[edit] GA Re-Review and In-line citations

Members of the Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles are in the process of doing a re-review of current Good Article listings to ensure compliance with the standards of the Good Article Criteria. (Discussion of the changes and re-review can be found here). A significant change to the GA criteria is the mandatory use of some sort of in-line citation (In accordance to WP:CITE) to be used in order for an article to pass the verification and reference criteria. Currently this article does not include in-line citations. It is recommended that the article's editors take a look at the inclusion of in-line citations as well as how the article stacks up against the rest of the Good Article criteria. GA reviewers will give you at least a week's time from the date of this notice to work on the in-line citations before doing a full re-review and deciding if the article still merits being considered a Good Article or would need to be de-listed. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact us on the Good Article project talk page or you may contact me personally. On behalf of the Good Articles Project, I want to thank you for all the time and effort that you have put into working on this article and improving the overall quality of the Wikipedia project.

[edit] Guest act on Tool album

Maybe Rollins' addition to the Tool album Undertow should be mentioned somewhere.

[edit] Results of Good Article Reassessment

As a result of a lengthy (2 month!) discussion at WP:GAR, no consensus was ultimately reached as to this article's GA status. This article has remained on GAR so long that many of the earlier comments, whether to keep or to delist, refer to an article that is so different from what the article is today that it is impossible to determine consensus at this time. Please keep improving the article, especially in the following areas:

  • Expansion (Rollins' TV and Film work is quite missing from the article; the article seems to beg more here.)
  • Referencing (any new information should be well referenced to reliable sources using appropriately formatted inline citations)

Please note that the archiving of the Reassessment discussion (found here: [1] ) is not an endorsement of the article as perfect; not does it prevent another reassement from happening in the future if this article is found to need fixing. Please continue to improve the article; it would be nice to see it featured some day... --Jayron32|talk|contribs 16:52, 1 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 2.13.61

I'm wondering if Rollins' publishing company, 2.13.61, precedes the breakup of Black Flag (the article says he formed it afterwards). A friend purchased one of his books at a Black Flag concert (circa Feb. 1986), and I remember the book said "2.13.61" on it. However this may have been the actual title of the book, not the publisher. -- Gyrofrog (talk) 21:10, 8 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] LSD?

I'm surprised that the website says this, because Rollins is infact Straight Edge, right? —Preceding unsigned comment added by JAStewart (talk • contribs) 18:04, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

straight edge barely existed in 1981
You may be confusing Rollins with Ian MacKaye. Rollins has never (from what I've read) been straight-edge. CloudNine (talk) 21:16, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
Rollins hates drugs, but he's not straight-edge. He did drugs as a member of Black Flag primarily due to peer pressure. WesleyDodds (talk) 23:55, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Image

Can't someone find a better image? Pit stains isn't exactly flattering. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.210.129.142 (talk) 17:41, 14 March 2008 (UTC)


The current Image is wrong, isn't it? That's not Henry Rollins... at least not the one this article is about. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.52.80.31 (talk) 08:42, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Garfield

I see many instances of him being refeeared to as "gafield". Thoguh correct it would be much more benifical to readers to refear to him as "rollins" БοņёŠɓɤĭĠ₳₯є 00:52, 22 April 2008 (UTC)
