Unsourced death

If you want to list her as deceased, we will need evidence of this. News of a fatal car crash that does not specify her by name will not suffice. —Guanaco 19:40, 27 May 2017 (UTC)

It still is not sufficient today. --AntiCompositeNumber (Leave a message) 22:34, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

why she is the best

she really tries her best to be there for her fans which she calls family because if it weren't for them she wouldn't be where she is today . I personally love her as a singer and a person in general she is a great role model and even though some parents don't approve of her gloomy lyrics I love them . if they actually knew what the meaning was behind them then they would love them to . take her new song "Wish you were gay" aka "wywg" a lot of people are getting offended by this song by only reading the title ,if they listened to this song in more depth they would know and also if they did their research because this song actually isn't "new" it was writing 3 years ago about a boy who billie was madly in love with but he didn't feel the same way and she just wishes he was gay so that he would have a real reason not to love her back instead of just "not being his type" I feel that if everyone knew who they were hating on they would feel bad so please stop making remarks you don't even know are true or if you don't know the whole story . thank you Ilovebillie (talk) 22:51, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

Request for edit, March 3rd, 2019

In the last line of the opening paragraph, she is credited as having a platinum album through the RIAA. This is not true, verifiable through the RIAA's website. Please change "Through the RIAA, Eilish has seven gold and two platinum singles, along with one platinum album." to "Through the RIAA, Eilish has seven gold and two platinum singles.".


She does have an EP which sold at the level of RIAA-certified platinum albums (see EOS comparison), but the RIAA doesn't give Silver/Gold/Plat Album certifications to EP's even if they are of album length, so calling her a "RIAA Platinum album selling artist" is incorrect.

'Stylized as'

Almost every song title in this article is referenced with a "corrected" presentation and Stylized as note with the actual title. What is the reasoning for this? I understand Wikipedia has certain guidelines for this, but don't those generally apply only to article titles? Even there I think they would only demand capitalizing the first letter in a title of a work. I don't see any references to "I Would Die For You (Stylized as "I Would Die 4 U")" on the Purple Rain article, for a counter-example. Walkersam (talk) 18:08, 11 February 2018 (UTC)

Sort key

Resolved

I took a look at the Billboard and BBC articles cited as reference, and they use "Eilish" on second mention of her. That tells me that functionally, in her stage name "Billie Eilish", Eilish is her last name—and she should be sorted in categories under E, not B. —C.Fred (talk) 16:34, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Allegations of being an "Industry Plant"

Recently, there have been some claims on various corners of the 'net claiming that Billie Eilish is, in fact, an 'industry plant' (i.e. system was rigged in their favour). Would this be best discussed in a new section, separate page, or...?

Thanks. Zer0thenumber (talk) 03:07, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

Hi, thanks for your question. But first of all, per WP:BLP, which applies to all of the Wikipedia, even on a talk page you can't make (or even just describe, as you are here) allegations against a person without providing a ref. I'v provided one, otherwise I would have had to scrub your comment. It's OK, a lot of people don't realize this about WP:BLP
(Here's a ref, it's the Chicago Reader which, enh... it says "I've seen the term used against [person], Billie Eilish, [person], [person], and [person]. ... 'I think that a lot of people understand that the term doesn't really hold much weight.'"
on the merits, no, I wouldn't include it. Sounds like it's just gossip. Even including it descriptively ("Some people say...") gives it too much credence and kind of spreads the rumor, or at least the existance of the rumor, which casts a shadow on Eilish I suppose... per WP:BLP we only want to do that when we really have to. Herostratus (talk) 14:30, 4 April 2019 (UTC)

First artist with a Numer 1 album born after 2000

This source doesn't make clear that this applies only to the American Billboard chart. For example, Marcus & Martinus (born 2002) have had multiple no1 albums in Norway and Sweden since 2015. I have corrected the line in the article, but is there are more accurate source available? — Preceding unsigned comment added by M.T.S.W.A. (talkcontribs) 18:28, 5 May 2019 (UTC)

Unnecessary content

Some of the content contained within the page seems unnecessary to include. Which kinds of music she listens to and the artists that she wants to collaborate are both too personal and too subject to change; the way her brother writes music for her should either be moved to his page, as it isn't really about her, or removed; and the quote about her style doesn't really add anything to the article and almost reads as promotional. Benmite (talk) 15:57, 7 June 2019 (UTC)

