Why not the official home page?

edit

Is there any reason why David Croft's official home page (www.davidcroft.co.uk) is not listed among the external links? If there isn't, I'd like to add it, if nobody will mind. /Ludde23 Talk Contrib 22:56, 26 December 2010 (UTC)Reply

Big lists

edit

I've just removed most of the lists from this page. My reasoning is because Wikipedia isn't IMDb, they were all unreferenced and, primarily, because they were very confusing (because he was mostly director/producer/exec on all of his self-penned shows, with very specific instances when he wasn't). If anybody objects, the previous edit is available here. However, I would recommend that these should at least be made into prose or something - really, this wants to be a biography more than a list.

Proof of how up-to-date Wikipedia is

edit

This article is an example of how up-to-date Wikipedia is - this gave me the first news of the death of this person. A few minutes after finding out he had died on Wikipedia, I heard his death announced on the Radio Four news. So, I actually learnt of his death before I heard it on the radio news!ACEOREVIVED (talk) 15:19, 27 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Yet more proof that Wikipedia is a reliable source, all the anti-vandalism bots are doing a good job as well. Akjar13 (talk) 15:34, 27 September 2011 (UTC)Reply

Reason for name change?

edit

The introduction for the article gives two names for the person, a birth name and a later public name. When and what was the reason that he changed his name? What name was he known under when he was in the British Army? It would improve the article if some background information was given.--TGC55 (talk) 18:48, 10 September 2016 (UTC)Reply
