Hello,
Can someone from Wikipedia please contact me about the page written about me, there is some incomplete and misinformation written on my Robin Clark page that needs to be corrected. I also added a correction of my birth date and it was deleted, I also added my recent appearance in the Academy Award winning documentary 20 Feet From Stardom and that was also deleted. I am a little confused as to how this all works. Last year there was a different Wikipedia page up about me and it was taken down, can someone please help me sort this out.
Thank You

This one backs up the screen-time in the documentary,[1] plus gives some other details. "Robin Clark -- the incredible vocalist who has sung with Dylan, Bowie, Springsteen, Vandross and a million others, and was featured in the recent doc 20 Feet from Stardom -- was basically Simple Minds' co-lead singer on the band's best-selling album, Once Upon a Time." Is the blog of the Village Voice newspaper professionally editorial-board fact-checked?
There was also some coverage in a Bulgarian zine;[2] here is the staff-page.[3] They are talking about the CD soundtrack from the movie; Young Americans is #9, by David Bowie. This is bing's manglization of the Bulgarian original: "When David Bowie was still obsessed with the mid-70's soul music, managed to give us the first samples of these searches with the Young Americans in which catalyst was the help of sychwremenoy Luther Vandross in creation! Of course here to note that like one of the worthiest representatives of sorts, Vandross managed to recommend in Bowie a group of great artists who would take the vocals of songs all LP composed by him but also by the Ava Cherry, Robin Clark (known for her vocals on tours of Simple Minds, Aretha Franklin, Bette Midler, Bruce Springsteen, Bob Dylan, etc), Jean Fineberg, Jean Millington, but also – surprise! surprise! – the great John Lennon songs Across the Universe and Fame!"
See also the article 20 Feet from Stardom about the documentary; official site only lists names of the primary stars of the documentary (love clayton hill lennear fischer vega and the waters). According to fan-generated IMDB, an almost-completely-different set of names were credited (adler alexander austin botti DavidBowie boyd RayCharles childs christian GregClark clayton&clayton collins crossley SherylCrow). The movie-poster highlights a third set: (BruceSpringsteen StevieWonder MickJagger Sting BetteMidler). Basically, it seems like a mess. :-) But a couple of sources indicate that Robin Clark was in it, in some fashion. 74.192.84.101 (talk) 04:10, 20 March 2014 (UTC)[reply]
I think a page with this title should be Disambiguation, and the individual should have a suitable modification in brackets. I do not see she is sufficiently outstanding to merit the page alone. In fact other people named Robin Clark seem more notable and have better cited pages. Chemical Engineer (talk) 21:28, 2 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]
