Talk:The Soul Stirrers

POV
I added the POV tag. For just one example - "In retrospect, Sam Cooke seems like a perfect and obvious replacement for Harris, but he had some pretty big shoes to fill. Sam worked hard to emulate Harris's vocal style. Harris claims to have spent time training Sam Cooke to be his replacement but this is debated by several sources." The basic requistive of adding verifiability badly needs addressing. Thanks,

Errant Recording Info
"In 1936 Alan Lomax recorded the Soul Stirrers for the Library of Congress's American music project under the Aladdin Record label." This is certainly incorrect; in 1936 Alan Lomax was recording for the Archive of Folk Song under the aegis of the Library of Congress; this was would we would call a "field recording." Aladdin was a commercial label based in Los Angeles which was not launched until 1945; The Soul Stirrers began to make records for them in May 1946, in Chicago. There is no relationship between these recording projects.Pinikadia (talk) 04:05, 1 November 2010 (UTC)Pinikadia

Plagiarism/Copyvio
For all of its existence this page has more or less been a straight copy-paste of this page http://www.singers.com/gospel/soulstirrers.html 49.2.12.239 (talk) 04:21, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
 * Nice spot (rather belatedly)! But I think this is actually a case of that site plagiarising Wikipedia, and I've outlined why here: Wikipedia talk:Copyright problems. Regards, Buttons to Push Buttons (talk | contribs) 14:29, 20 August 2011 (UTC)

removing POV tag with no active discussion per Template:POV
I've removed an old neutrality tag from this page that appears to have no active discussion per the instructions at Template:POV:
 * This template is not meant to be a permanent resident on any article. Remove this template whenever:
 * There is consensus on the talkpage or the NPOV Noticeboard that the issue has been resolved
 * It is not clear what the neutrality issue is, and no satisfactory explanation has been given
 * In the absence of any discussion, or if the discussion has become dormant.

Since there's no evidence of ongoing discussion, I'm removing the tag for now. If discussion is continuing and I've failed to see it, however, please feel free to restore the template and continue to address the issues. Thanks to everybody working on this one! -- Khazar2 (talk) 13:23, 9 July 2013 (UTC)
