Long enough. New enough. Dispassionate/neutral article with reliable inline citations throughout. The majority of the citations are available online. AGF on offline sources (books). Both hooks are cited; I find the main hook more interesting. QPQ done. GTG.

@
Hybernator and
GDuwen: Someone ought to expand the GTO article since it is secondarily featured.

@
Lightburst: That article could use an expansion for sure. I haven't been interested in Wilkin's early career more than I've been in his fascinating, yet obscure material that he put out on his two solo albums. "GTO" has been paying the bills for years for him I suppose, but he also had a career as a songwriter that enjoyed some success in the early 1970s that still gets enough recognition from niche enthusiasts.--GDuwenHoller! 20:09, 13 October 2023 (UTC)reply
