Tone of this article

This article seems to be way out of line - it says something like "he was known to be a very bitter man". Surely this contradicts the rules in relation to negative comments about living people.

Anyone watching this article? Any objections to me removing the negative stuff and the speculation about why he left the band i.e. the uncited comments?

Thanks for the alert on the NI Project talk page. I recently added citation tags, and I think we should wait to see if there are forthcoming sources that support what has been written (the tags are dated February 2007). I did notice another recent additional comment, which I just removed completely as it seemed totally non-objective, bordering on libel.

If I'm not mistaken, most of the negative comments appear to have been added by the anonymous user 82.41.245.199 (talk · contribs · count), who has contributed to the related article Degrassi (band) and to Bob Fairfoull.

I've also nominated this article for POV-check. --Mal 03:09, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good man (or girl?!) - thanks. Rmkf1982 | Talk 18:04, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I find the obvious point scoring and disinformation in this article astounding. I apologise that I am unfamiliar with wikipedia posting rules, I have tried my best to correct all mistakes with in the article or stub and provide evidence where needed. Especially the bitter man comment, who could have written that and why? --Congregation 01:32, 2 March 2007 (UTC)—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Congregation (talk • contribs) 00:50, 2 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Yet again an attempt at vandalism by Mike Baillie including inserting his own name into the history of the band...bravo, I deduce this as he has also added his name to the Degrassi site and Bob Fairfoull' site. Well we'll just have to keep an eye on this. --Congregation 02:00, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I haven't checked the whole history of the article to see what has been removed or inserted, but based on the current text I've edited the article and referenced it from pretty much the only sources I could find. I'm not that trustworthy of the NME reference, but have made it clear in the article that "The NME reported". I'll leave it up to someone else to decide if the neutrality tag can be removed.

why two drummers at T in the park?

up to the High Court to prove, hence 'dismiss' not a good term to use at this stage —Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.213.43.51 (talk) 14:07, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]
