It seems some bands, usually metal and hard rock bands, have timelines. Are edits like this needed: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Chevelle_(band)&diff=1061528067&oldid=1061523810 five members, with only the bass guitarist changing over time? It's clearly described in the prose. Then there's the question of predicting the future. This timeline assumes to know what the membership will be in May 2022.

Any opinion on whether music downloads that are available to Patreon supporters should be considered a single? https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=The_Choir_(alternative_rock_band)&curid=91126&diff=1069765967&oldid=1069418485 Walter Görlitz (talk) 00:21, 4 February 2022 (UTC)Reply[reply]

A former drummer of Christian band Casting Crowns died in July, 2021. Anonymous editors were adding the simple fact to the members list at the time, and without a source. It was my understanding that we 1) needed a source, and 2) do not list deaths in the members section, instead, if it is notable, we add it with a source to the prose only. It is now in the prose and sourced. In a recent edit, an established editor added it back and I removed it. The editor opened a discussion on the talk page: Talk:Casting Crowns. Additional discussion there (or here) would be appreciated for clarity or correction. In other words, do we want the following to appear in the members section?

Not every single, album, music video or just announcement of new album/single has meda attention so as I understand it is impossible to add music video directors from official YouTube channel, new album announcement from official Facebook profile and release date of very first single which was self-released in artist store like Bandcamp or it's just old CD album? CD album for credits is also a primary source? On the other hand we are allowed to use Apple Music or Spotify etc. release pages as reliable sources for release date.
