Birthday

[edit]

Yesterday (22nd April 2009) was his 32nd birthday (Owen said so at his gig in Edinburgh, and there was a cake and card) not sure if it warrants inclusion.--Gordon (talk) 12:20, 23 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

That's cute, but not really WP:RS imho -- Will-is-here (talk) 13:46, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]
See, now this[1] is arguably WP:RS -- Will-is-here (talk) 14:06, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

CFTPA Vs Advance Base

[edit]

I wanted to make an Advance Base Wikipedia article (it's currently a redirect to here), but an anonymous user helpfully pointed out that the general policy on Wikipedia is to have one article for a person, no matter how many aliases they use. The anonymous user cited the example of MF Doom, a solo artist who has had multiple aliases - his article title being his most notable stage name. Contrariwise there's Norman Cook, another solo artist with multiple aliases, whose article title is his given name. So... what should we do here? I feel like the article taking the title of either project seems to give undue weight to one or the other. Thoughts, anyone? I'm a believer in WP:BOLD but don't fancy putting effort into something that's just going to be reverted in the blink of an eye. -- Will-is-here (talk) 13:46, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't think we can create a separate article about Advance Base. Instead, just like another user edited ([2]), we can write about Advance Base at Casiotone for the Painfully Alone.
Advance Base is Owen Ashworth's solo project and his stage name ([3] [4]). Therefore, it is in the same situation as MF Doom, Aphex Twin, and Dev Hynes, all of whom have worked on multiple projects under multiple monikers. Regarding to Norman Cook, we can create separate articles about Cook's groups such as The Housemartins, Beats International, Freak Power, and Pizzaman (band) because they are not his solo projects nor his stage names.
If you think "the article taking the title of either project seems to give undue weight to one or the other", I will recommend a move request to Owen Ashworth. 180.12.153.61 (talk) 16:46, 17 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Remove the CFPTA redirect

[edit]

CFPTA is also initialism for the arguably more notable and still current Canadian Film and Television Production Association. There should be a disambiguation page for CFPTA. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.7.0.210 (talk) 15:00, 4 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]
