The Flamingos

Sorry I got that wrong. Two Flamingos groups! I suppose the person who put the Doo Wop at (sic) 50 in the article earlier made the same mistake. Thanks for straightening that out. Donner60 (talk) 00:33, 16 May 2013 (UTC)

"When the name of a band requires the definite article, lowercase it in running text"

Chicago Manual of Style: [1] (click on Answer). So please stop changing it, as you did at List of Miracles group members, The Flamingos, etc. Rothorpe (talk) 14:22, 18 April 2015 (UTC)

Re: The Drifters

Concerning the recent Drifters edit: "The US Trademark Appeal Court has recently ruled that this is not the official Drifters group and is taking action to decline their mark." In that case, please add this info to the article (with proof). (Also, change is to was in the first paragraph, and put the year the group cease to exit in the Infobox; since it has no present members.)--Halls4521 (talk) 21:25, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

If your submission is not edited soon, it could be nominated for deletion. If you would like to attempt to save it, you will need to improve it.

You may request Userfication of the content if it meets requirements.

Your draft article, Draft:Mark Scott (singer)

Hello, David100b. It has been over six months since you last edited your WP:AFC draft article submission, entitled "Mark Scott".

Speedy deletion nomination of Solid Gold Weekend (radio program)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Solid Gold Weekend (radio program) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section A7 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because the article appears to be about an organization or company, but it does not credibly indicate how or why the subject is important or significant: that is, why an article about that subject should be included in an encyclopedia. Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such articles may be deleted at any time. Please read more about what is generally accepted as notable.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be removed without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

Proposed deletion of Solid Gold Weekend (radio program)

The article Solid Gold Weekend (radio program) has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Non-notable.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Adam9007 (talk) 16:05, 25 September 2016 (UTC)

I just want to keep the page active and disagree that it's non-notable. The show airs on 9 radio stations across the United States and there are many Wikipedia pages discussing DJs and other radio programs. David100b (talk) 16:15, 25 September 2016 (UTC)

The Platters

As I'm sure you must know after almost ten years of editing, statements in edit summaries like "I'm well versed on The Platters history" count for absolutely nothing here. We go by what reliable, published sources say. I'm quite happy to compare sources on the article talk page, and indeed have already raised the issue - you have not responded. That is where discussion takes place - not in edit summaries, not on pages like this, and certainly not through reverting good faith edits to maintain the status quo ante, which you have done several times. If you persist in your behaviour one more time you will immediately be reported for edit warring. Just discuss the matter in a civil fashion in the proper place, and that can be avoided. Thanks. Ghmyrtle (talk) 12:53, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

More than happy to discuss it. The subject in discussion was a member of the earlier group named The Flamingos. He played piano with The Platters on their first recording session but is not considered an original member. There are more published sources than not that don't consider him an early member of the group. I'm making changes for accuracy.

Please discuss it on the article talk page. On Wikipedia, verifiability is paramount - not what you believe to be true. " Wikipedia does not publish original research. Its content is determined by previously published information rather than the beliefs or experiences of editors. Even if you're sure something is true, it must be verifiable before you can add it. If reliable sources disagree, then maintain a neutral point of view and present what the various sources say, giving each side its due weight." Ghmyrtle (talk) 17:12, 4 April 2019 (UTC)
