Post-FAC comments[edit]
Hi Ajpolino and Pseud 14. Since the previous FAC has been closed without promotion, I have started this topic so that hopefully you guys can continue with all your issues that needs to be resolved, before opening a third one. — VAUGHAN J. (t · c) 04:18, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Ajpolino and Pseud 14: Don't know if you all got my previous message. — VAUGHAN J. (t · c) 00:04, 15 June 2024 (UTC)
- Hi Vaughan J., thank you for the ping. I'm currently short on time, and am having trouble keeping up with WP editing tasks. Hoping to be back at it before too long, and then I can take a look at this. In the meantime, I'd suggest reaching out to editors who have recently shepherded music-related articles through FAC. They'll be best-suited to give constructive criticism and prepare you for the next FAC run. Best, Ajpolino (talk) 14:31, 20 June 2024 (UTC)
Comments[edit]
Ajpolino (oppose)[edit]
Despite your decision to oppose the article, we were still carrying on to resolve more issues. Before closure, I cleaned up the whole article, now having less references than what was like before. Just waiting for review. — VAUGHAN J. (t · c) 04:19, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
Pseud 14[edit]
Before closure, you were down to the 1990–1999: Popularity regained section. — VAUGHAN J. (t · c) 04:19, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
- Apologies for the delay. I do agree with Ajpolino. I'll take a look on the prose after the fixes. I would assume, given the sourcing spot-checks to be made, that changes to the prose are to be expected. I can have another look by then on your next run. Pseud 14 (talk) 17:21, 1 July 2024 (UTC)

There is a man named Simon Hury in the member timeline listed as "fan." This is ridiculous, he is not a member of the band. JohnnyPStevens (talk) 15:28, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- I don't see a Hury in this listicle nor the article whose talk page you're in, what are you talking about? Carlinal (talk) 15:35, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- Not done: Name not in this article. - FlightTime (open channel) 16:29, 19 April 2024 (UTC)
- What are you talking about...? Hury is not listed in the article at all? ― VAUGHAN J. (t · c) 00:31, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
- I'm not sure what you mean. I checked earlier today, and I saw no mention of Simon Hury in the member timeline. HorrorLover555 (talk) 02:24, 20 April 2024 (UTC)
Clarification[edit]
Readding this back, so that I could get some of you guys get some clarification. I think he's saying that Hury was in the article because of this image on the right. I'm pretty sure what he's saying is that the image probably needs to be deleted? — VAUGHAN J. (t · c) 10:35, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
- I agree that the image should be removed to avoid confusion. HorrorLover555 (talk) 13:55, 5 July 2024 (UTC)
