List of Red Hot Chili Peppers band members
did most of the work on this - she just asked me to take a look at it, help a bit, and FLC it. So I did while she was away :P Here goes... Dihydrogen   Monoxide  ♫ 03:28, 18 November 2007 (UTC) Agree with below. Dihydrogen  Monoxide   ♫  09:27, 20 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Support as major contributor. Regards, Ne ra n e i   (talk)  03:29, 18 November 2007 (UTC) Withdrawing this. It needs much more work.  Ne ra n e i   (talk)  22:46, 19 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Comment - Could have pictures: The lead could have this awesome pic, there are also free images of the current members individually (go to their respective articles) and even for some former ones like Navarro etc... These individual pics could be placed next to the time period where they first joined the RHCP. Isn't Discogs a user-added website; hence unreliable?

 * Uneasy Comment It seems pretty much as complete as an article such as this could be, I suppose, but I'm weary to support since it's so basic. I know that's not much of a criticism, but bear with me here.  I think what would help this article immensly is some sort of graph outlining the members.  Mainly since some members have been in the band throughout, though Frusciante has come and gone.  Unfortunately, for the life of me I can't fine a good example of one of these graphs.  I know there's some out there on wikipedia somewhere, but I just can't find any good examples yet.  The only one I can find is at Oasis (band), but it looks terrible: like the artist just discovered Correl Paint or something.  If the article is so finely tuned to be as to-the-point as it is, I would expect multiple ways of expressing the same very limited data set.  I'm not being very articulate, but hopefully you can understand my point. Drewcifer (talk) 10:36, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * A-ha! Found a good one: Wilco. Drewcifer (talk) 10:52, 18 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Comment. I find the lead irrelevant to the list. the current one would best suit Red Hot Chili Peppers discography. Instead what would be relevant is information about why some members leaft or returned, which one stayed the longer, which one had the most impact... In addition, I don't see a need to parantesise the years, they are on a column of there own. CG (talk) 11:27, 18 November 2007 (UTC)


 * Comment I agree the lead is irrelevant. How about adding why members left? Where new members came from? Peanut4 (talk) 00:00, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
 * Oppose - Being a significant contributor to everything Red Hot Chili Peppers, I really question the substantiality of this list. Not many people would look to this for scholarly view; much of the information here does not even need a source. It is common knowledge that Frusciante re-joined in 1998 and that Navarro let in 97. Furthermore, the only reason this list exists is because there's simply not enough room at the Chili Peppers article, otherwise all this information would be there. A small enough graph could, ideally, be put on the band's main article perfectly but the existing table is not appropriate and far too big. NSR 77  TC  01:33, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
