[edit] Noncompliance

Looks like this article was written either by its subject or by a fan. It contains numerous POV statements, and a lot of unnecessary trivia. I'd also question the subject's notability, but amn't really au fait enough with the scene to know for sure. Cheers, --Plumbago 10:32, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

I've cleaned this up a bit, hope its now in a decent enough state.Owenhatherley 04:16, 8 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Link to The Cassettes

I believe the link to "the cassettes" links to another band called the cassettes, not the one that monster bobby is in. Not quite sure how to change it properly. --Sinkingpie 22:28, 13 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Style & dubious claims

"He developed the idea of a modern girl group"? What were all the others, then? While I am an admirer of what he's done in manufacturing The Pipettes, an article can't make claims like this. At the moment the article reads like a cross between an advert and a fan page, in contrast to the high standard of the stubs for the other Pipettes members. Iridescenti 22:43, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hobbes Weirdsister College

The link for the actor of the character Hobbes from the TV Show Weirdsister College re-directs here. Assuming it's the same Bobby Barry (the face shape looks right, but the MySpace picture is blurry so I'm not positive) should the fact the fact that he played Hobbes be mentioned in here somewhere?
