Do people use MySpace as a source? --Aristeo 17:26, 26 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

More than you know. Especially on music articles. Crystallina 05:53, 9 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Disagreement

I disagree that MySpace should never be used as a source. It is not simply a networking site anymore - music artists and movies are beginning to push their official sites to the MySpace domain. As an example, when the movie John Tucker Must Die was advertised on television, the website listed for more information was not www.johntuckermustdie.com, but rather www.myspace.com/johntucker.

So I suppose we ought to exercise extreme caution when using MySpace as a source, but there are sometimes where it is helpful, and still other times where it is necessary. tiZom(2¢) 03:52, 15 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]
