Notability

I just looked up this artist. The notation that the subject may not be notable enough is absurd and needs to be removed. Just as a simple indicator, a search on the unique name in quotes pulls 73,000 hits (not that this would even be necessary to prove anything relevant).

I'm seeing this notation more and more on subjects I look up. Why such zeal to remove subjects? People need to step back and take the time to become informed about a subject before racing to remove it just because they know nothing about it. Xerlome (talk) 18:38, 16 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Xerlome is right. The artist appears to be notable. There are still other issues with this page that can be fixed. TritonsRising (talk) 10:44, 17 February 2015 (UTC)[reply]

60.251.50.16 edit reverts

Hi, whoever 60.251.50.16 is, if you happen to see this! Your various edits are being reverted because...

Some of the content you're adding is plagiarized. (...I originally said that it was from a source that is unreliable, but I shouldn't jump to that conclusion without looking more carefully!)
Your edits aren't following Wikipedia's Manual of Style for the lead section opening an article. The lead should be an introduction & summary; it doesn't make sense to have a paragraph on the genre of "brutal prog" at the top of an article about a person.
I'm not sure what "policy" this falls under, but the "instrument" section of the infobox isn't for every instrument a person has ever played.
You're... sometimes wrong? Walter does not play contrabass; Brandon Seabrook does play on Shattered Dimension.

I appreciate your enthusiasm, because it's reminded me to clean things up here––but if someone undoes your edits, please don't put them back again; I just took down the issues template from this page! Knifegames (talk) 07:01, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Discography

Earlier I had added a more fully-formatted version of the Luttenbachers discography w/ personnel, instrumentation, etc., but I'm realizing WW is probably going to need a separate discography page... so for now I'm working on those more detailed listings in a sandbox. Apologies, too, for organization or lack thereof; I've just added 70-80 releases & it's still nowhere near comprehensive, not sure how collaborations / co-led bands should be split up, etc. Knifegames (talk) 07:36, 28 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]

To add to article

Basic information to add to this article (in order to help make it more properly encyclopedic): how/when he got his nickname "Weasel." 98.123.38.211 (talk) 22:55, 31 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
