Doncaster or Rotherham? edit
Which one is it? The Rotherham Advertiser and ITV news say Rotherham, Doncaster Free Press say Doncaster. The lead singer/songwriter is from Rotherham. Other band members are from Denaby which sits on the border. Who gets to decide? The band’s own website says Rotherham. Mwilliams0904 (talk) 07:59, 27 January 2023 (UTC)
- Singing about ‘Clifford Park’ and this ‘god forsaken town’, where Doncaster is a city, are all give always. The use of New York stadium to film and announce their tour dates, as well as songs like ‘mind the gap’ (a reference to Sheffield Weds fans coming to Rotherham), are other indicators that they’re from Rotherham.

Ballad of a Bystander edit
Just prior to it's removal from the page in revision 1204105951, this paragraph read:
On the first week of February 2024, The Reytons' third album Ballad of a Bystander finished second on the OCC Top 100 behind James Arthur's Bitter Sweet Love.[1] The Reytons stated they were "docked 2,200 units on a technicality following an industry complaint", and claimed that they had sold the most (physical) albums in the UK that week.[2] The Official Charts Company later released a statement in which they stated generally that they "take action regularly against releases which breach [...] our publicly available chart rules". [3]
This paragraph has been edited and reverted several times with the main concerns appearing to be: adherence to Wikipedia policies no original research and neutral point of view, and whether the total album sales count should be included. Rather than continuing this edit war, can we discuss changes here and try to reach consensus? Greatpopcorn (talk) 17:54, 7 February 2024 (UTC)
