Talk:Bills

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Good article Bills was one of the Social sciences and society good articles, but it has been removed from the list. There are suggestions below for improving the article to meet the good article criteria. Once these issues have been addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake.

[edit] Gang or no?

I got here by a link from gang, but nothing in this article asserts that the Bills constituted a gang, rather than a subculture. Either they did constitute a gang, and this should be in Category:Gangs, or they didn't, and that link should be removed as misleading. -- Jmabel | Talk 06:02, 16 September 2005 (UTC)

They were a set of gangs. Each gang had it's own leader, and their own territories (which they fought over). Rather than create articles for each individual Bills gang (they had names like Dallas, Godzilla, Santa Fe, Texas) in order to apply the category Gang, which would be a bit excessive, I put the Bills link in the Gang article. - Xed 07:36, 16 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Hindubill

Could anyone give examples of the Hindubill lingo? 81.232.72.53 11:54, 15 January 2006 (UTC)
