Removed "proposed deletion" tag, person is the frontman for a perfectly notable (though minor) band (with a UK top 10 hit, for instance). Elf-friend 06:45, 17 March 2006 (UTC)
Huey's ex edit

Buzzcocks Nov 2013 edit
We have a small problem with referencing this event. Many of the online news articles have embedded video of the event as broadcast, which directly contradict the evidence reported by the newspaper websites. For example the Daily Mail (and Daily Record) reported:
"Huey replied: 'I’m totally alright with that, I just thought you guys might do something different for a change.'
'It’s part of the game Huey. It’s next lines mate,' replied Jordan."
- Huey says "would" not "might" - misquote also appears in the NME (sentence starts at 25:10)
- The "It's part of the game..." (25:19) was after other comments by Huey and other guests, and was not a direct reply to the first Huey quote
- Jordan's sentence was actually two separate sentences which were 18 seconds apart (25:19 and 25:37) and had other guests, the presenters, and Huey talking inbetween, as well as Jordan asking him a question to which he replied in a jocular manner
- Four people talk heatedly for those 15 seconds, and this misrepresents the dialogue as Jordan's "reply" does not mention the second, third, or fourth sentences that Huey says
There are similar issues with other sources which have similarly edited the words spoken into a more sensationalised "quote" - strange that they would do that as well as put the clips up so the audience can see that their quotes are wrong.
As this is a BLP, we should not be repeating incorrect quotes, even if they are secondary or tertiary sources, when we have primary evidence that shows them to be incorrect. More importantly, these misquotes are biased against Huey to show him in a bad light, and do not show that he was talking about being bored of them asking him his own lyrics every time he comes on.
As a sideline, Huey says he has been on the show eight times - rather than the four times quoted in this wiki article. Chaosdruid (talk) 16:30, 5 November 2013 (UTC)

Marine Corps edit
The article suggests that story of serving in Marine Corps may not be true. In "The Huey Show" broadcasted on BBC Radio 6 Music on Oct. 13th 2018 (available online till Nov 11th 2018) Huey refers to his Marine Corps past and troubles readjusting to civilian life. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:A311:8260:7B80:B466:A79D:EFAC:C16B (talk) 11:43, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
