Knighted?

edit

This article says he is a KBE, and there are some ghits for "Sir Jeffrey Tate", but our article is silent on this score. What's the true story? -- Jack of Oz [your turn] 12:41, 2 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Charitable work

edit

I met Jeffrey Tate when he was president of ASBAH in the UK, due to my own sons disability with Spina Bifida and work I did with ASBAH central office.

I have therefore added a paragraph relating to this work that he did. I cannot remember the exact dates but will try to get these from ASBAH now SHINE & Update the entry. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 217.42.184.225 (talk) 16:33, 10 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

Order of topics

Why is the second thing about him that he has spina bifida? We saw him conduct at Carnegie Hall, and sure, it's apparent, but shouldn't other pieces of information be discussed beforehand. Imagine a Stevie Wonder page that quickly leapt into him being blind, or a page on Johnson that quickly leapt into him suffering from scrofula. Frank Lynch (talk) 01:33, 1 December 2016 (UTC)Reply

Talking about order of topics: The fact, that SIr Tate became a medical specialist on eye surgery even before being a conductor is completely ignored in this article. 2003:D1:7BD6:1CBB:216:CBFF:FEA9:70F (talk) 07:11, 4 June 2017 (UTC)Reply
