Talk:Pulp (band)

Arabicus or Arabacus Pulp?
For years, this article said that the band's first name was "Arabacus Pulp", referencing the biography by Mark Sturdy (2003). Now it says "Arabicus Pulp", still referencing the same work. Is this change based on consulting the actual book? At Google Books, I find both spellings, also in earlier works - e.g. this article from 1996 says indeed "Arabacus", not Arabicus, also "The Rough Guide to Rock", 2003. Access to the book by Sturdy seems to be restricted at Google Books, not even allowing searching the book / snippet preview, so I can't say whether Sturdy has actually "Arabicus" or "Arabacus".

 * I changed it, the book is in front of me here, it says "Arabicus" throughout. Further evidence here - http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q276/james-errington/Sticker.jpg 阝工巳几千凹父工氐 (talk) 05:34, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks! Then I'm going to change this over at the German Wikipedia, too. The misspelling "Arabacus" seems to be widespread... Gestumblindi (talk) 02:00, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Timeline issues
Hi all. I originally put together the timeline of band members, a little under a decade ago, I think it was. A problem with this band is that they had changing lineups and delayed release dates - this means that the timeline is wrong, or at least very misleading, for the first three LPs at least. It, for example, features Simon Hinkler and not Tim Alcard - the timeline shows the reverse. Separations may well have been released in 1992, but it certainly is not a reflection of the band in that year. I set it up with recording dates rather than release dates for this exact reason, and I'm going to change it back. So if anyone wonders why this is, here is the explanation. 阝工巳几千凹父工氐 (talk) 20:39, 9 September 2023 (UTC)
