This article is clearly written by someone from Yorkshire who shows blatant bias towards their local music scene - this article is not neutral as Wikipedia articles ought to be. GowsiPowsi 19:14, 23 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Surely to be biased it has to express an opinion? It just describes the yorkshire music scene and as far as i can see,is all correct.

A google search shows the term on the BBC site: http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/collective/A11482454 cached at http://64.233.183.104/search?q=cache:YfMXILLe9ocJ:www.bbc.co.uk/dna/collective/A11482454+%22new+yorkshire%22&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=3&gl=uk&client=firefox-a Also a Sheffield label references the term in the URL of their site: http://www.newyorkshire.co.uk/ Anyway, of course an article about music originating from Yorkshire mentions lots of Yorkshire bands. The article doesn't talk them up, just lists them. In the first sentence 'success' is factual. The preponderance of new bands that all fit into the rough 'alternative' category could be called a movement, and certainly merits an article. (Emily)
