Talk:John Brown's Body (band)

message: Pandora's bio says the band is "named after the abolitionist," as per the song of the 
same name.  It could also be viewed as a play on the Sheriff from "I Shot The Sheriff."
If anyone has ever seen the meaning asked of the band in print, a citation/note would 
be good.  (140.232.0.68 (talk) 18:49, 24 May 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Origin of Band Name 

message: I have finished doing cleanup for a majority of the page, fixing most of the grammar, information styling, and the links provided. However, there are several notes for the page after editing it:
1. More research and information needs to be provided. There are a few gaps in the information.
2. Fix paragraph as best as possible; the fifth paragraph under this [] I left alone because the information and grammar is too bad that I could not improve it. Please redo this paragraph or remove it to make the article better.
3. CITATIONS! A lot of this information needs a source/citation, and I marked most of the areas requiring such on the page with a  tag so that other editors may contribute sources (such as news sources.)
4. Empty heading; I left [heading] empty because there was no information between 2010 and 2013 (read note #1 above) provided for me to redo.
5. Recent information; there is no information on JBB after 2013, so that's worth noting.
6. Band Members; most of the band members do not have an article, so they could receive one.
That's it, those are all of the notes I have about this article after my edit, please remember you may revert my edits if my edits are not necessary, KnowledgeIsGoodForYou (talk) 14:25, 20 February 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cleanup 

message: I am opting to remove the confusing/unedited passage as it doesn't really add to the narrative -- even then, the band history still needs to be presented in a clearer fashion. Dano67 (talk) 22:18, 28 February 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  additional cleanup 

message: In the list of past members there is a link for Josh Newman that takes you to the major league pitcher, Joshua Paul Newman.  That is incorrect.  The Josh Neuman (different spelling) that was in JBB was a musician and currently a music industry executive.  <ref>https://www.linkedin.com/in/josh-neuman-2050216<ref>
In the history of JBB there should be some mention of The Tribulations, as JBB spun off from that group.  <ref>https://rootfire.net/the-tribulations-80s-reggae-band-from-ithaca-ny-sow-the-seeds-of-john-browns-body/<ref>

thread_title:  COMMENTS 

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :John Brown's Body (band)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "Billboard":
From Passafire: 
From Ennio Morricone: 
From Tribal Seeds: 
I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 06:41, 9 April 2021 (UTC)
