Reads like an autobiography edit

This article needs significant clean up:

  • It reads like an advertisement for the subject, only stating positives.
  • Its written in un-encyclopaedic tone.
  • It lacks references to cretiable third party publications.

I suspect it's an autobiography. See Wikipedia:Autobiography for why this is undesirable. Wikipedia is not an arena to write about how great you are. --AtD 12:57, 8 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

It was very autobiographical - i have edited it to a more encyclopaedic form. please edit as you see fit. --Mrspeed 22:32, 9 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
It's better now. Be sure to check out the Manual of Style if in doubt over anything like this. --AtD 11:53, 10 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
I have identified the most important places to cite -- phrases like "best", "most popular", and "honours" scream for a citation. A link to a neutral web site is proably sufficient. Bearian 16:19, 17 April 2007 (UTC)Reply
Hi all, I have recently assessed this article to be C-class, please try to look for more independent and reliable references! References such as Facebook are NOT adequate and frankly should not be used!

At current article is factual and well referenced. Removing 'potential close connection' warning which was added in Dec 2008. --Evolve2k (talk) 01:11, 6 November 2011 (UTC)Reply

Fair use rationale for Images edit

Images have all been uploaded with the approval of the artist themselves and in some cases by the Artist. Removing system generated warnings. --Evolve2k (talk) 01:20, 6 November 2011 (UTC)Reply
