This Prayer Chain article needs a bio if anyone is willing to put some time into writing one for it. C&R 14:04, 14 April 2006 (UTC)

I mean the ones like this:https://en.wikipedia.org/search/?title=The_Prayer_Chain&diff=prev&oldid=655775792 I have been accused of being a "control freak" and made changes "without merit". Apparently "Having sections helps easy use of article." I won't address the personal attack. Let's look at the from guidelines and manuals of style instead. WP:BODY, part of the Misplaced Pages:Manual of Style/Layout, states, "Very short or very long sections and subsections in an article look cluttered and inhibit the flow of the prose." So while having sections does help navigation (not necessarily use) short ones is to be avoided. Two paragraphs, the second just a sentence, in "Early History" and the same in "Shawl era". "Post Break-up" had three paragraphs. Mercury era, while having several duplications of information and extended quotes, was longer.

Second, MOS:HEADCAPS: "Use sentence-style capitalization, not title-style capitalization, in section and table headings. Capitalize the first letter of the first word, but leave the rest lower case (except for proper names and other items that would ordinarily be capitalized in running text). Thus Section headings, not Section Headings; Previous club, not Previous Club." So here the sections should be Full-length albums, not Full-Length Albums, etc.

Now, WP:QUOTEFARM suggests not overusing quotes. This is overuse. Time to report for breaking WP:3RR. Walter Görlitz (talk) 03:29, 10 April 2015 (UTC)

These sub-sections are obviously in the process of being expanded. Formatting the article with subsections and quotations from the band is no different than how the U2 article is formatted. Unless you are willing to change that article in the same way you are way trying to power-trip on this one, leave it be in the interest of information and easy-use. If you want to change capitalization, go for it. But if you do wide-scale changes & omissions, I'll revert it. Religious Burp (talk) 03:37, 10 April 2015 (UTC)
