I'm not sure why the addition of Thomas Robinson as the touring guitarist of A Day to Remember keeps being removed. This is an accurate change as he toured with the band from 2003 to 2007 as well as with several other bands over the years. I noticed he had been left off of "former members" and made an addition. Not sure where the vandalism appearance came from. I would like to see this oversight corrected but I have added it twice and had it removed both times. Perasite (talk) 06:03, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
 * I didn't see anything about a Thomas Robinson in A Day to Remember, so I would like to see some sources for this. Also, make use of the edit summary next time. Adding a band member is not exactly a minor edit.-- 猛禽22 •• 06:35, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

He wasn't a studio band member and was not added that way. He toured with them as a fill in guitarist on the road only. Hence wy I listed him as "touring guitar" Perasite (talk) 06:44, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Source please.-- 猛禽22 •• 06:46, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure what source to provide other than I saw them live, met them (Thomas included) and have photos with them. Where exactly does one find out who the touring guitarist of a band is other than to be at the concerts or ... wikipedia? Perasite (talk) 06:59, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

Also keep in mind I am not trying to list him as a current band member as he is not currently touring with them. He has not toured with the band since roughly May of 2007 as far as I know. Perasite (talk) 07:03, 31 January 2010 (UTC)


 * If you can't prove it, refrain from adding him.-- 猛禽22 •• 07:49, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

I have photographic evidence from several concerts. Alternatively I could give you a couple of phone numbers for the band members if you want to call them. How would someone "prove" a TOURING only member of a band? You never answered thqat for me. I am getting very frustrated because I want to see wikipedia as accurate as possible but it seems like more "this actor is gay" gets through and less factual background. I mean how would one list that a certain person was a roadie for a band in the past or something... not like they are credited on a CD since they did no studio work. Thomas Robinson went on tour with tem early in their indy label career because he was the roommate of Tom's (regular guitarist) best friend and filled in at some venues as well as joined them on stage o play a few songs at many tour locations. I have seen them many times over the years as they are local to me and he was a huge part of their early years. I'd just like to see him get credit where it is due is all. Why is this such a big deal to you? I am not editing current members or anything here. Perasite (talk) 08:22, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
 * If it really is impossible to prove, then it is a non-notable addition. Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information.-- 猛禽22 •• 08:26, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Take no offense, but you could be making this up for all I know. That is why I hesitate on allowing unsourced and questionable edits that I cannot prove on my own.-- 猛禽22 •• 08:28, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

The same applies to adding him to Trivium (band) - I can't see any documented record of this guitarist, so please don't add him again unless you can point to some. Thanks. ~ mazca  talk 15:59, 31 January 2010 (UTC)

How about a phone number for some of the band members? I'd be happy to have them call you and verify it alternatively. I'm not sure why i is such a big deal for you guys that I want to see this amazing guitarist that toured with them get credit but you may also want to go strip other bands of their touring members. For instance trivium has another touring member listed... better go remove him. How exactly was that one verified... or Dave Grohl touring with multiple bands before foo fighters was formed. He never recorded with them and wikipedia is the only mention I have seen for it... better go delete half his entry. Please point me toward the proof on these other people or I ask that they be treated the same way.Perasite (talk) 21:52, 31 January 2010 (UTC)
