Someone needs to change J-Si's name. In the article it is written at JC but on the Kidd Kraddick website it is written as J-Si. I tried and it would not allow me to do it.

JSi rulez! We need more JSi. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.178.5.6 (talk) 03:43, 28 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I think that most of the new stuff that relates to "Kidd Kraddick in the Morning" - the show - should be moved to that page. This should contain biographical information.

Does this article need an update? I don't listen to the show regularly, but I'm pretty sure his daughter is older than 10 now. I thought she was early teens at least. --Slackercs 02:06, 30 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

How's that? Also - is Kidd himself editting his real name out, or what? --Joradio

Im pretty sure this page needs updating. Kidd has been in radio for more than 15 years, his daughter is 16 or 17. I also wish for you to put Kidd's birthdate on here .

Neutrality

Isnt the neutrality of this article suspect, as this so called Kidd Kraddick is clearly writing the article himself.

- Most of this article came straight from his web posted bio. Feel free to clean it up.

What's wrong with editing your own article as long as it's factual? I see nothing wrong with that... -- BrandonR 18:03, 17 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed... nothing wrong with someone taking the time to fix their own bio, as long as they're ok with other people editing it. -Rolypolyman (talk) 18:20, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I've noticed untrue claims of launching already notable artists like Leona Lewis and Natasha Bedingfield appearing and reappearing in this article simply because those artists are played on his radio show. It smacks of resume stuffing in what is supposed to be an encyclopedic entry.—Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.106.215.249 (talk • contribs)

I've removed most of the uncited material that I cannot immediately verify per WP:V. Should be simple enough to re-add with a reliable cite when someone digs one up. I've also removed most of the maintenance tags, I think the only problem left is a few 'cite neededs', and those tags should suffice. Kuru ^talk 12:54, 3 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Born date

What year was Kidd Kraddick born??? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.188.116.131 (talk • contribs)

We've got 2 different birth dates in this one article. Is it 1959 or 1964? Joyous! | Talk 14:44, 22 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Kidd was born in 1959, and the Infobox needs to reflect that.* — Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.166.65.247 (talk) 06:05, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I requested that the article be edited so that the correct birth year and age shows up. The article has since been updated and the information in question has now been corrected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.160.177.87 (talk) 06:34, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

CAUSE OF DEATH

As of this writing Mr. Kraddick's cause of death has not yet been released. Changes to this wiki entry erroneously state the cause as a brain aneurysm and list sources that do not support that claim. No cause of death has yet been published. Unofficial sources are stating rumors about the cause of death being a brain aneurysm.

The FW Star Telegram is citing an internal Clear Channel memo. That's pretty official. -- Erroneuz1 (talk) 19:34, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Edit request on 28 July 2013

This edit request has been answered. Set the |answered= or |ans= parameter to no to reactivate your request.

In the description below his picture, the birth year and age of Kidd Kraddick are both incorrect. He was born in 1959, not 1952. His age was 53, not 60. Please update the article so that the correct information is shown. Thank you. 50.160.177.87 (talk) 06:27, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Callanecc (talk • contribs • logs) 11:19, 28 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

[1] Is a pretty good source. It refers to him as 25 in 1984 and 12 in the "early 70s". If he was born in 1953, he'd be 17 by 1970.--v/r - T P 15:48, 19 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

New Source

Found a new source that gives some really indepth information for this article. [2]--v/r - T P 16:02, 19 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
