I've been making a few careful copyedits to this article, which I hope have improved a few things. I notice that the footnote style is very erratic and could do with sorting out. I can do that if there are no objections, but I wanted to bring it up on the Talk page first as it's quite a big alteration to the article. I'm talking about using the sfn template for pulling in all the repeated source citations, e.g. Doug Hinman's book is cited a massive 66 times (!) with full citation details, where a brief sfn link down to the cited book in the Sources section would suffice. The article currently contains only two short format links (Rogan 2015 refs. 34 and 93), whereas the Rogan 1998 refs (40, 56, etc.) are bare footnotes. There is no consistency and I'd really like to get it sorted! Incidentally, I'm fairly sure this issue could lead to a FAR notice. Regards, Rodney Baggins (talk) 12:01, 1 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
I thought about converting the mess to sfn myself, but it seemed like quite an undertaking. If you are willing to do it, that would be fantastic. We could also split the work, if you'd like. Tkbrett (✉)12:11, 1 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

I was removing some genres from the infobox I found unnecessary due to the encompassing nature of the "rock" and "pop" listings, but I accidentally got rid of the lead image and do not know how to return it. I'm really sorry Ded Meem (talk) 04:36, 25 February 2024 (UTC)Reply
