Stefano vs Steven

According to newspapers in Italy reporting a visti of Steve Tyler in his granfather village in Calabria , appears his name to be STEFANO not Steven.

His grandfather Giovanni Tallarico, Steven grandfather, leaves from the province of Crotone , a village name Cotronei along with three brothers. They arrive in the te United States. It is the late nineteenth century and Giovanni is a young musician in search of fortune. Once in America he get married and transmits his musical passion to his son Vittorio, which creates a small band and become a piano teacher. Vittorio Tallarico is father to Steven/Stefano Tallarico. And Tyler in the article uses the name of Stefano- — Preceding unsigned comment added by Melchisedech (talk • contribs) 15:36, 15 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Steven Tyler lived at 5610 Netherland Avenue, Bronx NY in Riverdale.

Harmonica

He played a lot of harmonica during his career and should be listed as an instrument. AdamBendelow (talk) 22:19, 30 December 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Major sourcing issues

The part of the article covering the period from 1970 to 2000 in Tyler's career consists of 14 paragraphs of text, some of them quite lengthy and dense. Those 14 paragraphs contain 3 footnotes. Just saying. Amandil21 (talk) 06:10, 5 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Holcomb - balance needed

The bit on Julia Holcomb seems designed to exculpate Tyler. Here it says she became his ward to avoid him being arrested as he crossed state lines. She also says he pressured her into the abortion. We need some balance. Malick78 (talk) 08:53, 14 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Grandfather, Felix Blancha

This edit contradicts the sources on which the statement is based. Before the edit, the Polish nationality of Tyler's grandfather was indicated, and the source details that his grandfather regarded himself as Polish (On the ship's manifest, Felix claimed Bobruysk as his hometown. Bobruysk is now in Belarus, but his paper trail clearly indicates that he regarded himself as Polish ). So that edit, as well as its summary, is completely misleading, and does not fit the information from the source. --5.167.164.57 (talk) 08:02, 1 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
