Role Model Clothing and other fictions

As you guys know, not all Wikipedia articles are true, just watch Wikipedia: Fact or Fiction. Now, let's just put all the facts and not fictions, for example: Simple Plan members: Pierre Bouvier, Chuck Comeau and the band's best friend Patrick Langlois founded the apparel company Role Model Clothing and I want to add the section on the Wikipedia. It will need citations and verifications. Also, please do not change the "pop-punk" band thingy,, they are pop-punk not just simply "rock". And, Simple Plan is also associated with Bring Me the Horizon lead singer Oliver Sykes and My Chemical Romance rhythm guitarist and backing vocalist Frank Iero. Add it to the associated acts section. — Preceding unsigned comment added by EthanMars (talk • contribs) 05:30, 2 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Discography Charting

Those chart numbers are pretty whack. According to Billboard.com, "Addicted" made it to #45, "Welcome to My Life" hit #40, "Untitled" reached #49, and "Shut Up" only charted at #99. "Crazy" and "I'm Just a Kid" never charted on the Hot 100, and there's definitely no position #261. The only correct one listed is "I'd Do Anything" at #51. Maybe these are positions from the Modern Rock charts or some other chart, but they shouldn't be listed as they currently are. Anyone else agree?

Anyway, I trust Billboard, so I'm gonna go ahead and make the change. Especially as "Crazy" has gotten very little airplay around here and I really doubt that it ever reached #7.

I found out where most of those incorrect numbers are from ... ARC Top 40. If someone wants to list those numbers they can as long as they make that distinction. Still, though, "Crazy" only hit #33 on ARC, so where that #7 came from I'm still not sure.

EDIT* I didnt know where else to put this but I signed up the SP mailing list and just recieved an email saying thier going back in studios soon so if someone could edit the discography to something like, Untitled Album (2007)

Yes Simple Plan has been in the studio for the third time and they are using Bob Rock again.They've been in since about Febuary and the new record should be out in the spring of 2007.There has been10-11 songs recorded.

Trivia

Simple Plan's songs 'Welcome To My Life', 'Untitled (How Could This Happen To Me)' and 'When I'm With You' can be heard in three episodes of the television show Smallville

Look, why don't we move all the TV appearances of their songs to a new subsection, say 5.5, and renumber the existing 5.5 as 5.6?--Wehwalt 17:47, 25 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I'm going to take an axe and cut back on the trivia section soon. This is not a fan site.--Wehwalt 16:08, 10 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Also, in the item regarding David Desrosiers dating "ME", who is ME? An item that vague should be removed, unless someone can expand upon it and/or cite a source.

I cut it. It is obviously teenage fantasy. We get those a lot here. That one must have slipped through. I intend to follow the tag's advice and cut the trivia section entirely, integrating anything worthwhile into the article, when I get a chance.--Wehwalt 09:15, 28 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Simple plan is citied in Son of Dork's song murdered in the mosh. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 82.18.180.250 (talk) 03:06:02, August 19, 2007 (UTC)

I've reverted to an edit I made that was undone by Bowling_is_life referring to Simple Plan being featured in xkcd webcomic. The entry can be considered unflattering, which is possibly why it was removed, but I note other users reminding us that this Wiki is not a fan page: therefore neutral and negative information relating to the band should be allowed.
