Great article! It's very informative. Did you write it?

Wikipedia (busy as always) has proposed the article for deletion for lack of notability though.  :roll: According to their own guidelines, it is notable. See this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Notability_%28music%29, which states a little further down that a music group is notable if it "contains at least one member who was once a part of or later joined a band that is otherwise notable" which should be the case with Duff, but you never know ... maybe they don't think VR and GnR are notable  :roll:

Even though it's off-topic ... I submitted an article to the German Wikipedia once and they deleted it for reasons of copyright infringement ... because I had the same article on my own website as well. I had a long discussion with them, but they told me, I had to re-write my own article as to not infringe my own copyright. I thought that was rather funny and told them I had better things to do with my time.

I put the information together but AxlReznor from the VR forum did the actual writing.

Apparently the problem is the way the article is worded.  It doesn't explicitly spell out why the band are worth mentioning.  But it shouldn't be a problem, between Duff, Paul Solger and inspiring a genre that defined music for the next decade they're not exactly short on reasons to be there.

Ok gave it a complete overhaul, including one of those boxes down the side, so it now not only looks like a real band page but should also be up to their standards.  Hopefully.

But still if anyone knows anything that can be added it'd be really appreciated!
