== Some advice regarding genres == |
|||
I've noticed your many talk page comments recently concerning the genre of bands or albums. Genres are generally decided by looking at what [[WP:SOURCES|reliable sources]] had to say about an artist/album, not purely through editor opinion. You'll probably find numerous discussions of genres on the talk pages of articles about popular bands or albums, and most of them never go anywhere...many people seem willing to give their ''opinion'' on what genre a particular artist/album should be assigned, but very few seem willing to find or present sources that support that opinion. The best way to approach genres in music articles is to look for a section in the article discussing the style of the artist or album. See if there are sources there describing what genres the thing falls under. If there aren't any, find some. If a style section doesn't exist, gather some sources and write one. Then make sure that the infobox matches up to what the section says and what the sources support. --[[User:IllaZilla|IllaZilla]] ([[User talk:IllaZilla|talk]]) 20:31, 5 March 2011 (UTC) |
