Bad editing

Just had to cleanup some poor editing made by Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars on that article. As I have said before to this user please always express a greater sense caution, regard and discretion in your future editing altogether. Woojy88 (talk) 22:10, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Please explain specifically the poor editing. I removed citations attributed to a statement which I removed because it was not relevant to this article. You'll have to explain to me how that is "poor editing". Assume good faith. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 18:10, 18 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Cleaned up some poor editing again made by Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars on the article Earth, Wind & Fire Horns. You should always place the year of an album's release next to the album itself. This would avoid one becoming confounded about the recording date and the issue date of an album.Khloa44 (talk) 14:31, 21 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Merge

~~I agree with the merge proposal. The "solo works" section can simply been adapted to be a "list of album appearances" section. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 16:56, 5 October 2018 (UTC)~~ Moved comments to Talk:Earth, Wind & Fire#Merge proposal.

Well the article Earth, Wind & Fire Horns meets several notability guidelines within Wikipedia:Notability (music) under the heading "Criteria for musicians and ensembles". At first under point 1 of the criterion as the horn section "has been the subject of multiple, non-trivial, published works appearing in sources that are reliable, not self-published, and are independent of the musician or ensemble itself". Additionally under point 6 which states that it "is an ensemble that contains two or more independently notable musicians, or is a musician who has been a reasonably prominent member of two or more independently notable ensembles." This article also meets point 6 of the criterion being "has performed music for a work of media that is notable, e.g., a theme for a network television show, performance in a television show or notable film, inclusion on a notable compilation album, etc." With this being so the article Earth, Wind & Fire Horns is thus notable in accordance to these stipulated guidelines and shouldn't be merged into the article Earth, Wind & Fire whatsoever.

~~This isn't a question about notability, it's about the information in this article being better suited within another article. Starcheerspeaksnewslostwars^{Talk to me} 21:02, 5 October 2018 (UTC)~~[reply]
