Chris Joannou is not Greek

[edit]

I have family friends who know the family of Chris Joannou and Chris himself and they are not Greek. They are Macedonians from norther Greece, either Florina/Lerin or Kastoria/Kostur, not sure, but one thing I am sure of is that he is not Greek. Their surname was changed by the Greek authorities. I'll be editing this article.

--- yeah that's what everyone said about Peter Daicos, "he's not Greek Macedonian he's Slav" but when it came to the Greek AFL team of Century he was the first to claim he was from Greek heritage.


=======First of all FLorina and Kastoria are located and are, were and always will be in Greece and are Greek

I am Greek and felt very offended by your post , because always you can search in maps specifically, to see by yoyrself were those 2 cities you mentioned earlier are located.... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 46.12.255.253 (talk) 17:29, 14 March 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Improvement?

[edit]

This article needs a better main body and more information, Information about the gear he uses (more than just one sentence), And a picture. The infobox doesn't list the instruments he is affiliated with, There is a trivia section which needs removing I would try but I am not very good at editing and writing for Wikipedia!

Ethnicity and Protection of article

[edit]

It has been a while since I have read the article, the one thing I noticed is the removal of Chris' ethnicity, ethnic Macedonian, and the source which provided it. Place replace it..

Also, Admins need to protect the article against people without accounts. Look at the history and the majority of edits have been by these people. Mactruth (talk) 01:21, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Everyone needs to be reasonable and proceed in the development of the article in a constructive way. Here is the only article I found so far:

Ok that site is not a reliable site. Anyone can log in and edit profiles on it. We need an unbiased reliable source that states his of "ethnic Macedonian" or "Greek" origins. I have not found one yet. (Angar432 (talk) 17:04, 28 October 2008 (UTC)).[reply]
  1. http://www.users.bigpond.com/MONTDALE/page8.html Heritage from village Κρανιώνας in macedonian Дреновени. Sources claim that the village was pure Slavic. --Raso mk (talk) 20:03, 28 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Since we don't have a reliable source about the Chris' Joannou ethnicity let's leave it as Australian. It it the one tha we all agree. If something newer comes then we can provide the additional information. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 178.128.153.97 (talk) 22:13, 20 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Run on sentencing

[edit]
"Chris counterpart Ben taught him how to Play Bass making him the only Band member who didn't
know how to play an instrument but he caught on fast because his Father was very
good when he was a Teenager."

Could anybody fix this? The punctuation is horrible. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.67.15.252 (talk) 10:01, 18 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Name

[edit]

The copy of the "Christophoros" name back into ptwiki sent me in a rabbit hole trying to find any sources on his first name. Could not find any reliable source for either Christophoros or Christopher, though I did find IMDB and this tripod site stating his name is "Christopher Andrew Joannou". Though not exactly reliable, as it accepts suggested edits from users, I would rather stick with IMDB on this one over a made up name for Wikipedia. For the time being I removed both Christophoros and John from the name and left it as "Chris Joannou" as it is what we can be sure about. Chico Venancio (talk) 14:26, 4 December 2019 (UTC)[reply]
