notability!

Of course we have this problem with ALL upcoming bands. Their video has just been released for their single for which the release date is just around the corner. Heavey airplay, supported some big acts such as Hoosiers and Newton Faulkner, going on headline tour. Pretty well known. Theyre notable enough, delete this article and it will just be remade after their debut single is released AceLinkOccassional (talk) 20:52, 1 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

This article's history is a great example of why I hate Wikipedia sometimes. Somebody nominated the article for deletion three minutes after it was created, when the editor was still working on it and could well be about to add references and things. And then way up to the time that the article stated that the band's single was single of the week on five different programs, an admin tagged it for notability.

It's brilliant the way people so wrongly assume they're being clever by changing people's comments, when in reality the result is that the person reading their little witticism falls off their chair laughing then fixes it ;)Gardenstate01 (talk) 21:48, 27 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

One could be forgiven for assuming the band themselves were having some laughs editing this article. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 125.236.183.58 (talk) 23:55, 26 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes THEN WHO WAS PHONE I'm talking about you hiya ermm dont you think that the script is the best band ever..i lovethem.. and please reply thanks.. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Sarah.indes (talk • contribs) 12:14, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Haha!

Danny's link went onto a Porn Star not to his own page. Who managed that? xxx —Preceding unsigned comment added by 90.210.240.119 (talk) 16:40, 7 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Discography

Instead of arguing about whether the band are notable or not, it's about time someone got round to sorting out a discography, particularly as the album The Script topped the British (and presumably Irish) charts! Skinsmoke (talk) 18:31, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Now sorted - Discography was elsewhere on Wikipedia, as was the debut album, but weren't linked to the main page! Skinsmoke (talk) 18:56, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Quality

the article is awful. someone needs to fix it. there is hardly any information on the band Sebmcateer (talk) 14:40, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

For a one album band they seem to be doing alright for content... and it's been rated C-class by an experienced user... they even have a discography... 8-O --Candlewicke _S^T_# :) 17:05, 24 February 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Band's success in the U.S.

Can someone please update the page with the band's chart records for the U.S. . "Breakeven" is getting radio play on many stations in the United States. I'm interested in seeing how well the band does in the U.S.! Thanks! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 146.115.20.210 (talk) 20:25, 21 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I had no clue that they were known in the US! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Floandthemash (talk • contribs) 19:21, 27 December 2010 (UTC) Hello. I just made an account to say that this band is far from "Alternative Rock". It's like U2, but worse. They're playing right outside my apartment tonight and I must say it's... Not alternative anyways. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Leonmarijn (talk • contribs) 18:24, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Where the band met

Danny O'Donoghue and Mark Sheehan are both from The Liberties area of Dublin 8 which is where they first met. If anyone wants to dispute this, please post on the discussion page first instead of adding very specific areas of The Liberties as this is inaccurate unless references are added.

Change lists to prose

Both album sections read like trivia sections. They should be changed to prose instead of list format. Dylan (talk) 20:52, 7 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]

PR Fluff

Does Wikipedia have a policy on content being promulgated directly by a bands PR company? Reads suspiciously like PR fluff. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Punchbear (talk • contribs) 21:12, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Genre

How can the script really be listed as "alternative rock" ? Sonic youth are alternative, as are Nirvana, Radiohead etc. Catchy, well-written pop songs a la Maroon 5 cannot be alternative rock! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.126.243.60 (talk) 00:40, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
