Reunion is separate band.

Jerry's incarnation of the Misfits is ongoing. The reunion with Glenn and Doyle is not The Misfits. They are performing under the legally distinct "The Original Misfits" name. Lineups should be reverted.216.126.82.221 (talk) 14:37, 18 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Well, that's since been settled. Morganfitzp (talk) 18:15, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

First Lineup

If anyone can find any reference to Diane DiPiazza and Jimmy Battle being in the band, that would be helpful. As it stands, the only place where that has been referenced is MisfitsCentral, and Jerry Only, Franche Coma, and Manny Martinez have all denied such claims in interviews. If no one can find any info, I'm removing them from the page and the band members page. -Disco dude rock (talk) 21:49, 20 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Capitalization

Is there a reason why every mention of an album title or movie title doesn't contain capitalization of every word? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 165.225.34.186 (talk) 22:18, 27 June 2018 (UTC)[reply]

You would have to ask the individual editors who made those edits. Or just capitalize—and italicize—any album or film titles that lack this on the English language Wikipedia. Morganfitzp (talk) 18:18, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Sources needed...but Beware!

Critical sections of this article lack citations, hence its current status as a C-class article. When adding citations, look for older published source material. I've come across recent documation on The Misfits that just quotes this Wikipedia article verbatim creating a source feedback loop, thus...Beware! Morganfitzp (talk) 18:23, 22 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]
