Unreliable sources

edit

I've removed the citations that use songfacts and zobbel as sources as these are not considered to be reliable sources, see here and here. The Q magazine quote should be obtainable from a back issue of the magazine and the chart position should be obtainable from a back issue of either Music Week or ChartsPlus. --JD554 (talk) 08:06, 19 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

Remove "Merchandise" section?

edit

Hello all,

I just did a bit of work on this article to make it contain less unsupported claims and be more concise. However, I am left wondering if the "Merchandise" section is really necessary - I'm just not 100% sold that there needs to be an entire section (or even a mention) that a merch shirt on the tour was designed with this song in mind. Lots of bands release merch to coincide with their concerts. Plus, I couldn't find any solid, citable material that proves the existence of this "42" shirt.

Thoughts?

I think it's totally non-notable trivia. Martinevans123 (talk) 22:18, 5 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
@Martinevans123: I agree. I'm going to remove that section for the time being, unless anyone else is opposed. Lukebechtel (talk) 16:34, 6 June 2019 (UTC)Reply
