Talk:808 State

message: I believe the content marked with "citation needed" should have citation appropriated, or the statements should be removed altogether. Statements such as "They were considered pioneers of the acid house sound, a staple and foundation of rave music" need work. -larsvolta
See WP:NPOV.  Several statements in the article are argumentative in nature, bordering on promotional. Alan 18:38, 20 April 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:808 State-Newbuild (album cover).jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

message: Formed where?  The article is confusing, it begins saying they were formed in Radcliffe, and continues with Bury? Parrot of Doom 21:49, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

"Ive know idea where theyve got Radclif from..Martin was from Bolton ,I was in Levenshulme aND GERALD WAS IN RUSHOLME WHEN WE STARTED,and we started in central MCR in the studio on Tariff Street called Spirit,its now known as SSR and is still functioning.

thread_title:  Not From Radcliffe 

message: I can't really see any point having a separate article for the band's discography. Neither the discography nor the main band article are very long, and half of the discography is already in the 808 State article anyway.--Michig (talk) 07:42, 25 March 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Merge 

message: Was just reading on the "Face to Face" wiki page that 808 State remixed the Batman Returns song by Siouxsie & the Banshees. Any idea what the remix(es) was/were titled?~ Fighter4luv (talk) 12:11, 13 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Face to Face? 

message: As a Japanese vandal continues to produce vandalism on nearly ALL 808 state articles, isn't it time that some of the articles of the band need to be protected? Thanks!

message: Looking back, 808 State seems to favor instruments that were a bit "retro," falling from favor with others -- Don Solaris stands out in memory. While not perhaps necessary album-by-album, any gear specifically noted by the group could be added to the entry.
And as with other "electronic music" groups, it's noted only with something akin to chagrin that Massey regularly plays guitar or saxophone, and Barker electric bass. Weeb Dingle (talk) 04:01, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
