zobbel.de

I am not sure how Zobbel fits in to all this but it seems like a perfectly reliable source of UK chart information, how can one assume otherwise without doubting every website out there. Are you suspicious that the website is not reliable, or what is the problem here? Officially Mr X (talk) 16:29, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

It's a self published source. Please read the link and What counts as a reliable source on the same page to have a better understanding of what websites to use as references (especially when adding to a bunch of articles at once). Thank you. --CutOffTies (talk) 16:35, 16 April 2011 (UTC)

Harisch

I'm not a big fan of one sentence intros, which is why I included the anxiety disorder in Pete Harnisch's. I rephrased the lead to a way that I thought you would find agreeable. I took out the "He may be best remembered..." and left it with the simple fact that he suffered an anxiety disorder. The fact of the matter is that if you google Pete Harnisch, you'll find 100 articles about his anxiety disorder. It is the most notable thing about him. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.3.18.26 (talk) 10:10, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

See my comment on the talk page. --CutOffTies (talk) 10:18, 20 April 2011 (UTC)

For me, it way a simple matter of writing style. I like to include more than "he played baseball" in the lead. For Harnisch, the most notable thing about him is the disorder he suffered. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.3.18.26 (talk) 10:00, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

The "most notable thing about him" is your opinion that is not backed by reliable sources. More important, the "nearly crippled his career" is not verified, and violates the biography of living persons policy.

In addition to this mishandling of a sensitive topic, you failed to read and apply the clear and simple documentation on Template:By-- I suggest you slow down and ensure your edits are following policy and guidelines before hitting the save button. Perhaps you should be using talk pages more before making edits you're unsure of. --CutOffTies (talk) 12:17, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

I've done a lot of work on Wikipedia in the last 2 years. You were the first person to ever give me a Barnstar. Thanks (though I still like my intro to Pete Harnisch better). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.3.18.26 (talk) 10:19, 27 April 2011 (UTC)

BIlly Joels

Sorry Mister. I thought I was just adding some inofmation to make the wiki more clearer. I said that he aint bound by gendered namiing conventions. That be why he named his little girl "Ray." AInt that the truth?!?! It sure is a different move, if you no what I means.