Lapadite77, discussion here would be good. Benmite (talk) 16:24, 8 June 2019 (UTC)
Lapadite77, if you could comment on this here on the talk page, that would be good. Benmite (talk) 00:32, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

I did not see this discussion before. Benmite, how she and her long-term, close collaborator write songs is very relevant. As noted in their interviews, she and her brother collaborate on everything. Eilish has spoken about his involvement in her music and how they write songs, as he has also done. The commentary from both is relevant. The music that inspires her is also relevant to her article; she has talked about being a big fan of rap/hip hop music and Tyler, the Creator influencing her. Lastly, her image/style is discussed in media and her own commentary on it is relevant, especially as it is related to her commentary from her Calvin Klein ad. Lapadite (talk) 02:07, 15 June 2019 (UTC)

Thank you for replying. While I agree that much of what you listed could be considered relevant information as of right now, my main concern is that it is either subject to change or that its wording or placement feels off. For example, what kind of music she listens to doesn't seem quite as essential as what music inspires or has inspired her, and from the articles cited, it seems like the artists you listed are all inspirations for her to some extent. People's music tastes also change rather quickly, especially in the age of streaming, but an artist's musical and stylistic inspirations shape the foundations of who they are as an artist. In that case, I don't think it's entirely unnecessary to include that Eilish takes inspiration from hip-hop and R&B music and uses elements of it in her fashion and music, but it should be stated as such instead of merely saying that she listens to those people, if that makes sense. Furthermore, although I agree that Eilish's own commentary on her style is relevant, I think the article as is encompasses what she's said thus far about her style quite well. I think shorter quotes about her style are good, but I think a longer quote which basically says what's already been said might come off as redundant. Benmite (talk) 17:13, 16 June 2019 (UTC)
Ok, I'll incorporate these changes. Lapadite (talk) 15:22, 18 June 2019 (UTC)

Ukulele?

For a while, the infobox listed the ukulele as an instrument Billie plays. This information has since been removed despite the fact that this photo (which is included in the article) clearly shows her playing an ukulele. Can the ukulele be put back into the list on the strength of this image alone, or do we need a reliable source?--Vaporgaze (talk) 09:04, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

The instruments section usually refers to instruments that are routinely used by an artist, so a more reliable source than the single image would probably be needed. However, the ukulele is an instrument she's played on enough occasions that I assume it wouldn't be hard to find sources to back it up.Benmite (talk) 14:51, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for the information. I would happily add the ukulele to the list, but I can't find any sources.--Vaporgaze (talk) 17:47, 9 June 2019 (UTC)

Vaporgaze and Benmite, I also tried to find any sources that would list ukulele as one of her primary instruments. Would any of the following sources be appropriate?
  • i-D ("Back home, Billie practises her old ukulele, hangs with her dog Pepper and plays the song back to her mom.")
  • The Nation ("Both her major recording projects have a DIY quality, with just a few instruments—mainly piano, guitar, ukulele, and synth—")
  • Rolling Stone ("As for Eilish, she wrote her first song on the ukulele at four,")
  • HappyMag ("7 tracks that owe their success to the humble ukulele")

Modeling: Career or endorsement?

Since Eilish signed to IMG Models, would her modeling gigs (e.g. fronting an MGM campaign, Calvin Klein commercial) be considered a part of her career or would it be considered an endorsement, since she is primarily a singer? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Benmite (talkcontribs) 22:34, 12 August 2019 (UTC)

I agree! I don't think it's right to call her a model in the first line of this article. A celebrity should never be called a model unless she worked as a model before she became a star (which can hardly be the case here). Jorgenjorgenjorgen (talk) 21:03, 20 August 2019 (UTC)

Genre

"girlsareawsome.com" is not a high quality music source to cite for infobox main genre(s). WP:RSMUSIC: do not use AllMusic genre sidebar. Avoid WP:SYN. Cite reliable source(s) that unambiguously classify music under a genre ("hybrid blend", "bridge gap" are not unambiguous classifications); AllMusic only states "indie electro pop"; "electro pop" is the genre to cite to AllMusic. Lapadite (talk) 02:06, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

