This account was created in December 2010, initially with an interest in editing pages related to whisky – although my interests drift broadly. I am here to build an encyclopedia.
I am not especially expert on the subject of whisky, but I am interested in learning more about it, and I have had the impression that some of the Wikipedia material on this subject has contained errors and misconceptions. I have a fondness for trying to find objective truth and avoid incorrect impressions and marketing spin. I like to find and understand the actual rules that govern the making and labeling of the products (and where those rules apply and where they do not). I like to try to penetrate through the marketing messages to find the real facts, clearly identify the structure of who is the actual parent company that produces various products, and establish where and how they do it. I may not always get it right, but I'm trying.
Some particular whisky-related topics that I have taken a special interest in include:
- Whisky, Bourbon whiskey, American whiskey, Canadian whisky, Scotch whisky, Irish whiskey, List of whisky brands, and various related articles about types and brands of whisky and the companies that produce them.
- Straight whiskey – I created this article after noticing that this important category of whiskey had no article.
- Sazerac Company – I created this article after noticing that this major private beverage-making company did not have a Wikipedia article.
- Willett Distillery, a.k.a. Kentucky Bourbon Distillers (KBD) – I substantially expanded this article after noticing that there was not much information in it. KBD is a private family-operated company in Bardstown, Kentucky that produces several of its own brands of (mostly premium quality) Bourbon and rye whiskey and also works as a contract bottling company. This company tends to stay out of the limelight – their brands don't seem especially well known, and they tend not to put their actual company name on their bottlings. However, they have recently been increasing their profile – e.g., they rebranded themselves back to their previous name (the "Willett Distillery"), resumed distilling operations, began conducting site tours, rejoined the Kentucky Distillers Association (KDA), became an inaugural member of the Kentucky Bourbon Trail craft tour, and got their KDA membership upgraded to become the inaugural "Proof"-level member of the KDA.
- Old Forester – I created this article after noticing that it was just a redirect to the Brown-Forman article, which barely mentioned this major and historically important product (continuously on the market longer than any other brand of bourbon, the first bourbon sold exclusively in sealed bottles, and the first major product of a major (still family-controlled) spirits company now publicly traded on the New York Stock Exchange).
- Beam Suntory (formerly Beam Inc.) and Fortune Brands Home & Security – I created these articles when the Fortune Brands holding company split to create two companies (shortly after selling its Acushnet operations), before Beam was bought by Suntory.
- MGP of Indiana – I created this article (as Lawrenceburg Distillers Indiana before the facility was bought out and renamed) after noticing the importance of this low-key producer, which narrowly escaped being shut down at least twice, and now sources key products that bear the labels of various brands – especially including various rye whiskey brands.
- Emperador (brandy) – I created this article just after discovering that this the top-selling brand of brandy in the world (by volume).
- Alliance Global Group – I created this article after noticing that Emperador, Inc. (producer of Emperador brandy) had purchased Whyte and Mackay for £430m, and was surprised to discover not only that the company that made this big purchase had no article on Wikipedia, but that it was a part of an even larger holding company that didn't have one either.
- List of historic whisky distilleries – There tends to be a lot of confusing claims about the history of distilleries – e.g., with several different distilleries appearing to claim to be the oldest one in some region or other category. Collecting such information in one place may be helpful to sort this out.
Wikipedia status notes
editBourbon and other alcoholic beverages
edit- Kilbeggan at Irish whiskey and Bushmill's at Whisky need some fact support
- Merge per Talk:Single malt whisky § Merge of Single malt Scotch to Single malt whisky
- Refine the List of historic whisky distilleries
- In links to Red Bicyclette, Wine lake (which seems like a concept someone tried to introduce around 2006), and Plan Bordeaux (which seems like a related concept) – neither of the latter two seem to have any citations less than a decade old
- Talk:Alcoholic drink (or should it be "beverage"?)
- Consider this and this for the LDI article
- Consider Sku's list of distilleries and brands
- For Bourbon whiskey, remove repetitive information about being a "distinctive product", and move material out of the legal section that is not about legal requirements
- A historical marker discussion claims bourbon was named after the county, but I believe that's unproven.
- Follow up on Talk:Kirin Company#Holdings or not / Talk:Kirin Company#Requested move 19 January 2015
- Follow up on Talk:Suntory#Product category cleanup regarding Beam Suntory.
- Create (or find) an article about Alliance Global and its Emperador (beverage company) subsidiary in the beverage business (see Whyte and Mackay and Talk:Jura distillery) and its Emperador brandy, which the Andrew Tan article says it the world's best-selling brandy, and clean up ownership information in related articles.
- Create a Stitzel–Weller distillery article. See Rebel Yell, and the several articles linked therein under "see also" and Bulleit Bourbon and this remark and United Distillers (which owned the Bernheim distillery as well). Several articles already have redlinks for that important historic company
- Create a Kentucky Distillers Association article (mentioning their Kentucky Bourbon Trail and DISCUS)
- Create a List of registered distilleries of the United States (with DSP number per this (darn, that's now a dead link), this, this, this, etc., see US CFR Part 19)
- DSP-KY-1 and DSP-KY-31 for Heaven Hill
- DSP-KY-5 for James E. Pepper
- DSP-KY-78 for Willett Distillery
- Create an article to fix the redlink for doubler (distillation) in the KBD article (consulting this source as well those cited there)
- Sour mash needs citations
- Study the phenomenon of Uraguayan cognac and Armenian cognac, and edit the cognac article accordingly.
- Study this article and this oral history project and update the Buffalo Trace distillery article as appropriate
- Improve Maker's Mark based on information in Buffalo Trace Distillery
- Create an article on distillery fires, including Jim Beam (August 4, 2003, and July 2, 2019), Wild Turkey (May 9, 2000), Heaven Hill (November 7, 1996), the Bernheim Distillery (March 1896 and at least one previous fire), etc. It is clearly a chronic and continuing problem for distilleries.
- Document, somewhere, the story of which U.S. distilleries (asserted to number ten in the Isaac Wolfe Bernheim article) were allowed to continue to produce whiskey for medicinal purposes during Prohibition (incl. Stitzel-Weller and Bernheim Brothers, see also Glenmore Distillery Company and Shively, Kentucky for Early Times), and the effect of WWII on American whiskey production. The Jim Beam brand was named as such in 1933, which was during Prohibition, so how did that happen? See also Bourbon whiskey.
- But Always Fine Bourbon devotes its Chapter 2 to the subject. It says that a moratorium had been placed on production due to WWI (actually, it says WWII!) three years prior when the Volstead Act came into effect on 1920-01-17. Production was prohibited, and companies that had an inventory were required to move it to a government-controlled "concentration warehouse". Once there, it could be sold by prescription for medicinal purposes and could be sold to bakers. Bakers could buy 12 pints of brandy and rum for cooking. W. L. Weller & Sons and A. Ph. Stitzel Company (which were separate companies, but allied in some way) had a lot of inventory (and inventory receipts for product held elsewhere) and used that system. It says that six companies where granted licenses to resume production, but that only happened after the inventory had dwindled – not until 1929, just a few years before Prohibition was repealed. (Prohibition lasted officially until December 5, 1933; see the Prohibition article for the several starting dates.) Production at the Stitzel distillery on Story Avenue resumed on 1929-12-07, "among the first in the country since 1917 to produce whiskey", also producing for other distillers that had been granted medicinal licenses but were not yet ready to resume. The author's father wrote that as far as they knew, they were the first to resume production, and he didn't remember whether the distillery was operating as Weller or Stitzel. This was at Story Avenue, a site that was shut down in 1934. It produced whiskey for W. L. Weller & Sons, A. Ph. Stitzel Company, and "Whiskey was made additionally for Brown-Forman, Wright & Taylor, Bonnie Brothers, Old Kentucky, and was made by us also for H. McKenna and Waterfill & Frazier." A site in Frankfort had been planned to start the production in December, 1929, but couldn't do so because they ran out of money due to the stock market crash. Joe Beam was the distiller and Roy Beam was the assistant, and there were seven Beams working there. "Sadly, many of the smaller companies were bought by larger ones, and of the 75 or so distilleries operating at the time of the 18th Amendment, only 51 survived." (That was more than I thought – only a third weren't still around after a 13-year prohibition! How many of today's companies would survive a 13-year shut-down?)
- See the Schenley Industries article for a list of the six distilleries allowed to resume distilling in 1929.

