The following paragraph has been added to the article, and even though it been cited with references online it's something that the band did as kids, and the Dark Horse thing existed but was an entirely different band / members.
If you could have this whole paragraph removed that would be great -
The band was formed following the dissolution of the brother's previous band, the AC/DC influenced Rock Pirates formed in 2004[1] with guitarist Tom Johnson[2] who were describe as an "irony-free Darkness with bare torsos and blond highlights"[3] and later named Dark Horse who released a self titled EP in February 2010.[4]
And then for the next paragraph could you change -
"In 2011 the three brothers regrouped by themselves to form The Family Rain and released their debut single "Trust Me I'm A Genius" on Bigger Splash Records in November 2013"
To just the following (it obviously did not happen in November 2013, as we're not there yet) -
"The three brothers released their debut single "Trust Me I'm A Genius" on Bigger Splash Records in January 2013."
The date's just wrong otherwise, here's a.[5] Thanks for your help!

- Why would removing the paragraph be great? Murry1975 (talk) 11:15, 12 July 2013 (UTC)
- It would be great Murry1975 because I would feel with an "intensity considerably above the normal or average" that the page had been made more accurate based on what I was saying at the top. It's something that they did as kids. I believe that some other people on here have suggested some more constructive edits, so maybe change to one of those?
Not done: We will not remove referenced content just because you dislike it. -- TOW talk 19:18, 17 July 2013 (UTC)
Thanks TOW talk . I'm not too fussed to be honest, but I don't think that you've read my suggestions properly if you can't see why these might need editing, as there is an incorrect date in there at the moment for a start.

Please remove the following sentences... "with guitarist Tom Johnson[2] who were describe as an "irony-free Darkness with bare torsos and blond highlights"[3]" references 2 and 3 are redundant and no longer exist. Therefore there is no source to backup these claims. many thanks Harry67676 (talk) 12:04, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Hi there! In the 2nd paragraph where it says -
"The band was formed following the dissolution of the brother's previous band, the AC/DC influenced Rock Pirates formed in 2004[1] with guitarist Tom Johnson[2] who were describe as an "irony-free Darkness with bare torsos and blond highlights"[3] and later named Dark Horse who released a self titled EP in February 2010.[4]"
Could someone who has the rights to do so please change it to -
"Ollie was the driving force to get the other brothers into music. He started playing guitar at 14 and then persuaded the twins to pick up instruments, Will playing bass and Tim, drums, calling themselves Rock Pirates[1], and later Dark Horse who released a self titled EP in February 2010.[4]"
"Will said: “Ollie picked up a guitar and then it was a very natural thing. We were growing out of an obsession with wrestling so had to go somewhere."
I tried to change it myself, but it said it was protected? The info is from this interview that they did for the Daily Record which is much newer than those other references cited and the words are the band's! :)
This is the reference for it! [1]
Thanks very much!

[edit]This is William Walter from the family rain. I request the removal of some inaccurate/irelavant from the article. From what I can see there is some inaccurate information on our page. As the creator of the family rain, I can confirm the band was not "formed following the dissolution of the brother's previous band, the AC/DC influenced Rock Pirates".Also it is not associated to the band darkhorse. It is a separate entity with no connection artistically, creatively, musically, to any of these projects, in the minds of its creators. The family rain was formed in 2011 with no previous material, no contacts and no platform in the music industry, it is not a re-creation or evolution of any other band/projects. Nobody has ever stated these band are linked and there is no reliable source to state that they are. I understand Wikipedias policy's on dealing with pages on living people are very thorough and fair, the information on our page is inaccurate and we deem it damaging to the online presence of the family rain. Although I acknowledge myself and my brother were in these other bands as people there is no purpose, reason or justification for that information being on the family rain Wikipedia page. In light of this information I request the following text to be removed.
"The band was formed following the dissolution of the brother's previous band, the AC/DC influenced Rock Pirates formed in 2004[1] with guitarist Tom Johnson[2] who were describe as an "irony-free Darkness with bare torsos and blond highlights"[3] and later named Dark Horse who released a self-titled EP in February 2010.[4][5]"

