Incorrect information

Agony was cofounded by Andres Jaramillo y Alfonso Pinzon, then they met the rest band's memembers at the University. https://living-metal.com/agony-la-banda-de-thrash-metal-colombiana/ "Agony fue fundada en 1993 por dos compañeros de universidad, Andrés Jaramillo y Alfonso Pinzón, quienes reclutaron a dos miembros adicionales de su universidad. Tras varias audiciones, Ernesto Velasco se unió como el vocalista principal, completando la formación que grabó la demo auto-titulada de la banda en 1994. Esta primera demo ayudó a la banda a ganar reconocimiento en la escena underground de Bogotá." Artemiisa (talk) 19:25, 1 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Revirvlkodlaku Hello again! I just noticed a profile changed the information about Agony's foundation, even though the reference link, on the first paragraph says Agony es una banda de metal extremo originaria de Colombia, fundada en Bogotá en 1993 por el guitarrista Andrés Jaramillo y el baterista Alfonso Pinzón. There is no evidence that Robayo and Jaramillo where high school friends and Robayo came up with the band idea, that's false information and Robayo just can't take credit of Pinzon’s work which is his legacy in the Colombian Metal Industry.

Please let me know what can we do about it.

Thank you. Artemiisa (talk) 18:56, 19 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi @Revirvlkodlaku

As mentioned in both articles, Alfonso Pinzón is a founded member of the band; he wasn't recruited, nor did the band exist before his involvement. This is a fact.

All three original members, Pinzón, Jaramillo and Robayo, met at the university. So technically both accounts are correct. However, Pinzón and Jaramillo have always been the musical and leadership pillars of the band for over three decades, while Robayo can be mention as one of the original members. It's important to mention that Pinzón and Jaramillo are the founders and leaders of Agony, a fact easily verified by credits in every single album over the past 30 years.

Hi @Artemiisa, please clarify what you are specifically objecting to. This article mentions Robayo as one of the founders of Agony, and this one mentions that Jaramillo and Pinzón were university friends. Which detail do you think should be changed?

@Artemiisa, why don't you go ahead and make the edits you deem appropriate, and we can go from there? Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 14:04, 20 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
