Talk:Rogue (musician)

message: Since it appears to be an ongoing issue... the archive has some discussion about Rogue's name (and whether or not it should appear in this article). If the subject comes up again, which seems likely, it might be worth reading through that for some background. --Mrph 19:06, 31 January 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Ok, but I think the mirror links are still a good idea. I'm going to add a link to the Dupont family page and a line for him there. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Baligant (talk • contribs) 15:31, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: Cited. I've used the same source that's quoted a little further down the talk page. It looks a little ungainly in the article, but we can always streamline it later. --Mrph 22:04, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I wonder what that article's source is. I'm confident of him being THAT du Pont from personal experience... I just wish there was an irrefutable source on it.--Dr who1975 00:20, 14 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I posted his name with a BMI citation long ago back when this was a issue and I firmly support the stance of verifiable information and the public knowledge of a name. I congratulate whoever found this even BETTER source! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.166.222.34 (talk) 06:56, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I removed the link/category to the Du Pont family. The Askmen ref is true in part, he is born with the name du Pont, but it is not stated that he is a descendant of Pierre Samuel du Pont de Nemours. And, I have not found any connection. Handicapper (talk) 15:28, 21 April 2010 (UTC)

message: Reading the archives, people have been having the same argument about this article since 2004.
Reading Wiki's very own policy on biographies of living persons (yeah, that one with the link up there ^ , go read that and come back), and looking at the other articles on performers using stage names, it pretty much comes down to this:
Rogue's legal name is publically available and it doesn't take a private investigator to find it out.
If there is going to be an article on Wiki about Rogue, it's going to include his legal name unless Rogue specifically requests otherwise, which he hasn't to the best of anyone's knowledge. (Yes, he has stated in public he prefers to not have people know his legal name, but he hasn't told Wiki to cease & desist AFAIK)
The fact that Rogue comes from a Well Known Family adds interest - kinda like if he was a Kennedy or a Windsor.
So... if you don't want to see Rogue's legal name on Wiki, it would probably be more effective to contact Rogue and have him do something about it than to keep vandalising the article.

replies: text: Furthermore, considering that we have numerous sources on the name, whether or not the Office would respond to Rogue complaining or not is debatable at best. Phil Sandifer 18:01, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Ssssh, I'm tryin' to distract 'em. Somehow I doubt this is keeping Rogue up at night, he's rather a busy person. --ArborealCrustacean 18:22, 6 February 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  ROGUE! ROGUE! ROGUE!... ewww I know Rogue. You're not the only person who knows/knew Rogue here. I don't see why his identity could possibly hurt his family (and yes.. I know what family it is).--Dr who1975 07:44, 14 February 2007 (UTC)

text:  If Rogue didn't want his family name known, he wouldn't let himself be listed in the Tallahassee phone book as "Dupont, Rogue". - ShadowGuardian, 11:56, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

message: I didn't know that Rogue was born in Charlottesville. Is there a source for this? I don't recall him mentioning anything about it last time he performed there, and he addressed the crowd at length. --Halloween jack 18:12, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

message: There's a fair amount of original research here and non-notable information that makes this page sound like a fanzine. There's POV and original research that should be removed. "Trademark" performance style, announcement of trying to have a kid, teenage nickname, etc. are all likely candidates to be removed. Xinit (talk) 02:58, 22 August 2014 (UTC)
