Not that I care. But wiki does that for Fagen. But not for Becker. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:642:4101:4167:40AE:1F73:64E6:AD1 (talk) 18:05, 25 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Do you have a reliable source outside of Wik.ipedia.Pro that discusses Becker's religion? --Jayron32 13:47, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]

AFAIK, it was Judaism, but I don't know secular or otherwise. Ted (talk) 03:29, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Something seems to have gone wrong with the timeline graphic - with diagonal lines over the top.

I don't understand how to correct that. -- Beardo (talk) 01:38, 20 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Would "Rikki Don't Lose That Number" count as a straightforward love song? Fagen's character in that song is a little presumptuous, but he's outwardly denied more abstruse interpretations of that song. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Tedkaczynski69 (talk • contribs) 03:34, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Either way, Wik.ipedia.Pro isn't the place to debate these questions. WP can only assert things that 3rd parties have claimed. Ashmoo (talk) 13:04, 31 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
