Figure Drawing Album[edit]

My changes were reverted twice because someone doesn't believe me, but Josh Joplin has a new album called Figure Drawing. It's credited as Josh Joplin and Among the Oak and Ash. He sold it at the concert in Atlanta last week. It was supposed to be released widely by now but got pushed back a few months for some reason. A February 10th Facebook post on Josh Joplin's page mentions it:

"Hello Everyone... OK LONG POST eek! Sorry. It's been a while but I have new music coming out. The record's called "Figure Drawing" - I made it with my band Among The Oak & Ash. It features a couple of wonderful friends, Wes Langlois Music, Hannah Miller, Jack Schneider Music and some #joshjoplingroup alum. It's all original music and a slight departure from the other records and I'm really proud of it. In the coming days, weeks, months, I'll be posting more updates here, and every other platform. I'm gonna tour this summer. We will be playing songs from the new record as well as the old tunes. It's gonna be a lot of fun and I'm really looking forward to it!"

And on March 10:

"This is my brilliant co-hort Wes Langlois (Wes Langlois Music)... He never stopped encouraging me to return to music. We pretty much made 3 records together over the years but this one finally stuck! Thank you so much Wes. The world is a better place cause you're whistling right on through it! The new album is called Figure Drawing and it's coming out May 1. Listen to the title-track single streaming everywhere March 15th."

He mentions it in episode 46 of this podcast: https://www.wsbradio.com/on-demand/popcast/

He mentions it in a Facebook post about re-recording Better Days for the new album (it's called Late Night, Early Morning). I can't link it, but it's there.

I'm not really sure what more references I need than the artist himself saying 4 different times, but it's a real album. — Preceding unsigned comment added by GamblinMonkey (talkcontribs) 03:01, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@GamblinMonkey, you are being disingenuous, which calls into question your whole enterprise. I clearly told you here that I do believe you, so stop misrepresenting my motives.
"What more references" you need to provide is something a reader can link to—and unless I'm mistaken, that doesn't include podcast episodes. Revirvlkodlaku (talk) 03:25, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Look, I got annoyed that you reverted my initial change and said "that's just a single, not an album" because that's incorrect. When I tried to talk with you about it on your page, you got angry with me. I'm sorry that's not the right way to communicate about something like this. I've added small edits to Wikipedia for years, but I don't interact with other people on it for the most part.
I didn't realize the standard for adding an item to the discography is having a reference for it, since the others on there do not have references. I thought since he'd been talking about it for months on social media and radio and podcasts, his descriptions for his upcoming shows talk about it and he has already sold it to the public at his shows, it would be fine to add it. I didn't know it was going to cause a fight.
This whole interaction of me trying to help by adding a little information that wasn't on the page blowing up onto a fight has convinced me to not edit Wikipedia in the future. It's just not worth the time or energy. Do whatever you want, I'm done. -GamblinMonkey (talk) 12:54, 19 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
