taylor played Iggy Pop in the movie CBGB released in 2013, so Studio 666 was not his first credit 2A02:C7E:4CCF:3D00:39C3:D21:EE79:4EC2 (talk) 22:18, 2 April 2022 (UTC)

It's been fixed. Zoolver (talk) 00:08, 4 April 2022 (UTC)

Did he die of a drug overdose?

Sources say he had drugs in his system, but that doesn't automatically equal death by overdose. Can anyone clarify on the page? 1.145.229.16 (talk) 01:56, 11 April 2022 (UTC)

Rolling Stone article.

This is relevant information. Will the person who keeps deleted be willing to talk to me? Because I think this needs to be said. Kellogsricecrispies (talk) 15:52, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

Giving five paragraphs to describe one Rolling Stone article is WP:UNDUE weight. You said twice that Smith and Cameron objected to it; once will suffice. – Muboshgu (talk) 16:14, 30 August 2022 (UTC)

Did he die from the Pfizer jab?

Sounds like he had myocarditis and the drug just pushed him over the edge. Any sources for this? 202.27.212.13 (talk) 09:24, 7 December 2022 (UTC)

how is anyone supposed to know this? look up a source --FMSky (talk) 09:32, 7 December 2022 (UTC)
