Wikipedia:Peer review/Hot Butter/archive1
I have made significant improvements to this page, given a limited amount of available information and a lot of available misinformation, such as claims that it is a one-man band. I don't know any information about the other band members, except that there is a picture in the album of them showing two keyboardists in addition to Free at the Moog, a guitarist, and two percussionists. This is the only picture of the band on the album cover, though it is fragmented several times. The liner notes' only mention of the band is that it consisted of Free in the studio with "a bunch of fellow players" and several references to them as a group. It took a lot of web research to determine that these were the band and not just the arrangers, engineers, and songwriters of three tracks, and that was done quite a while ago, and now the only hits I can get are for things I generated. I trust it has been adequately cleaned up since the request, whcih came before I got to it. --Scottandrewhutchins 19:45, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- The article is stub without the list. I recommend continuing expansion while citing sources. Also check out MoS. - Tutmosis 20:31, 9 November 2006 (UTC)
- Not much more to add. The lead needs rewriting in accordance with the MoS. And, besides the lead, there's not much content there. I'm not an expert on articles related to music groups, but perhaps the article could do with some more history, a note on evolution of the band's members, and definitely more sources and references. //Halibutt 09:38, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

- A few things:
- Instead of merging the album tracklists into this article, create separate pages for each release and format it in a more intelligble format. There are dozens of well-made discography sections on this site; for a variety of them, see Rage Against the Machine, Isis, The Fall of Troy, Cult of Luna, or for a very comprehensive alternative, Radiohead discography. All of these articles handle the discography in a slightly different way, so take a look and decide which one is best for you.
- Likewise, I don't think it's strictly necessary to put the reference number of the album after each mention. It's convention to place the release year in parenthesis after the first mention of an album, however.
- For general help, see Portal:music.
- Something to note: bands get deleted from Wikipedia daily. There must be a degree of notability, or this will fall under the same hammer eventually.

- As I said, there is very little information on this band available, and much misinformation, as reflected in the earlier edits stating that this is a one-man band. The liner notes are more commentary than history, and fairly brief at that, so they are not terribly useful. It even shows a picture of the band but doesn't bother to say who is who. This is the best I could get it with what I could find.--Scottandrewhutchins 01:52, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
