Perhaps a quick note referencing ArtistShare, since Billy Childs won his most recent Grammy while self-publishing (I believe?) outside the record industry establishment. Also noteworthy for use of micropayments. Or not. 67.174.240.216 04:11, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
Title of entry edit
Should the title of this entry be Billy Childs?

- I tend to agree. WP:NICKNAME says "The name used most often to refer to a person in reliable sources is generally the one that should be used as the article title, even if it is not the person's 'real' name" – and it appears he is always called "Billy" in media reports.--Muzilon (talk) 11:57, 31 August 2017 (UTC)
