I think that's a really cool idea I think is a good idea too. In Wonderland proposed this and i think is enough info somewhere to make a good article. For this reason i will lend a hand to the project, even i'm spanish and english is not my native language. Maybe i can translate the article to wikipedia.es too. Edit1 2015.10.27: i see a comment in Almost Famous appreciation thread that reminds me this post: The above quote came from Kate Hudson's character Penny Lane in 2000's Almost Famous. Aside from just being a memorable quote from the severely underrated, previously mentioned movie, it's also where the name "Avril Bandaids" originated from. With that being said, which Bandaiders have actually seen the movie? For those that have seen it, you can share your thoughts and appreciation for the film below while the rest of you can get on to watching it (as long as you don't want to be a flop like the film's worldwide grossing)! I think info like the origin of the name of Band Aids and similar info will be perfect for the article about Bandaids.

More info to post inside the wikipedia article: I agree. We're still Avril Bandaids. I mean, the original Bandaids started out as a Yahoo Group. Then they actually made their own website. It's always been Avril Bandaids, the format for the forum has just changed a bit over the years. Regardless of what happens with the site, we'll always be Avril Bandaids.

You need references.

I know i need references. I'm not gonna write any article without the aproval of the staff here. And because the origin of the idea is not mine. I"m only suggesting because i like the idea. In the lapse of time between my first post on this thread and this post i wrote 3 Wikipedia articles in spanish with references, see also, further reading, images, etc.

I doubt that there are any references of "Bandaids history" left (except the news reports of Avril Bandaids manipulating the GF views) since the original site is currently (or permanently) down.

But we'd have to mention that the original site is down and dig out some references from the archive Dillon found? Just an idea.

Yeah, that would be one way.

We're still discussing this? I think Avril Bandaids could be mentioned on Avril's Wikipedia page, because it IS a big deal as fan sites go. But I don't think there needs to be an entire article about us. There's just not enough content to justify it, or make it interesting for that matter.

Is not that large. Is an easy-to-make article. I think an independant article is better than a paragraph in Avril Lavigne article. I think writing bandaids in Lavigne article is more invasive than making it's own article. I will make a test with some of the info. Edit1 2015.11.11: The test is live.

Agree, im still sticking to the opinion of that i dont think its really necessary though

I edited my "test" of Bandaids article: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Paladium/sandbox
Wthat do you think about it? I think is a way of tribute to the long history of bandaids. I added an infobox organization and some info about Yahoo. Yahoo group is still visible. Maybe Wayback Machine for some pages of the Yahoo Group of Bandaids in the future.
Can you see the test in the sandbox? Can you edit the sandbox or is permitted only to the user? If you can edit, can correct things and write something more.
Thanks.
