Wiki Education Foundation-supported course assignment[edit]

There are inconsistent date styles in this article. I've looked at the article history, and the 'original style' (appearing in the second version of the page) appears to be dmy. I'll fix everything to match. The Parson's Cat (talk) 12:46, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Why should it be dmy? It's an article about a store in the US. AllegedlyHuman (talk) 19:03, 1 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
For clarity, JHS is a manufacturer rather than a store. It is indeed based in Kansas City, Missouri in the US. JHS sells widely, and you can find its products in many music shops in the US and beyond.
Regarding dmy, I was following MOS:DATEUNIFY and MOS:DATERET, and I checked the revision history to see what was there first. (I must admit that I was surprised to find that the first writers had gone with dmy but they did!) The Parson's Cat (talk) 17:02, 7 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I wouldn't have classed the national ties as strong myself. However, I'd certainly have no objections if there is a consensus for change. I did my best to implement consistent dates using the dmy template, so if anyone wants to make a change, it is easy now - just search for |dmy and replace with |mdy.

Paid contributions - are these still a problem as of May 9, 2021?[edit]
We know that KelseyNoelle2021 has declared connections to JHS Pedals, which resulted in the addition of the {{Paid contributor}} template to the article. The {{Paid contributor}} template's documentation says 'This page may be used on pages that have disclosed, but still problematic, paid contributions and that require cleanup.'
I've edited the page myself to deal with several problems. What problems do we feel remain, please, and what else would we need to do so we could remove the {{Paid contributor}} template? (The {{Connected contributor}} template would of course remain on this Talk page.) The Parson's Cat (talk) 13:58, 9 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
As no one has said anything, I'm going to be WP:BOLD and remove the {{Paid contributor}} template. If you object, you know what to do ... ;-) The Parson's Cat (talk) 19:14, 24 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
