Line-ups?

edit

The line-up shown at http://homepage.ntlworld.com/groundhogs/Discography/Discography.html mention John Cruickshank aka John Lee, and Bob Hall, but this article doesn't. Can anyone add this info & expand...? Cheers!--Technopat (talk) 13:29, 26 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

When did they become The Groundhogs?

edit

They were originally just Groundhogs - when was The added to their name? SilkTork (talk) 15:34, 4 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

I see the problem - the name "groundhogs" was being used as a redirect to Groundhog. This [1] indicates that the band are primary for the term "groundhogs" than the plural for groundhog; so, per WP:PLURALPT I have renamed the article, and put in a hatnote for the few readers who may be typing "groundhogs" for the animal rather than the band.

GroundhogsGroundhogs (band) – Article recently moved (by me) from The Groundhogs to Groundhogs per WP:PLURALPT as that is the band's name, and while Groundhog is clearly primary for the animal in the singular, it appears to be less so for the plural form. However, a concern has been raised that folks using groundhogs may be more likely looking for the animal than the band, and Groundhogs (band) may be a more appropriate name. I agree that is possible, hence this discussion to get a wider view and some consensus. SilkTork (talk) 11:03, 8 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
