Truth in Music Advertising edit
- ... that former Sha Na Na member Jon "Bowzer" Bauman was the co-author of Truth in Music Advertising legislation in most of the United States?
Created by Binksternet (talk). Self-nominated at 23:57, 9 July 2017 (UTC).
- Article as created and nominated on 9 July, 2017.
- Exceeds minimum character threshold.
- Hook is neutral and within length limit.
- However, I can't see where the source is for it being enacted in 34 of the 50 states? I presumed there would be one in the lead at the end of either of these sentences "and promoted by him and Mary Wilson of the Supremes, was not passed by the U.S. Congress, but has been enacted in 34 of the 50 states. The legislation has been tested in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit." I can't see any other mention of '34' or '50' elsewhere to check it either.

- Sorry about that, Calvin999, I thought I had copied one of the primary source websites (1, 2) as a named reference there – both of them say 34 states. But better than primary is the secondary source I provided just now, a newspaper article which says 34 states. Binksternet (talk) 18:53, 31 July 2017 (UTC)
