[edit] Band Members
Ok, there isnt much on the actual band members, soo i was thinking of just creating one single artical for all 4 members of the band, instead of the 4 pages (one for each member, except iwan as his page was deleted.)
anyone agree this would be a good idea???
[edit] Date
I went to school with the Automatic. They have been gigging for years, way before 2004. can somebody change this to about 2002? I don't know how.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 131.111.238.108 (talk • contribs) 13:13, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
- Will do. Thanks. Oggy 14:13, 27 May 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Picture
Hi, I put a picture in but it won't work because I don't know how to insert pictures from websites. If someone clever would like to fix it up for me it'd be great, thanks in advance.

- You have to upload the image first. First, save the picture onto your computer. (Probably into 'My Documents'.) Then, go here, use the 'Browse' button to find the file, give it a title, select a license from the menu, and upload it. See Wikipedia:Uploading images for more. Hope that helps.

[edit] Influences
I've removed the bit that says they're influenced by "everyone" because that's ridiculous. I've included Jarcrew in their brief influence list because apart from the fact that they've taken Jarcrew to town so badly that they should probably write them a cheque, the Jarcrew "connection" has been acknowledged several times by the band, including as a comment on a Jarcrew FanSpace. John..
[edit] The 'GMTV Incident'
I removed everything that was written about what happened on GMTV for a couple of reasons:
- It was mentioned twice! If it's going to be mentioned at all it should only be a short reference.
- One mention of it wasn't very neutral - "in a failed attempt to increase their credibility".
- The other mention probably needed some severe rewriting.
If anyone wants to add it back in then can I ask that you just note my comments. I'll have some time to improve other bits of the article in the coming few days. Thanks. Oggy 14:53, 31 July 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Singles
ok the automatic have 5 singles, would it be better to keep just the current 3 on the main page? and then have the full 5 singles on the Not Accepted Anywhere page, as well i thought it may look quite good if there were pictures for each band member with there name, if that even makes sense. oh and some of the pictures i have recently uploaded for use on the automatics page may disapear some time soon, i keep forgeting the license stuff, just to let anyone who edits this page know!
