Talk:David Bailey

message: As Bailey is among Britain's most famous photographers, I think he deserves a far better article than the one we have at present. I'll try to contribute myself but I happen to be bogged down in lots of other areas at the moment and could do with some help. Hope I'm not alone in supporting this cause. - Ipigott (talk) 17:33, 14 September 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, the article does rather go on about how exciting and fashionable everything was in "swinging London" etc etc etc; and says little about the photography, which I'm ashamed to say I had dismissed as merely a superior and sometimes arresting kind of fashion/celeb photography. (Nothing necessarily wrong with the latter; but given a choice between photos of Beautiful People and those not of Beautiful People, I'll take the latter.) Well, Francis Hodgson points out that I was very wrong. -- Hoary (talk) 01:14, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: You have an excellent memory. Glad to see the article is moving in the right direction. --Ipigott (talk) 09:02, 28 July 2012 (UTC)
replies: text: I'll be pretty busy for the next couple of days, and during this period will only make enough changes to reassure you that I haven't forgotten about the matter. After that, I hope to do more. Do please join in! -- Hoary (talk) 10:05, 28 July 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  Marriages 

message: A revision of 2013-03-04 added Glastonbury, Somerset, as Bailey's present home but did not include a cited source.
My search of the Electoral Roll and today indicates:
:his present address remains as previously included (on Dartmoor, near Plymouth), with a company address in London.
:there are several people named David Bailey (but who are not him, being much younger) listed on the Electoral Roll and BT Phone Book as living in the Glastonbury area.  I suspect one of them caused confusion.
I'm making an edit to that effect, but not including full address information; Wikipedia:Biographies of living persons is clear on the issue of privacy. It's not possible to provide an exact web page source beyond the main website of the Electoral Roll search.    Twistlethrop (talk) 12:53, 20 October 2015 (UTC)
