Hello, I'm C.Fred. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Brent Smith, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources, or if you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. —C.Fred (talk) 03:17, 18 December 2019 (UTC)


 * How do I site it?? It’s not listed. Only inCD inserts. So, how can I site that? Attentionshinedown86 (talk) 00:13, 19 December 2019 (UTC)


 * Here's the thing. There's a citation in the article to his publishing listing that shows Brent as his first name. We'd need a source of better quality to override that, and "it's on the liner notes" doesn't quite measure up—especially since artists are known to stylize their name in the liners, while the publishing listing is more likely to be a legal/given name. —C.Fred (talk) 01:17, 19 December 2019 (UTC)

So, how would I prove this? Take a picture and post it??? Attentionshinedown86 (talk) 03:55, 20 December 2019 (UTC)


 * All that would prove is how he credits himself in the liner notes, not what his full name is. —C.Fred (talk) 14:26, 20 December 2019 (UTC)

It either says B. Smith, or in the back, along with all the other members, the first, middle, and last name. Attentionshinedown86 (talk) 21:18, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
