Notability amd Sources edit

Whichever editor questioned the notability of this article is obviously not very familiar with Hong Kong singers; Teresa has been one of the biggest stars in Hong Kong (and other Asian countries) over the past few decades, and still has many fans. As the original author of this article, I do concede that it could be strengthened by citing more sources. I have added a link to Teresa's website which contains much more detailed information including a discography.Rodparkes 05:09, 22 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

I have added more information and removed the notability query, since I believe the article now more than satisfies the criteria. I still have some more changes/additions to make when time permits, mostly concerning her more recent career.

As for sources, in addition to Teresa's own website (cited), two other websites have biographical information. I have not cited these in the article as they may not be permanent, but they are http://www.genting.com.my/en/live_ent/2005/teresacarpio/biosheet.htm and http://www.hkpo.com/en/concert/ticketing.php?id=guestplayer&gid=13. it should be noted that the sources differ on some of the dates of record releases and performances, and more research is needed. For example, one says her TV show ran from 1975 to 1980, another that it ran for 4 years from 1975.Rodparkes 02:45, 23 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

I see the citation police are going over the top again. I removed "citation needed" from the statement that Carpio appeared in the September 1986 edition of Hong Kong Playboy, since it's self-referential - the magazine itself is obviously the source. Rodparkes (talk) 03:12, 10 June 2010 (UTC)Reply
