Talk:Set It Off (band)

Untitled

In response to General Ization reverting the edit changing 'Set It Off' to a singular noun in the opening sentence, I would like to propose that it be changed back because it refers to the band as a unit and thus should be treated as a singular subject. The predicate nominative of the sentence, band, is singular. Also, almost every Wikipedia article about a band refers to it as a singular noun (with a few exceptions which came out of consensuses reached in discussions). --Peter Dzubay (talk) 04:42, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

As I noted on your Talk page, the majority of Wikipedia articles concerning bands refer to the band as a collection of musical artists, and thus treat the name of the band as a plural noun. They go on to refer to the band as "they" and to use phrases such as "the band consists of" which reinforces the fact that a band is reference to a collection, not a unit. While there are inconsistencies on Wikipedia, I provided you with some highly notable examples on your Talk page, but I'll do it again here: Led Zeppelin ("were" not "was"), The Beatles ("were" not "was"), Yes (band) ("are" not "is"), The Rolling Stones ("are" not "is"), Genesis (band) ("are" not "is"), and many, many others. While you may prefer to think of it another way, there is ample precedent to support the notion that a band name should be treated as a plural, not a singular, noun. At the very least, if you change "are" to "is" in the first sentence of the lead here, you should take the time to make the changes consistent and change all references to "they" in the following sentences of the article to "it", along with "their" to "its" (which I'll think you'll find causes the article to read rather strangely, for the reasons I've just explained).

With a singular predicate nominative typically comes a singular subject. You stated that "the majority of Wikipedia articles concerning bands refer to the band as a collection of musical artists" while a collection is a singular grouped noun. Nearly every article about a band (such as Relient K, Green Day, Fall Out Boy, Panic! at the Disco, Blink-182, +44, Paramore, and As It Is) refers to it as a unit because each article is about the band as a whole, not the individual members. --Peter Dzubay (talk) 05:49, 29 June 2015 (UTC)

I don't know what to put here

I suggest that Cody Carson receives a page of his own, or at least has a scenario where when you click on his name link in the Set It Off page, it directs you to Carson's Youtube channel. Currently, when you click on his name link, it redirects you to the Set It Off page. This is similar to Austin Kerr's name link, except I don't know if Kerr has a Youtube channel or account, please let me know if he does. Karmasdoor (talk) 07:01, 25 October 2019 (UTC)

I just realised Austin has a Wikipedia page... I never knew he had one until 2 minutes after posting this discussion. 🤦🏻‍♀️ Karmasdoor (talk) 07:06, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
