Talk:The Greencards

Lead
If the Lead was reduced to three succinct paragraphs, I would review (and probably pass) this article.--andreasegde (talk) 22:27, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Obviously not much interest, so I withdraw my offer.--andreasegde (talk) 22:17, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Sorry, I missed this--been swamped in an RFAR case. Give me a day? Will reply on your talk also. rootology ( C )( T ) 22:34, 7 September 2008 (UTC)
 * I keep staring at it, but what remains is the core main points about the band in summary form, down to three paragraphs. How does it look now? rootology ( C )( T ) 23:52, 7 September 2008 (UTC)

If you would like, I could spend an hour going through the article to clean some things. It would do away with a long drawn-out explanation about what's wrong on this page, and save us both a lot of time. (I have done a lot of work on these...)--andreasegde (talk) 13:56, 8 September 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes please! I would love it. rootology ( C )( T ) 15:16, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

OK, I will state that I am reviewing this article (it may take a few days) but I will take some time to clean it, and then pass it.--andreasegde (talk) 21:02, 8 September 2008 (UTC)

Interviews
Just leaving this here for when I have a chance to listen through for more material. rootology ( C )( T ) 22:47, 4 October 2008 (UTC)

Sources for new album
Just doing a dump till I can get back to it...

Update needed
The article fails to discuss their latest album and discusses the one before that as if it has not been released yet. What's more, there is no explanation within the article of how the group's lineup has changed. Brutannica (talk) 04:41, 28 April 2017 (UTC)

FA concerns
This older FA is extremely out of date. Two of the members, Miner and Bulla, aren't mentioned in the main body at all, and neither is former member Andal. The Buy a Brick campaign is the most recent history discussed, and it's from 10 years ago. The Brick Album and Sweethearts of the Sun, their two most recent albums, aren't really discussed at all. There's massive updating needed here. Furthermore, some of the sources may not be reliable: Americana Homepage, Cybergrass, and maybe a couple of the others. A lot of work is needed here, and a featured article review may be necessary. Hog Farm Talk 03:50, 5 June 2021 (UTC)