- "The Life That I Have" (any problem?) That as pronoun (capped), adverb (capped), determiner (unknown) – capped where I found it
- MOS:SINGULAR: "the Heat are playing the Lakers tonight" (also the article about the Heat) – not when using a city name
- On prefixing and suffixing an ellipsis with a space: MOS:ELLIPSIS says to "
Generally, use a non-breaking space before an ellipsis, and a regular space after it:
"."Alpha, Bravo,{{nbsp}}... Zulu"
- As a basic point, there could be a question of interpretation here – is this just discussing what type of space to use or whether to include a space or not? Note that it doesn't directly say "
Generally, a space should be included before and after an ellipsis
. ..." - I interpret this to mean that there should generally be a space (of some kind) before an ellipsis and another space after it (at least except in cases where the ellipsis indicates that part of a word is elided, as in Roger ...felde). SMcCandlish agreed in a recent RM discussion, saying "yes, it should be 'Noise ...' not 'Noise...', per MOS:ELLIPSIS; the ellipsis fused onto the word indicates a truncated word ("Wha...?"), not a truncated sentence." Both the CMOS and the AP Stylebook seem to surround an ellipsis with spaces. See here for an off-Wikipedia article discussing ellipses and their use. It reports that the AP Stylebook says to "treat an ellipsis as a three-letter word", which implies having spaces that separate this word from others, and all of its examples are consistent with that. However, Necrothesp and QuietHere have noted that no space is actually included in typical practice on Wikipedia.
- This issue was the central question for the just-closed RM at Talk:When the Pawn.../Archives/2024/May#Requested move 11 April 2024, but the declared consensus was to not follow the MoS guidance. (It was also somewhat discussed at Talk:But What About the Noise ...#Requested move 11 April 2024.)
- English letters followed by ellipsis with no space (2053 articles)
- Space before ellipsis (79 articles)
- Ellipsis followed by a space followed by letters (887 articles)
- Ellipsis followed by letters with no space (568 articles)
- A basic observation is that there are more than 25 times as many article titles that don't prefix an ellipsis with a space as there are that do! Also, there is not a very clear preference about whether to include a space after an ellipsis (a 3:2 ratio leaning toward including a space). Some articles are in more than one of these lists, of course.
- Four dots (26 articles)
- Five dots (4 articles, all albums: Endtroducing....., An Introduction to ....., Too Many Humans....., 5.....Go)
- Not well sourced with five dots: An Introduction to ..... (self-published website has only three dots, Allmusic has "Introduction to Roy Harper", no other sources cited)
- Too Many Humans..... seems self-released and not so notable. Discogs lists several variants. All three cited non-UGC sources (Louder, Vinyl District, Drag City) have no dots at all.
- Six dots (1 article: Who Killed...... The Zutons?)

