Nixon? edit
Former US president Richard Nixon is listed among Rieflin's former bands. I'm assuming that's either a joke or an error that should link to something else, but I don't want to just go ahead and delete it. Someone more knowledgeable should look at that, though. 50.72.201.97 (talk) 04:39, 11 October 2015 (UTC)
- Richard M. Nixon is Peter Buck's backing band. ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 22:34, 25 March 2020 (UTC)

About his birthday saying September 29 edit
It says his birthday as September 29, 1960 (revision of this moment) and it has a citation ([1]). But I'm dubious about it because those sources ([2][3][4]) say it's September 30. How about it?--Akiyama(tentative) (talk) 08:25, 29 September 2019 (UTC)
Better-quality image edit
The current image is heavily doctored and hard to see. Good images of Rieflin exist; see: https://www.iheartradio.ca/image/policy:1.11141764:1585137141/bill.jpg?f=default&$p$f=c0356d6 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Midknight13 (talk • contribs) 23:04, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
- Midknight13, Agreed. So are these better-quality images freely licensed? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 01:17, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
Sweet 75 edit
There is no mention of Bill's collaboration with Krist Novoselic (Nirvana) and Yva Las Vegas, although 'Sweet 75' is listed as a related act. The discography also does not list the 1997 Geffen Record's 'Sweet 75' release on which Bill played drums. I edited the discography table, but some text in the 'Career' section reflecting Bill's involvement in this project might be appropriate. BandyRooster (talk) 16:54, 25 October 2021 (UTC)
By century not needed edit
He luved in 2 centuries. I do not think we need to categorize him by either. Really I do not see the need to break up drummers, keyboardist etc by century, at least with 20th and 21st. However someone who lived from 1960-2020 is not defined by either century, and placing him in both just because he kuved in both is an example of excessive categorization. He was an American keyboardist and an American drummer. These categories are precise enough.John Pack Lambert (talk) 15:48, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
- Is there any consensus for this kind of editing or are you just removing articles from categories based on your personal preference? ―Justin (koavf)❤T☮C☺M☯ 15:56, 20 December 2023 (UTC)
