Talk:5 After Midnight

Runner Up on X Factor

It seems to me just being a runner-up on the X Factor is enough to justify a Wikipedia article, and they also released a few records, one of which made the charts. There are some independent secondary sources about then, even it's just the likes of the Daily Mail and TMZ. It seems to me this article should stay.

Trouble is that a charting song can have its own article without the band having one. And we Wikipedians are specifically not allowed to use the Daily Mail because it is 'unreliable', the effect of which mostly disallows crappy tabloids like the sun etc etc. I had a good look, but being a X-Factor runner up doesn’t appear to give presumed notability. I don't really know what to say about the sourcing I found on Google except say its useless, things are either very local news (from where the band members live), tabloids reporting on 'celeb gossip' and passing mentions. I will transclude the find source template here below for anyone who wants to see if they can find something. Dysklyver 15:54, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Notability is not the same thing as quality. Judging by the videos I have seen, these guys are not great singers. The X Factor is not a great show and the tabloids are not great journalism. But these guys are notable enough to have their own Wikipedia article. Timothy Horrigan (talk) 17:30, 4 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Well obviously there are those that 'hate' the sun, and I am probably one of them, but thanks, the metro article seems good. Dysklyver 09:07, 5 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I will note that the entry for the band on List of The X Factor finalists (UK series 13) (which SW noted this was a redirect to), has way more information than this article, and that none of the other X Factor runners up have articles, even Honey G (who got way more press), so some expansion could be done on this whole subject.

Orphaned references in 5 After Midnight

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of 5 After Midnight's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "SCOSingles":

Reference named "IRE":

Reference named "UK":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 18:10, 6 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
