[edit] Separate articles for Joe, Kevin, Nick

Periodically over the last year separate articles have been created for each of the brothers including just recently. These articles have been redirected back to this article as there is nothing in the separate articles that is not already in or could be added to this article and there is nothing that shows individual notability separate from the group notability. In the past the separate articles have had the redirects protected to prevent article re-creation and I have restored that state. --NrDg 20:36, 7 March 2008 (UTC) ==

But, now that the Jonas Brothers are starring in movies, like Camp Rock, and they all have different roles, we should maybe separate them into 3 articles? It's just a suggestion but maybe we can do it like how they did for Aly & AJ, where they have 2 separate articles, Alyson Michalka and Amanda Michalka. Would anyone add to that? Thanks. xo ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 22:45, 8 April 2008 (UTC)Calliegal
Are they notable as individuals though? They've only acted out in four films, and two of them as themselves, as Jonas Brothers. Alyson and Amanda Michalka are notable as actresses, being in many shows, acting out a character. --staka (T ・C) 00:47, 10 April 2008 (UTC)
Sounds doubtful to me. Can you find any articles about one of them that isn't an article about the band?Kww (talk) 02:26, 10 April 2008 (UTC)

I think at first it wasn't necessary for separate articles. But I think as time has gone on they are starting to come into their own as individuals. For instance there's tons of info about Nick growing up, going through Broadway, and starting the band that could be used. And when their show J.O.N.A.S! comes out they will all have their own characters. I have LOTS of information about them separately and if you started new pages for them I could contribute some very valuable info. 74.142.205.253 (talk) 00:14, 23 April 2008 (UTC)


This Jonas Brothers article should be fundamentally about the group and what it has done together as a group. Then there

needs to be seperate biography articles for each individual. But for the group article, one glaring hole: A picture identifying the three brothers with the name that goes with each person. This would answer the starting question of "WHO" are they? And with the names, the dates of birth. That is because people want this fundamental question answered, how old are they? Rickster77 (talk) 13:23, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

SEPERATE ARTICLES DEFINITELY NEEDED IN MY OPINON. ALSO, SOMETHING OUGHT TO BE SAID ABOUT THE MOVIE THEY'RE GOING TO BE IN, CAMP ROCK. AND WHY IS THIS TERRIBLE DISSAGE IN THE ARTICLE BEING TOLERATED?! :O —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.222.237.191 (talk) 02:21, 29 May 2008 (UTC)

can i write the seperate articles? or can i write 1 of them? Joe's article? ( can you give me instructions? plz)
I agree we have to separate the articles. I think we should split them after the Camp Rock movie. I would be happy to create one of the articles. But it's still not decided if we should separate them. I personally think we should separate it after the movie goes worldwide. --RyRy5 (talk) 05:59, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Punk? Excuse me?

Alright, I'm not really sure what "pop-punk" is. All I know is what the pop-punk article says, which doesn't answer my question, but it mentioned Green Day. And I take from that fact that either A) this article is horridly wrong in calling the Jonas Brothers any kind of punk, or B) Pop-Punk is really just Pop with a different name...Could someone please explain? 69.236.76.121 (talk) 00:37, 14 March 2008 (UTC)
Pop-punk is a musical style that usually has fast, up-tempo beats, with heavy usage of power chords and distorted guitars, with melodic vocals. The songs are usually relatively short, between a minute and half to three minutes, and are set at a blistering pace, but with a light hearted pop lyrics and melodies. Pop-punk differs from normal punk because the vocals are usually less melodic in punk and more abrasive, and the lyrics are also usually more obtrusive and violent. Both styles have very high-tempo rhythms though, and often rely on similar power chord and distorted guitar tones. On a whole, normal punk is much more abrasive then pop-punk. Blink 182 is another classic example of pop-punk. I feel like the Jonas Brothers fall under the category of pop-rock, not pop-punk. I hope that helps, I can clarify more if you want. (WaltBusterkeys (talk) 01:28, 24 April 2008 (UTC))
Pop-punk sounds like the same thing as power pop to me. I suppose the point is that they are a rock- and pop- based boy band in the Osmond Brothers tradition as opposed to a R&B-based boy band in the Jackson 5 tradition. Timothy Horrigan (talk) 23:25, 20 May 2008 (UTC)
Recently, I've been seeing a lot of Wikipedia articles on different bands that are not associated and have different styles to Pop Punk being labeled respectively as Pop Punk, and its truly annoying.

