Talk:Amy Winehouse

Questionable attribution of influence
At the end of the "early life" section, a source is mentioned in connection to how Winehouse listened and was inspired by certain artists. I read the two original articles and they do not seem to mention these artists by name, and as such seems to me to be conjecture.

"She was influenced by Sarah Vaughan and Dinah Washington, the latter of whom she was already listening to home."

Whilst I agree that this is not at all implausible in her field of jazz singing, the cited sources does not explicitly mention this, and as this is a protected article I am not able to edit it myself. I am also confused by the wording of "the latter of whom" which does not seem to have any basis at all in the cited article. Gedigen Varelse (talk) 03:17, 30 January 2024 (UTC)


 * Thanks for the alert! Figuring there would be some valid influences described in sources, I looked at a few nearby footnotes and found a good interview with Access All Areas in which Amy names the singers that most affected her style. I also removed a blog post per WP:SPS. I hope my change suits your request. Binksternet (talk) 07:02, 30 January 2024 (UTC)

Media after her death
"After her death was announced, media and camera crews appeared near Winehouse's residence to pay their respects."

This is a very strange interpretation.... 2A00:23C5:6D1A:9501:97:C406:8F29:F05E (talk) 12:24, 9 April 2024 (UTC)

This was released on May 17, 2024 so why is there no entry? Rossidor (talk) 23:41, 25 May 2024 (UTC)

 * Red information icon with gradient background.svg Not done: Back to Black is a biopic film about Winehouse, not a documentary using archival footage of her, which is the distinction. It is also mentioned already here: .That said, I don't see the need for a filmography section as they use archive footage, rather than her starring in them. As examples, Freddie Mercury has no section for documentaries using archival footage, such as Freddie Mercury: The Final Act. Bowie does have Moonage Daydream (film) listed but under a subsection for documentaries, the rest of which were made during his life. I am removing that section for that reason, particularly as the documentaries are mentioned in . Irltoad (talk) 20:45, 28 May 2024 (UTC)
