[edit] Redlinks

If an article is not likely to be created, which I believe to be the case for Stiffed, XXXchange, and Clifford Moonie Pusey, then wikipedia encourages the links to not be made per wp:red. Correct me if I am wrong, but I wouldn't want these links to go on for months without articles.--travisthurston+ 17:02, 18 March 2008 (UTC)

she says new wave, dub and punk —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.29.254.104 (talk) 17:35, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Of those three, the Rolling Stone link is probably the most valid. Please format the additions so that the genres are keyed to citations (like the other footnotes in the article). Chubbles (talk) 17:37, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Please note that if you do not do so, and people continue to edit-war over the genres, I'll remove them again. Chubbles (talk) 17:38, 22 April 2008 (UTC)

Genres and influences are two separate issues. Other important point : the following terms Punk, New Wave, Post-punk are used for bands of the late 70's and 80's. So, one doesn't use them for a music created in 2008. Influences that new-wave bands had on her can be mentioned in the main article, it would be relevant, but one doesn't have to place them next to genres. Carliertwo (talk). 15:56, 30 may 2008

[edit] Capital letters in musical genres

Per this, musical genres should not be capitalized. I have reverted the changes made to capitalize them. --Kakofonous (talk) 13:12, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