while Pop Punk is a musical style there is a scene that normally follows it and they clearly are not part of the punk rock scene, and although some of their songs have similarities to Pop Punk, they should not be labeled as such. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.2.109.22 (talk) 16:09, 30 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Charts

Jonas Brothers' songs, S.O.S. and When You Look Me In The Eyes charted on the Channal V's V Countdown. S.O.S. highest peak is #8, now at #11, when it debuted, it peaked at #10, if I'm not wrong. And for When You Look Me In The Eyes peaked at #13/#16. I think we should at it on the charts part, because it's the first time Jonas Brothers' songs charted in Asia. Oh, and When You Look Me In The Eyes also charted at #10 on one of Indonesia's radio station, the name is Ozon FM if I'm not wrong. The highest peak is at #4. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 222.124.184.92 (talk) 09:58, 15 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Frankie Jonas

Frankie Jonas (AKA The Bonus Jonas, Frank the Tank.) I heard expressed interest in being apart of the Jonas Brothers a little later on...when he is a bit older. Can anyone cite the source of him saying he doesn't want to be in it? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.166.77.216 (talk) 20:15, 15 March 2008 (UTC) But I know this is the wrong time and section to say this but what is they're mom's name???????????MFHGdsfmhbfsdfomj!!!!joe i love you!!!!and nick and kevintoo

No, no one can find Frankie himself saying this. Nick said either in Tiger Beat or LifeStory recently that he doesn't want to be in the band. I'm pretty sure it's in LifeStory where the brothers are talking about Frankie. 3/17/0864.148.181.17 (talk) 23:29, 17 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Please remove irrelevant stuff in the talk page

I had noticed that there are items that are either irrelevant to the topic, are spam, or just "plain screwed" please adhere the talk page guidelines. As if the header template isn't big enough. I love them with all my heart, therefore I am asking you guys (responsible Wikipedians) to fix up the talk page, asap. Thanks in advance. -iaNLOPEZ1115 · TaLKBaCK · Vandalize it 12:14, 5 April 2008 (UTC)


Yes, I can't agree anymore. This talk page is becoming a place where Jonas Brothers fans and Jonas Brothers haters debate about the band. This is a talk page, where you are suppose to discuss about improving the article, not arguing about personal opinions about them, nor is it a place for people to spread rumors. Let's stop the debate and actually talk about the article, okay? Thanks, ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 22:43, 8 April 2008 (UTC)Calliegal

[edit] Irrelevant info

There is no need for the track listing of their albums to be listed on this page. They should be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.49.224.190 (talk) 22:51, 8 April 2008 (UTC) this is not a good bibliography —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.71.50.105 (talk) 21:55, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Ancestry

The Jonas brothers appear to be Eurasian. Could someone please provide this info on their ancestry?--69.234.205.106 (talk) 19:34, 16 April 2008 (UTC)

Yes, the boys are Italian. I think many people know that but we need a reliable reference. But thank you anyways I'll see what I can do. Consider getting and account if you want to edit pages that are semi-protected. ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 23:57, 16 April 2008 (UTC)Calliegal

[edit] Prom-themed tour?

The "prom-themed" tour was actually called the "Marvelous Party Tour".99.144.251.85 (talk) 15:12, 25 April 2008 (UTC)

Really? That is interesting and I'll add it in once we can find a reference for it. If you got one and would like to contribute, please add it in somewhere in this discussion. Thank you, ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 03:38, 29 April 2008 (UTC)Calliegal
Never mind, i found it. ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 03:40, 29 April 2008 (UTC)Calliegal

[edit] Joe's not dead.

