I'm with the opinion that the present content of the section "Vocal profile" is NOT appropriate. It is entirely the opinion of one person running a website analyzing various singers, and is thus extremely subjective. It might be better if the one running the site actually posted credentials, e.g. being a voice teacher, etc. but the writer is completely anonymous. The puts in doubt the credibility of the analysis to begin with.
Rather, I believe the section should contain content that can be pieced from various articles/interviews, such as her deliberate use of vocal breaks, the deliberate use of the whistle register in her album as discovered by Star Records, influences to her singing style, etc. All of these can be found in articles that can be readily cited, and these articles typically source Morissette directly, e.g. during interviews.
Can anyone care to give their thoughts on the matter? I have refrained from editing out this section until I hear thoughts of other people. Hwi Noree ( talk) 14:35, 15 March 2017 (UTC)
User:Jaspergeli added Category:Singers with a five-octave vocal range and the phrase "Amon has been touted to have the vocal range of five octaves and two notes recently (B2–C8).<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PLATmQYAxss</ref>". This replaced an earlier claim, "Amon has been touted to have the vocal range of four octaves recently (C3-B7).<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGi7UD5MfF8</ref><ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0a37_feT0tc</ref>" Fan-generated collections of clips on YouTube are not reliable sources. Until reliable sources can be found, that claim and the category ought to be removed. -- Michael Bednarek ( talk) 01:47, 6 April 2019 (UTC)

Why isn't this article called Morissette Amon? -- Ssilvers ( talk) 06:07, 31 October 2022 (UTC)
The article says that in 2020 Morissette "debuted at number 7" on "Billboard's Next Big Sound" chart. I deleted the stuff about "first female OPM artist to do so", as the sources do not seem to say that. Moreover, our Next Big Sound article seems to indicate that this is not a Billboard chart. If it is a chart at all, but not a Billboard chart, why is it noteworthy? Where can this chart be accessed, and who says that it is of encyclopedic significance? If we cannot show this, then we should remove the information about it. -- Ssilvers ( talk) 15:56, 29 August 2023 (UTC)
I have removed some of the non-notable awards. User:Phoenixupdate, why are the Push Awards notable? Listing all these audience/non-notable awards makes the article weaker. Alternatively, you could move the awards stuff to a sub-article like this one. -- Ssilvers ( talk) 21:35, 3 October 2023 (UTC)
