Current context reference being most desireable and correct.

Any attempt to seperate the John Robert Powers name from its current usage/application is not correct. John Robert Powers is not living. The importance and relevence of the reference lies in its current context. Certainly there is a historical background to the reference but that is background to the complete contextual reference. Few users would be searching for John Robert Powers solely in the context of the original man.

Any research of the name generates results referencing its modern usage with background references that describe the man, his achievments, his marraige, his death, and then finally the acquisition of his name by a series of businesspeople and their subsequent usage of that name.

Positive unbaised and unrelated references to the current users of the name John Robert Powers might be found and included in the citation but current researchers were unable to find any that were written by unaligned neutral third parties.

Requested information on the corporate structure of JRP, the names of it's owners, the terms of it's franchise agreements, the outcomes of any publicly revealed lawsuits, etc. Please submit to resource center or edit with supporting citations. Sheepshear 20:17, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Can anyone find any support for the claim that these actors have actually recieved any training from JRP? Ditto the agencies that they claim to be participants. I have tried to contact the agencies but they will neither confirm or deny. Two stated that an agent on staff may have participated at something called iPOP...Is that a JRP program? Is JRP related in any way to a competition called iPOP?Sheepshear (talk) 23:04, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No, but they can be referenced to JRP sites. This was the compromise with a pro-JRP editor some time ago. I will again remove those actors with no citation after this much time. Gimmetrow 23:12, 7 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
