[edit] Duplicate entry

I think the "television presenter" and "newsreader for the BBC" are one and the same, so I'm deleting the newsreader entry, which has no article attached. - Scooter 21:34, 14 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Jamaican musician

Michael Smith the Jamaican had been identified as a reggae musician. He is really a poet whose poetry is set to music. See Dub Poetry. I changed his description to say that.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Starapple (talkcontribs) 23:59, 30 April 2006

[edit] Link is broken

The Jamaican dub poet should link to this page: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mikey_Smith but I don't know how to change that.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.179.16.2 (talk • contribs) 19:36, 15 May 2006