- This edit of 19 February 2020 removed the CNN example from Help:CS1, talking about italics. It was reverted by SMcCandlish on 2 January 2021. A relevant W:RfC discussion is recorded at Help talk:Citation Style 1/Archive 63#Italics of websites in citations and references – request for comment, which can be referenced as WP:CITALICSRFC. This was briefly further discussed at User talk:Citation bot/Archive 23#Unhelpful changes on 23 November 2020, and a new discussion began at Help talk:CS1#Italics 2 on 25 November 2020. Before February 2020 was this and this on 25 January 2020, which I reverted on 3 January 2021, but my revert was rapidly reverted (with a confusing edit summary).

- Talk:dbx (company) – per MOS:TM. I remain convinced that the February 2018 RM outcome is inappropriate, per MOS:TM, we should "Capitalize trademarks, being proper names; use: Nintendo; avoid: nintendo"; and the similar addidas. All-lowercase for something spelled out letter-by-letter is just as much a vanity styling as all-uppercase for something that is a word or pseudoword (TIME, KISS, ASUS, SONY Mobile, and this company's parent, which brands itself as "HARMAN, a SAMSUNG company"). Indeed, "Using all-caps is preferred if the letters are pronounced individually, even if they don't (or no longer) stand for anything," and although "Using all-lowercase letters may likewise be acceptable if it is done universally by sources, such as with the webcomic xkcd," here we do not see the sources universally using all-lowercase. Sources that use "DBX" include Electronic Design and EDN Network. (See also User talk:BarrelProof/Archive 7#Mutual interest.)

