Auto-fail
I am failing this GAN on criterion #2 of the WP:Good article criteria ("Verifiable with no original research"). A significant portion of the article previously relied on unreliable, user-generated sources, including sites such as Discogs and setlist.fm, which do not meet Wikipedia's standards for verifiability per WP:RSP. I have now removed these sources, resulting the article becoming largely unsourced, with extensive portions of the content lacking any inline citations at all.
GA criterion 2 requires:
- the use of reliable, published sources, cited inline;
- that all challengeable material be verifiable;
- the absence of original research; and
- a complete, properly formatted reference list.
The article currently fails multiple aspects of this criterion. Much of the remaining content is unsupported, unverifiable, or presented without attribution. These issues are too extensive to address during the course of a review, and the article is not close to meeting the sourcing expectations required for GA status. For these reasons, I must fail this nomination. The article will need substantial improvement through consistently applied, reliable sourcing before it can be reconsidered for a future GAN. --Sricsi (talk) 07:59, 3 May 2026 (UTC)
