thread_title: Image copyright problem with Image:Mr untouchable poster.jpg

message: I think these lines might as well be deleted-
* It often thought that the 1973 Jim Croce song "Bad, Bad Leroy Brown" was inspired by Barnes but it was in fact inspired by one of Jim Croce's friends from the Army[13]
* It is also often thought that the "Mr. Big" character in the Bond movie Live and Let Die was inspired by Barnes
The source for the first one only talk about Jim Croce's friend and there is no mention of Barnes to connect this.  And neither the first or second have a source for these "general" thoughts.  Without those these seem needless.  I figure I'll give about 24 hours and if no one responds I'll assume no ones cares and go ahead with my change.MephYazata (talk) 02:36, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
