Expanded

I have added more to the article and restructured it with sections. Note that this is important as a (popular) cultural term in the UK as well as being a nickname for a well-known couple. — Jonathan Bowen 23:28, 27 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion of merge topic

As I stated on the talk page of the List of entertainers by nickname article, in concern to the suggestion that the Posh and Becks article be merged into the List of entertainers by nickname article, I don't feel that it should be. I feel that at least one celebrity supercouple, known often by their nickname that has impacted the world, should be included on Wikipedia, besides Bennifer. Flyer22 01:11, 14 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Commentary about Posh and Becks notability - reading suggestion

I suggest to those who have "voted" to keep this article, please read the following section of the "On notability" essay. This article falls right into this category. Bumm13 03:39, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The editors who "voted" Keep are experienced Wikipedian editors. And one usually votes popular culture articles right off of Wikipedia, mostly because that editor feels that they (the ones in question) don't meet notability guidelines, yet that editor felt that this one does. This article will be improved over time, but I see no rush, and I see no reason not to trust that these editors had good reason for keeping this article. Flyer22 04:39, 16 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I'll take care of the same reference being duplicated. There's a better way to duplicate it. Thanks for correcting the name from Andrew Motion to Andrew Morton. Flyer22 (talk) 00:33, 4 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
