Untitled[edit]

This page should stay, I've been waiting to see it for a while. You can check their Myspace [1], or their Single "Black Mags" on iTunes here [2]. Oh yeah, and I fixed up the page making all the people and stuff in it clickable, and added the album and myspaces and stuff like that. Dislecksik (talk) 00:17, 30 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have also been waiting for this page.Do you know what the name of the EP that Black Mags is on.I think its only been shown in the Rhapsody commercial when he first puts it on.Parralax (talk) 00:01, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Edit:Nevermind just saw its on the page nowParralax (talk) 00:03, 8 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

A note to potential reviewers...[edit]

I know YouTube is cited as a source—this was only to get the page view statistics, nothing more. --Kakofonous (talk) 15:26, 8 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GAN on hold[edit]

Ref 1: You don't need to say Allmusic and All Music Guide. Same thing.
"Music Festival, on 15 July 2007.[6][1]" - put 1 before 6
"They have been and currently are on tour," - Recentism. Just say they toured.
"is featured in a late 2007 Rhapsody TV commercial, along with Sara Bareilles.[10] In the same year" - keep past tense consistent

Done. Wouldn't be so short and sweet if they'd been around for more than a year...or are you talking about your review? Cheers anyway, --Kakofonous (talk) 13:30, 23 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Was talking about the article (and the review, come to think about it, though I'm sort of embarrassed by that :P). Cheers, dihydrogen monoxide (H₂O) 07:17, 24 March 2008 (UTC) (oh yeah, passed)[reply]

totally flossed oout[edit]

back when totally flossed out had its own page, there was a citation on there that explained that it wasn't an ep but a fan made compilation of songs that were floating around the internet. anyone know where this went/how to change the article to reflect this? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.194.147.32 (talk) 01:13, 5 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It's technically a bootleg, so I'll make it seperate on this page.Bognan72 (talk) 03:39, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Copyright violation?[edit]

I can't be sure, but it looks more likely to me that the MySpace page copied this Wikipedia article than the other way around. Is there any way to confirm that? --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:32, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I noticed that the MySpace page says "Member since 4/11/2008." So I checked the April 8, 2008 version of this page, and it looks a lot like what is on the MySpace page now. Since the MySpace page wasn't created until after that date, the MySpace page must have copied Wikipedia rather than the other way around. --Metropolitan90 (talk) 03:36, 10 June 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Sir Michael Rocks Solo[edit]

Sir Michael Rocks Solo Career[edit]

Mikey Rocks now also known as Sir Michael Rocks, is launching a fruitful solo career beginning with "the Rocks Report" and followed by premier politics. I believe this solo debut and SMR solo career should be referenced in the article.

genre[edit]

Until there are any citations for any of the genres in the infoboxes, I don't see why cherry-picking is beneficial. I can find sources for calling them "hipster hop" but feel no reason to provide any because none of their other genres are cited. So, take them all out, or leave them all in? I started this discussion before your last revert, by the way. Icarus of old (talk) 16:41, 31 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

The Cool Kids discography[edit]

Support split - Discography section is close to one third of the page and should be split to a new article entitled The Cool Kids discography. --Jax 0677 (talk) 20:07, 18 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