Unusual article name styling
edit(Unusual capitalizations for composition titles are listed separately below.) A sampling of unusual article names (relative to MOS:TM and WP:AT (incl. WP:TITLETM) for cases seemingly not covered by WP:DIACRITICS) – see also WP:STAGENAME – also note that MOS:TM doesn't exactly say that it applies to the titles of works, but it includes several such items as examples (skate., Se7en, and Alien3):
- Titles of creative works
- @midnight (not moved 23 April 2015; the proposal was not about the "@" symbol, although it was discussed somewhat – might be a reasonable candidate for another RM)

- (No Pussyfooting) (no discussion apparent)
- W:/2016Album/ (moved September 2023)
- Airplane!

- "Damn! (song)" (no discussion evident)
- Delirious? (no discussion evident, might be necessary for pronunciation or disambiguation)

- Love. Angel. Music. Baby. (no consensus to move 31 January 2019)

- 2 Girls 1 Cup
- "2 Hearts 1 Love"

- Face 2 Face (2012 American film)
- "Give It 2 Me" (Madonna song)
- "I Just Wanna Love U (Give It 2 Me)"
- "I Would Die 4 U"

- A/J Jackson
- B*Witched (and related articles such as B*Witched (album) and C'est la Vie (B*Witched song))
- B.o.B (and related articles such as B.o.B discography; there was an RM in 2010 that found no consensus to remove the dot, but it got unilaterally copy-paste moved and histmerged less three weeks later – I left a comment at User talk:Anthony Appleyard; there was another RM in April 2019 that restored the dot in response to a comment from me, then another RM in September 2020 that removed the dot)
- B.I.G (moved 10 October 2023)
- bell hooks
- bpNichol (moved to that title 6 February 2023)

- CCH Pounder (actress)
- Deadmau5 (and related articles such as Deadmau5 discography)
- danah boyd (tech / social media scholar)
- f0rest and n0thing (from Category:Counter-Strike players)
- GZA (has been the subject of four RMs – most recently closed August 2015, but "Gza" doesn't really look like ordinary English either, RZA seems to be an abbreviation)
- I.M
- k.d. lang (despite E. E. Cummings, although that case may not be as clear cut as it seems)
- N.W.A (and related articles such as N.W.A discography, similar to B.o.B, not moved 6 May 2015, contrast with D.O.D. (DJ) which was not moved in September 2018, N.W.A. and the Posse has the extra dot on its cover art, but was said to be a bootleg on the Talk page)
- Neu! (never formally discussed, roughly similar to Yahoo!)

- Not3s (RM failed December 2018; name hard to distinguish without the styling, sources seem to use it)
- Panic! at the Disco (RM from me failed March/April 2017)
- Shing02
- Sunn O))) (moved back and forth in two RMs in 2013)
- Tech N9ne (moved by an RM closed 2 June 2013, moved back after another RM and AN/RFC 15 July 2013 with an argument that it was the common name and had been stable at this title for a long time)
- T.O.P (moved 16 June 2020)
- U-J3RK5
- will.i.am (RM closed as "no consensus" September 2018)

