Talk:Diamonds on the Soles of Her Shoes

Edit

I feel better with this wording. Burnedfaceless (talk) 17:52, 10 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Urgent

This should be changed The performance from that show is considered one of the most memorable musical performances in SNL's history.[4]

The source cited is song facts where individuals leave comments about the songs. This is not a valid source.

Basically it is someone's opinion who may or may not be an expert on the subject. It's not like you're saying critics listeners or commercial success this is an anonymous comment of someone's person opinion.

I'm just going to delete the whole sentence and someone else change it. Burnedfaceless (talk) 19:15, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Which has been approved by the site's moderators. It is a reliable source.--Laun chba ller 20:22, 23 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I'm deleting it again. You're not addressing the issue. Go to songfacts.com and search for everything you did. I posted the first comment. It's not a reliable source and furthermore it is complete speculation by an anonymous person like me or you. Find a critic's opinion or SNL interview or something other than song facts.

I'm deleting this. Burnedfaceless (talk) 14:01, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Do I need to go to song facts.com and post Donald Fagen likes balls to make my point or are you going to find a legitimate source to back up your statement? Burnedfaceless (talk) 14:03, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I mean dude even if the site is approved that's for certain uses. Just because Joe Schmoe said it was the most memorable it's asinine that you would consider citing and putting that in the article.. Burnedfaceless (talk) 14:07, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes you do. Again, the content is approved by moderators. When it says that, then I will agree it. I suggest you go to the reliable sources' noticeboard.--Laun chba ller 16:29, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I suggest you get a moderator. It's a weaker source. If it had a link to an SNL interview or something....

I visited the source and it's one person's opinion. I'm deleting it again and I'm sorry you lack common intelligence. Burnedfaceless (talk) 21:31, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Actually I'll edit the sentence. Burnedfaceless (talk) 21:32, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

That sentence is appropriate with the citation. Burnedfaceless (talk) 21:34, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

We could also say x from song facts considers this to be one of the most memorable performance. Those would be appropriate sentences for that citation. Notice you can't find other sources - that should show you something. You have the intelligence and stubbornness of a mule. Burnedfaceless (talk) 21:38, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I spell it out for you dumbass the site often contains links to interviews and that's why it's listed there. But it also contains opinions and speculation. The moderators assume you have a tenth grade education. Burnedfaceless (talk) 21:40, 9 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I was being a dick

I'm not trying to be an asshole but the wording should be changed. We have no idea who is saying it was one of the most memorable. If you watch SNL during the 70s they brought down the house regularly.

That is a bold statement besides being qualitative and speculative.

All I'm saying is the wording should be changed. You have no idea who wrote that. Look at Kind of Blue - that is acclaimed by critics, musicians and listeners and that is easy to cite and say.

I'm not trying to be a dick I was and I apologize. Consider rewording the sentence. I realize you put work into this article. I played bass on this song, at a high school battle of the bands, love Paul Simon.

Songfacts is a good source for some uses but this particular instance you're going out on a limb.

I've got a stressful day today but I'll come back and try to do some less sarcastic. Burnedfaceless (talk) 14:39, 10 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

I mean for God's sake Justin Beiber brought it down, he ruined he SNL for me that night. At least he knows his music isn't mature and started smoking herb. There really was some incredible music regularly during that period. Burnedfaceless (talk) 14:47, 10 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
