message: Is there any indication that John is not part of the band anymore (on Kate's website he is still listed as part of the band) and that he is done with producing her albums and that there will be someone else producing any upcoming ones?

thread_title:  Notability 

message: Somewhere in the development of the article, the chronology of Rusby's career is lost or at the very least becomes confusing. Based on NME and Allmusic, as well as the article's discography, the timeline runs like this:
*First performance at 15 at the Holmfirth Festival where she meets other young artists, including Kathryn Roberts
*Early collaboration in duo with Kathryn Roberts
*Duo's brief collaboration with Equation
*Joins The Poozies as lead vocalist
*Simultaneous with The Poozies, her solo career takes off
Other than pinning down the specifics in breaking away from The Poozies, this isn't that complicated, so the Career section should simply trace the progression rather than jump around. I'll do what I can to revise this section accordingly. The NME and Allmusic citations I used in the Discography should help others with the basic details. Meanwhile, additional sources would help considerably in filling in detail and assuring verifiability.
In addition, the lead could be improved by summarizing who she is and what she's done, rather than dwelling on fansite-like puffery, sourced or not. Allreet (talk) 18:50, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I have restored the born in Sheffield as this is given in the GRO Index for births (see this if you have a subscription or your library has a subscription). The origin field in infobox is not necessarily the place of birth but often the place where the person in associated with. To quote the infobox documentation "The city from which the singer or group originated (that is, the city where the group was founded; or the city where individual performers started their career, should it not match the location of their birth). If the city is not known, specify at least the country." Keith D (talk) 20:05, 9 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Biography needs improvement 

message: Is there a reason the articles footnotes are numbered from 2, with 1 being a dead link to an article, judging from the headline, discussing the reliability of wikipedia? I don't have time this morning to fix it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.92.109.122 (talk) 14:06, 14 February 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually, footnote 1 is attached to her date of birth, in the summary column. However, it's definitely a broken link.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.5.239.5 (talk) 21:23, 26 July 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I have added an archived version of the page so you can now get to the link. Keith D (talk) 22:24, 26 July 2011 (UTC)

message: FreeBMD has only one birth entry, between 1970 and 1975, for Rusby, Kate Anna, mother's name Senior, registered in the first quarter of 1974 here. But this was in Sheffield, not Barnsley.  Martinevans123 (talk) 19:59, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: If Rusby was born in Penistone, as described by the BBC here, one might have expected her to be listed under Barnsley. But surely, this must be her. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:08, 18 August 2021 (UTC)