- Names of companies
- 2U (company)
- 2Wire
- 4Licensing Corporation
- JPMorgan Chase (no discussion evident)
- maia arson crimew
- Mau5trap (closely related to the artist's name above)
- Net4Mobility
- POW! Entertainment (never formally discussed, roughly similar to Yahoo!)
- Tele2
- Yahoo! (not moved 10 November 2006, 29 April 2008, or 22 August 2013, no consensus to move 21 March 2015, not moved again 30 May 2017)
- Other examples from the high-tech world
Potential summarization:
- People seem relatively tolerant of strange stuff when it comes to the titles of creative works.
- People also seem relatively tolerant when it comes to the names of creative artists, in comparison to, e.g., the names of mundane brick-and-mortar companies (esp. outside of high-tech).
- It matters whether there is some alternative name available. Regarding the name of something, if those who create a name make it unusually stylized and offer no apparent alternative to the world, they can make it stick.
- Recent outcomes on move discussions for Deadmau5, Sunn O))), and Tech N9ne seem to indicate an increased tolerance for decorative character usage (at least in relation to creative artists). These seem to teeter on the edge of what is considered acceptable.
- Se7en had inconsistent usage in reliable sources, and thus seems to have fallen firmly the side of avoiding the decorative character use.
- People seem more tolerant of unusual formatting for topics relating to computers and high-tech.
- Unusual formatting is sometimes associated with trying to project a youthful or rebellious image, and its use by people perceived as legitimately youthful or rebellious seems more tolerated than its simple use in run-of-the-mill brand names (e.g. "Macy*s" or "[ yellow tail ]"). In this context, someone who removes the stylization could risk projecting an 'uncool' image of themselves.
- Omitting spaces seems like a relatively common and relatively accepted phenomenon.
- Substituting a string of unusual characters for profanity is a well-established convention to indicate "expletive deleted", and is thus generally understood and accepted.
- As long as numbers are read as numbers (instead of being substitutes for letters), they don't bother people so much. That doesn't explain U-J3RK5, but that usage is so unusual that the reader notices the strangeness immediately and either rapidly figures out what is intended or gives up and just treats the name as a string of arbitrary characters. Also, in this case, there is no alternative that seems to be available that doesn't seem insulting or uncool.
- Decorative full stops, and especially terminating full stops, are frowned upon in Wikipedia article titles, as in the "skate." example of MOS:TM and the prior RM discussions for Bakuman, Damn (Kendrick Lamar album), Fun (band), Gangsta (manga), Hat (Mike Keneally album), IMP (band), Janet (album), Kobato, Lovestrong, Mad Love (JoJo album), Melody (Japanese singer), Moon (visual novel), Ms. Vampire Who Lives in My Neighborhood, Okay (album), Respect (magazine), Shakira (album), The Goods: Live Hard, Sell Hard, They (duo), Withering to Death, Tori (album), WSJ Magazine, and Your Name. There was also no consensus to add a full stop at Talk:Crazy, Stupid, Love as of 28 April 2021. For a non-terminating full stop, see India Arie. On the other hand, we have Anderson .Paak (consistent in sources), Love. Angel. Music. Baby. (no consensus to move 31 January 2019), Portugal. The Man (no move 18 September 2017), V., and will.i.am. There has also been some controversy at Emma (2020 film) and John Adams (book), and there is Mother!.
- Avoiding all-caps seems generally agreed. Note that Oneok was moved in September 2018 after two RMs. Pvris is another example that followed later. On the other hand, there is IMP (band).
- V (poem) (RM by me due to sources) versus V. (it is an abbreviated name of an entity per the article, no consensus in RM closure of 7 April 2015) does not seem like a problem
- Sujatha Baliga was moved to conventional caps
Note:
- What is the history of "widespread use" and "significant majority ... consistently include" in MOS:TMRULES and "preferably the most commonly used version" in WP:STAGENAME?
- "widespread use" and "significant majority ... consistently use" were there at the end of 2015, 2016 and 2017
- "significant majority ... consistently use" was added in February 2015 in this edit by Blueboar
Footnote: WP:TITLEFORMAT (within WP:AT) has this: An exception is made when the quotation marks are part of a name or title (as in the movie "Crocodile" Dundee or the album "Heroes").
Quotes:
Footnote: WP:OFFICIALNAMES is an essay, not a policy or guideline.
Footnote: See MOS:LIGATURE for ligature usages, such as Synæsthesia (Canadian band).
Wikipedia does not necessarily use the subject's "official" name as an article title; it prefers to use the name that is most frequently used to refer to the subject in English-language reliable sources. This includes usage in the sources used as references for the article. If the name of a person, group, object, or other article topic changes, then more weight should be given to the name used in reliable sources published after the name change than in those before the change. For cases where usage differs among English-speaking countries, see also National varieties of English below.
WP:TITLETM (also in WP:AT):
Article titles follow standard English text formatting in the case of trademarks, unless the trademarked spelling is demonstrably the most common usage in sources independent of the owner of the trademark. Items in full or partial uppercase (such as Invader ZIM) should have standard capitalization (Invader Zim); however, if the name is ambiguous, and one meaning is usually capitalized, this is one possible method of disambiguation.
Exceptions include article titles with the first letter lowercase and the second letter uppercase, such as iPod and eBay. For these, see the technical restrictions guideline.
- Capitalize trademarks, as with proper names.
- avoid: nintendo
- instead, use: Nintendo
- Don't expect readers to know, based on trademarks or brand names, what item is being discussed. For example:
- avoid: Police in Miami confiscated 25 stolen Rolexes.
- instead, use: Police in Miami confiscated 25 stolen Rolex watches.
- however: The Prime Minister indicated that the Cadbury Creme Egg was delicious. (This is allowed because the product name includes the product type.)
- another example: The Prime Minister indicated that the police in Miami had confiscated his Apple Watch. (Avoid Apple Watch watch.)
- Follow standard English text formatting and capitalization rules, even if the trademark owner considers nonstandard formatting "official", as long as this is a style already in widespread use, rather than inventing a new one:
- avoid: TIME, KISS, ASUS
- instead, use: Time, Kiss, Asus
- Using all caps is preferred if the letters are pronounced individually, even if they don't stand for anything. For instance, use SAT for the (U.S.) standardized test or KFC for the fast food restaurant. Using all lowercase letters may likewise be acceptable if it is done universally by sources, such as with xkcd.
- Do not use the ™ and ® symbols, or similar, in either article text or citations, unless unavoidably necessary for context (for instance, to distinguish between generic and brand names for drugs).
- avoid: LittleBigPlanet™, REALTOR®
- instead, use: LittleBigPlanet, Realtor
- Avoid using special characters that are not pronounced, are included purely for decoration, or simply substitute for English words (e.g., "♥" used for "love", "!" used for "i") or for normal punctuation, unless a significant majority of reliable sources that are independent of the subject consistently include the special character when discussing the subject. Similarly, avoid special stylization, such as superscripting or boldface, in an attempt to emulate a trademark. In the article about a trademark, it is acceptable to use decorative characters the first time the trademark appears, but thereafter, an alternative that follows the standard rules of spelling and punctuation should be used:
- avoid: macy*s, skate., [ yellow tail ], Se7en, Alien3, Toys Я Us
- instead, use: Macy's, Skate, Yellow Tail, Seven, Alien 3, Toys "R" Us
- Trademarks in CamelCase are a judgment call. CamelCase may be used where it reflects general usage and makes the trademark more readable.
- OxyContin or Oxycontin—editor's choice
- however: PlayStation (This is allowed because Playstation is not widely used.)

