The Enemies
The band The Enemies don't appear to meet WP:BAND notability. I suggest that the article be merged here until they are signed, have a hit single, etc. Lone boatman (talk) 13:52, 23 August 2012 (UTC)

Birthdate source
I changed the citation for his birthdate because the cleveland.com source looked to me like the kind of article where the writer likely pulled up Wikipedia, IMDB, etc to get a list of famous birthdays without thoroughly verifying that they were accurate, and I wanted to find a more trustworthy source to make sure there wasn't any potential citogenesis. His Twitter profile does say "Born January 26" (fourth line of the bio, next to "Ireland" and "Joined May 2011"), and the IrishCentral article  says he was 29 as of January 19, 2011, which supports him being born in 1981. I'm happy to discuss if you disagree about the sources! Aerin17 (t • c) 01:14, 9 July 2023 (UTC)


 * If you rather use a self-published source on a WP:BLP rather than a newspaper, then so be it. I'm not going to argue about it.  They all support the same date.  Mike   Allen   01:24, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
 * It is his own verified Twitter account, which is explicitly permitted per WP:ABOUTSELF and probably a better source about his own birthday than a local newspaper. I'm going to go ahead and change it back, if you don't feel that strongly (and, yeah, it doesn't matter that much). Aerin17 (t • c) 01:57, 9 July 2023 (UTC)
