Nearly all the ref links provided aren't relevant to Peach now. As this page doesn't have the "edit" option, can someone remove these links? I believe this page is purely self promotion 81.151.158.50 (talk) 13:50, 10 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Out-of-date article (Re-visited)

[edit]

Hi fellow editors. This article appears to include a few links to programme pages which are "dead" (programme has expired). There have been a number of article lately where local radio presenters have included their programme pages as sources, which aren't reliable. Although this article does have RS, most of them point to BBC Radio Berkshire and aren't relevant to Andrew Peach himself. I remember BBC Radio 2 had a newsreader cull many years ago so not sure if he was one of those who was given the boot. I, for one, haven't heard him read the news on BBC R2 for a while. Could we have a consensus on whether a redirect to BBC Radio Berkshire would be more suited considering most of the programme pages are dead and don't contain audio anymore and that this is his "home station". - Funky Snack (Talk) 15:35, 23 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Comment. Now this article has passed a second AfD, perhaps now is the time for a tidy up. As stated in my previous post above, you can see that I mention some of the links are dead. Others are irrelevant with no reference to Andrew Peach. Instead, these only mention BBC Radio Berkshire. Therefore, I feel these links should be moved across and made a reference on BBC Radio Berkshire. Previous AfD discussions on other BBC Local Radio presenters have been closed with the decision to delete due to programme pages not being reliable sources. I'm neither for or against the deletion of this article (even though I made the nomination), but I feel there is some unfairness here. There are a number of programme links which are dead and have no audio and don't really help really much with the article. I would like to propose a merge or re-direct from this article to BBC Radio Berkshire, considering most of the "reliable sources" mention the station rather than Peach himself. - Funky Snack (Talk) 07:20, 8 May 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Self-promotion

[edit]

Once again, I would like to re-visit the case of this page being self-promotion. Having done my research, it appears Peach is from a small village in Walsall called Caldmor. The person making the majority of the edits to this page has the username "Caldmor". Coincidence? I think there's more to it. Please can this page be reviewed and investigated as there is reason to believe the majority of what its stated ins't factually correct. Peach hasn't been reading the news on BBC Radio 2 for a few years now. There are a LOT of UK radio presenters and broadcasters who like to big themselves up and see Wikipedia as a CV or profile page. - Funky Snack (Talk) 11:48, 10 March 2020 (UTC)[reply]