- Unfourtunately Wikipedia isn't an extention of your official web presence, and it isn't an artists or record companies place to supress information. You clearly wish to remove any references to your previous bands, but unfourtuantely they were documented online and are entirely relevant to your current band and therefore this article. To suggest the information is false and that there is no link is disingenuous in the extreme, especially when you (and have previously using your other account names) "admitted" that all 3 members of The Family Rain were in The Rock Pirates and Dark Horse. The article does actually point out that The Family Rain was formed after Dark Horse ended.
- Your attempt to remove the information from the internet by removing your old website for The Rock Pirates from https://archive.org is clearly documented in the history of this article and talk page. What is more "damaging", to have your previous bands mentioned on your Wikipedia page, or it documented for all to see that you have repeatedly tried to hide that information? If in the future someone wrote a book on The Family Rain, researched its members and found reference to The Rock Pirates and Dark Horse - would you expect them to not mention them or retract that information after you complain about those facts being "damaging" and "inaccurate"?
I am not writing this request as an artist or on the behalf of a record label, but as a living person who is mentioned in this article. The Wikipedia page 'Biographies of living persons' (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons) states a few things which I feel to be relevant to this discussion:
"Editors must take particular care when adding information about living persons to any Wikipedia page." "Contentious material about living persons (or in some cases, recently deceased) that is unsourced or poorly sourced – whether the material is negative, positive, neutral, or just questionable – should be removed immediately and without waiting for discussion."
"This policy applies to any living person mentioned in a BLP, whether or not that person is the subject of the article, and to material about living persons in other articles and on other pages, including talk pages.[3] The burden of evidence for any edit on Wikipedia rests with the person who adds or restores material."
I feel the most relevant section, however is section 3.4 of said article, "People who are relatively unknown". In particular the statements:
"Many Wikipedia articles contain material on people who are not well known, even if they are notable enough for their own article. In such cases, exercise restraint and include only material relevant to the person's notability"
"Material that may adversely affect a person's reputation should be treated with special care"
I feel that information on previous projects (especially given that it is taking up a large proportion of a currently locked Wikipedia page) is not relevant to my notability and is damaging to my reputation, which is why I have requested its removal.
![]() | This request for help from administrators has been answered. If you need more help or have additional questions, please reapply the {{admin help}} template, or contact the responding user(s) directly on their own user talk page. |
- Admin help? Odd really. (BTW I am not one.)
- Trouble section? "The band was formed following the dissolution of the brother's previous band, the AC/DC influenced Rock Pirates formed in 2004 with guitarist Tom Johnson who were describe as an "irony-free Darkness with bare torsos and blond highlights"
- Did the Family Rain not start after Rock Pirates? The sources doesnt mention this, but a basic calculation of band finish-start dates would confirm its correct.
- Also the sources qouted use "AC/DC influenced" and "irony-free Darkness with bare torsos and blond highlights", so these are both sourced and varifable.
- Will's opionion "Although I acknowledge myself and my brother were in these other bands as people there is no purpose, reason or justification for that information being on the family rain Wikipedia page." Why? It is varifable and sourced, you cant change the past, even more so in the digital media age.
- Will's reason "I feel that information on previous projects (especially given that it is taking up a large proportion of a currently locked Wikipedia page) is not relevant to my notability and is damaging to my reputation, which is why I have requested its removal." Have you also requested that the websites that have been used as sources also retract thier coverage of you? It takes up a small portion, and mentioning of previous bands is a common practice on here.
- I would be in the opinion of its souced and correct- it stays. Murry1975 (talk) 17:43, 29 October 2013 (UTC)
- Not quite sure why the {{adminhelp}} tag is here? I locked the page and have requested that agreement on the changes be made on the talk page as there was a content dispute on the presence or absence of this material. With what looked like some cover-up be those involved with the band. The present situation is leaning towards retaining which is the position I would take if involved in the discussion.

Is there any chance of anyone responding to the my main edit request?

- Reflist
- Added this reflist to facilitate checking. --Stfg (talk) 12:26, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
Done. Please be patient with these edit requests. We're all volunteers, and two days is better than average. Moreover, the links you provided are "bare URLs". Take a look at the References section to see what the other references provide that yours omit. I haven't filled them out. --Stfg (talk) 12:41, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
Thanks. I would have been more patient if someone hadn't done the first request and then another editor edited the page omitting a double word which my second request corrected, after seeing the second request - it just seemed like it was being actively ignored.
92.8.16.4 (talk) 15:57, 6 November 2013 (UTC)
- No, just wating for someone to take the plunge. When edit requests are made using the template you used, they get automatically listed on a maintenance page. Anyone who does these at all the outstanding requests. Yours was larger than average because there are a lot of links in it, is all. And sometmes, I suspect, people are just occupied elsewhere.

I wish to make some additions to the following paragraph:
In 2011 the three brothers regrouped by themselves to form The Family Rain and released their debut single "Trust Me I'm A Genius" on Bigger Splash Records in November 2012.[15] The band then signed to Universal Music Group subsidiary Mercury Records and began work on their debut album with producer Jim Abbiss at Hansa Studios in Berlin.[16] The band released "Carnival", their first single for Mercury, in March 2013[17] and followed it up with the "Pushing It EP" in May 2013[18] and digital releases "Reason To Die" in July[19] and "Feel Better (Frank)" in October 2013.[20] The band's debut album Under The Volcano is set for release on 3 February 2014.[21] Following Universal's acquisition of EMI and dissolution of Mercury Records, the band were moved to the label's newly launched Virgin EMI Records.[22][23]

