[edit] Links to a blog
Do these links really belong here?
I certainly never would have added them, though they're not blatantly inappropriate. -- Jmabel | Talk 20:49, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
- Usually I'd say no, but I'd agree with you, they're not blatantly inappropriate--I don't mind if they're left in. --Lukobe 21:07, 12 January 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Nick Lowe's middle name
I believe Nick's middle name is Orain -- not Drain. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 143.165.201.47 (talk • contribs) 26 December 2006.
- You could be right; it's uncited, and I don't see anything I'd consider a really reliable online source for either one. - Jmabel | Talk 06:06, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Vandals
Someone just pulled down this enitre page. Please install anti vandal html. Thanks- Catherine Thanks so much to whomever restored this page. To wikipedia experts please enable anti vandalism mode on here. Thanks-Catherine —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Catherine Huebscher (talk • contribs) 18 January 2007.
- Would that it were so simple as to have "anti vandalism mode". It is not easy to make automatic determinations what is vandalism and what are legitimate edits.
- Anyone can revert vandalism simply by going to the article history and restoring the last good version of the article (with an appropriate summary: "revert vandal" will do). If an article is frequently vandalised, there are some thing we can do in terms of protection, but they also stop legitimate edits. - Jmabel | Talk 18:36, 7 February 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Best-known song
How can "Lowe's best-known song from the Brinsley Schwarz era," be a song that was recorded after that "era" because it was rejected by other members of the band? Nicmart 16:58, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
It doesn't say "best known recording." It says "best known song." Those songs are, in fact, from the Brinsley Schwarz era (since that's when he wrote them), even if the recordings that made them famous are from later.
[edit] The Bodyguard
What is the source of the assertion that Lowe was freed from commercial constraints because he became a millionaire due to sales of The Bodyguard? What was he worth before that? Has he said that he was less concerned about commercial success after this alleged windfall? Nicmart 17:04, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
- Not sure of the source, and I didn't write that, but I've heard him say that on two occasions. But I realize that is not citable. On his first U.S. tour after The Bodyguard he remarked on the pleasure of being able to bring a full band without thinking too much about the money involved. - Jmabel | Talk 20:25, 24 March 2007 (UTC)
