Image[edit]

The current image is a screen shot from the official website on 3 March, 2012. This article could probably use a more professional image at some point. (Bmickler (talk) 03:58, 4 March 2012 (UTC))[reply]

Years Active[edit]

The Last.fm biography ^[1] shows that Praful's musical career began in '87. (Bmickler (talk) 03:58, 4 March 2012 (UTC))[reply]

Labels[edit]

The http://www.therapyrecords.com URL did not resolve as of 3 March, 2012 but I've included it in the "Labels" section anyway since it is mentioned on the band's website and may only be down temporarily. The other labels are mentioned but there are no articles yet. (Bmickler (talk) 03:58, 4 March 2012 (UTC))[reply]

Website[edit]

Both the praful.nl official website and Myspace page are listed since they are the two most prominent media used by the band.Bmickler (talk) 03:58, 4 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for deletion[edit]

The introduction of this article was plagiarized from http://www.bbc.co.uk/music/artists/4c38c1aa-f040-4ffb-a578-237178439625 page, is why I decided to delete it. Correcta-informacion (talk) 06:24, 16 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Reason for Undoing the Above Deletion[edit]

The deletion of the introduction of the article has been reversed. The reason for this is that the BBC page cited above actually states that it draws it's content from this Wikipedia article. This article was not plagiarizing the BBC, in fact it was quite the opposite. Please see the note at the bottom of the BBC article which states:
