Overall: 
Although it may be just a coincidental juxtaposition of words, I did find duplication of the phrase "Jon Langford, of British punk band The Mekons, discussing his loach fish." repeated several times over when I checked it out on Google search. I do not know if you forgot quotes, or whether you wish to do a bit of rewriting, but I am uncomfortable passing this nomination with present wording. All else in the article checks out, so with this slight emendation, the nom will be GTG.Georgejdorner (talk) 04:45, 5 March 2015 (UTC)
@Georgejdorner It's a direct quote from a newspaper interview, it's in quotation marks. Thanks for the nom! CheersMouthwash15 (talk) 23:19, 6 March 2015 (UTC)
