Hey there, I just wanted to ask about my page on the formation of Pixies and their first show in Cambridge in 1986. I want to understand the reasons behind why my page was taken down, so I can possibly get the original version back to edit and fix it according to the will of the LMW gods. Seriously though, any help is appreciated. Thanks.
Please read the rules and guidelines. The article was very confusing and poorly formatted, it threw you into the history of the band without any sort of introduction and the focus was in the wrong place. While it's good to give a brief description of the band and what they're known for, it was more like an article on the band's formation than an article on any supposed lost footage. Additionally, no references were cited, the page did not contain an infobox, it was not categorized, and the title was in the wrong format. Look to some of the other articles on the site for examples of how they should be written and formatted.
Also, I'd say this topic would only qualify for an article if there was some sort of evidence or claims that the show was ever recorded at all (footage can't be lost if it never existed)... I'm not familiar with the band so I don't know if it was or wasn't, but the article did not say anything about this.
If you're interested, here is the article in its previous form: pastebin.com/EUQUKQqb
