== Edit request: First paragraph ==

First paragraph says ''The band have been credited with "[bridging] the gap between heavy metal and pop with style and ease."''

Assuming the text bridging is supposed to be a wikilink to an article, it needs some work. [[Special:Contributions/2601:CF:300:4B70:3C63:3B97:9421:7DB2|2601:CF:300:4B70:3C63:3B97:9421:7DB2]] ([[User talk:2601:CF:300:4B70:3C63:3B97:9421:7DB2|talk]]) 20:06, 18 February 2022 (UTC)

Two minor mistakes/corrections

- In the last paragraph of the introduction it says "Bon Jovi has released 16 studio albums, five compilations and three live albums." 16 is wrong, it should be 15.

- In the sections "Burning Bridges and This House Is Not for Sale (2015–2018)" (third paragraph) it says "In November 4, 2016, the band officially released their 13th studio album, This House Is Not for Sale …" "This House Is Not for Sale" is the 14th studio album, not the 13th one (that is "Burning Bridges") – according to the discography below as well.

Could somebody fix this? Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2003:D8:571F:7213:9C34:8136:C161:DC29 (talk) 18:32, 26 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Alec John Such's page was a redirect to Bon Jovi, until his unfortunate death. While a few obituary pieces came out, this does not make AJS notable enough for his own page. – Muboshgu (talk) 22:45, 7 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Disagree He was a founding member and is inducted as such into the Rock Hall. I consider Such notable on his own. Rusted AutoParts 00:15, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disagree The article features enough sources to establish independent notability in addition to Such's Rock Hall induction. In addition, the page being initially redirected into Bon Jovi was not as a result of lack of notability, but the fact the original incarnation of the article from 2015 or so lacked any sources at all. This issue is now fixed with the new version. Sparkysilverfish (talk) 01:35, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disagree While the article is short, there's no doubt that he's notable in his own right, with nothing that can't be addressed through normal editing. Lugnuts Fire Walk with Me 07:15, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disagree Subject is clearly notable to have their own article, although heavy expansion is needed. --TDKR Chicago 101 (talk) 09:44, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Disagree He was notable in his own right. Was a fixture of the New Jersey music scene and helped bring drummer Tico Torres and guitarist Richie Sambora into the band. Founding member of Bon Jovi and played on six albums, including their three biggest albums, and all coinciding tours. Was with the band for 11-12 years, arguably their most prolific and notable period. Rock Hall inductee, proving his notability. There was pretty substantial coverage of his death, further proving up his impact to American popular music. Agree that the original article was lacking in sources, but that the new article resolves that. Article certainly worthy and in need of expansion. Abog (talk) 18:39, 8 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
