Some observations

Hello. You seem to do some editing like me... just random things on wiki but please look out for "bare" citations. You can see these in the References section just as a plain links. I think I came across some done by you.. and there is an easy way to do citations. It's in the Help:Edit_toolbar. Click "Cite", and if it's a website then click, "Cite web". Paste the link in the URL spot and then click the magnifying glass. it will fill the details for you.

Also, if you come across pages with this, there's a tool I use: Reflinks where you just copy and paste the wiki article link in it and click Go. It will do it all for you.. but of course if you are citing an article, the above method is preferred.

Brush on and/or bookmark the MOS:ALBUM album style guide to get a better feel for what order the subheaders should go in.. I am finding a lot of articles that are in weird orders [not your doing, I'm just saying be on the look out so you can fix a bunch of things at once]

This message is not meant to be taken accusatory or rudely by any means. I am just trying to be helpful and for all I know, you could already know how to do all this. if so, then disregard

Thanks and please use the ping function so I get a notification of your reply. --Jennica✿^{talk / contribs} 14:06, 22 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks

I really like how you fixed up the musical style section on Panic! at the Disco. I've been wanting to get rid of all those ridiculous genres listed for each album, but never knew how to replace/tweak it because it looked like such a major part in that section. Thanks. Sekyaw (talk) 04:58, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you. I know those genres were driving me nuts. They were different than the infobox and I fixed the genres so the article supported the infobox. Bowling is life (talk) 11:48, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

A barnstar for you!

Mudvayne

Thank you for that watch. Mudvayne articles are among the most irritating thing I've ever had to deal with on Wikipedia. (DannyMusicEditor from an IP) 104.39.247.36 (talk) 21:12, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

My Chemical Romance

Why did you remove my edit from My Chemical Romance? I'm not trying to add it back, I just wanted to know what you disagreed with. Thanks. SuperLuigi22 (talk) 00:58, 5 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Good Charlotte

Can you make it so the timeline includes The Madden Brothers (including touring members & session musicians) and Good Charlotte also has the touring and session musicians on timeline.

Thanks, WikiEditsAnnon WikiEditsAnnon (talk) 19:48, 11 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Only offical members go on the timeline. Bowling is life (talk) 20:58, 11 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

New Found Glory

Why did you remove my edit saying that the band is best known for "My FrI ends Over You". It's their only song to reach the US Billboard or reach 10 million views on YouTube. WikiEditsAnnon (talk) 14:33, 25 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Your edit to RATM's "The Battle of Los Angeles"

I started a discussion on the Talk page for The Battle of Los Angeles (album): Talk:The Battle of Los Angeles (album)#Rap metal vs. Rock - "This edit changed the genre in the lede (lead paragraph) from rap metal to rock. I reverted because...." Please contribute your opinion, suggestions, etc. so we can reach a consensus. Thanks! - Mark D Worthen PsyD (talk) 22:56, 16 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

In Bloom Neck Deep

I just wanted to thank you loads for helping on the In Bloom song so that it wouldn't be deleted - I had no idea how to fix it.

BTW TØP's Tear in my heart was there because I copied that info to try to get it like that on In Bloom but it failed. WikiEditsAnnon2 (talk) 23:08, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

In Bloom Neck Deep sources

I don't know if it's useful, but I found a source mentioning about In Bloom having frequent radio play. If that helps. But not found much about charts for it. Or any of neck deep's singles. I will look for that source tho WikiEditsAnnon2 (talk) 23:20, 5 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I used own musical ability to get the chord progression for In Bloom. Cause most reviews won't detail chord progressions. — Preceding unsigned comment added by WikiEditsAnnon2 (talk • contribs) 00:12, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@WikiEditsAnnon2: Using your own musical ability falls under the category of original research. —C.Fred (talk) 00:15, 6 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Paramore

Hey you know on Paramore wouldnt the explation of Hayley being the only constant member (since formation) need "- since it's interception" as otherwise she hasn't been the only constant member; Taylor York joined in 2007 but never left the band. So would he be a constant member too? WikiEditsAnnon2 (talk) 07:22, 16 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Genre edit on Bennington

