Changes made to The Lost Trailers page are intended to provide a broader, more accurate view of the ongoing music project, which began before the group of individuals who had some commercial success in country music, and continues to exist after that group of musicians disbanded. The Lost Trailers was a name created by founder Stokes Nielson before his music was discovered by Willie Nelson. I am the publicist for Stokes' current company, but my job is to deal with mainstream media. Stokes Nielson asked me to revise Wikipedia because the information was incomplete and inaccurate insofar as it only relates to the small window of time in which his music was recognized as the result of a recording deal. No longer being signed to that label, and not having the same band members does not mean that The Lost Trailers ceases to exist. It is a continuing project, similar to Built To Spill or Broken Social Scene, that will have a variety of members depending on the project. Mr. Nielson would like the listing to be more fully accurate. Thank you. laughinpenguin Laughingpenguin (talk) 06:36, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

The Lost Trailers still exists. Players performed on Friday, June 10, 2011 during CMA Music Festival in Nashville, Tennessee with Stokes Nielson and Jason Wyatt in the lead. The Lost Trailers shoud not be referred to in past tense. While Mr. Nielson understands the COI policy, we do note that it is not prohibited for him to take action to make this listing accurate. laughingpenguinLaughingpenguin (talk) 06:44, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • Okay, good enough. I trust you're editing in good faith, but I would encourage you to use secondary sources — cite newspaper articles, magazine articles, third-party websites (for instance, you can't cite someone's Facebook page). If you're adding info to an article, show where you got it from. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 17:15, 12 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
