The Complex (band)
[edit]- ... that Kevin Shields was influenced by "a noise generator" while with The Complex?

- The hook is confusing and needs work, especially the part about the noise generator; the date is okay; length is good; neutrality is good; the references are difficult to check. Haven't checked copyvio yet. --evrik (talk) 16:52, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- I fail to see anything confusing with the hook as it is. (person) was influenced by (other person/thing) while with (band) isn't exactly the most complex pattern around... — Crisco 1492 (talk) 22:58, 13 March 2013 (UTC)
- Article - created new on 12 March, so new enough; 2678 characters of readable prose, so long enough; neutral; at least one inline citation to every paragraph; no copy vios detected using earwig/duplication detector - the only matches being flagged are within quotes; and un-assessed so not a stub.
- Hook - easily within length criteria at concise 80 characters, so short and snappy; correctly formatted; correctly cited/supported by ref #7 in 'Musical style' section; and interesting enough for me to look at when I don't do songs/bands!
- No QPQ required as not a self nom; no image.
Everything checks out (with AGF for offline ref) - article has had a speedy delete tag but it was contested/removed. SagaciousPhil - Chat 10:29, 15 March 2013 (UTC)