- Talk:Dot the i (observations: here it seems arguable that the lowercase, especially for the "i", is a distinctly notable aspect of the title choice; the question of whether the 'd' at the beginning should be uppercase or not doesn't seem to have received much discussion although it's been bouncing around in the article history; the sources, per Dicklyon 11 April 2013, seem to capitalize both aspects):
- Uppercase versus lowercase 'D' has been bouncing back and forth:
- Uppercase by GHcool (article creation, 31 January 2006)
- Lowercasing by Abides (23 August 2007)
- Uppercasing by Bovineboy2008 (6 January 2013)

Nicknames in quotes
editWP:NICKNAME advises to "avoid ... adding a nickname ... in quotes between first and last name. For example: Bill Clinton, not William "Bill" Clinton.
" This guidance doesn't seem very strongly agreed for cases where the name with the quotes is commonly used in sources – especially when used by performers as a stage name. However, the use of the name with quotes seems avoided for disreputable characters, except for Talk:Raymond "Shrimp Boy" Chow, and Talk:Joaquín "El Chapo" Guzmán. (WP:TITLEFORMAT says "Crocodile" Dundee and "Heroes" are O.K.)
See also MOS:NICKNAME, which is not the same as WP:NICKNAME. Also, there is WP:NICKUSE, which is an old essay said to be superseded by MOS:NICKNAME.

