Overall: can you please add an infobox to the article? it is also good to include the band active years too if you can. Waiting for a QPQ FuzzyMagma (talk) 12:26, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

Started the infobox, will finish it later.--Laun chba ller 21:14, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

FuzzyMagma: Haven't been able to find for definite when they were active (AllMusic gives to 1963-1967/1968, but which is it, and they reunited in 1995 - were they still going 1997 when It's Shocking came out?), but I have added an infobox, and I've completed a QPQ: Template:Did you know nominations/2023 Canadian federal worker strike.--Laun chba ller 08:41, 12 June 2023 (UTC)

@Launchballer: thanks for adding the infobox and QPQ. I have tweaked the hook grammatically
