Talk:Roy Head

message: I am going to start trying to make new references for content on this page.  The process for doing so seems very complicated to me.  I have some 3rd party URLs but, I am not clear on how to write the code (or whatever its called)  I'll give it a shot.  The page would more than likely be more appropriately named "Roy Head and The Traits."(70.112.115.67 (talk) 00:33, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

The result of the move request was not moved. Perhaps the article should be split into two, with one devoted to Roy Head and the Traits as a musical group, and this one devoted to Roy Head the person. -- Aervanath (talk) 20:12, 9 May 2009 (UTC)

According to this, he died from a heart attack. Can this be added? MikaelaArsenault (talk) 22:18, 21 September 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: It can be added if you find a better source.  That seems to be user generated, and therefore wouldn't fall under WP:RS.  I looked for sites reporting his death.  The best I could find was the Houston Chronicle, but it doesn't list the cause of death.  78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 03:08, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

text: I think the Commercial Appeal can be used as a reliable source.  However, it doesn't mention the cause of death.  I would consider Best Classic Bands to be a weak source, but usable in limited circumstances.  (Anyone with knowledge about these sources please jump in!)  However, BCB's statement on the cause of death seems to be based on hearsay, and certainly not rigorous reporting.  I still wouldn't add it.  So, what is the most compelling information in the Commercial Appeal article you'd like to add to the article?  78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 13:16, 22 September 2020 (UTC)

text: Per my previous statement, I don't think we should use that information from Best Classic Bands.  I asked what information from the Commercial Appeal, which looks far more reliable, you'd like to add.  78.26 (spin me / revolutions) 13:34, 22 September 2020 (UTC)
