Talk:Mark Lowry

message: Oh come on - not sure who had to add (Yes I know I could go look but I'm no wikipedia edit queen folks) the "Despite speculation by many due to Mark's effeminate mannerisms, he is not a practicing homosexual" line back in - but is that really necessary??? (I personally don't find his mannerisms effeminate - they're "Mark-isms" - he's his own person - thats all - so why should we speculate just because he's never married?  I have friends who are close to his age and never married - they wouldn't want us speculating about their sexuality... why do we feel we have the right to speculate about famous people?)
PS - the speculation about his sexuality could be the NPOV issue could it not?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.34.50.102 (talk) 01:31, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

message: There used to be an non-neutral point of view warning on this article.  I just did a massive re-write (well, reformat), so I hope that took care of it.  But no one noted down what exactly was biased about the article, so I have no idea.
Someone with a more in-depth knowledge of Wikipedia's arcane rules should probably once it over for me.  For example, Lowry (it sounds so weird to call him "Lowry") is a devout Christian.  How does one say that in a NPOV?
And while you're at it, check the spelling.  My spell checker is kind of on the fritz.  Odd, I know :-) --Daniel Royer 06:33, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: One way is to point out that he specializes in Christian comedy and records with Christian groups. While that's not the same as being a devout Christian, the two usually go together. Another way is to quote a reliable source as a way of giving outside verification of the statement; articles or interviews would be simple sources to find. Additionally, of course, there's the point that "devout" isn't necessarily a necessary or even useful term. Lawikitejana 02:41, 7 April 2007 (UTC)

I grabbed that off of Google somewhere.  I probably should have noted the source down.
So it is probably violating some manner of copyright law, and it should probably be deleted.
That said, if I were to take one of my video box covers and scan it, would the resulting picture be okay to upload?  Would that be "fair use"? --Daniel Royer 06:33, 17 September 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: Someone has been trying to post or link a publicity photo from some theater, which is likely a copyright violation. I got a scan of one of his albums instead, which qualifies as fair use. Realkyhick 21:05, 28 December 2006 (UTC)

message: I have created a new article for Mark Lowry at Mark Lowry/Temp  I've utilized material that I found on Mark Lowry's website and tried to digest it and paraphrase it into something that hopefully doesn't violate copyrights and is not a cut and paste of the Mark Lowry biography on the website.
