 * @DoubleGrazing Hello DG, I appreciate referencing the band's website is not a reliable source. However, is a reference to their output in Discogs not reliable/noteworthy enough? Thanks. 46.208.210.168 (talk) 16:14, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Hi,
 * There are two separate but related issues here.
 * Firstly, you need to establish that the band is notable, which (per WP:GNG) usually means citing multiple independent and reliable secondary sources with significant coverage of it. Neither of the sources cited meets this GNG standard.
 * Secondly, all the information must be verifiable by reliable sources. The band's own website can be used to verify basic, non-contentious information such as the band members. Discogs is user-generated and therefore not considered reliable; again, you can probably use it to verify something quite straightforward, but not any claim or statement which someone might wish to question or dispute.
 * Best, -- DoubleGrazing (talk) 16:23, 20 July 2023 (UTC)
