The article read like a glowing review, so I have made an effort to make it more neutral. The article still has many unreferenced statements (that I've tagged with {{fact}}) and still suffers from some apparent POV, but with more references to back up the contentious statements, that should hopefully be resolved. If anyone knows of any reviews/interviews/comprehensive tour schedules/etc that can be used as references, they would help this article greatly. -kotra (talk) 00:28, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
- That's because the original material was copied-and-pasted from the Bassnectar website. You can't just put a reference at the end and call it good; it's dubious copyright and poor writing for an encyclopedia to boot. I took out the direct copy/paste stuff and renamed the Bio section "Style," since it obviously isn't much of a biography anymore. If someone can find an actual bio of him (the article on his website purporting to be a "Bio" is most definitely not an example), that-a be super. Tserton (talk) 19:30, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
- The problem here is that the guy is plenty notable, but all the articles are mentions of his shows and such--I haven't found anything I can use to write something with. Drmies (talk) 03:00, 11 September 2010 (UTC)

Flags
If would be good if someone knowledgeable on the subject added something about Bassnectar's (and fans') use of flags, which has even gotten attention among flag experts, e.g.: The Most Vexillologically-Sophisticated DJ?. --Theodore Kloba (talk) 20:43, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
Associated act
SayMyNameTwice, could you please provide a source for this new associated act. I couldn't find anything in a query of my favorite search engine. Sizeofint (talk) 02:52, 11 December 2015 (UTC)

Recentism
I only learned of this guy today, heard he had over a twenty year career with a devoted fan base. I have no opinion of his music. But from this article structure, a naïve reader might think the only reason he has a Wikipedia article is because of recent legal issues: a glossed over career followed by a HIGHLY DETAILED sexual allegation section. Everyone loves controversy, but please, tone it back, folks, per good style, common sense, and WP:PROPORTION: For example, discussion of isolated events, criticisms, or news reports about a subject may be verifiable and impartial, but still disproportionate to their overall significance to the article topic. Writing a thorough and balanced article is more important than writing a "technically true" article lending undue weight towards whatever is in Rolling Stone or Vice this week. Making an article NPOV can involve removing content of less relevance, at least until the rest of the article can expand so that a controversy section doesn't stick out like a sore thumb. --Animalparty!
