What's the story?
I've had this page on my watch list since I don't know when. I originally tagged it as an article of dubious accuracy. The page basically argues that "What's the story?" is a common phrase in the UK since Oasis album (What's the Story) Morning Glory?. Even if some Wikibrit could confirm that this fad existed at some point, I highly doubt that it ever caught on or lived long enough to deserve an article. Pascal.Tesson 21:37, 3 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete as WP:OR. As a London teenager during the "Cool Britannia" years, I find this article's claim dubious. "What's the story" is a phrase which existed before Oasis, though its not very common (though not limited to the UK either). It may have become a little more common during the Oasis's popularity peak. But in any case, the article has no references and its very subject is banal and unencyclopedic.
