Talk:Dinosaur Jr.

Should be easy enough to get facts for this band, just google for "Dinosaur Jr". I came up with a fan site that had lots of facts and dates at http://tinpan.fortunecity.com/newreed/336/bio.html - and Google shows plenty more sites as well. - Logotu 19:58 4 Jun 2003 (UTC)

I'm sorry--"equally on par"? Isn't that redundant? --Domukaz

That's correctly right. I fixed it. .msbmsb 16:22, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Support but it has to be said that the site is inconsistent, e.g. Mailing List and News use "Jr." and "Jr". However, since the HTML <title> tag uses "Dinosaur Jr", I see no reason to oppose. --Lox (t,c) 15:56, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Support - seems fine to me since that's the way most people would type it in and that's the way my t-shirts read, but it's very true that it's not consistent anywhere, not on the merchandise, cds, website, etc. Seems like a non-issue to me, really. .msbmsb 00:12, 24 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Okay: Let's establish the tense for the intro. "were", "gained", and other past-tense words appear, even though the first sense states "Dinosaur Jr is an American alternative rock band". Notice, for example, that the Nirvana page states that Nirvana "was" an American rock band. Which is it?

See the Official Dinosaur Jr site - there is no period. --HasNoClue 08:28, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
