Our article Michaël Raitner contains no date of birth (one was removed in 2018, apparently at your request). You're probably referring to the Google knowledge panel, but we have no control over that. You'll have to take the matter up with Google. There's a "Feedback" link at the bottom of the panel that you can use. Deor (talk) 12:59, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The date of birth that was removed here is completely different from that (still) given at the French Wikipedia.  --Lambiam 18:14, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Somebody recently removed the "naissance" line from the infobox, and the infobox reacted bizarrely by creating this new date. I don't know where it's getting it from. (Fair bet it's from Wikidata.) There is no "date de naissance" in the source (any more).  Card Zero  (talk) 19:11, 10 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I've just removed it from Wikidata, it should not show at fr anymore. Pinguinn 🐧 03:19, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Electronic Dance Music Producers “Over Easy”

Hello I have been trying to find the Wikipedia page for Electronic Dance Music production duo “Over Easy” so I can reference an article but I can’t find them? I am including a link to all their socials and work - hoo.be/overeasy --Jroodz (talk) 01:34, 12 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

In what way are they notable (see Wikipedia:Notability (music))? Have they been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself, or won or been nominated for a major music award, or any similarly notable thing? 10:41, 12 June 2022 (UTC)

MUSIC theory: a strange modulation called [...]

Hi, I know 3 modulations: 1) common chords 2) chromatic with one or more chromatisms 3) enharmonic.

I want to know the name of this modulation:

V 3_4 (Ab-Cb-Db-F) i.e. dominant of Gb major (as a very very short and "not resolved" digression of the main tone Eb minor) > to the II of F minor (i.e. G NATURAL!-Bb-Db-F called "half diminished seventh"). I dont see common chords here, nor chromatisms (Gb to G natural) nor enharmonies. I dont see that fa minor is the tone of the III degree (my Db is the dominant not the tonic). Surely an "avoided cadence"! i.e. a dominant landing to the II (or IV or VI) of a differnet tonality but without any chromatism. What the NAME of this modulation please? I guess that this IS a modulation, not a change of tonality. thanks a lot.

PS: with a *different* dominant like V Ab-C-Eb-Gb all were very easy: a "cadence to the altered subdominant" (G natural = IV# of Db major) and via "common chord modulation" this IV#7 of Db major is = II7 of F minor. ok! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Vastymedoisa (talkcontribs) 02:03, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This is double posted with a copy on the miscellaneous desk. Might be a good idea to keep all the answers there rather than in two places.  Card Zero  (talk) 02:22, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Animated film, featuring a rooster as the lead character

In the mid-late 90s or early 2000s, I recommended an animated comedy movie to my elderly father (RIP), who enjoyed comedies. The main character was a rooster, blustery and funny. The film had favorable reviews, from a comedic standpoint, and wasn't (solely) aimed at small children. Can anyone help me identify the film?

Afterwards, my Dad thought I had played a malicious trick on him, by "recommending a cartoon" (an animated film.) He said "I'll get you back for that!" Mystified, I reminded him of Saturday mornings, when he joined my brother & me in laughing at Wile E. Coyote and the Road Runner, etc. He grumbled an agreement, but stated that "cartoons" are for children! I refrained from rebutting with Flesh Gordon or Fantastic Animation Festival, not to mention his own Saturday morning enjoyment of much milder entertainment. Any thoughts about the name of the Rooster film? Thanks for your consideration, Tribe of Tiger Let's Purrfect! 21:15, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

World Cup 2022 Panini

With all 32 teams finally known, when is the Panini World Cup album going to be released in mainland Europe? I tried looking myself but couldn't find anything. Please note we're not talking about Road to Qatar or whatever, just the good old classic World Cup album. Cheers, 88.207.58.88 (talk) 22:59, 14 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
