Disambiguation
[edit]The link ALL currently points to the ALbanian Lek (currency). Perhaps we need a disambiguation page Dori 04:16 10 Jul 2003 (UTC)
Neutrality
[edit]I can't say I know anything about this guy, I found him in a link from Travis Barker's page, I do know, however, that reffering to his band mates as alchoholics is not NPOV. I don't have time to research their actual jobs and/or consumption of alchohol, for I am going to bed now, but if anyone does have any idea about their jobs, please correct if you could. --72.12.30.143 05:42, 21 August 2006 (UTC)
Split section
[edit]Why? Bubba hotep 19:25, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
Sorry, let me further expand on that. Why should the discog be split off from the main article. It would mean a main article of eight lines and some links and another page with a massive list. It may as well stay where it is until someone expands the article. Bubba hotep 19:42, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
I see that the discog section was removed wholesale. I have put it back in. I am willing to agree a compromise, but let's talk about it here first, shall we? Bubba hötep 08:17, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
I have trimmed the discog down to include only entries which have an album article on Wikipedia. Bubba hötep 12:07, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
From 1970-1975 he was married to Jill Biden <ref>https://www.scmp.com/magazines/style/entertainment/article/3268957/who-jill-bidens-trump-supporting-ex-husband-bill-stevenson-he-just-spoke-out-against-her-and-joe<ref> — Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.27.229.136 (talk) 07:29, 11 August 2024 (UTC)
Tumor, blood clot, diabetes
[edit]Here is a link to an interview in which Stevenson discusses the health problems he had in 2009–2010 which resulted in his decreased musical activity during that period, several serious medical conditions that could have killed him, and how it led to the Descendents getting back together for the shows they've done recently. Seems like important info that should be added to the article. --IllaZilla (talk) 10:15, 18 July 2011 (UTC)
Archived link for the above interview, since the original site doesn't exist anymore. I still think this is important info to add to his biography. It's also discussed in detail in the recent documentary film Filmage. --IllaZilla (talk) 08:47, 27 January 2015 (UTC)
-Thanks for that. Not to sound too nitpicky, but don't all tumors grow "unknowingly" until they're discovered/diagnosed? I mean, who would "knowingly" grow a tumor, honestly? Recommend deleting the word "unknowingly". — Preceding unsigned comment added by FiggazWithAttitude (talk • contribs) 15:35, 8 June 2018 (UTC)
Discography
[edit]The discography is pretty long and should probably be divided into "Performance credits" and "Production credits". Yes there will be some overlap between the two, but it will be more useful this way since Stevenson's production credits are as extensive as his performance ones, if not more so. --IllaZilla (talk) 00:29, 4 March 2012 (UTC)
Completely redoing the page and moving Selected discography to own page.
[edit]I have plans others I hope can help with to make an actually article for Stevenson. As in, personal section, career, biography and more. There's so much information on this guy not in here. Most of this page is filled with Selected discography that's really better for another page since it just looks spamming. Something like Butch Vig production discography a fine example of what I want to do.

Title
[edit]Rather than Bill Stevenson (Musician), shouldn’t this be called Bill Stevenson (American Musician) to distinguish it from the Canadian musician? 47.139.46.124 (talk) 00:43, 22 July 2024 (UTC)
