Nad's father edit

Hugh Stewart Sr was indeed an accomplished tennis player, so this is not intended as a sneer, but I'd be interested to learn the criteria used for making the claim that he was 'world champion'. Aside from not even being sure what that term is supposed to mean, it can hardly be based on his Grand Slam performances, where he never progressed beyond the quarter-finals in doubles (both men's and mixed) or the fourth round in singles. [1]

(I wonder if someone has noticed that he twice won the Gentlemen's Plate at Wimbledon and has misinterpreted this as meaning the tournament's men's singles title. The plates were contested by players who had been knocked out in the first and second rounds of the main competition.) Grubstreet (talk) 15:24, 16 September 2019 (UTC)Reply

I like Nad but it looks way too much like Nad wrote this himself, this article needs some serious cleaning up.

"Between 1976 and 1979 Prog Rock became his realm. He could play every kind of keyboard (organ, Minimoog, Elka string synthesiser, Fender Rhodes and Mellotron) without putting aside his deep fondness for singing."

"A skilled horse rider, having ridden since he was eleven years old, Nad also loves swimming and long walks in the woods, where he appreciates contact with nature and animals. He has participated in a musical project to help elephants in Africa too."

I'm surprised it's stayed up like this as long as it has!Andrea'sEdits (talk) 01:10, 5 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

I'm going to endeavor with finding citations for his early life and career. certainly needs some cleanup, although I'm going to dig deep for sources before removing non controversial texts 5. SkidMountTubularFrame (talk) 17:07, 6 May 2022 (UTC)Reply
