Looks like two of us are editing the "also seen with" list for Wipeout to reflect two different collections of music. Are we talking about the Wipeout XL game, or the soundtrack album? The artist and track lists are different between the two. My edits reflect what's actually on the game disc (which is red book audio, and can be played in any CD player). The Leftfield, Orbital, Source Direct, and Daft Punk tracks which are on the soundtrack album are not in the game. And from the game, all the CoLD SToRAGE tracks and one Future Sound of London track (Landmass) don't appear on the soundtrack album. Personally, I think we should go with the game's tracklisting. — Wwagner 23:49, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
Hi,
I recently removed Julian Nugent from the band members list as I can find no biography of Fluke that mentions his name! He is mentioned on adambomb.info 's forum, but he is not included in any of the official biographies on any major site as far as I can see. Therefore, until someone produces a source, please omit him from the band member list. Martin Hinks 14:38, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
Hi,
Thought I'd mention that 'Julian Nugent' is credited as a band member on the 1993 album 'Six Wheels on my Wagon'
Cheers
Hi,
I've recently been doing a lot of work on this page and just so that people don't revert some of the changes that I've made thinking they are silly here's how my thought process is running:
Thanks,
Martin Hinks 12:28, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
OK, well, I don't suppose Martin will be too surprised that I've just popped up :) I'm not going to do the GA review myself, for obvious reasons, but it looks pretty good to me, so I expect you'll get it whether it be immediately or after an "on hold" with a few small tweaks first. Anyrode, if you're thinking of moving on to FAC - which you probably ought to be - here's a few things which need polishing:
Hope that helps, and if you'd like to return the favour please let me know which KLF-related article you think is closest to FA standard and any tips for improving it (see WP:KLF for some contenders), so I can get it polished and nominated. With Vinoir absent I don't get that crucial second opinion :( -- kingboyk 20:11, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
Really appreciate the comments, as you said, it's hard to see these things from the inside sometimes! -
The only way I can get this to FAC is to improve the references considerably, which will be tricky, but is something that I will definitely work on - with The KLF for example it is easier to come by sources as when Jimmy and Bill make a noise the media sit up and listen - Fluke never got that kind of attention (we won't go too far into the reasons why hehe!).
I'll take a look at the KLF project tomorrow and pick an article.
As I said, really appreciate the comments and flattered that you think that FAC is a possibility for the article.
Cheers kingboy Martin Hinks 20:42, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
This is very well written and well referenced article that is eaisly read by a non-specialist audience. IMO it is easily a GA. My one quarrel is the lead, it seems a bit long, prehaps some of the info in it could be put into the rest of the article, and prehaps cite the bands forming. Good Work Everyone.

Somewhere in this article there should be a mention of "The Saint" starring Val Kilmer. If it weren't for the soundtrack to this movie, I likely wouldn't know that Fluke existed and thus they wouldn't be one of my favorite bands.
They also received some excellent exposure through the use of "Absurd" in numerous commercials, to particularly good effect during the introduction of the new VW Beetle.
