Copied "Erek and Ivor" to your user space per your request. -- Alexf42 20:01, 12 July 2008 (UTC)

If you provide me with some reliable sources, I'll work on your article
To avoid a conflict of interest, if you will provide me with some reliable sources to use as references, I'll write the article for placement at Vanguard (band). I'm looking for Rolling Stone mentions/reviews, as well as Spin, Blender, Paste, or even links to large local newspaper stories for references. Simply drop a note on my talkpage once you have some references lined up. Regards, S. Dean Jameson 20:16, 12 July 2008 (UTC)


 * Thanks so much Dean! The most thorough coverage of the band comes from JesusMetal.com, which provides an interview and a review of the band's EP.


 * Google also shows the band as listed on the Encyclopedia Metallum, and FireStream.


 * I hope these sources suffice and are reliable for a start, and I also have an inquiry. Is a band's own personal publication, such as blogs or interviews, considered a valid source?


 * Thanks again Dean.