On article titles for songs and albums
editPer WP:NCM / WP:SONGDAB, I generally believe that the names of artists should be included in the titles of articles about their songs and albums. That makes the titles more clear and recognizable, and avoids future maintenance headaches over whether to consider some particular song or album as primary. Including the name of the artist is helpful to readers, the popularity of music is volatile, and new releases often appear with the same names (or strings of lyrics that might be mistaken for a name). IMHO, there is basically negative value in making song and album articles more ambiguous by removing the names of the artists from their titles. In many cases, we can easily discover that there are already several other songs with the same name that are covered on Wikipedia.
Other considerations include the depth of coverage and indications of exceptional noteworthiness.
Here is a good way to search for album names.
Generally, I think that if a typical English-speaking person sees an article title and thinks, based on the title, that they know what the article should be about, that is what it should be about.
Regarding WP:SMALLDETAILS, see discussion at Talk:Want You Back (Haim song).
- WP:ALLMUSIC: Yellow. "Listings without accompanying prose do not count toward notability." (as of 2023-01)
- WP:RSDISCOGS: Rated red. WP:UGC, not a reliable source (Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Mis Favoritas (2nd nomination))
- WP:GENIUS: Yellow. Mostly UGC, no consensus on the reliability of articles
Wikiproject Albums
- Wikipedia:WikiProject Albums/Sources – "Biography/reviews are fine, but do not use genre sidebar, as it is generated from a separate source from the prose. Don't use review score when review is not present, or mention the 'Album Pick' designation." and "AllMusic's genre sidebar should be avoided. Previous discussions at WP:ALBUMS and RSN have evinced that they can be incongruous with the reviewer's prose, which should take precedent over the sidebar (e.g. AllMusic's sidebar classifies Rhythm Killers as "reggae", while the reviewer observes "no reggae in sight"; likewise, AllMusic's sidebar says that Staind includes the post-grunge genre while the reviewer says that the band "no longer sound like post-grungers...")."
Notability of music
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 21#Producers – "Most album reviews don't even mention the role of the producer. Check the reviews on AllMusic for instance. Is that an oversight?"
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 20#RFC on Discogs.com "often there are no other, more reliable sites (such as Allmusic) that provide adequate album credits and note details"
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 20#Modifications to conform with WP:GNG – "I'm honestly not sure if we take AllMusic as RS for quotes"
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 20#Sunflower Bean – "AllMusic gives their debut album Human Ceremony a thorough review"
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 19#Duplication of meaning in "criteria for musicians and ensembles" #1 – "AllMusic (a website) is a reliable source."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 19#Another suggested change – "It means that being nominated means nothing if a reliable source doesn't discuss it. ... it's just not clear and some editors assume that they're standalone criteria, which it's not. It means that a subject "may be notable", but it really means nothing if a reliable source doesn't discuss the subject. Not self-published sources. Not an entry in AllMusic that says they charted somewhere."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 17#Notability of allmusic review – "Allmusic is a reliable source and is valid in considering whether an album is notable. If an Allmusic review is all that is found then there probably won't be a basis for a meaningful article." and " I would certainly consider a PROD to be completely inappropriate for a topic which has an AllMusic review: PROD is intended for articles nobody (except maybe their authors) is likely to miss or search for, which is unlikely to be the case when the subject has gained sufficient recognition to be reviewed on AllMusic."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 17#Albums are sub-topics – "There are reviews of it giving significant coverage such as AllMusic and Christianity Today."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 17#Why so much emphasis on notability? – "I'm playing devil's advocate a bit here, but almost all of those albums nominated for deletion are not entirely unreferenced. They are listed at AllMusic or another database, and reviewed by Cross Rhythms. I'm neutral right now on whether that should be enough for an album to stay, but right now guidelines say that's not enough." and "Essentially I'm trying to raise a point that I believe, using this particular case as an example, that the allmusic and Cross Rhythms references should be enough notability for those articles to remain." and "The AllMusic entries are not references, they're track listings. An AllMusic reference needs to contain a review from a staff reviewer." and "Ah. I didn't realize that about AllMusic. But I'll still stand on my opinion on the Cross Rhythms references."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 17#Certification or chart success? A clear way to establish notability is needed. – "If AllMusic didn't have that review, I might have spent hours working on sourcing this article and only have a single independent source, ..." and "Still, if the guy from AllMusic hadn't written his review, then all of that information would still have come from one source, Billboard."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 16#Merging of non-notable albums redux – "If an album is not covered in reliable sources, and the only thing found on the album is a track listing on Allmusic, Amazon, or Discogs, there is no need to include the track list on an artist's page or its discography page."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 15#Proposed modification to Others category – "(here saved mainly by allmusic.com)"
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 15#Merging of non-notable albums – "Another option would be to delete the album article, add the basic album info in the artist or artist discog page, and provide a reference (such as Allmusic) that has the track listing and other detail."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 14#Requiring feature articles to establish notability – "While the sources listed by Michig (Allmusic, Pitchfork, Tiny Mix Tapes, Pop Matters and The Portland Mercury) are all notable music publications, with the exception of the short Allmusic bio these are not feature articles about the band per ser." and "Allmusic already exists as a database of bands and reviewers' consensus about them."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 13#allmusic – "... if an article is only sourced to this site is it enough to establish notability in afd discussions?" and "Allmusic is a reliable source - the bios and reviews are written by professional writers. If an artist/band has coverage at Allmusic they will generally also have coverage in other sources. If no coverage exists outside of Allmusic then establishing notability may be difficult, but Allmusic being the only source cited in an article doesn't mean that other coverage doesn't exist - efforts should be made to look for coverage elsewhere (before an article goes to AFD)." and " Allmusic seems to be very album-oriented, so artists without albums don't seem to get much of a look in. For recent rock and pop artists, they seem to cover a large proportion of what would be considered notable here. For older artists and artists from less mainstream genres there are a lot of gaps there. Treat it as a source like any other rather than an arbiter of notability."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 11#Tightening up Musician/Ensemble Criteria Loopholes – "Allmusic is a questionably reliable source which has been the subject of multiple debates on WP:RSN, which I see you've participated in. Lacking any other independent, reliable sourcing, it should have been deleted--that is, merged to an article with greater notability and redirected. Actually, looking at 40 Below Summer, it should probably be deleted too--the only non-Allmusic source is a trivial mention in a partial independent sales chart that doesn't appear to meet criterion #2."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 11#Notability of labels – "At present, Allmusic does not list netlabels - only labels that produce physical goods, this format is new, but highly exciting and I feel that ..."
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 9#Notability of Independent Musicians & Ensaumbles – "Currently deletionist editors tend to accept mainstream papers and magazines and allmusic.com as reliable sources only. I think music websites like www.punkbands.com, www.roomthirteen.com etc. should be accepted as reliable references." and "If you take a look at this AfD article, some editors don't even accept allmusic.com as a reliable source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Stick_to_Your_Guns"
- Wikipedia talk:Notability (music)/Archive 9#Proposed change to the wording. Need consensus. – "I'd like to add: The purpose of Wikipedia is not to build a database of all recordings that bands have ever made. Leave that to allmusic and others. The recordings/releases should first be described in the band's article - supposing they are relevant of course -, and the search box will enable users to find them there, if they don't know the band's name. Only when an album has been discussed in detail in independent sources, so that enough material is available, we should have a separate article about the album. ..."

