thread_title:  External links modified 

message: I've read the hiatus sections and I see continual performances by the group. That's not what hiatus means. And how was this sourced? I see the discussion about it raises the same question. Doug Weller talk 12:51, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: They have officially gone on hiatus and have solo careers. They occasionally perform a song together, usually when either TobyMac tours near one of the other two or Newsboys do the same. They have also been known to contribute to the recordings made by the others. There have been two official events together though: boat cruises. The rest are attempts at fans to make their activity seem more than just passing activity. Walter Görlitz (talk) 16:40, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  confusing. Is there a source for "official"? Thanks for the explanation, it's pretty clear fans have been busy editing this page. Doug Weller talk 19:08, 3 November 2018 (UTC)
replies: text:  Probably. At the time, they were the biggest name in the Christian music industry and it was widely publicized. I'm sure you can find one. For now        all discuss the hiatus, (Google search "DC Talk" hiatus" in news section) which apparently started in 2002 according to one source I just read, after the tour they did to promote their album, Solo.

thread_title:  Hiatus disputed 

message: This section just reads like a trivia list. Anyone opposed for me to delete most of it and summarize most of it? Something like this:
"Since their hiatus, DC Talk has released a few singles together, including title(year) title(year)... etc. Members still often show up at each other's shows and cover DC Talk songs. They also have performed together at event in year, event in year, and etc." 
Maybe the section can be merged into the end of hiatus.Awsomaw (talk) 17:01, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree that it's a trivia list, but do agree that it does need to flow better. Walter Görlitz (talk) 18:49, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I've reworded the whole section to address flow and pov issues. Awsomaw (talk) 18:06, 24 December 2018 (UTC)
thread_title: Changing the "Reunions and developments since hiatus (2000–present)" section 

message: I would rather seek concensus first but I think instead of trying to cite this dubious assertion (I believe that both Sandi Patty and Andraé Crouch and the Disciples were first depending on your definition of "contemporary" Christian music), I think a solid case could instead be made for them being the first Christian RAP group to air on a late-night talker.GBrady (talk) 09:32, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Sandi Patti's appearance was in 1986. I do not know whether Crouch did. The qualification is "one of". I seem to recall that Amy Grant would have appeared on late night by 93 as well. Walter Görlitz (talk) 16:25, 14 September 2021 (UTC)
