[edit] Fixed the singles section

A lot of the singles were out of order, had incorrect peaks (e. g. #2 for "Lost And Found", which was actually a #6), etc. I went back and fixed the singles list. (And as a bonus, all of the songs - with the possible exception of the Christmas songs - are in chronological order, too.) 68.188.191.9 19:36, 10 February 2007 (UTC)

anybody know the significance of "Tulsa City Limits"? Is this a club? If it means nothing but the geographic location someone please take it out... A. J. A. DeWitt 21:16, 24 Apr 2004 (UTC)

[edit] Reverting Question

I just reverted what I thought was vandalism to the page...but if not, please revert. Thanks!--ViolinGirl^♪ 21:46, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Content of article

The article seems to be very light on information about Brooks and Dunn as artists, both as individuals and as a duo, and heavy on inconsequentials. Is it really necessary to have all of the songs from their albums listed? Willbyr 19:23, 27 March 2006 (UTC)

Okay, I've tried to add somewhat to it based on my limited knowledge of Wikipedia expectations and only casual-fan knowledge of Brooks & Dunn. I also agree that the list of all the songs from all their back catalog is ridiculous. I feel slightly bad about removing someone's hardwork, but if someone can't justify it (with reference to other artist pages which, as far as I can see, do NOT do this), then I shall be forced to take the knife to it! Hope I improved it.

• It looks better with the added info. I think that only the songs which were released as singles should be noted from their albums.Willbyr 02:09, 27 April 2006 (UTC)
• Since the album contents have been edited down to only the songs released to radio then shouldn't the Singles section be removed since it is now basically repeating what is already listed. I myself thought that the listings of all the songs from the albums was fine, no matter if other artists wiki's don't do it, but since they are now edited out the singles section really isn't necessary.

[edit] Split

Although I'm the fool user who merged Kix' and Ronnie's pages to this one in the first place, I would like to know: Does anyone think that their pages should be split back off again? Both Kix and Ronnie seem to have enough standalone notability to warrant separate articles, in my opinion -- especially now that the former is a nationally syndicated radio host.

[edit] POV tag

This concerns POV tag cleanup. Whenever an POV tag is placed, it is necessary to also post a message in the discussion section stating clearly why it is thought the article does not comply with POV guidelines, and suggestions for how to improve it. This permits discussion and consensus among editors. This is a drive-by tag, which is discouraged in WP, and it shall be removed. Future tags should have discussion posted as to why the tag was placed, and how the topic might be improved. Better yet, edit the topic yourself with the improvements. This statement is not a judgement of content, it is only a cleanup of frivolously and/or arbitrarily placed tags. No discussion, no tag.Jjdon (talk) 18:30, 29 April 2008 (UTC)
