 * Thanks for the post here. I was looking through the edit history to find the edit in question but was having difficulty. Should a little section about this story be added to the article? Iṣṭa Devatā (talk) 16:18, 3 December 2015 (UTC)

About 28 articles at this time. The Guardian, Billboard, Gizmodo, The Independent, etc. --Super Goku V (talk) 17:24, 3 December 2015 (UTC)


 * Added a bit, with a primary source and BBC + guardian as supporting sources. Not sure whether people will bother to vandalise this page much now, but fear that at every gig for every band in the near future, we'll see copycat chancers tampering with articles!

 * Well, security for the band knows this trick by now so... Lots42 (talk) 16:09, 4 December 2015 (UTC)


 * It is clear that the band was not duped and knew exactly what had happened, they just thought it was so creative that they invited him backstage. Yet another reminder the vast majority of the world's population thinks that Wikipedia is magical.--Milowent • hasspoken  21:59, 4 December 2015 (UTC)
