Unreferenced BLPs

Hello Caper454! Thank you for your contributions. I am a bot alerting you that 1 of the articles that you created is an Unreferenced Biography of a Living Person. Please note that all biographies of living persons must be sourced. If you were to add reliable, secondary sources to this article, it would greatly help us with the current 139 article backlog. Once the article is adequately referenced, please remove the {{unreferencedBLP}} tag. Here is the article:

1. Kevin Asselin - Find sources: Google (books · news · scholar · free images · WP refs) · FENS · JSTOR · TWL

Dany Heatley is German-Canadian

I brought it up on the talk page and not getting a response there. Other people like that have it mentioned in the lead. Luke McLean for example. Enigma^msg 02:39, 4 April 2014 (UTC)

Genre categories

I'm not reverting your edits just for the sake of it. A few years ago I made the same mistake of bulk-adding genre categories to album articles, but for some reason it's not considered good practice on WP. I forget which user explained it to me (I can have a look if you want), but the genre categories automatically go through the band's main article or something like that—not through the albums. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 21:18, 12 June 2014 (UTC)

I found the guideline for you: WP:WikiProject Albums/Album article style guide#Genre. Hope that helps. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 21:22, 12 June 2014 (UTC)

Not true

"Songs and singles are probably notable if they have been the subject[1] of multiple, non-trivial[2] published works whose sources are independent of the artist and label. This includes published works in all forms, such as newspaper articles, other books, television documentaries and reviews. This excludes media reprints of press releases, or other publications where the artist, its record label, agent, or other self-interested parties advertise or speak about the work. "

Some of the sources for the article don't focus on Sabotage at all, but instead just the song "Am I Going Insane (Radio)" That alone makes it notable. It's fine as an article and an official single so there's no reason to get rid of it.

If you have any further disagreements maybe nominate it for deletion and let the group decide, but until then leave it alone or improve it. Mrmoustache14 (talk) 00:43, 24 June 2014 (UTC)

Black Sabbath used double bass drums

How do you do!

In French Wiki it's accepted link http://www.metal-archives.com/reviews/Black_Sabbath/Tomorrow's_Dream/10709/.

It's others opinion about this question: 1)http://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/the-black-sabbath-album-by-album-thread-1970-2013-part3.327742/page-28

If it was said, then it was either just a great exaggeration or they didn't know what they were talking about. There is brilliant double bass drum work on quite a number of things on Vol. 4 and beyond. Bill never played the double bass like it came to be used by the more straight ahead, pounding metal drummers. Listen to tracks like "Supernaut" or "Tomorrow's Dream" and the double bass drum work there is unique and absolutely sublime.

About Technical Ecstasy

The longest cut, closing track 'Dirty Women', shows a strong vocal from Ozzy, and a tight instrumental arrangement (although the closing riff outstays its welcome by a minute or two). Ward gives us some double bass-drum in this section

Hello. First, progarchives.com is not a reliable source (it's specifically listed as such at Wikipedia:ALBUM/SOURCES#Sources_to_avoid). Secondly, musicmp3spb.org is a questionable source at best and should be discussed if you intend to use it here. Cheers. Caper454 (talk) 17:33, 26 June 2014 (UTC)

It's about about Never Say Die and double bass drums — Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.76.118.29 (talk) 09:57, 27 June 2014 (UTC)

First of all, the information you are trying to add is very questionable in terms of notability and is likely unencyclopedic. So that's one reason to oppose its inclusion. Secondly, the drummagazine.com article only says that Ward used a double bass kit.... it doesn't mention any partuicular albums or songs and even specifically concedes that "drummer Bill Ward hardly played many double bass beats in songs." So there's that too. As far as the other links, who cares? Mention it in the Ward article that he played double bass if you'd like but the fact that he used double bass (as 99% of drummers do, meaning it's not particularly significant or notable in any way) is absolutely irrelevant for album and song articles.

Sockpuppet investigation

Hi. An editor has opened an investigation into sockpuppetry by you. Sockpuppetry is the use of more than one Wikipedia account in a manner that contravenes community policy. The investigation is being held at Wikipedia:Sockpuppet investigations/Caper454, where the editor who opened the investigation has presented their evidence. Please make sure you make yourself familiar with the guide to responding to investigations, and then feel free to offer your own evidence or to submit comments that you wish to be considered by the Wikipedia administrator who decides the result of the investigation. If you have been using multiple accounts (in a manner contrary to Wikipedia policy), please go to the investigation page and verify that now. Leniency is usually shown to those who promise not to do so again, or who did so unwittingly, but the abuse of multiple accounts is taken very seriously by the Wikipedia community.