Hello. Was hoping to make a couple of edit additions to the page, along with relevant links to back up the information. Please include them in the article wherever you feel most appropriate, many thanks.
The band supported Thirty Seconds To Mars at the iTunes Festival in London in September 2013. A live recording of the show was released on iTunes, following the event. [1][2]
Ollie Walter revealed he was the first of the brothers to pick up an instrument, and started to play the guitar age 14. [3]
The video for the band's single Reason To Die, was filmed at the Waterats in London. It was a world first interactive experience created by the Powster agency, which allows viewers to manipulate the view of the band's performance via 16 different GoPro cameras, as the video plays. The video was nominated for an award in the Interactive Video category at the 2013 UK Music Video Awards, and won an FWA (Favourite Website Award).[4][5][6]
Recently the band recorded a cover version of the Depeche Mode single, Enjoy The Silence, for the Made In Chelsea soundtrack. The song, which was recorded in the band's hometown of Bath with Tom Dalgety, was released on the soundtrack album via Decca Records on November 4 2013.

[edit]It seems like the references are being included in the links but no additions are being made to the article so the links don't actually make any sense being there. Can you make the changes in the article too please?

Additional changes
[edit]Hello. None of the following has been added to the Wikipedia page for the band however the links have. Can we please add the edit so the links are relevant. Thanks Keith.
The band supported Thirty Seconds To Mars at the iTunes Festival in London in September 2013. A live recording of the show was released on iTunes, following the event.
[26] [27]
Ollie Walter revealed he was the first of the brothers to pick up an instrument, and started to play the guitar age 14.
[28]
The video for the band's single Reason To Die, was filmed at the Waterats in London. It was a world first interactive experience created by the Powster agency, which allows viewers to manipulate the view of the band's performance via 16 different GoPro cameras, as the video plays. The video was nominated for an award in the Interactive Video category at the 2013 UK Music Video Awards, and won an FWA (Favourite Website Award).
[29] [30] [31]
Recently the band recorded a cover version of the Depeche Mode single, Enjoy The Silence, for the Made In Chelsea soundtrack. The song, which was recorded in the band's hometown of Bath with Tom Dalgety, was released on the soundtrack album via Decca Records on November 4 2013.

The references present in the article are for the text already in the references as far as I can see. The refs for the band playing with Biffy Clyro have nothing to do with recording a cover version for a soundtrack for instance.

TFR breakup / Voyages
[edit]![]() | This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request. |
The final sentence of this article is incorrect: "The band broke up in 2016, with the brothers going on to form Voyages who released their debut EP New Year’s Day in February 2018.[48][49]" Please change to: "In 2017 the brothers formed a new band called Voyages, adding Lewis and James Woods on drums and bass, respectively. The debut EP from Voyages, titled "New Year's Day" was released in December of 2017 digitally and on vinyl.
Sources to support December release date and vinyl release format, and previously noted source which verifies additional members of new group and their instruments: [1] [2] [3]
None of these sources indicate that The Family Rain have broken up, and in fact the band's comment on their YouTube Channel indicates both are active. (I realize this may not pass muster as a source, but may at least point out that this info is inaccurate...)
[4]
Thanks! Ps - at what point should a new page be created for Voyages? Have seen a few interviews, EP reviews, magazine picks as track of the week etc for them already, and the band seems to be actively working on new music and playing gigs around the UK Gigglespickles (talk) 02:02, 22 May 2018 (UTC)

Not done: Please read the entire article. The History section ends with the statement:
The band broke up in 2016, with the brothers going on to form Voyages who released their debut EP New Year’s Day in February 2018.
This statement contains two reliable sources to verify the statement. That the same personnel are essentially forming the new band is a bit confusing but not unprecedented. An article on Voyages would be acceptable once the new band reaches notability under the criteria for bands or under the general notability guideline.

Thanks so much for the response. I'm a bit confused by it though, as I have read the entire article, as well as the entirety of both sources cited in regard to the sentence in question (at the end of the History section). I'm not seeing anything which verifies or indicates that TFR ever announced a breakup. That seems to be assumed in this sentence because of the creation of the new band Voyages. Have another look if you would please, as I feel my edit more accurately reflects the sources cited, (even just the ones already cited in the article). Thanks Gigglespickles (talk) 20:52, 23 May 2018 (UTC)

- I am closing this in a procedural matter. No response in almost three weeks. Please reopen if you are still interested in making this edit. — MRD2014 Talk 12:38, 25 June 2018 (UTC)
Gigglespickles (talk) @Qwerty6811: Hi guys, sorry hadn't checked in for a while. My edit is only intended to more accurately reflect the sources already cited (and provide additional sources to that end). If you wouldn't mind please taking a look I think it would benefit the accuracy of this article! Thanks
