[edit] POV

"blessed", "clearly head and shoulders above" Need I say any more? Molerat 17:26, 22 March 2006 (UTC)

Unfortunately, since the last time I checked, Wikipedia:Neutral point of view issues have not been resolved, so I've replaced the POV tag. Molerat 19:54, 29 May 2006 (UTC)

Why do you care? They are a pretty small band, but they will be sorely missed by the ska punk scene, the fact the goon even have an article is testament to that, the effort of POVing seems to much considering no0ne else visiting this article will care. Sambrackley 11:25, 30 May 2006

Because it's Wikipedia policy. All articles should have a neutral point of view, whether it requires effort or not. Molerat 20:34, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

And please don't remove the POV tag before the issues have been addressed. Molerat 20:36, 30 May 2006 (UTC)

"blessed" may be a bit too much, but I don't see much issue with "clearly heads and shoulders above" (perhaps the "clearly" should be removed) as all it means is that they were considered the "definitive"[1] UK ska punk band when they were about, which seems pretty neutral when it can be backed up by what sparse resources there are. I'm removing the pov tag, as it seems a bit drastic for what appears to be one word that's causing issue, by all means edit the article or discuss alternatives here though.