Please do not add content to an article that is unsourced. Genres, like anything require sources. I'm sure you are familiar with WP:OR and WP:RS. To top it off, per WP:SUBJECTIVE, "Wikipedia articles about art and other creative topics (e.g., musicians, actors, books, etc.) have a tendency to become effusive. This is out of place in an encyclopedia. Aesthetic opinions are diverse and subjective—we might not all agree about who the world's greatest soprano is. However, it is appropriate to note how an artist or a work has been received by prominent experts and the general public. For instance, the article on Shakespeare should note that he is widely considered to be one of the greatest authors in the English language. Articles should provide an overview of the common interpretations of a creative work, preferably with citations to experts holding that interpretation. Verifiable public and scholarly critiques provide useful context for works of art.". In other words, things like genre, which are artistic interpretations on work, require a source. Those genres are not sourced in the prose, so they were removed. Any further thoughts on this are welcome, but maybe let's stick them to the page on the singer. Andrzejbanas (talk) 17:37, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Andrzejbanas: Yes I am aware of WP:OR and WP:RS. That edit was a mistake and I shouldn't have recklessly reverted your edit. I'm going to find sources for those genres since they are prominent genres in his career. Bowling is life (talk) 17:49, 18 January 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Fall Out Boy

There's a f#$%ing award for this? dannymusiceditor ^{Speak up!} 00:47, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@DannyMusicEditor: I guess so. Why? And which one are you talking about? Bowling is life (talk) 00:55, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

People are getting awards for using Twitter? That's the joke of the week. Wow. dannymusiceditor ^{Speak up!} 00:57, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah it's stupid but it's an award. Bowling is life (talk) 00:59, 1 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Revival (Eminem album)

The alt text is useful for visually impaired people. I agree with what you did with 'pop'. HARSH RATHOD (talk) 03:22, 7 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Imagine Dragons

Don't revert. Go post on the talk page or the Music Wikiproject and see if you can get someone to have a look at the sources you signaled as defective or partial. Good luck. Drmies (talk) 01:22, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Drmies: I know about the edit revert rule but none of the sources explicitly support the genre that the user is adding. I'm going to start a discussion on the talk page so the edit war doesn't continue, its gone on long enough. Bowling is life (talk) 01:27, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Right--edit warring is edit warring even if you're right. Thanks, Drmies (talk) 01:29, 8 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Twenty One Pilots

I don't know how to add album covers. :( Every time I upload to Wikimedia Commons, they're removed. The article "Ode to Sleep" needs one, so if you'd be so kind as to add the cover, that'd be great. Or at least lemme know how. It can be found here.-- AlexanderHovanec (talk) 20:57, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@AlexanderHovanec: I would love to help but I don't know how do that either. I wish I knew how to do it but I don't know where I can learn how to do it. Bowling is life (talk) 21:00, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, that's perfectly fine. It's strange, I've been asking around and no one seems to know how to do so. Hopefully someone can get around to doing it eventually. -- AlexanderHovanec (talk) 21:03, 11 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

February 2018

Thanks for contributing to the article Outsider (Three Days Grace album) . However, one of Wikipedia's core policies is that contributions must be verifiable, by being clearly attributed to reliable sources, preferably using inline citations. Please help by adding more sources to the article you edited, and/or by clarifying how the sources already given support the claims (see here for how to do inline referencing). Thanks! P.S. If you need any help, you can look at Help:Contents/Editing Wikipedia or ask at Wikipedia:New contributors' help page, or just ask me. Thank you. --Jax 0677 (talk) 15:20, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Jax 0677: Thank you. I'm fully aware of Wikipedia's policies. I just made some format fixes to the page and I was planning on adding sources to the article (I did not create the article). I just didn't have the time to add sources to the article at the moment. Bowling is life (talk) 17:19, 26 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Billy Herrington

Are you certain about the source that cites his death? FunksBrother (talk) 19:59, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@FunksBrother: Yes but the more I look at the source, the more it seems like it is not the best source. But it looks like, sadly, that he did die today. If you search his name you'll see alot of people mourning his loss on Twitter, even his mom confirmed it. And yes I know Twitter isn't a reliable source but if that many people are mouring his death, than it must have actually happened. If the source that I added isn't relaible than I'll search for another one. Bowling is life (talk) 20:07, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]

@Bowling is life: The link was discussed in the article’s talk page and one of the users disagreed that the source is verified. I want to make sure it’s correct before there’s a news article that everyone fell for a death hoax. FunksBrother (talk) 20:27, 3 March 2018 (UTC)[reply]
