GUEST,jim bainbridge	Key folk figures absent from Wikipedia? (124* d)	RE: Key folk figures absent from Wikipedia?	31 Mar 21
If Wiki is acknowledged as being unreliable & has pernickety rules, why would anyone refer to it about anything at all. There are plenty of reliable places where 'folk' information is readily available! just ask the collectors like Doc Rowe directly- they'd be glad to help, in my experience. No, the only ones who are concerned are those who want to see their name in lights like BUDDY HOLLY et al. It doesn't matter how much practice you do or how many CDs you've made or how many tours of Brobdignag you've done, this thread seems to be about daft folkies to put in daft and unchecked information about other folkies - if they think you're worth it, they'll do it, but what value it has beats me.... and such inevitably duff information will be a HINDRANCE not a help to future researchers.
