Awards in lead sentence

I removed "Grammy Award winning" from the lead sentence, and it was placed back, but as I do not want to revert-war over it, I'll explain the removal. I do not follow a personal policy of removing awards from the lead sentence (several others editors besides me remove it when we see it), but rather, it is POV to include it there because the lead sentence is for saying who the subject is, not what they have won; it puts undue weight on the awards over other content in the article, and because placing any awards in the lead sentence immediately puts a positive spin on the article (the same way putting "Razzie award-winning" at the beginning would be negative (I will admit though that I should have removed "multi platinum selling" from the lead sentence as well, but I missed it). This all being said, there is nothing wrong with putting awards further on in the lead section just not in the lead sentence. See the following for similar explanations: [1][2][3][4][5] Thanks.

He is the credited co-writer and co-producer of Renegades (X Ambassadors song). Is that important enough to be on the list? Vesuvius Dogg (talk) 20:48, 13 November 2015 (UTC)

Orphaned references in Alex da Kid

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Alex da Kid's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named ":0":

• From Hayley Williams: "BPI Certified Awards Search" (insert "BoB" into the search box, select "Keyword" on the "Search by" drop-down menu and then select "Go"). British Phonographic Industry. Retrieved 2013-09-04.
• From Jay-Z: Pan bought shares of NBA teams, places himself amongst the Nets owners (Original article in Chinese)
• From Rihanna: "Fenty v. Arcadia Group Records". p. 4. Retrieved May 23, 2013.

Reference named "riaa":

• From Skylar Grey discography: "Gold & Platinum: Fort Minor". Recording Industry Association of America. Retrieved December 30, 2011.
• From Hayley Williams: "RIAA Certifications for B.o.B". Billboard. Retrieved July 15, 2010.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 14:06, 27 November 2014 (UTC)
