Page development

Hey again @Launchballer! Here's another really great artist that I have no idea why I haven't made a page for yet, have seen her live supporting James Marriott and Swim School, amazing every time! There's some great sources talking about her which i have pre-added to the article for you to have a look at so thought a page for her could be good! George (talk) 22:54, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Georgeykiwi: I forgot to point out that ever since my David Fishwick DYK timed out, I've been waiting until after they've finished there to nominate them for GA just in case. (I have two quite old multi-noms at T:TDYKA that might do that.) I'm assuming you've seen Piri & Tommy's show at Corsica Studios next month - do you plan on going? (And if so, do you know if they have seats, because I'm 240kg...)--Laun chba ller 18:38, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Ah okay. I’m not sure how DYK works to be honest. Yeah I do have a ticket for the show! I do believe it’s just ‘general admission’ though & i’ve looked at the venue online and it looks like standing only unfortunately. George (talk) 20:22, 24 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

QPQ: Done.

Overall:

Meets the size and time(well, for when it was nominated), has a healthy collection of reliable sources (although I am personally more skeptical by default of magazine sources like this, I think they're good here after a quick check over of WP:V, and a requested second glance.) Personally, I'll strongly push for ALT2, since ALT0 does not pass WP:DYKINT in my view, and ALT1 is borderline. Anyways, thanks @Launchballer:

Can y'all...

Can y'all please fill this article out with sourced stuff about why Lizzie is significant? I'm deleting where she grew up from the lead, for instance. Read some other articles about musicians and you'll get what I mean. Thanks. Billyshiverstick (talk) 00:36, 9 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
