Page Layout

does this page really need all the little headings for each of the singles? the contents look crazy and its going to get longer and longer... Salamander4000 14:07, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

POV

hey guys,

"They have also received unprecedented (for a pop group) praise from the 'serious' music press" - i would argue with the use of the word unprecedented, since pop groups such as the human league, abc etc. got high praise in the 80s and furthermore groups such as destinys child were widely admired by nme at the turn of the century. whether you call them r'n'b or not. don_quixote 15:45 11 March 2006 (don_quixote)

This page is biased! 150.204.49.17 10:39, 18 August 2005 (UTC)

Vandalism

Some retard keeps calling it Slags Aloud. Theyre probably really ugly and jealous. Fixed it.

The way that Nicola's ugly and jealous of Dannii?

Shouldn't the article's title be Girls Aloud? Rienzo 02:43, 1 May 2004 (UTC)

Fixed. Lee M 02:48, 1 May 2004 (UTC)

SOTU Album release date

Bit confused about when "Sound Of The Underground" album was released - Amazon says it was released on Dec 1st (2003), and the first single was released on Dec 16th - this doesn't sound right to me, can anyone confirm this order was right? Oh yeah, anonymous changes to article on Nov 9th 2004 were me, I forgot to sign in. pomegranate 22:58, Nov 9, 2004 (UTC)

Allmusic.com says 28 January, HMV say 1 December, their official site doesn't seem to have the details. Not much help, sorry! violet/riga (t) 23:12, 9 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Are those dates just for the album's release? 'Cos Jan 28 would make more sense to me. pomegranate 23:43, Nov 9, 2004 (UTC)

Yes they are, odd isn't it? violet/riga (t) 09:27, 10 Nov 2004 (UTC)

Hmm. I will take the chance and go with the January. pomegranate 21:13, Nov 10, 2004 (UTC)

ANSWER Sound Of The Underground, the single, was released on December 16th 2002. The album of the same name followed on May 26th 2003. A re-issued version of the album was released on December 1st 2003.

Ah thanks, this sheds more light on some inconsistencies. Could anybody please give me a clue why there's only the 'clean' version on the SOTU album? ("shut your mouth because it might show") - Usually, even with rap albums, the uncensored versions ARE found on the album. -andy 80.129.75.16 00:57, 13 February 2006 (UTC)

DOBs

Was it my imagination, or did an earlier version of this page give their dates of birth as all in the 1983-1984 range? -- Smjg 16:01, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

Polish chart peaks?

Where from they come, pOland doesn't have any singles chart, only radio charts, airplay charts and TV charts that doesn't coun tthe low sales of singles, just SMS votes.

Which Girl Aloud?

Help identify these members of Girls Aloud please. First off the easy ones I got, the ginger one and the blonde one:

• Nicola Roberts
• Sarah Harding

and the ones I don't, one brunette, two highlighted "blondes", and they all look the same. Take your pic from Cheryl Tweedy, Nadine Coyle and Kimberley Walsh

• Girl Aloud 1
• Girl Aloud 2
• Girl Aloud 3

(all images are on the commons, so could you note the results there please.). I think I must be showing my age. Cheers. Dunc|☺ 00:51, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

1 is Cheryl (or Ashley Cole's bit of fluff)

2 is Kimberley

3 is a really bad picture of Nadine, seemingly sans makeup.

I've answered here as well, in case I've not put the name in the right place on the commons (as I never use it). And the ginger one is the best. Proto t c 10:41, 3 September 2005 (UTC)

Actually I'm pretty sure you've got 1 and 3 the wrong way round. Will you take another looks please. Theresa Knott (a tenth stroke) 20:58, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

Compare with their pictures on their CBBC profile - I'm pretty sure they're the right way round. Proto t c 08:40, 5 September 2005 (UTC)

Afraid you are wrong. 1=Nadine (roundish face), 2=Cheryl (eyes), 3=Kimberley (dark hair). If you need a source then: PTSE 16:41, 9 September 2005 (UTC)

ANSWER

• Nadine Coyle
• Cheryl Tweedy
• Kimberley Walsh

Eras

An 'era' is a long and distinct period of history with a particular feature or characteristic: fair enough for the most part, but the intervening year or so between albums is not long enough to count as an era. If we want to avoid simply using album names as sub-headings we need to use a more appropriate descriptor. Driller thriller 22:50, 20 May 2006 (UTC)

Images

I added this third image to the article, initially as the main photo, and i accept it might not have worked as well as I'd hoped in that context but when readding it to the article simply as illustration for the Chemistry section User:Sunfazer reverted my edits. Now I'm going to put the photo back in now because no explanation was given and I'd like other editors' opinions, not because I want to get into some stupid edit war about something so pathetic as a picture. Driller thriller 22:27, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

This page needs more pics, and I think to be honest the one you added was a very good and current one. Can't see a reason personally why it should be taken down, especially not without an explanation. 82.10.145.130 22:47, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

that's a great pic, why did he take it down? Maybe he's a wiki vandal? 15:03, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Controversial?

I don't get it: why? How? Driller thriller 15:43, 1 June 2006 (UTC)

It's not: tag removed; this makes a mockery of the controversial articles facility. 82.71.2.179 22:27, 4 June 2006 (UTC)