Irish Whiskey
editIn the Talk section of the article on Irish Whiskey, you say: "I am a bit confused by this concept of a number of times that a whiskey is distilled. I can understand how you could count the number of times that a product has been processed by a pot still, but most of the spirits in most whiskey are from a continuous still. A continuous still, manufactured specifically to do so, can presumably produce approximately any desired level of alcoholic purity. The concept of a number of distillations seems rather strange in that context. Does it make sense? —BarrelProof (talk) 17:22, 24 March 2011 (UTC)" I see that you are almost totally into things American. There is a huge world outside once you leave American shores. Very few of the 82 Nation/Nation States that distil, blend or manufacture whisky use column stills. All malt whiskies come off pot stills. A quick look at https://noelonwhisky.blogspot.com/2020/04/that-peg-of-scotch.html will enhance your wide knowledge. And https://noelonwhisky.blogspot.com/2020/02/whisky-goes-global.html will show you how North Korea, handles its 40/42% ABV whiskies in 620 ml bottles, apart from a few other unlikely nations.

The Civility Barnstar | |
You deserve some Pappy Van Winkle's Family Reserve, as you exemplified patience and civility in the face of provocation, while tweaking the subject and the references. Well done! Of course, the aforesaid (at least in its 23 year iteration) is currently out of stock in most bars and liquor stores, so you will have to settle for something else. You can't always get what you want. 7&6=thirteen (☎) 01:50, 30 July 2014 (UTC) |