In Joes profile, it said he died April 30, 2008. I searched everywhere, and can not find any news article about it. I'm to lazy to fix it, so who volunteeres? I posted this before, but it was deleted for some reason. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.233.80.173 (talk) 22:02, 30 April 2008 (UTC)

Where does it say that Joe is dead? I don't see it. And joe is awesome :) ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 00:05, 1 May 2008 (UTC)Calliegal

i fixed it--Meliss402 (talk) 21:09, 1 May 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! I think it's really stupid to put it up there that somebody is dead. Just because you dislike that person doesn't mean they should die. I mean, many people love Joe too. (like me :)) ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 03:51, 2 May 2008 (UTC)Calliegal

someone also needs to fix the fact that it says Joe died under the "Burning Up" Tour. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.130.53.63 (talk) 03:57, 2 May 2008 (UTC)


i so agree with ya Calliegal|♥, --Meliss402 (talk) 14:01, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

That was just vandalism, someone adding false info.--RyRy5 (talk ♠ wikify) 00:25, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
These horrible vandalism has to stop. Why must people be so cruel? I mean just because I don't like Miley Cyrus doesn't mean I want her to die. I'm not that mean and other Wikipedians shouldn't be neither. If you don't like Joe, then ignore him, don't say that he's dead! I'm on guard almost EVERYDAY to check for vandalism like these, so vandalismers, look out! :D ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 04:21, 6 May 2008 (UTC)Calliegal

we do ppl even do that? ppl come on here 4 info not VANDALISM i check 4 it everyday 2. --Meliss402 (talk) 20:17, 9 May 2008 (UTC)

i dont think joe is dead. 1st, if he was dead it will be all over the news. 2nd, if he was dead april 30th...explain how did he preform in american idol in may 2008? this is the most stupid rumor about joe i have ever heard! LOVE JB! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Joejonasfan122 (talk • contribs) 02:22, 1 June 2008 (UTC)


We should just ban the users who keep saying people are dead! It's really unrespectable to the person even if you hate them. I mean what have Joe ever done to you to make you want him to die? You don't even know him and I don't think anyone deserves to die just cuz you dont' like them. ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 23:35, 3 June 2008 (UTC)Calliegal

Joe Jonas is dead? thank goodness! Kidding! I know he isn't dead. But, i kinda wish he was. Wait, that's too mean. I just wish him and the rest of his family would move to Antartica and stop singing for the rest of their lives. NO OFFENSE TO ANY JONAS BROTHERS FANS!--Be cool, Be real, and Behave! :) (talk) 19:29, 9 June 2008 (UTC)

Excuse me, can you please stop saying Joe Jonas is dead. Do you really want someone to die just cause you hate them? If that's what you realy think, then please keep to yourself and this is not a forum for discussions. It's a talk page to improve Jonas Brothers' article, which is kind of like Joe Jonas' article. So, if you don't like Joe, you don't have to come to his article, right? ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 01:26, 11 June 2008 (UTC)Calliegal
This is not a joke. It is considered vandalism adding false info to an article as a joke. --RyRy5 (talk) 01:28, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Cheetah-licious Christmas Tour 2005

The boys also were special guests for the Cheetah Girls' Cheetah-licious Christmas Tour that took place in December of 2005. I don't know if that's notworthy enough to be part of the tour section, but that's around the time they first started touring.

[edit] May want to add this

Welll.... If you watch the Kids Of The Future backwards.. It's says Satan!Satan!Our sweet forsaken santan.Santan Satan! If I wasnt suppose to say that i'm sorry. Maybe you'd also like to add that Disney has ALOT of hidden messages in songs. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Npurplegirl (talk • contribs) 23:16, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Please provide proof, like a video showing the show backwards or a clip of the song backwards. And by "other songs" what exactly are those songs? Thankks ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 23:41, 4 June 2008 (UTC)Calliegal

Theres Hannah Montana,i mean alot.You can follow this link : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yo5RAWlyrJs&feature=related —Preceding unsigned comment added by Npurplegirl (talk • contribs) 00:13, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Disney Karaoke Series: Camp Rock

I would really want to know... who deleted Disney Karaoke Series: Camp Rock and redirected it back to Camp Rock (soundtrack)? You can find articles on Hannah Montana: Disney's Karaoke Series (album). It's the same thing, except it's for Camp Rock! Whoever deleted it, please give me some good reasons. ♥, calliegal_x (talk) 23:40, 4 June 2008 (UTC)Calliegal

I'm going to take a guest here. It might have been deleted because it showed no notability. The Hannah Montana one shows lot's of notability.--RyRy5 (talk) 23:48, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Genre?

Aren't they more bubblegum pop than pop rock? Just the fact that they do the baby bottle pop commercial is a give away that they are a bubblegum pop band. It should at least be listed under genres on the side.
