editSamrat Chakrabarti
editI think Samrat definitely needs his own article. He even has his own IMDB page. Crazy.--Htmlism 20:08, 4 November 2006 (UTC)
Group Shot
editNeed permission for http://www.hyannissound.com/img/group.jpg, perfectly acceptable shot of the current line-up.
- It's not acceptable if it's from the subject's own site. Then again, most of this article isn't acceptable by Wikipedia standards. NewkirkPlaza (talk) 04:12, 22 March 2018 (UTC)

notability?
editWow, this page is awful. The Sound has been cited by multiple press sources and even mentioned by name on a major political commentary show, and yet the only reference is the Sound's own web page? And is anyone on the list of alumni notable for Wikipedia's purposes, other than Samrat (movies & music), Dave Goryl (movies & TV) and perhaps Townsend (from his namecheck in Pitch Perfect) and Rob Powers (from his appearance on TV news), that would justify such a comprehensive list? This page is so obviously self-written, it hurts to read it. NewkirkPlaza (talk) 13:28, 19 February 2018 (UTC)
Request for Comment: New WikiProject for A Cappella-related articles
editHi there! To any and all interested: I've proposed a WikiProject dedicated to a cappella. This would be a group of editors interested in improving the quality of articles related to a cappella. If you're passionate about a cappella—ranging from the Pentatonix to groups like the Sound, or perhaps pop culture representations like Pitch Perfect and The Sing-Off—please check out the proposal and share your thoughts!
Here's a link to the proposal for WikiProject A Cappella.
If you could see yourself contributing to an article related to a cappella (like this one), please consider joining!
Historical Chart of Members
editI feel as though the Historical Chart of Members is, to say this kindly, God awful. It is MUCH too large and I think, although potentially useful, provides excess information that seems unimportant to the general audience. I also feel as though much of this information can be inferred from the Recordings section which states the featured singers.
If you have any thoughts about this, please let me know. Talulagosh (talk) 21:30, 11 February 2025 (UTC)
Draftify proposal
editI propose that this article be draftified per WP:DRAFTIFY. The topic may be notable, but the article currently does not meet mainspace standards. Five of the seven sources are either self-published or not reliable sources (TikTok, Instagram, YouTube). Most statements are not substantiated by sources. See also additional reasons in comments above. In my opinion, the article in its current form does not meet the criteria of WP:N and WP:V. ◉wwwWiki◉ 08:00, 13 December 2025 (UTC)
