Honeydog albums
This is the text from wp:notability (music) regarding albums:

"An album requires its own notability, and that notability is not inherited and requires independent evidence. That an album is an officially released recording by a notable musician or ensemble is not by itself reason for a standalone article. Conversely, an album does not need to be by a notable artist to require a standalone article if it meets the General notability guideline.  Album articles with little more than a track listing may be more appropriately merged into the artist's main article or discography article, space permitting."

The pages for Honeydogs albums that you created do not meet this criteria which is why other editors have been making them into redirects to the honeydogs page (which also is of questionable notability). You need to stop turning them back into articles. They should be redirects based on the guideline, unless you find multiple, independent, secondary sources that cover the album only and not the band.

Honeydogs
I had to revert some of your additions to The Honeydogs page. Most of the material was copied straight from the sources. This is a violation of copyright policy. Also, please read the policies on puffery and conflict of interest. Keep in mind when writing that the style has to be encyclopedic and present facts with reliable sources and should not be overly promotional of the subject. AdventurousSquirrel (talk) 20:02, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

Thanks for the update, I am slowly learning all of the rules that go along with updating sites, it's a little more in depth than I anticipated. Are my sources not reliable then?

Mahlebronjames (talk) 22:50, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

The sources are probably fine; it seemed like they were just describing the band's history. The problem was that the content added in the article was exactly the same as what was in the sources. It's best to "summarize source material in [your] own words" -WP:PARAPHRASE. But be sure to keep it neutral and not add puffery or peacock terms. Those pages linked should give you some more insight. Hope this helps. Are you related to the band in some way? AdventurousSquirrel (talk) 17:44, 28 March 2012 (UTC)

Yes. I work with the bands manager and am helping to fix all of their online resources because we got slammed for our wikipedia page being well.. lame. Thanks for your help, I am going to try again to rewrite it, I'll take a look at those links!
