So with these concerns, I'll place the GA nom on hold until they can be addressed. All the best. The Rambling Man 12:29, 25 July 2007 (UTC)
I am suprised this hasn't come up or is in the article, but Maroon 5 the name is defintely Star Wars related from Luke Skywalker's A New Hope call sign of "Red 5." I remember Starwars.com had an interview with Maroon 5 about it. 68.9.255.198 18:13, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
I had noticed that some other band articles have dates in the section titles, so I was thinking that maybe the same thing should be done here. I checked out all of the FA band articles and here's the stats:
AC/DC, Pink Floyd, Genesis, Megadeth, Nightwish, The Orb, Slayer, and Stereolab all have dates in the section titles (8)
Sex Pistols, Fightin' Texas Aggie Band, The Jackson 5, The KLF, Nirvana, The Supremes, Timpani, and The Waterboys don't (7)
Now just cause more have dates in the section titles doesn't mean that the same should be here, of course: I was just seeing how common that was. So, think we should do it? They'd be:

Not sure why such a point about them not having the PA label on the album is being made. There is only one song on each album with the f word in it and its up to the record label whether to put the Parental Advisory label on or not. They are definitely not the first or last band to not actually have a label on even though there is a swearword or two... MarvinNi 14:41, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
I’ve gone and removed one paragraph about controversy and fact-tagged another. Overall, the two seem like they were written by people who have a beef with the subject and want to create the illusion of consensus. Yes, one of them had a cite attached, but the cite didn’t verify that there was any controversy at all; it only discussed the meaning of the song, and only very briefly at that. As an aside, I don’t have much experience working on articles about bands or living persons and I wonder if the two should have similar standards for verifiability. — NRen2k5, 19:55, 11 February 2008 (UTC)
Did The Tears of Medusa ever exist? Could someone with more knowledge on the topic deal with linking the article (get rid of the orphan tag) or initiate a deletion of the article? Thanks.-- Fisherjs 21:29, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
Maroon 5 fits the exact description for a boy band. They are, in fact, a boy band. Why was this fact removed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.208.73.163 ( talk) 05:34, 18 January 2008 (UTC)
I'm wondering if Maroon 5 is the correct spelling. I've noticed in Edition 18 of British Hit Singles & Albums (published by Guinness World Records) that the name is spelt Maroon5. Do the later editions still spell it the same? I appreciate the book may not be the definitive resource to determine the spelling, but I've also noticed that on the group's albums it appears with the book's spelling. -- Mickraus ( talk) 23:26, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Should the paragraph on this section mention that the censored (flowers) version of "This Love" was also released in the United States?

Help, somebody vandalised (or something) this page and I don't know how to revert it.
Good day all,
It does not look like it is mentioned in the article at all, but Matt Flynn started playing with Maroon 5 in Spring of 2005, although I do not think he was an official member of the band at that point. In the Live - Friday the 13th album, Matt Flynn plays the drums and Ryan Dusick was an off-stage backup vocalist on one or two songs. Anyways, I just think that it is worth mentioning that Matt Flynn was at least a "touring member" of Maroon 5 nearly over a year before he "officially" joined, and Ryan Dusick ceased playing drums for Maroon 5 in the Spring of 2005.
Thoughts?

I think that Kara's Flowers should be merged into this article. They're the exact same band with one person added when Maroon 5 started; it's just a different name. The article is also extremely short; the paragraph's content is already stated and elaborated in the Maroon 5 article and the discography could be covered in the article as well as Maroon 5 discography.
I guess either a merger or a deletion would get the same result. There are also no sources cited in the Kara's Flowers article, so it might be a good idea to either find a source for their independent/unreleased albums or remove them completely. The Fourth World seems like it's fine to be in Maroon 5, but the article for that album may need some cleanup. Hooky-i-vanisher ( talk) 02:31, 18 December 2014 (UTC)
Anyone have reliable sources for these works?

Is Sam more than just a touring member? Is he completely an official member or an unoficial member. He's in the "Don't Wanna Know" video, he's in most pictures for the V tour and he works in the studio. I feel like he may have been promoted. What are your thoughts? Zack Madden ( talk) 01:38, 10 February 2017 (UTC)
The We Like Digging? article mentions an unreleased 1998 album called Stagg Street Recordings, which is also in the discography (listed as 1997); but not mentioned in the article text, which reads like they didn't do anything together between 1997 and 2000. There is a blog post on it on Everything Kara's Flowers.
Anyone know more or have better sources? It doesn't seem like it belongs on the We Like Digging page, as it's not part of that album, and it should be mentioned here as currently there is a gap in that time period; but we could do with better sources than last.fm and a blog post.

Bowling is life, have you read what the infobox parameter states, which has been written in the hidden note on the article: "Aim for generality and two to four genres per Template:Infobox_musical_artist/doc#genre." "Infobox parameter not for every style artist has experimented with. Stick to the general genre(s) sources most commonly use to describe band." The genre parameter lists more than four genres, including related subgenres, and lists genres that the band is not commonly classified with. The band is most commonly referred to as a pop and pop rock band. As noted, the parameter is not for an indiscriminate inclusion of every genre you think the band should be linked with or that the band may have experimented with at one point or other. No infobox parameter is for indiscriminate inclusion of content; an infobox is an even more succinct overview of key features of the article subject than the lead. We don't list all the associated genres in the lead, we don't list them all in the infobox. Is there a reason you're refusing to follow infobox template guideline and WP music project custom?
