Talk:Sean Lennon

message: I have added and been cleaning up this section in the article.  Many of the quotes can only currently be proven by me and others who were at the show, but I think they should be left there for historical recordings. --Yamalieu (talk) 06:55, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  ''The Ghost Of A Saber Toothed Tiger'' 2009 Tour

Where, of course, "Mom"=Yoko Ono and "Dad"=John Lennon.
I tried linking to his MySpace for references on the Musical Influence section, but the Wikipedia bot deleted my attempt.  Perhaps someone else can achieve this better than I. --Yamalieu (talk) 08:45, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

message: Image is missing!  Anyone involved with this page know if another suitable one is on Wikipedia? -- Chuq 13:01, 2 Oct 2004 (UTC)
thread_title: Image

message: I unlinked most of the linked dates.  The edit summary should have read: dates unlinked per Wikipedia:Manual of Style (dates and numbers) --Dforest 04:04, 5 March 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  mistaken edit summary 

message: Okay, so now instead of having an unsourced photo up on this page we have the same photo that an anonymous unregistered user now claims is their property and releases free to the public. How can we tell if this is kosher? Wellesradio (talk) 00:22, 16 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: There's no clear reason to doubt the source. It could be an intern or someone like that, new to wikipedia. If you can find the pic elsewhere on the net, then the authorship could be further traced.Wwwhatsup (talk) 09:31, 16 January 2011 (UTC)

text: We certainly don't want a "fair use" image here.  I have found a clearer freely licensed one to replace the indistinct one that we had.  Jkelly 21:24, 4 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I've put my own picture on, its more suitable for wiki. Expert10 01:21, 2 May 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Atrocious Image 

message: Sean Lennon and his father, John Lennon, were both born on an October 9, 35 years apart. 201.116.29.242 (talk) 23:56, 24 December 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: My brother was born on my mother's birthday. The chances are one in 365. Since the population is much greater than 365, it's fair to assume this happens a lot. TheScotch (talk) 10:10, 23 December 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Is this a coincidence? 

message: Wouldnt he be american born and british/english by nationality?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.34.253.231 (talk) 03:13, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Nope, he's American nationality. GoodDay (talk) 20:36, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: He is American nationality and British/Japanese ethnicity. --Yamalieu (talk) 21:41, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

text: A social media post today confirmed that he does in fact have British citizenship as well as American. (He won't have Japanese citizenship, as they are one of the handful of countries which prohibit dual-nationality). Would it be worth changing the article to describe him as "American-British" or something similar? Perry (talk) 20:23, 20 January 2017 (UTC)
thread_title:  nationality 

message: I would think that if he is a songwriter, guitarist and singer, he is obviously a musician...  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 189.140.187.168 (talk) 07:12, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Occupation 

message: Perhaps there should be some mention of Plastic Ono Band shows, and relationship to Mi-Gu? I am going to add a The GOASTT article and have it redirect here. Wwwhatsup (talk) 06:19, 5 April 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  2010 update? 

message: It should mention that he is the second child of John Lennon and that John Lennon was well known for being in the Beatles in the first paragraph.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.193.58.166 (talk) 02:40, 1 September 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Second Son 

message: Is he Sean or Seán? The article title needs to be consistent with the content. Girlwithgreeneyes (talk) 19:36, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Sean or Seán? 

message: then Sean Lennon's going to be labeled correctly too. Trueethnic (talk) 03:03, 29 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Arnold is an Austrian-American because, get this,  HE WAS BORN AND RAISED IN AUSTRIA and is now an American citizen.  The obsession some people have with ethnicity is pathetic.  Sean Lennon was born in the United States, thus he is an American, period.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.141.155.6 (talk) 00:09, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  If Arnold is an Austrian-American 

message: Calling someone by a first name only throughout the entry is far too informal, and is inappropriate for what is supposed to be an "encyclopedia".  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.141.155.6 (talk) 00:11, 5 January 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: It is sometimes done when the subject's parent has the same last name, and the parent's name is also used in the article. Kingturtle = (talk) 18:09, 12 January 2016 (UTC)
thread_title:  Use of his first name 

message: You are invited to participate in an RfC at Wikipedia talk:Requests for mediation/The Beatles on the issue of capitalising the definite article when mentioning that band's name in running prose. This long-standing dispute is the subject of an open mediation case and we are requesting your help with determining the current community consensus. Thank you for your time. For the mediators. ~ GabeMc (talk|contribs) 21:59, 22 September 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  Beatles RfC 

message: Entry previoulsy asserted that his parents 'did not force him into the life of a musician' before tautologically listing how they used him in various musical projects from the age of five. I have kept 'forced' but maybe it sounds too judgemental?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.150.194.48 (talk) 03:51, 21 October 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I think that "kickstarted" is a forceful term. How about "encouraged" or "nurtured"? Even better, simplify the wording and defuse the emotion at the same time by dropping that first clause altogether, "His parents kickstarted [sic] his musical career:", and begin the paragraph with "His debut into the music world . . ." At the age of five, I doubt that anyone would assume that his musical activities were unilateral, uncondoned by his parents.