Then Electropop doesn’t count. It literally said "…blends ethereal indie electro-pop with dark thematic tones." Billiekhalidfan (talk) 02:39, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

Sure. I only leaned toward counting it as it doesn't say it blends electro pop with another genre. Lapadite (talk) 03:06, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

I mean, you could count it. I personally think they all can count even if it says the genre is blending with something else. Billiekhalidfan (talk) 03:19, 16 August 2019 (UTC)

Splitting her awards and nominations

I'm opening this discussion for the user Another Believer, who split off the small awards and nominations section to List of awards and nominations received by Billie Eilish. I reverted this as I disagree and because per WP:SIZESPLIT, the section is too small to necessitate splitting at this time; the section contains just six small tables, and four of those tables have just one entry each. This article is still under 50 KB, and even if it were over 50 KB, these awards are too few and insignificant to have an article solely for them. It's just not worth making a separate article for in my opinion. Do others think this necessitates splitting off to a separate article? Ss112 13:48, 1 September 2019 (UTC)

Thanks for starting a discussion. For the record, here was the latest version of the awards list before you redirected, so editors can review. Also, just a matter of time before she receives some Grammy noms and other music awards.

@Another Believer: Didn't you notice the history of List of awards and nominations received by Billie Eilish? The user Fortune Mabena created content at a misspelt title ("recieved") and the history was merged with the article you created in draft and had moved over my redirect. Did you not request Anthony Appleyard perform the histmerge? Ss112 16:04, 27 September 2019 (UTC)
Ss112, I don't think so, but I don't remember exactly. I guess I'm less concerned about the page history and just wondering if you're fine with the existence of the current list. If so, this discussion is essentially over since you're the only editor who has questioned the list's necessity. ---Another Believer (Talk) 16:07, 27 September 2019 (UTC)

Eilish isn't her last name (it's O'Connell), so why is it used to refer to her throughout the article? Billiekhalidfan (talk) 00:46, 9 November 2019 (UTC)

Why is O'Connell used inconsistently? GenacGenac (talk) 13:20, 27 January 2020 (UTC)

Eilish is infact her stage name and she prefers to be called that. It is the name she is professionally known as therefore we should adress her as Billie Eilish. Jill granger394 (talk) 12:54, 14 February 2020 (UTC)

Instruments

Yes, I understand the Template:Infobox musical artist/doc#instrument isn't a WP:COATRACK. She's notable for her piano playing which is why in my opinion thought to include it. [1] Her Ukulele use wasn't something I'd known, but is used. [2] "Known for" is a loose terminology especially considering a 17 year old at the moment. I'm interested in other opinions. Limiting a musician to "Vocals" is in my opinion diminishing the musician who has learned her craft. CaffeinAddict (talk) 05:58, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

The sources are not describing her as being notable for playing an instrument; it's just stating that she played one or talked about one at some point or other (a performance, a carpool karaoke, etc). That is why Template:Infobox musical artist/doc#instrument states "It is not intended as a WP:COATRACK for every instrument the subject has used". Notable for means that it is integral to her notability as an artist. She is not notable for playing an instrument; she is notable for her voice, music and image. You can mention the use of an instrument in the body of the article. An example of a contemporary artist who is notable for playing an instrument is H.E.R. Alicia Keys, Norah Jones, Fiona Apple also come to mind for female artists. There have been many discussions on this before for various artists; one recent example for reference is Talk:Camila Cabello#Instruments. Lapadite (talk) 06:36, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

She can play ukulele and piano. And probably much more Abbeyl24 (talk) 10:42, 11 January 2020 (UTC)

Unnessecary image change

Can someone change the image back to how it was? We don’t need to change the image. CheatCodes4ever (talk) 00:12, 26 December 2019 (UTC)

This current image is worlds better as far as I’m concerned. Trillfendi (talk) 17:13, 26 December 2019 (UTC)
I'm not a fan of the current image personally, because her head looks as if it's floating. On the other hand, I was liking the orange blue pink theme that was going on with the images: [3] 100cellsman (talk) 09:20, 28 December 2019 (UTC)


What we won’t do is have people constantly changing the photo everyday without coming to the talk page to get consensus on which one to use. Apparently different people have “preference” for different ones but it’s becoming disruption now that they’re trying to change it back every day. Trillfendi (talk) 14:21, 4 January 2020 (UTC)
