Organic Brain

I'm taking out the organic brain syndrome and i think it is fucking shit I beleive it is based on a misunderstanding of organic brain syndrome. OBS is decrease in brain function OUTSIDE of mental illnesses- it usually only happens in the elderly. At most this is a fan rumor of dubious authenticity.--AK7 12:13, 2 January 2006 (UTC)

Have to agree with the above, besides the 'fact' starts with 'it's said' (so, it isn't a fact), he probably suffers from taking too much acid instead of OBS.(Quibus 09:47, 26 January 2006 (UTC))

sid wilson

you don't take shots of acid, you takes hits or tabs. consider editing out this section as it seems like internet rumor and not fact.

sid is not muslim there is another dj artist that has the same name and he is arab and muslim.... u might have got them confused

Partner - - Necessary?

I don't see why the "Partner" section is even here. It says "it is rumored", and do we need it? I'm not trying to be offensive, I just want to know if it really should be here at all. --Lord Dagon 19:12, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Fingers

I can only find anecdotal (ie WP mirror and blog-type) evidence that he had 6 fingers on both hands when he was born. Such a claim really needs decent evidence before being allowed in. In the absence of hard evidence I feel the claim will have to remain excluded. Deizio talk 22:34, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

i fully agree. such a claim needs hard proof or it should be deleted. a citation would probably be useful aslo. User:poj21

Exactly, that is a forum post, granted it is from somebody who works closely to Slipknot and I believe it is true. It is not a verifiable source by Wikipedia's standards. Rezter ^TALK 19:43, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Matt Heafy

I deleted the Matt Heafy section as the supposed story of them being close friends was deleted from the Matt Heafy article itself Graham Laycock 02:00, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Birthday

It might want to be noted that Sid's real birthday is 1/20/1977 not in 1978. You can verify this at the Iowa Courts Online Search. http://www.iowacourts.state.ia.us/ESAWebApp/TrialSimpFrame

Just type in his name and it will bring everything up. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Unicorn50213 (talk • contribs) 02:27, 17 March 2007 (UTC).

Just getting blank pages and no matches. Can you be clearer how to find the required information? Deiz talk 02:18, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

I also got a blank page, but only the first time. Try loading the page again. As of today it still works, I searched for "Wilson Sid" and I confirm I'm seeing a lot of "Wilson Jr, Sidney George - DOB 01/20/1977". Od1n (talk) 21:43, 10 January 2017 (UTC)

Sid Wilson Birthday

1. Go to Google and type in Iowa online courts.
2. Click on Iowa Courts Online Search.
3. Click Start A Case Search Here!.
4. Under where it says Trial Court click the Case Search.
5. Then just enter the name on the top line. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 69.63.22.199 (talk) 23:12, 15 September 2007 (UTC)

I searched for Sidney George Wilson and you are correct there was 11 results with the same birth date; 01/20/1977 and I'm sure it is a reliable source but there needs to be an easier way to refer to it. Rezter ^TALK 19:56, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Mask to Masks?

On the article there is a paragraph about Sid Wilson's All Hope Is Gone mask. Maybe we should include all of the Sid Wilson's masks in the paragraph? 77.79.19.225 (talk) 16:07, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

Monkeyboy

Monkeyboy re-directs here, is this intentional?, if not maybe someone should delete it.
—Apis (talk) 16:07, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

I don't know who did that but Monkeyboy is a nickname that Sid Wilson is referred to, I'm not sure if it should be used in this encyclopedia though. REZTER ^TALK ø 20:21, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

He's left band, stop pretending he's still in the band.

https://metalinjection.net/news/breaking-slipknot-kicks-out-sid-wilson (IDK if this source is reliable) VitorFriboquen :] (Talk) 16:27, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

None of these sources are reliable because they're all quoting TMZ. Neither the band nor Wilson himself have published a statement, it's one single anonymous source that only told TMZ, for now. Nothing else. Seelentau (talk) 16:36, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

@Seelentau Haha... you think these sources aren't reliable, even though they're used in all kinds of articles...
Globo is reliable source in Brazil, like G1, O Globo, GE, Globoplay and etc. VitorFriboquen :] (Talk) 17:09, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

Cool, and they all quote TMZ who in turn relies on one single anonymous source. Meanwhile an actual member of the band says this. Seelentau (talk) 17:11, 1 August 2026 (UTC)

Damn, I didn't even know Jim Root said that...

What's more, there are people who believe he was kicked out of the band just because they saw a video on TikTok, as if it were true...

Anyone who believes that everything on the internet is true is a really dumb. [Citation not needed] VitorFriboquen :] (Talk) 17:18, 1 August 2026 (UTC)
