The article Ozzie Melendez has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
many issues, no movement on fixes in 6.5 years. Not super notable and reads like an advertisement
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages 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 page 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. Dode222 (talk) 22:20, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
The Mary Wallopers and "Anglophobia"
[edit]Hi all, I'm just dropping this message on all of the WikiProjects associated with The Mary Wallopers. An IP editor has been repeatedly adding a line to the article describing their musical style as Anglophobia. I have been repeatedly removing these inclusions as I do not believe the source a) is reliable enough or b) discusses the supposed Anglophobia in sufficient detail to warrant its inclusion.
There is an active Talk Page discussion which both myself and the IP editor have commented on today. I would value your input either way on this discussion as I really just want to stop edit warring with this other user. Thanks. Xx78900 (talk) 23:40, 15 March 2024 (UTC)
- @Xx78900 Have you applied for page protection, or reported the user(s) behind the edits? If not, I would recommend both options. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 04:34, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
- The contribution was sourced and, in the context of Ireland, there is nothing wrong with being Anglophobic. Threatening a user, even and IP user, with a ban is inappropriate. 2A00:23C6:7682:F101:B9BC:7F47:C3CA:6F67 (talk) 08:32, 16 March 2024 (UTC)
Musician Redirect
[edit]A musician's article recently created underwent a review, and the reviewer decided to place a redirect to the band's article. They noted that a musician must be "notable" outside of their band. However, I'm not entirely convinced by this reasoning, and now it's causing some confusion. Anyone searching for the individual artist will be directed to the band's page, where there's no information about the person, only about the group.
The references used to create the article were from sources primarily focused on the band. However, within those citations, there was substantial information about the individual artist.
I believe the mere presence of enough references to compile an article, coupled with participation in various other projects (which can be cited and referenced within the article), should suffice? If an article is supposed to be based solely on references and they're are enough about the topic wouldn't that qualify?
This discussion brings up an interesting point. If musicians are expected to be notable outside of their band to warrant an article, it could exclude many talented artists, especially drummers or bass players, whose prominence is mainly due to their contributions within a band. In such cases, their significance lies in their role within the band rather than individual achievements outside of it. Therefore, the criteria for notability should consider the context of their contributions within the band. ChiliDog22 (talk) 17:04, 17 March 2024 (UTC)

Infobox:Classical composer
[edit]I need to refine this template to use for classical composers. Can someone add parameters to this? Thanks. Nickkontek (talk) 19:07, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- @Nickkontek do you have any ideas in mind, or are you just generally asking for more just to have them? Because it'll be a lot easier to accomodate the former. QuietHere (talk | contributions) 20:16, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- Specifically any that couldn't already be covered by adding {{infobox person}} as a module? QuietHere (talk | contributions) 20:18, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- If you don't know already, be aware that infoboxes are a source of great contention among classical music groups. Some groups take the attitude that if one doesn't already exist for an article, it is not to be added; new articles that come with infoboxes are ok. For some reason some people are very vociferous in their dislike of infoboxes (I'm all in favor of them). - kosboot (talk) 20:47, 26 April 2024 (UTC)
- I’m new to the concept of templates and the parameters they have, so I was wondering if someone can make some for this since I had no idea how to make them. If someone tells me how I will gladly develop this template further. Nickkontek (talk) 16:59, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
- Okay, but again, what parameters are you requesting? We need to know what you want to add before it can be added (or rejected if there's consensus against the idea). QuietHere (talk | contributions) 18:45, 20 May 2024 (UTC)
