Talk:Christopher Tignor

Links to notable music journalism
The following are active links to music journalism on Christopher Tignor and his work from notable sources. It's a sliver of what's out there but hopefully sufficient. Ideally, some or all of these should be integrated into this page in order to better support the claims therein. I won't do this myself to avoid a conflict of interest. Chubbles has already discussed that Tignor is notable (via the Western Vinyl releases) but these will help give the claims on this page more authority:

New York Times album review of Tignor's "Core Memory Unwound".

Remove issues templates?
Hi ! Read your notes here & over at User talk:Ctignor, & there were clearly major issues... I replaced any interview "sources" + net total added ~25 citations, fleshed out the discography, rewrote for tone, removed extraneous images, & eliminated redundancies. Normally I'd take down at least some templates at this point, but I haven't added sources for *everything*, & given the back-&-forth on this one wanted to check in. Thanks! // Knifegames 22:02, 16 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I'll take the tags down - this is actually over-cited at this point, in my opinion, since things like album titles do not need verification from The New York Times and Pitchfork to be included. Chubbles (talk) 16:16, 17 December 2020 (UTC)


 * Chubbles – Awesome, thanks piles for that + letting me know about overciting; I need to more thoroughly look into wiki standards for discographies... // Knifegames 22:39, 17 December 2020 (UTC)


 * There has been some effort to demand that there be third-party published sources for things like the names of albums, which are themselves published works. I see this as a citation arms race that is pure make-work and is not useful, but opposing it makes me sound like I am against WP:V or something. It's unfortunate.
