Completely unreferenced article about a band. The bass player of the band was named "Bill Jackson" and the creator of the article is Wiljaxon so there may be a conflict of interest here. On the face of it, this fails WP:MUSIC. A google search for "Judytwoshoes" brings forth a large number of hits...none of which are this band. A search for "Judytwoshoes" and "Judie Burton" (the lead singer) garners a single hit, this article. IrishGuy talk 01:04, 14 November 2007 (UTC) reply
Wiljaxon writes: May I point out that the period we are talking about is 1978-early 80´s - therefore an internet search can be expected to give meagre results - especially considering the provincial nature of the music scene at that time. Having said that, there is some evidence, rather than nothing at all, put there by little known record companies. View the links that I mention on this page. The conflict of interest I believe does not really apply here because of the passage of time. I don´t believe in self-promotion or egotism, just putting the record straight. Or in this case, making a record at all! Far more notable than Judytwoshoes itself at that time was the Bristol music scene generally. Perhaps that is worthy of a page in Wikipedia, but then someone more authoritative than myself (ie music entrepreneur/producer) should write it.
Yes I am new to Wikipedia but then ´we´ are invited to make pages! So there you are! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiljaxon ( talk • contribs) 18:46, 15 November 2007 (UTC) reply

There is no attempt at advertising or self -promotion - we are talking about a ´phenomena´ that was extant almost 30 years ago! The Bristol music scene at that time was very active (and exciting) and reference has been made to other bands who were around at the time. It is unreferenced, that is because the article is new. It takes time to track things down, speak to people, and get them involved.

Wiljaxon writes: It is true to say that compared with ´Blondie´ for example that the band was obscure. But on the other hand it was seen by hundreds if not thousands of people, as were the other local bands at the time. Also, I would not expect anyone to find a reference, on the ´internet´ to Judytwoshoes or any of the other bands of that time. I was surprised to find http://www.sugarshackrecords.co.uk/bands.htm. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wiljaxon ( talk • contribs)
