[edit] Article quality

The quality of this article is very poor, with quotes like "To start our journey of learning ...", and "It took lots of mutation and toxic waste, for Godzilla anyway", plus the fact that swathes of text were apparently lifted verbatim from the band's web site, lending to the un-encylopedic tone. Probably multiple violations of WP:V, WP:OR, WP:NOTE and WP:NPOV. I'm not sure what the best approach is here; I would like a more experienced editor to chime in. May be a candidate for AfD.

Agreed, I'd somehow cite and not edit the history as it is taken from the site, but things like 'the merch guy' are not incorect, but they sound more like sommin to be put on the simpel english wikipedia, we have to make this stuff more fancy and educated sounding...and...stuff. --Mudel 17:21, 13 December 2006 (UTC) WIll work on it, eventually.

I removed the biography which was copied from psychostick.com (in violation of copyright). MarkBrooks 04:04, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] What?

Exactly why has an editor expressed concern with the title? Psychostick furfill more than one criteria to have the right to their own wikipage, so when can we remove that tag? --Mudel 14:18, 1 January 2007 (UTC)

Immediately, if that is indeed the case. Which criteria from WP:Music#Criteria_for_musicians_and_ensembles do they fulfill? The most likely indication for a band being notable is having two or more albums released on a major label. I'm not sure from the article if they have one or two albums released (the same title is given for releases in 2003 and 2006), but their label does not qualify as "an independent label with a history of more than a few years ...", and is certainly not a major label.

They're going on tour, how's that? Also I added the Allmusic link, it's a reliable source, and they have composed a number of melodies, tunes or standards used in a notable genre. And, they released one album. One was an INDEPENTED release (meaning: under no record label) the 2006 album was a re-release. That's when you put the same album out again, because people might buy more of it and you usally put some extra material on it. It can also be done under a diffrent label, as they did. --Mudel 19:08, 2 January 2007 (UTC)
