Removed image

Removed image of restored mural as it contained a photoshopped "duck tours" vehicle located http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Restored_Robbo_graffiti_in_Camden,_London.jpg . My evidence of this is that:

(1) www.londongraffititours.co.uk is unregistered according to the whois information, the same site has no entry on the wayback machine so it likely never existed, which is supported by the domain not being registered and then redirected to a parking by a hosting company,

(2) The end of the phone number is the same as that of duck tours which is highly unlikely,

(3) The name on the prow of the vehicle is unrealistic and appears added later. ME-tan2 (talk) 22:20, 27 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Hiya ME-tan2, I've slightly wikified your comment above. Hope that is acceptable with you. I am happy to accept above. Tom Pippens (talk) 00:01, 28 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Oof, I should've inspected the picture closer. Thanks for catching this.-- OBSIDIAN†SOUL 02:03, 28 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cite source for date of death

Is it a good idea to include a source in the section titled "Death"?

Is a link to the statement at the official website a good idea as a source? Another source is the guardian? found here : https://www.theguardian.com/artanddesign/2014/aug/01/banksy-graffiti-rival-king-robbo-dies. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Xyxyzyz (talk • contribs) 18:04, 21 August 2019 (UTC)[reply]
