Talk:Andrew Collins (broadcaster)

message: There are two writers named Andrew Collins, and at the moment their pages are at Andrew Collins (writer) and Andrew Collins (author).  Clearly, this is silly.  Would anyone object to this page being moved to Andrew Collins (broadcaster), since this Collins seems to be as well known for his radio work as for his writing?  (I think the other Andrew Collins, who writes about the paranormal, should probably be disambiguated further as well, and I'll ask about that at Talk:Andrew Collins (author). —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 00:30, 11 September 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I've made the move and fixed the redirects.  Since all the links to Andrew Collins (writer) should still work and look fine, I'm leaving them be per WP:R#Don't fix links to redirects that aren't broken. —Josiah Rowe (talk • contribs) 03:04, 14 September 2006 (UTC)

text: "Broadcaster" is fine.  Even when he "writes" he is "broadcasting" his opinions and thoughts, and his preferred method of communication is radio/podcasting anyway, as it takes less effort.  188.28.51.199 (talk) 20:29, 10 May 2011 (UTC)

thread_title: Andrew Collins tracked to Gayocenes?

message: I think that this article could be improved if it were mentioned that, in July 2006, he received an honorary degree from University of Northampton. This would improve Wikipedia's credentials for keeping up-to-date with its entries. ACEO 18:44, 4 October 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Miscellaneous edits

message: In the Collings and Herrin podcast, Collins and Herring encouraged listeners to vandalize the Wiki pages of Duncan Norvelle and of themselves with 'made up but witty catchphrases'. Expect repeated vandalism of the Andrew Collins, Richard Herring and Duncan Norvelle Wiki pages. I deleted all the bullshit catchphrases that were posted on Collins' Wiki page. They will almost certainly reappear.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 116.25.178.230 (talk) 15:45, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Collins, you bastard, if you continue to request vandelism of this page, it will be locked down so only the drummer from Napalm Death can edit your life story. I wonder what he will have to say... Consider this a dire warning from the internets. Better than you have tried to defeat us We Are Many, We are Legion. Ceoil (talk) 17:42, 20 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text:  By the way its Stuart Maconie who had the miserable time on tour with Napalm Death in his book Cider with Roadies not Collins (sigh).  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Jemstone66 (talk • contribs) 07:52, 22 June 2009 (UTC)

text: Well, there you have it, I think you've proved my point - Collins has pointed out that the cleverest vandalism is where you get it included in a newspaper. And you also have to remember that the whole podcast is, and i'm picking the word carefully here, irreverent. Especially Virgilio Anderson Richard Herring's bits. Can we move on now please?

message: In the very early Collings & Herrin podcast, in the first or second show, Andrew talks about his wife. Why does he no longer talk about her? Did he really have a wife at one time?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Zoara2010 (talk • contribs) 17:24, 17 October 2010 (UTC)

message: It really is a matter of WP:Consensus - there is one individual, using a variety of ip's (which may be fine, since perhaps they have an ISP who assigns a new one every time they log on) to remove content that is non controversial, positive to neutral in depiction, and establishes the breadth of Collins notability; and for some unexplained reason considers it to be "rubbish". There is a changing cast of other editors who feel that the information is pertinent, easily discerned, and encyclopedic. This is not an edit war, it is one disruptive editor attempting to impose their preferences against a consensus derived from the opinions of various editors and the correct application of policy.

message: Should this be added to the category entitled "Year of Birth Missing (Living People)? Also, the categories which are there include a category entitled "Alumni of the University of Northampton", so it would be good to know what he actually studied at the University of Northampton.
