Rewrite / copyright violation / notability
[edit]I rewrote this article, due to the pretty poor state it used to be in. What little is left from the actual text body should probably be expanded with a short summary of the band's biography from the official site (not a verbatim copy of it). The copyright issue should be solved now, since the article contains nothing, most other band related articles sport, i.e. track listings and a promo photo. As for notability: The band appears to have several professionally produced and widely available albums under its belt and the official site isn't a random garage-band-myspace page. - Cyrus XIII 18:27, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
First sentence said it "was" a band but used present tense to say it "is" based in Dallas. Cleaned up the stupid first sentence. Deleted the founding date because it cluttered up a sentence that was getting too long and rickety. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2605:6000:EF05:6C00:43B:176D:FA4D:C59D (talk) 13:02, 3 July 2016 (UTC)
Copyright violation

Seriously, if someone wants this article to have a proper biography section so bad, that person should just sit down and write one up - with proper references of course. - Cyrus XIII 13:51, 1 February 2007 (UTC)
Classification issues
[edit]I cannot seem to find any justifiable reason nor reference to cite for Fair to Midland being listed as Metal. Albeit, it does say "Folk Metal" and the band does clearly exemplify folk influences but I feel use of 'metal' should be reviewed as it is misleading, mis-representative and convolutes a classification which should be striving for a concise simplicity.

Fourth Studio Album
[edit]I removed the "untitled studio album" entry from the list since it seems no one seems to have any idea what it will be titled, nor can they agree on whether it will be released in 2009 or 2010. Sigurj (talk) 00:18, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
Clean up of "Fourth studio album"
[edit]it seems the paragraph is just a bunch of garbled up information from the first mention of the new album to present day. so since this article is only updated when the band release song names.i will do some modifications , also i moved the crash to its own sectionProxysix (talk) 04:33, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
"Fourth Studio Album" Spam
[edit]Does anybody know why people keep changing the album title to either inappropriate or simply incorrect names? I just corrected it a few hours ago, and it's already been changed. As a member of the official Fair to Midland forum, there is significant speculation regarding the album title, and Arrows and Anchors is considered to be the most likely at this point. --Beatlehippie (talk) 05:33, 6 February 2011 (UTC)
Use of "was" in the introduction
[edit]No official source -- the band or anybody well-connected to the band -- have confirmed that Fair to Midland is no more, so the introduction should not be "Fair to Midland "was" a ..." it should be "is" until this is confirmed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.209.106.237 (talk) 07:06, 31 July 2013 (UTC)
