message: The statement on the Jeep commercial cites a youtube video, which is probably not a great citation. Is there anyone who has access to official information on the commercial such as the vocalist and when it was recorded? On a personal level, I'd like to know that too, but feelings aside I think it's actually necessary for citations. It may be a recording that Jeep did on their own and that needs to be documented, in my opinion MagnoliaSouth (talk) 18:37, 30 January 2014 (UTC)

message: This section claims that "California Dreamin'" and "California Here I Come" are unofficial state songs, but these statements are unsourced. Someone might think that these statements were made up.    --Gccwang (talk) 05:04, 29 August 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Other non-official state songs" needs sources 

message: The earliest reference to "I Love You, California" being played aboard the SS Ancon while transiting the Panama Canal that I have found is Senate Concurrent Resolution 29 (Chapter 87), which appears on page 4442 of the 1951 Statutes of California. I've done a fair amount of research on the subject, and it is my conclusion (take it for what it's worth) that it's a myth. What's funny is that this resolution doesn't make mention of the vessel's name. That also makes me question the validity of the claim. If someone can provide an earlier reference, possibly one from 1914, please add it to the references. Blcksx (talk) 16:09, 24 September 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  Middle name of Abraham Frankenstein is not Franklin 

message: I tried looking for sources the song was played at Ronald Reagan's funeral and that of dead Governors. What I found instead was an interesting article That states " Wikipedia says confidently that “I Love You, California” is played at the funerals of California governors, but it sounds too dissonantly peppy for that. Just to check, I watched the C-SPAN coverage of Ronald Reagan’s funeral service and burial. I heard a lot of solemn and patriotic music, but I didn’t hear “I Love You, California.”
I cannot find any other reputable sources outside of Wikipedia for this, and this was largely a risk of solidifying this hoax into "fact" because now the LA Times would have said it. I plan on deleting this section of the article as a whole, because it seems like big time disinformation spread waiting to happen. BurgeoningContracting (talk) 19:52, 1 March 2023 (UTC)
