The Alter

I added more information about the inspiration behind "Fuck With Myself". (Ashley Zafaranlou (talk) 18:50, 21 October 2016 (UTC))[reply]

Lay Me Down single???

I have found no evidence on the web that a track by this name was released by Mrs. Banks. The link given leads to her iTunes discography and does not contain the track either.--Infanteriesoldat (talk) 12:13, 3 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Merger complete

Y Merger complete. Information from BANKS (musician) has been merged into this article. Northamerica1000^(talk) 22:55, 19 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Breakthrough

Can someone explain why the Breakthrough section is completely out of order and leads with a completely irrelevant sentence? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Theonlybman (talk • contribs) 22:37, 27 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Possible Corrections

The first citation "1" is an article from a news outlet that is labelling Banks genre of music and it is not a reliable source for that information. Also, there is a review from Rolling Stone magazine that would be an opinion of her music and not a valid source on a factual article in Wikipedia.

Ancestry

I understand that "ethnicelebs" isn't considered a so-called reliable source around these parts... but the California Birth Index does substantiate their assertions at least with regard to names (and that obit did say her family is Jewish). Well, for now, it is what it is.Trillfendi (talk) 22:47, 16 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

2019 allbum name is |||, not III?

if it matters... i think it's supposed to be ||| but I cant italicize it when i tried to correct it. maybe it should read as III (stylized as |||)? tweet from Banks using |||. Melodies1917 (talk) 14:57, 31 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Associated acts

Banks has a song with Francis and the Lights should he be added as an associated act? Billiekhalidfan (talk) 19:41, 10 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
