[edit] Ethical Code?

The intro states that they are known for their 'ethical code' but never directly states what it is appart from through obscure references Mjbowell 21:41, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Added Image

Added image I shot of Justin Sullivan, and an infobox. -- Xinit 18:51, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Carnival

The linking of the Carnival wikipedia article from the name of the NMA album here seems pointless...J-Deeks 20:32, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

Right, it should be linked to Carnival (New Model Army), like in the discography. I've fixed it. -David Schaich ^Talk/_Cont 20:48, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Objectivity

This article lacks objecivity. New Model Army was criticized in the 1980s for signing with a major label. See the interview with Flux of Pink Indians in Maximumrocknroll no. 64, September 1988, at www.operationphoenixrecords.com —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 70.51.121.135 (talk • contribs) 15:27, 30 April 2007 (UTC) (Moved here from article by David Schaich ^Talk/_Cont 18:13, 30 April 2007 (UTC)).

The Overview section tells me that I "should" view them this way or that and reads like a convoluted apologia rather than a Wikipedia article. This section should be re-written. --SianMycock 05:24, 11 September 2007 (UTC)

This reads to me like a fansite, with little or no objectivity. The 'Biography' section is nothing of the sort - there is no account of how the band came to be, nor any chronology in respect of personnel, releases, popularity, critical reaction etc. I believe the entire page needs an objectivity overhaul.
