Regarding John Gilliland's dates of birth death, the two main sources differ by 3 days on each. http://www.laradio.com/whereg.htm says October 18, 1935 - July 24, 1998. http://www.library.unt.edu/MUSIC/gilliland/biography.html says October 15, 1935 - July 27, 1998. I used the second set in the main article since it is a university site that looks as if it had some contact with JG's estate. If someone knows, please correct it (or confirm it here). (Posted 2006, I don't recall the exact date DougHill 04:55, 17 May 2007 (UTC)). UNT contacted JG's estate and they gave his corrected dates as October 18, 1935–July 27, 1998. (This means that unt.edu had the date of death correct, while laradio.com had the date of birth correct.) This is now corrected in the article. DougHill 01:40, 4 June 2007 (UTC)


I undid the revision of 00:26, 6 May 2007 by 69.136.82.26 . It deleted almost all of the page without giving any explanation. I will assume that was a mistake. DougHill 04:55, 17 May 2007 (UTC)
