Talk:Unwritten Law

message: I can't find a site to verify, but I remember them being performers on an episode of "Super Sweet 16".Can  anyone find something?
:Yes I remember this too, a quick search for "Sweet 16 Unwritten Law" revealed a tv.com listing of all their show credits. Here is the tv.com page I'm not sure if thats a violation of copyright, I'm sure you could find more sources. That episode was titled 'Jacqueline & Lauren' and it was Season One, Episode One.--Token2k6 (talk) 12:36, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: So can this be added under a 'Triva' heading or perhaps 'Under Music in film and video games' but also add 'tv' or 'television' to the heading? I think it is valid. If trivia is fitting, I've got one about how Blink 182 mentions UL in their single Josie. I'm sure there are more. --Token2k6 (talk) 12:49, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Trivia sections are discouraged, so in other words, no, don't create a trivia section. Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, so we should avoid creating lists of miscellaneous information. If you believe the information to be notable towards the band's wider success or exposure, then feel free to add it with reliable sources into the actual article. k.i.a.c (talktome - contribs) 13:28, 10 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I know Trivia are discouraged, so are 'References in Pop Culture' but they are so fun! I mean, as long as its factual and can be proved, I don't see anything wrong with entries like this to increase one's knowledge on any subject or be able to throw something out in conversation, but that's fine, I can live with it. I would let whoever started this topic add it, but since they didn't sign and its probably only an IP addy that suggested it, I guess I will go ahead and add it under my suggested heading, as well as changing that heading by adding 'tv' in there. Also, I may not need an external link b/c this article List_of_My_Super_Sweet_16_episodes lists it and even mentions UL right on S1 Ep1. --Token2k6 (talk) 14:26, 10 July 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Super Sweet 16?

message: I was a little upset when my statement about Scott Russo and Big B's 2009 single Sinner under recent activity got removed: IllaZilla (Undid revision 300983180 by Token2k6 (talk) it's not an unwritten law single & therefore isn't pertinent here.) Ok, I understand the validity of the fact that its not a single by UL per se, however, the single involves the front man for the band. The lead singer of a band is almost inherently the backbone of that band, or could be singled out as the most important. I would understand if I was talking about say a guitar player playing with another band, however, when the main voice behind the band uses that voice to collaborate with another artist, then that is worthy of mention. And also when this single peaked pretty well and was a great single to kick summer off. Perhaps if Russo had his own page, it would be more appropriate there, but he doesn't. --Token2k6 (talk) 12:47, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Whether it was a "great single to kick summer off" is entirely irrelevant here, but I digress...the point is that this article is about Unwritten Law, the band, and thus it should only cover releases by the band. A single member (Russo) collaborating on a song by an entirely different artist (Big B) isn't pertinent, and it isn't part of UL's catalog. We wouldn't list his side project with Aimee Allen, Scott & Aimee, in the UL discography now would we? Since it seems that Russo is forging a musical career outside of UL (with Scott & Aimee and now collaborations w/ other artists), it might be pertinent to start a separate article on him. Mention of the single would certainly be pertinent there. But putting a blurb abouut it here is akin to listing "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" in the No Doubt discography. --IllaZilla (talk) 18:03, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
