Should be easy enough to get facts for this band, just google for "Dinosaur Jr". I came up with a fan site that had lots of facts and dates at http://tinpan.fortunecity.com/newreed/336/bio.html - and Google shows plenty more sites as well. - Logotu 19:58 4 Jun 2003 (UTC)
I'm sorry--"equally on par"? Isn't that redundant? --Domukaz — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.30.19.174 (talk) 12:14, 21 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]
The result of the debate was move. —Nightstallion (?) 09:18, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Dinosaur Jr. → Dinosaur Jr {there is no period after "Jr"}
See the Official Dinosaur Jr site - there is no period. --HasNoClue 08:28, 22 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Regarding the move from Dinosaur Jr. to Dinosaur Jr - ALL the CDs (including the latest greatest hits and reissues) I own have it with the period. I think the CDs should be authoritative, when in doubt. Besides, surely it's correct english to have that period, anyway? --Gecks 08:20, 23 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Okay: Let's establish the tense for the intro. "were", "gained", and other past-tense words appear, even though the first sense states "Dinosaur Jr is an American alternative rock band". Notice, for example, that the Nirvana page states that Nirvana "was" an American rock band. Which is it? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.165.87.40 (talk) 15:26, 21 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]
On May 1 2007, the original members of Dinosaur Jr are expected to release their first album of new material together since Bug. The album will be released on Fat Possum Records and is titled Beyond. It will be the first album by the original line up in 19 years. This should probabl be fixed. Billy Bishop 02:13, 3 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I remember that with one of these albums, Mascis wrote and recorded most of the tracks in a few days to complete the album - does anyone remember which, with a ref if possible? Thanks.--Michig 13:46, 18 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

After extensive revisions & work by good writers and people who know the facts about the band, this page was promoted to B-class by an administrator (CloudNine) who has also made significant contributions to other pages of the same genre. Please do not change to to 'start' as it does not belong there. thank you.

please see here as to why Dinosaur should not be classfied with grunge. They developed outside of the Seattle scene and predated virtually all of it. Arleach (talk) 02:12, 15 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
The result of the proposal was move. JPG-GR (talk) 01:30, 15 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Dinosaur Jr → Dinosaur Jr. — Official and management websites and CD covers have the period. I think this is still up for discussion. —Davewho2 (talk) 01:17, 11 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

. Since polling is not a substitute for discussion, please explain your reasons, taking into account Wikipedia's naming conventions.This section seems to have a huge gap in it. There is very little discussion of the band during the post Where You Been era, which seems like a time when the band started to chip into the mainstream. No mention of the Lollapalooza tour? And who was the second guitar player at that time (the only time I saw DinoJr. as a four piece) ??? I will look into this, but others, please contribute. DFS (talk) 10:10, 24 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Originally called Dinosaur, prior to legal issues that forced the group to change their name, the band disbanded in 1997 until reuniting in 2005.
This sentence is confusing. Were the disbanding and the legal issue related? Thmazing (talk) 23:08, 4 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]
There is something wrong with the timeline at the moment, as it has weird diagonal lines on it, but I am afraid I don't know how to fix that. Could anyone lend a hand, please? Thank you. Oulipal (talk) 16:55, 4 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Unless I missed it..no mention of the only song people remember 25 years later? Their biggest hit? No charting numbers for it? -S — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:642:4101:4167:40AE:1F73:64E6:AD1 (talk) 18:56, 6 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Hi, I knew Dinosaur Jr a while ago, as it was one of the influence of Nirvana, but I’ve been listening their music on Youtube recently, like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AaEi-8FYLeg, so I wonder, isn’t there an album called Fossils? I can’t see it in the discography in the page. Isn’t it missing? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 77.199.163.170 (talk) 17:42, 25 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
