Therfore i believe this band achieves the impotance criteria —Preceding unsigned comment added by Fabrib (talk • contribs)

  • This band may well be notable enough, but as the article stands now it is difficult to tell. Wikipedia has very specific guidelines as to which musical groups are notable enough to warrant their own article. The band must meet one or more of the twelve criteria set forth in Wikipedia:Notability (music). If you or someone else does not add some independent, verifiable information that meets at least one of these criteria, the article will eventually be deleted by an admin. If you think the band meets one or more of the criteria, please add it and make sure you provide the citation to an outside source. Thanks and good luck. --Satori Son 17:49, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

I think they achieve the importance criteria,

  • Has gone on an international concert tour, or a national concert tour in at least one large or medium-sized country,[1] reported in notable and verifiable sources.

as they are listed to be fuetured in major Uk music festivals. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.41.146.47 (talk) 19:33, June 30, 2006

The've also appeared in the Phoenix Indie Chart Show, 10 June 2006[1]

[edit] Box

Isn't the box below the pages a bit overkill? Not all pages are fully filled, and I don't think it's necessary to already make seperate pages for the band members. I don't think that box is needed just for browsing through the singles.

I agree, Mr Unsigned Comment. All it does is put all the singles inside one box with the album....which is sort of already done directly above it in their single listings. I vote remove. --SteelersFan UK06 02:30, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
Sorry I forgot to sign. How many "votes" do we need you reckon? Hans 12:30, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
To hell with votes, man. It clearly looks stupid. Be bold and just send it to hell.... --SteelersFan UK06 13:21, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
Ok.Hans 16:43, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Years active?

The article states 2004, but they must be together much longer than 2004. [Borders (song)|Borders] vinyl #2 features a B-side called "2002" wich is a recording that has been lost for like 5 years and has been found and remastered as a b-side. It was recorded in a record shop back in 2002. I don't know exactly when they started, but 2004, no. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hzoons (talk • contribs) 10:59, August 28, 2007 (UTC)

Basically just have to have a scout about for a start date. If their personal website says 2004, then it should be 2004, regardless of this B-side. Its entirely possible that this was made as well as them starting in 2004, bands can have been in previous formats/names prior to their currect one (see "Union"). Have a look basically. --SteelersFan UK06 14:30, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
Did my research, (http://www.tsuarmy.co.uk/biography.php) states they were formed "6 years ago". As the text was last updated in 2006, 2000 it is. --Hans 14:51, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
sounds good, that can be put in the page then. NO idea where the 2004 thing came from. Source the date if you can (sounds silly but it looks good) --SteelersFan UK06 22:55, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mr Jonanthan?

Can anyone source? Joke? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.201.43.85 (talk) 18:18, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Seriously, does anyone have any idea who Mr. Johnatan is and when he "joined the band"? If it can't be sourced, I suggest deletion?Hans 08:30, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Tsu bandlogo.PNG

Image:Tsu bandlogo.PNG is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Let's fix the thing. We all want to keep the logo don't we? Any idea how to make that damn fair use rationale work properly?--Hans 18:17, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
Ok, I gave it a shot, used the wiki template for fair use rationales specificcaly for logo's. Hope that'll do the trick. --Hans 18:25, 24 October 2007 (UTC)
