Band Articles

Are you thinking of creating an article on a band you know? First, check to see if there is already an article for the band. Next, remember that Wikipedia has certain music notability requirements that bands should meet in order to have their own article. Some of these include being featured in multiple non-trivial published works or winning a major music award, such as a Grammy, Juno or Mercury Music Award. A band need not meet all of these criteria, but it should meet at least one of them.

Lead Section Size

The lead section of a Wikipedia article is the section before the first heading. The table of contents, if displayed, generally appears between the lead section and the first subheading.

Rule of thumb: If a topic deserves a heading or subheading, then it deserves short mention in the lead.

The lead section should contain up to four paragraphs, depending on the length of the article, and should provide a preview of the main points the article will make, summarizing the primary reasons the subject matter is interesting or notable. The lead should be capable of standing alone as a concise overview of the article, should be written in a clear and accessible style, should be carefully sourced like the rest of the text, and should encourage the reader to want to read more. The following table has some general guidelines for the length of the lead section:

< 15,000 characters medium size > 30,000 characters
one or two paragraphs   two or three paragraphs   three or four paragraphs

About Me

edit

My goal is to make Wikipedia the best possible encyclopedia it can be. I believe that everyone should have access to free, high-quality information, and Wikipedia is a vital resource for achieving that goal. I'm always looking for ways to improve the quality of Wikipedia, whether it's by editing articles for clarity and accuracy or by helping other editors learn the ropes.

I'm also a big fan of collaboration. I believe that we can achieve great things when we work together, and that's why I love being part of the Wikipedia community. I'm always happy to help other editors, and I'm always open to learning from them.

If you're ever interested in chatting or collaborating on a Wikipedia project, please don't hesitate to reach out!

If you feel like I’ve helped you, please leave a "thank you" and give me a thumbs up. It encourages me to keep learning and improving.
