Talk:James McCartney

message: Not notable? Paul McCartney's son? Are you kidding? He could be locked up in a mental hospital and never seen by the public and he'd still be worth writing about. Stevage 15:30, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: It's my impression that in Wikipedia being related to a famous person does not in itself confer notability. Having played on a few of his father's lesser-known recordings and on his mother's (extremely obscure, it would seem) record should, however, make James McCartney notable, but only marginally so. Thus this article is disproportionately long and involved. (It also includes, as of this writing, a fair amount of trivia that should be excised in any case.)

thread_title: Notability

message: There is only one citation in the entire article- none of the statements in 'Family and Personal Life' have citations, which they should because they don't make the most sense. They are also out of order. I'd put the little 'citation needed' thing next to practically every statement in 'Family and personal life', but I've no idea how.68.183.182.214 (talk) 05:49, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Lack of Citation

message: He is notable primarily for being the musical son of musician Paul. the lede should reflect this. the info on his siblings should be at the bottom of the article, in personal life. his relationship with his father, musical releases, performances (both solo and with father), and other musical info should dominate the lede. If he wasnt a musician, he of course would still be notable, but then the article could start with his family relations. Ive attempted to fix this.Mercurywoodrose (talk) 01:16, 11 September 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: James McCartney is not notable at all "for being the musical [or otherwise] son of" Paul McCartney, and this relation, though it may appear in the first paragraph, should not appear in the first sentence. TheScotch (talk) 08:30, 16 October 2011 (UTC)
thread_title: Main reason for notability

message: The text says: 'It is his first physical release, the two individual EPs being digital only.' CDs are digital. Maybe 'download only' would be better.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.108.145.40 (talk) 15:34, 19 August 2013 (UTC)
thread_title: 'Digital only'

message: So while working on an update of the page, I went ahead and contacted the website people to release a photo in the infobox into the Creative Commons. Anyways, they said we could use this publicity photo - I like that it's more current than the other one, but if someone has a recent performance shot, that would probably be more preferable. Feels weird using publicity shots on Wikipedia. Otherwise, the update I did was pretty standard, just organizing the content into an 'early life', 'career' structure as is more normal, and adding some recent references.
