    Edit request: people Avril "influenced"

    [edit]

    The wiki article states that Avril "influenced" Rob Halford. The source says nothing about Avril Lavigne "influencing" Rob Halford, he simply praised her. Halford was 30 years into his career when Avril Lavigne's first album came out. Take a close look at that list, it's ludicrous. Kickysam49 (talk) 04:18, 16 December 2023 (UTC)[reply]

    Removed Halford for reason stated: liking someone is not the same as being influenced by. Checked a few references for others in the list and they do mention being influenced by her... Random fixer upper (talk) 00:15, 18 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    [edit]

    Remove "Also when she was 5, she was diagnosed with Attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), which caused her problems during her school years." and Category:People with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. The source appears unreliable and does not cite its information, and no primary source for this claim could be found. 2A00:23C6:8809:A301:8E8:35E6:62B3:6FE1 (talk) 19:59, 2 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

    "Avril is dead/uses a stunt double for public appearences" theory.

    [edit]

    Hi I have no idea if this has been brought up before so bear with me, but surely this should be mentioned? It's been going on since the release of her second album and could be adequately source due to the sheer amount of depth to the theory, so I'd say this paticular conspiracy theory is notable. Elvis Presley has his own page on the matter so surely we could dedicate a paragraph or so to this? Stadt64 (talk) 07:42, 5 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    Nevermind I was unaware this article existed, though I think this should be mentioned in it. Stadt64 (talk) 13:25, 13 January 2025 (UTC)[reply]

    [edit]

    the article reads “Avril Lavigne is a key musician in the development of pop punk” instead it should read “Avril Lavigne is an important pop punk musician whose success paved the way for other punk influenced top 40 musicians in the early 2000s” This is because it is manifestly false that Lavigne helped develop pop punk, pop punk was already an established genre by the time she was popular Jillf775 (talk) 15:32, 9 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
