Going to send to GA

[edit]

Not as expansively sourced as I'd typically like, but it's unclear what other sources are out there. A sad reality that for so many of the people killed during the Cambodian Genocide, a lot of their output and documentation about them was destroyed. Nearly all of what we have is posthumous coverage in western sources. I had a couple conversations with folks from Cambodia, who generally said that while a lot of the songs and names are part of culture, there's just not much written about the artists in newspapers/magazines/books. One of those conversations was an email exchange with an artist who helped to make Don't Think I've Forgotten -- they conducted 70 interviews to make up for the lack of sourcing, hence why I cited the documentary here. All things considered, I think it meets GACR. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 01:52, 9 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Just wondering, if "romvong" is a proper noun it should be capitalized.

Media

[edit]
  • Both media used are on a fair use licenses which qualifies.

  • Since there's a few sources I'm gonna do an in depth source review.
  1. Considering it's a documentary that heavily focuses on the topic, it's alright.
  2. Soundtracks aren't really reliable sources so that should probably be replaced.
    It's the liner notes of the documentary's soundtrack, written by the people who made the documentary. IMO it would be just as reliable as the documentary content. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:50, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Rhododendrites Last comment, just wondering if you could make the citation style of this consistent with the others? You could use Template:Cite AV media notes :)) Arconning (talk) 13:14, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    @Arconning: ah, yes. that's better. :)  DoneRhododendrites talk \\ 13:39, 21 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  3. Broadway Box, this looks like a ticket-selling site for Broadway productions but this certain article looks okay? Happy to talk about it's reliability though.
    • Seems good at a second glance based on the claim.
  1. Guardian, alright
  2. NYT, alright
  3. HuffPost, alright
  4. Twin Cities Daily Planet, seems alright.
  5. ReBeat, alright.
  6. Conditional pass on this source considering it's an academic repository.
  7. WFMU, this is a blog which isn't reliable as it's user-generated content.
    I'd push back on this and argue it's more of a WP:NEWSBLOG -- an official blog from someone at the radio station. It's a well-known radio station that specializes in relatively obscure music. It's not ideal, true, it's not user-generated and it's only used for the track identification (I removed the second instance as unnecessary), and it seems more reliable to use than the alternatives -- discogs, etc. which are indeed user-generated. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:50, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  8. AllMusic, conditional pass again.
  9. Public Culture, alright.
  10. American Way, this looks like a blog though I'm not entirely sure as it states it was originally posted on the magazine.
    I think it's safe to call it a blog. The author has a long-time culture/music/arts journalist/writer, so it's an WP:EXPERTSPS. Similar to the WFMU blog, it should be marginally reliable, even if it's not the most ideal. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:50, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  11. Diplomat, nice.
  12. Discogs isn't a reliable source as it's user-generated content.
     Done Yes, fair. I thought it was usable for the basic claim of existence, but from WP:DISCOGS it looks like I was wrong. I couldn't find a replacement, so I removed that line. — Rhododendrites talk \\ 15:50, 20 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Earwig seems okay.
