This article is an absolute mess, and, even though the material I removed was restored because the writer claims it was not copyvio, the article is a mess and cannot be left this way, as it is terribly un-Wikipedia-ish (if that's a word...). If I had the time, I'd fix it. Bill (who is cool!)15:39, 2 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
As you noticed, I put here the wikify and cleanup templates, eventually you rewrote the article properly, and later the original author restored previous content; I do not mean to be offensive to anyone, but only to remark that actually it violates Wikipedia's policies (neutrality, POV, bias, paragraphs, formal/encyclopedic language vs magazines' slang, and so on). I like the way it is now, but it's too different from the standard.--Doktor Who20:03, 2 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
It's not that I don't like the way the article is written (it would be fine for any website, blog, or other page of the sort), but it is so far out in left field as far as Wikipedia standards go, it needs to be rewritten, probably in full. Bill (who is cool!)20:40, 2 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
Should I have some time, I'll restore some of the content that has been deleted, but I'll do properly, merging it into the current revision. Furthermore, why a subst-afd has been put here? Why this article should be deleted? Isn't Dave Kilminster notable enough? I'm going to delete that ad, if someone doesn't agree, please post here the reason before reverting.--Doktor Who03:38, 10 July 2006 (UTC)Reply
