Weird stuff in history section[edit]

The first line of the history section looks weird and semi-vandalized ('Ciaran Macdonncha's coat room where he and yur man... "gets busy"'? WTF??), but I'm not good enough at reading article histories to figure out who put it in or if it's accurate... Anyone want to weigh in? Endersdouble 10:42, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, you're right, it's vandalism. I reverted to what appeared to be the last correct revision. Frankg 19:39, 25 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Correct capatilization in name[edit]

The article varies between the use of E-type and E-Type, I am not sure which is correct though. The_Ball (122.148.187.181 04:53, 21 October 2007 (UTC))[reply]

It's actually a bit confusing. On his official website http://www.e-type.se/ he him self uses both versions =s --Hammerby (talk) 18:52, 14 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Charts[edit]

I would add US Billboard chart placings, since at least the album articles state that all albums except the first have also charted there. Last Man Standing and Euro IV Ever even in top 20. 85.217.35.170 (talk) 15:31, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The Vocalists section[edit]

There's a really weird (unsuported) phrasing there, "Much of E-Type's success in the 1990s was built on dancer [...]". This suggests E-Type's success is because of the visual presentation by the dancer, not the music or vocals. This may be correct, but it certainly lacks references.

Found the commit, the full text initially added was:

"But much of E-type's success in the 1990s was built on Hedin's on-stage stand-in, indefatigable dancer Dilnarin "Dee" Demirbag, while she did little singing Dee just mimed the bits where Nana used to be. Often clad in little more than a push-up bra and a loincloth, her flamboyant contortions and gyrations were a recipe for cardiac arrest - at least among members of the audience. She on the other hand hardly felt the need to draw breath, a bit like a Duracell bunny in female form."

This has since been cut and rephrased and cut, since it obviously was not fit for an encyclopedia, but that initial "much of E-type's success in the 1990s was built on" claim has survived.

I'm going to Be Bold and remove it entirely, feel free to revert me (this is not a hill on which I care to die). 83.219.212.46 (talk) 11:15, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
