Need help with citations please in "In other media" section

Someone added that Krist has a blog but put a wrong link and name. It's not called "Dream Journal", and the user linked an archive.org wayback machine link. Krist's current blog is called "Deep River Dispatch" (though it says Krist Novoselic at top of page, down the page is says "more Deep River Dispatch" to link older posts on the blog. The URL of his blog is https://deepriverdispatch.com

I tried fixing it but I got a conflict because a previous section cited the same citation apparently (or sited the wayback machine link but somehow it conflicted). I don't know how to fix this. I reverted my two edits but can someone who knows Wiki markup better than I take a look at it please?

The other part of the article that links the same URL is the part that says "A self-titled album was released in April 2022, with eleven songs recorded at The Bait Shop, in Ballard, Washington, as well as Novoselic's home.[94]"

The recent edit I'm trying to fix links Krist's blog as "Dream Journal" at a dead link: https://web.archive.org/web/20170606122311/http://deepriverdispatch.com/index.php/2017/04/28/dream-journal-1/

thanks.

Timeline

In the career section (1987-1997), the last line suggests Novoselic pushed for a 20th Anniversary of the Nevermind album. How could it have been 20 years from 1991 in 1994? The sentence facts seem misplaced in the article timeline. — Preceding unsigned comment added by SquashEngineer (talk • contribs) 16:16, 2 June 2023 (UTC)[reply]

the linked novoselic.com website is instead linked to a scam site

looking up the wikipedia page on a web browser will have his 'website' linked under his name, this leads to a scam site however NotQualified (talk) 18:10, 31 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion to change page name

I suggest this page name be changed to Chris Novoselic. It says on the official Nirvana Spotify page that his name is Chris Novoselic (born Krist Novoselic) suggesting that his name was legally changed.

His name of Krist never changed, but the Anglicized version as "Chris" was, if memory serves, used on earlier Nirvana releases. It might be worth adding a sentence to this article explaining that Chris Novoselic and Krist Novoselic are indeed the same person. CAVincent (talk) 22:37, 28 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I know this comment is a few months old, but Krist goes by Krist. He did an oral history for the state of Washington and that is how he spelled it. Reportersteven (talk) 01:37, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
