Talk:Hanson (band)

message: Here's the situation with redirects and disambiguation (dab) pages:
* MMMBop is a dab page directing to MMMBop (album) and MMMBop (song)
* MMMBop (album) is a redirect targeting Hanson (band)
* MMMBop (song) is a redirect to Mmmbop
My suggestions as to actions:
* There does not seem to be an album named "MMMBop", so I would suggest that this redirect page be deleted via 
* the content of Mmmbop should be moved to and redirected to MMMBop and tagged with 
* MMMBop (song) should be redirected to MMMBop without an R-tag
I think it's best that I leave it to people who are more familiar with the topic to refine, advance, or reject this proposal and act upon it if that is desired. Regards, Courtland 15:47, 26 August 2005 (UTC)

replies: text: That would be fine. You'd just upload it to WP or Commons under a free license. I have a number that I've taken as well, but the good quality ones of the whole group are from almost 7 years ago. If yours are more recent than that (and they are indeed your pictures that you have the right to release), then by all means...please! LaMenta3 18:29, 13 March 2007 (UTC)

Support Merge.   Jtmichcock 14:00, 14 February 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree.  Unless the Hansons release solo projects, they should be redirected to this article.  If a member has any notable biographical information independent of his brothers (is married, has a child, etc) it should be included in this article. --buck 15:07, 14 February 2006 (UTC)

message: Changes made to the personal life section should only be made if the content is verifiable by a legitamate source such as a news article or official release, or is common knowledge within the fan community. I say this because the band members are very protective of their personal lives and as such, information based upon speculation, rumor, or stalking (this includes unauthorized access to MySpace pages!) is an invasion of privacy and is inappropriate for any venue. That said, I am changing the statement regarding Isaac's supposed engagement for a final time and will leave it to other reasonable people to maintain this stance until such time that a change in this information can be VERIFIED.

Actually you can buy it off Ebay, but it ain't cheap!

thread_title:  Noah Knows Best Episode 

message: Hi. I'm a bit concerned on this page about the reference to Zac's son:
"...and Zac's son John Ira ("Da Crunk Shep")."
Please correct me if I'm wrong and this is some sort of family inside joke I'm not aware of; if the child's parents choose to nickname their toddler "da crunk shep," I'm not trying to intervene  —— unless for some reason the child was actually getting "crunk"...then I'd be concerned. Admittedly, I'm a longtime fan, but but my interest in Zac, Taylor, and Isaac's personal lives is pretty much nonexistent compared to the attention I paid when I was 11. But I read the Hanson wiki page for the first time in years today, and I couldn't not say anything about that unedited, uncited "nickname" on wikipedia.
I'm just leaving this comment in case somebody who DOES know can clear this up. If weirdo on the internet was making up a "RapperThatDoesn'tKnowHowtoSpellThe" nicknames for any couple's young child and posting it to Wikipedia, I'd have to bring it up regardless of who the parents are or what my knowledge of the toddler's nickname was.
Either way, I hope this helps.

message: Firstly, "charitable acts" doesn't sound encyclopedic. Perhaps this should be changed to "Philanthropy". 
More importantly however, this section seems to have irrelevant/unexplained content:
1) "Hanson toured South America, Mexico, Brazil, Argentina and Europe and performed their first full electric shows in Australia during the 2005 "Live and Electric" tour."
This doesn't show how the tour was a "charitable act"..in fact, the way it is currently written seems to hilariously/condescendingly imply that them touring South America/Europe/Australia is "charity" on their part. 
2) "The Walk tour was suspended after Isaac underwent lifesaving surgery for a pulmonary embolism.[37] Doctors treated his condition by relieving blood flow restrictions caused by excess chest muscle and scar tissue from the repetitive motions of guitar playing.[38] The tour resumed with Midwest and East Coast dates March through May, 2008.[39] The brothers wrapped up the second leg of "The Walk Tour" after playing 20 concerts in four weeks."
Not sure how having medical/health issues is a charitable act. And again, current content doesn't show how this tour was "charitable". 
The above content, if irrelevant, can probably be relocated to the Band's History sections. I'm not familiar with the band, so I didn't change anything, in case the above content is in fact relevant but the actual "charitable" part was just not explained. Hopefully someone with more knowledge about this band can clean this section up.
