...that NRT, which of late has turned into a site that reproduces artist press releases, is a reputable source for artist content, then I will have to take your word. But in its early days it was a site much like IMDB and Wikipedia, and other User-maintained sites, which generated content through volunteer editors. (To my knowledge, these have never been considered the best sources, hence the [better source needed] tag.) Otherwise, note, I have repeatedly found fraudulently labeled/construed citations in this article—if I recall, even this NRT article originally was represented as an "Official Bio" or some such. And as you see in my last lead edit, an earlier editor construed appearance on a list of many artists as this artist having won an award. So please AGF with my editing. The careful scrutiny and tags that appear do indeed have a basis (including the NRT you just carte blanche removed). Cheers, and thanks in this New Year for your continuing efforts to make all articles, including this one, encyclopedic. 2601:246:C700:19D:A098:24BE:6BDE:95CA (talk) 19:01, 7 January 2020 (UTC)
