[edit] Disco

This song is a hard rock song with a disco beat not dsco —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zakkman (talkcontribs) 18:01, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

According to this review at All Music Guide it's a disco song. Wikipedia is source based, so I'm going to put it back. -GTBacchus(talk) 22:34, 29 January 2008 (UTC)

Ok, so User:Zakkman and I have edited back and forth a few times over this edit. I think that it's accurate to call the song "disco", and I think that the sources support that. Zakkman's argument above is that the song is "hard rock with a disco beat, not disco". I don't think it's a big deal, but I think we should follow the source on this point. What do others think? -GTBacchus(talk) 02:33, 2 February 2008 (UTC) you know what fuck you your a pussy who aobviously hates kiss and im changing it back and thats final KISS is my favpourite band and you dont fuck with them

yes i agree the sources do support the fact that it is a disco song the facts are right in the article its self , Zakkman please refrain from your own pov getin in the way even ace frehley called it a disco song in an interview it is a disco song the band its self is hard rock so i though it was fair to leave the hard rock tag along with the disco tag but some are still cant get over it,zakkman if you remove the relevent tag of disco again you are just going to get blocked from editing from an administrator you have no arguement--Wikiscribe (talk) 19:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

I asked him on his talk page, and his only reply as to why a hard rock band couldn't make a disco song is that it "would be gay". I don't think that's a very compelling reason. I know someone who knew their original drummer, who left the band when they wanted to start wearing makeup, because that would be gay. -GTBacchus(talk) 23:52, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Possible recent vandalism

A party has stated that he does not think describing Kiss as disco is sufficient reason to remove sourced content from an article. It is not. The song, not the band, is being described, and, as is stated in the drafts of the article, the song was clearly even thought of by its writer as being effectively a disco song. Unless that party can produce sourced, verifiable information which clearly states that the sourced content is wrong or indicates that the inclusion violates other extant policies, there is, so far as I can see, no justifiable reason for the removal of the content. Please abide by existing wikipedia policy and achieve consensus before reverting again. Thank you. John Carter (talk) 18:33, 6 April 2008 (UTC)
