Covers

[edit]

This song seems to be a large target for unsubstantiated additions of covers. While I'm sure many bands have covered this song, (although Guns 'n Roses have not,) please at least slap a quick proof on the talk page.

If you read it carefully you will see the words "mislabeled" which means that i know Guns N' Roses have not covered the song, just that in P2P programs they say so. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.7.101.48 (talk) 19:59, 13 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

While I agree your wording was correct, you're basically saying "Fact A is not true" That's like me going to a page on any other song, and writing "Band X have not covered this song." While I personally wish people using P2P programs could get it right, I can't police them. And it shouldn't affect a legitimate list of covers.

In which Brett Michaels' intelligence is questioned

[edit]

i thought he bought that song from some guy, but i saw that he said he wrote it. i don't beleive he is that smart —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.194.137.193 (talk) 03:45, 22 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

He did buy it from some guy, I met the man. I do not remember his name, but do remember he was in a wheelchair. He had proof that the song was his, after I didn't believe him. 2603:3004:9:3300:805C:9244:F931:97EA (talk) 16:25, 7 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

The section "Background and writing" is copy-pasted from a 2014 article on teamrock.com The non-encyclopedic phrase "an exotic dancer, natch" kinda gave it away.12.181.196.66 (talk) 15:18, 10 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in Every Rose Has Its Thorn

[edit]

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 Every Rose Has Its Thorn'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 "yearend":

  • From Look Away: "1999: The Year in Music". Billboard. 111 (52). Nielsen Business Media, Inc.: YE-42 25 December 1999. ISSN 0006-2510.

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 06:42, 28 May 2017 (UTC)[reply]
