 * Thank you @AngusWOOF - first time article and trying to absorb a lot of information. Can you direct me to an example of a musician article that exemplifies an encyclopedic style, and an example of a specific verifiable independent source? 2600:6C50:77F:C22C:D40A:4A71:552:3B52 (talk) 17:32, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Look for musician articles rated GA or FA, like on this list: https://wp1.openzim.org/#/project/Biography_%28musicians%29/articles?quality=GA-Class&importance=Mid-Class
 * Verifiable independent sources would be articles written in newspapers/magazines that cover the person but the writer did their own research on the person and not relied on just the artist's words said in an interview. I recently posted some suggested articles at Talk:Mel Brown (drummer). AngusW🐶🐶F  ( bark  •  sniff ) 18:14, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Many thanks, doing more research. Appreciate you. ReadWriteRead (talk) 20:32, 14 January 2023 (UTC)
 * You can also see Bayli (singer), notice how she has a lot of interviews and writeups with music media. AngusW🐶🐶F  ( bark  •  sniff ) 16:55, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
 * May thanks. I see substantive publications like Rolling Stone, Billboard, but also a considerable number of reviews. Aren't reviews essentially opinion and not encyclopedic? Trying to understand the distinction. Thanks again @AngusWOOF! ReadWriteRead (talk) 18:41, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
 * Reviews from reputable critics and their websites can help towards the first criteria in WP:MUSICBIO. If it's random stuff from random blogs or Rotten Tomatoes / Amazon, then not really. AngusW🐶🐶F  ( bark  •  sniff ) 20:10, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
 * @AngusWOOF You're so helpful! Thank you. Will find better verification sources per that list at WP:MUSICBIO. ReadWriteRead (talk) 21:39, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
