[edit] Language concerns

Please clean up the English on this page. It is quite non-idiomatic. Amber388 13:59, 13 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article is possibly lifted from another site - needs to be re-written.

This article needs to be re-written. I was reading it contemplating an edit because it is cited as having spelling errors. I came across a word, "epynomus", that I was not familar with. When I did a Yahoo search on it, the word appears on sites that the exact same spelling and all are about Ha-Ash. What a coincidence? NOT! If you don't believe me, do an internet search on "epynomus" and you will find mostly result hits with Ha-Ash and that word. Here is one example: [2]. Ronbo76 05:21, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

  • The reason you see that same language at the answers.com site is that answers.com is using Wikipedia content- please read the title above the article which cites Wikipedia. Rjhatl 17:30, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Initial suggestion is to delete the biography section which is the lifted material

Most of the article "borrowed" or copied from another site appear in the biography section. I recommend deleting that section and beginning the article anew. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ronbo76 (talkcontribs) 05:23, 7 December 2006 (UTC).

[edit] Why is this group mis-named?

This group's name is Ha-Ash. Why are they called "Ha*Ash" here? 71.142.221.66 22:30, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

I don't know, check the official website, they seem to use Ha*Ash and Ha-Ash sparingly, although the CDs are spelled Ha*Ash (with a star not an asterisk).Solid Reign 23:43, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

The group's name comes from combining the first names of the singing duo (Hanna and Ashley); thus, they are Ha-Ash in print and most media listings. An asterisk or star would probably be used on a CD as a form of embellishment. Recommend change to the way their name appears in print and as displayed in CD bins: Ha-Ash Ronbo76 23:54, 14 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Notoriety?

The article was tagged by an editor who questioned the notoriety of Ha-Ash. I'm not sure why this is still there, as the article points out that they've released several albums, and had songs on hit charts. Is there a concern I'm missing, or can we go ahead and take the notoriety template off? Rjhatl 17:30, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Powerpop

I think Powerpop should be added to their genres. Allison isn't powerpop by the way.
