Factual statements

If you are going to quote TwoSet Violin, please reference the videos, do not just insert random phrases they have said. Also refrain from using opinions unless you are quoting the opinions of TwoSet Violin. ChristusImperat, CSSML (talk) 22:15, 9 November 2018 (UTC)

Or reference news articles about the group. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 02:42, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

I've tagged episode needed on the video statements that remain unsourced. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 02:49, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

By the way, the only catchphrase that is strongly associated with the act is Practice, as they sell merchandise with that word on it. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 03:06, 10 November 2018 (UTC)

Brett Yang was born March 2,1992 (Age 26). Eddy Chen was born March 23,1993 (Age 25). Erika.D.M.M (talk) 02:29, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

Erika.D.M.M, where's your source on that? AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 02:29, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

Their ages can be found on famousbirthdays.com, though it does not seem to be a very reliable source. ChristusImperat, CSSML (talk) 14:19, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

Famousbirthdays.com is not a reliable source. Need news article or a tweet from themselves. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:23, 13 November 2018 (UTC)

Eddy has mentioned on the video where he bought a viola for Brett's birthday that Brett's birthday is on the 3rd of March: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B_nFV0zdv5U&t=81s. He says it 5 seconds into the video. Would this be considered reliable enough to at least mention somewhere in the article? ExuberantRaptor (talk) 00:41, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

ExuberantRaptor, the YouTube video saying "Brett's Birthday the 3rd of March" is okay for self-published source, but need one to confirm the year. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 01:17, 12 March 2019 (UTC)

Additional gimmicks

Any additional gimmicks or catchphrases should be accompanied by news articles that discuss them. Do not just add any phrase that might start to be recurring with such sources. Examples: [1] AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 23:08, 22 December 2018 (UTC)

Note they have merchandise that propose several phrases, such as "Eat Sleep Practice", but they are not regularly used. [2] You need to show they are covered by news sources as recurring catchphrases, not their own videos. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 04:23, 10 April 2019 (UTC)

This would include "Amazing!", "Sacreligious Boi", "If you can play it slowly, you can play it quickly", and "Interesting". You need to find news articles (not Reddit or social media responses) that discuss these catchphrases as regular gimmicks to their videos. Wikipedia is not a collection of every recurring phrase they use. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 16:00, 23 October 2019 (UTC)

 Done Thanks! NiciVampireHeart 22:05, 22 September 2019 (UTC)

Names

Throughout the article, there is an inconsistency in the use of first names and surnames. Should first names or last names be used in this article? Whichever used, it must be consistent throughout the entire article. For now, I'm going to change them to surnames, as that seems to be what is done in most other wikipedia articles. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Jacakira (talk • contribs) 07:00, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

Jacakira, please note that there is a Ray Chen that may be confusing. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 09:29, 29 December 2019 (UTC)

Strad cover

TwoSet Violin are featured in the August 2020 edition of The Strad. There are three online articles but they require subscription to read in detail. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 00:12, 27 July 2020 (UTC)

New section: Discography

Would the lo-fi tracks released on Spotify warrant the creation of a new section for discography? Clearly not a record release, but it doesn't violate any of the policies set out in the discography style guide.

Keen to get some other opinions before I create this as it could be contentious.

Smixoe1 (talk) 08:34, 9 August 2020 (UTC)Smixoe

Smixoe1, it's probabaly not enough to warrant its own section. Perhaps if it has charted or something. AngusWOOF (bark • sniff) 15:58, 9 August 2020 (UTC)

Change 'Yang' to 'Brett.' Change 'Chen' to 'Eddy. (Some people may confuse Eddy with Ray Chen) Twosetviolin (talk) 06:22, 7 November 2020 (UTC)

 Not done: Wikipedia style guidelines have articles refer to people by their last names, not their first names. kelapstick^(bainuu) 14:12, 9 November 2020 (UTC)

References

Hi there, big fan of TwoSet Violin here! As I was going through some of the references, I notices many of the TwoSet Violin tour websites are no longer in circulation. For example, https://www.colburnschool.edu/calendar/events/twoset-violin-world-tour-los-angeles/ from reference number 23 links you to a 404 error page on the Colburn website. I am sure there are other tour websites that no longer exist on this page. Are we still keeping these tour website references for historic purposes or should they be removed?

Thanks Rsvetlov (talk) 13:47, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

@Rsvetlov: You can tag the dead links with {{Dead link|date=February 2021}}. If you're feeling adventurous, you can also try to search and add an archived version of the websites as described here and expanded upon here.-- Jezebel's Ponyo^{bons mots} 17:21, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

 Done. Added archive link. Any others? AngusW🐶🐶F (bark • sniff) 17:57, 4 February 2021 (UTC)

I want to add on some additional details about TwoSet Violin including two videos with Singaporean Menuhin Champion Chloe Chua and where TwoSet Violins can be spotted in Singapore (try Lavender MRT)! OilcanE (talk) 13:13, 17 August 2021 (UTC)

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 13:17, 17 August 2021 (UTC)
