Songwriter

[edit]

There has been some back and forth over the use of the term ‘songwriter’ to describe Morissette. She has, as I indicated in my edit summary, written the songs on her previous album (actually on several albums), so the term seems justified. IP, could you please discuss why you are trying to remove it? - SchroCat (talk) 02:32, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

In addition, sources have acknowledged that she is a songwriter. See, for example, this. -- Ssilvers (talk) 02:40, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I left a series of edition summaries indicating repeatedly that adding the term songwriter, both in the short description and in the lead sentence of this article, could extend to more than 3 or 4 professions at the same time unless they want to read the MOS:ROLEBIO where the overload of the initial paragraph with diverse and varied functions should be avoided, that's why I tried to correct this just before you guys and the other user reverted several of my reviews without having discussed this first before editing. 190.167.27.164 (talk) 05:00, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
How does calling her a “singer and songwriter” breach ROLEBIO? - SchroCat (talk) 06:43, 21 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I don't know, I just took the curiosity to review Wikipedia's biographical style manual to be able to comply with the issue of the short description of the articles involved dedicated to Filipino celebrities and it seems to me that the user showed me the reliable news source about of the singer and that he not added it in the opening sentence of this paragraph, so I was not allowed to delete again the short description about the excessive use of professions that should have been made. 190.167.27.164 (talk) 00:00, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It appears that you misunderstand the rule. -- Ssilvers (talk) 02:34, 24 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It seems not! 190.167.27.164 (talk) 00:50, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
If you think “singer and songwriter” breaches ROLEBIO, then you definitely have misunderstood, because it doesn’t. - SchroCat (talk) 04:02, 25 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
