An appeal to American Records: in an objective way, create a better entry than this - Dimwit and Frank deserve more, as does the band.

I agree, I loved this band and still regularly listen to thier music. They were unlucky in so many ways and thier music desrved a far wider audience than it ever managed to achieve. I've done my best to clean this up, but it would be nice if someone from one of the labels could flesh it out more. --ThePaintedOne 15:59, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've added the page to wikiproject musicians and also uploaded a picture under the fair use criteria. This my first time doing either of these and I'd apreciate if someone could check I've done everything correctly--ThePaintedOne 10:18, 13 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you to the anonymous author who added the link to the new official website and details of Left for Dead. It's the first I've heard of this and I definitely want to get it. That will also probably be an excellent source to clean up the article once I can get a copy. At the moment, most of the info is un-sourced and it could really do with cleaning up. --ThePaintedOne 08:25, 30 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Three years later and having been prompted by a passing editor who tagged the article, I had a good look and realised the article quality was rather low. No inline cites, poor formatting, etc. I've done a major re-write, adding cites and updating the history to reflect some new cites I found. The exact ordering of some events (esp around the breakup of the band, Dimwit's death and the recording and release of the second album) is not hugely clear from the various refs, which slightly contradict each other. I think I've got the gist of it, but if anyone wants to update (with refs) to a different version please go ahead. I think the article is about as good as it can be now for a band who while excellent (still one of my all time favorites 20 years later), were not hugely notable and aren't likely to ever do much else now.--ThePaintedOne (talk) 08:58, 22 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]
