Talk:Fluke (band)/GA1

GA Reassessment
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the reassessment.'' As part of WikiProject Good articles' Project quality task force ("GA Sweeps"), all old good articles are being re-reviewed to ensure that they meet current good article criteria (as detailed at WP:WIAGA.) I have determined that this article needs some work to meet current criteria, outlined below: I am putting the article on hold for one week, longer if work is done to address the above concerns.

 * There are significant numbers of unsourced statements in the article, among them:
 * "The attention that these records received successfully gained the band a record deal with Creation Records with whom they released their first CD single "Philly" in the same year."
 * "Along with the releases of these first two albums, Fluke also began their career-spanning tradition of releasing work of a different nature under various monikers."
 * "After a two year break Fluke returned with what was to be a breakthrough into mainstream popular music when, in 1993, they released the single "Slid". This single became an instant club classic when it was picked up by DJ Sasha who liked it so much that he included three separate remixes of it on his Renaissance album." (citation at the end of this returns a 404).
 * "The following year Fluke released their third album, Oto, which is the Greek for "of the ear". In terms of style, Oto was somewhat darker than Six Wheels on my Wagon, focusing on the downbeat ambient effects which were present in the second half of Six Wheels, and the band completely removed the uplifting house style that characterised their previous work. Owing to the decreased accessibility of the album as a result of this, only three singles were deemed suitable for release from Oto; "Bubble", "Bullet" and "Tosh"."
 * "With the group split it was seen fit to release two "Best Of" albums entitled Progressive History X, a compilation spanning their entire ten year producing history, and then in 2001, Progressive History XXX, a three CD box-set including many rare and hard to find mixes. Both releases were packaged with the artwork "Just Your Average Second On This Planet" 1997-1998 by David Bethell The box-set contained black, red, white and blue versions of the same original cover art, and also came with a poster of the silhouette image on one side and all other album covers on the flip."
 * Continuing on...
 * Tone: The article is filled with peacock terms, unsourced flattery, and biased phrasing. Most of these issues could be alleviated by removing cherry-picked quotations from critics given undue weight, and properly sourcing information.
 * One or two paragraph groups are not true paragraphs (by definition they need three or more sentences.) These quasiparagraphs need to be cut, merged, or expanded.
 * Non-free content like File:Fluke - Absurd Whitewash.ogg is used incorrectly, with little in the way of significant critical commentary as required by WP:NFCC.
 * As there have been no efforts to address the above, I am delisting. The article can be renominated at any time, but I encourage any nominator to address the above issues. Any questions or comments should be directed to my talk page. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ( talk ) 19:53, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
