Genre discussion

[edit]

A note, for if the anonymous editor(s) ever make their way to the talk page:

Genre, on Wikipedia, goes by whatever reliable sources directly state for a musician/album/song/etc. We don't go by our own personal interpretation and understanding of the genre - that violates Wikipedia's policy against "original research". You cannot override what a reliable source says just because you personally disagree with it.

Rather than continuing to attempt to remove it, your efforts would be better spent finding additional sources that support other genre being added in addition to Jazz, as to illustrate that its other genre too. Or, if you have to find a rare source that says something like "Bewitched is not a jazz album, its a pop album", then that could be implemented in the body of the article somewhere.

If anyone decides to go these routes, WP:RSMUSIC and WP:NOTRSMUSIC are great resources for ideas of sources that are generally considered reliable or unreliable. For example, people who self-publish videos to Youtube or Tik Tok are generally not going to be considered usable. But professional publications like Billboard (magazine), Rolling Stone, Pitchfork (magazine) - generally would be. Sergecross73 msg me 18:36, 5 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
