In the "members" section under Sarah Harding, change "since 2023" to "died 2021" or "deceased", because the wording for "since 2023" doesn't make sense because Harding died in 2021 and remaining members of Girls Aloud announced their reunion in 2023, unless if they consider her as an "Eternal Member", which might be a violation of MOS:EUPHEMISM. 2603:6081:893D:13AC:D806:CF25:DE2C:EEAC (talk) 01:00, 26 July 2024 (UTC)

British-Irish "citation needed"
The articles for the individual singers sufficiently establish their nationalities, it therefore follows logically that the band is British-Irish because that is what that means. By way of comparison, the article on Houston Stewart Chamberlain establishes that he was born in the United Kingdom to British parents and subsequently took German citizenship; the lede therefore describes him as "British-German" and there is no need for a separate source for this. (In the event, that article fails to provide a particular source for his place of birth and parentage, which could probably do with fixing, but that's not the issue here.) -- Newbiepedian (talk · C · X! · L) 16:01, 10 July 2025 (UTC)
