thread_title: Deleted reference

message: I'm not the best at writing sections from scratch. It seems to me that Tony's article is desperately short of mention of influence and inspiration - that he gave to others. Manchester would be such a different place had he never existed and that angle isn't really mentioned in the article at the moment. Please can someone with a greater command of the language than myself come up with something? 82.23.90.72 21:35, 16 August 2007 (UTC)

message: The article states that FAC 501 "will be the last Factory catalogue number" but Factory_Records_Catalogue refers to a FAC 511.

replies: text: I noticed the same thing. Looking at the given reference, it only says that FAC 501 is the last catalogue number, not that it definitely always will be. I'll change the statement in the article to reflect that. --David Edgar (talk) 12:08, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Factory Records was absolutely not 'the home' of Orchestral Manouevers in the Dark. They made 2-3 recordings that were released as a single Electricity/Almost. It went nowhere and they were then signed to DinDisc, a sub-company of Virgin Records where they released their first album.
I'm removing them from that list.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.72.180.236 (talk) 19:27, 10 September 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: ehh, fair call. Factory wasn't even sure they were going to be a sustainable label at that stage. Per Shadowplayers the Dindisc deal was in the works by the time FAC-6 came out. Did get Saville a day job for a couple of years, which was good - David Gerard (talk) 12:53, 11 September 2015 (UTC)

message: KNUPFER is a typical jewish german surname 
native germans don't have this name  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.247.241.65 (talk) 12:32, 15 June 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: Actually you're completely mistaken. Knupfer is a fairly common Germanic name, but very rarely is it a Jewish name. Take a look at the list of people with that name and you will find that none of them are Jewish. It's possible that Wilson's mother had a German or perhaps Dutch ancestor, although even that is uncertain as she might have been adopted. There is certainly no indication based on her name alone that she had Jewish ancestry either way.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:C7E:5743:C300:9CE5:202E:9758:41B (talk) 10:24, 19 August 2022 (UTC)
