Talk:Victor Spinetti

message: I can find no record of this birth on the date specified at findmypast.com. I would widen the search but I don't want to embarrass him by adding anything to his currently alleged age! (Not that he seems the type to care too much about such things.) Nor can I find any independent source. Any ideas? Martinevans123 (talk) 20:25, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I see, so it looks like it should be 1929 not 1933? Martinevans123 (talk) 18:09, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Seems so to me. Also makes more sense career progression wise. Looks good for it anyways  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 87.112.247.194 (talk) 18:37, 12 May 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes, indeed. Perhaps another trawl at findmypast.com is justified! That direct single reliable (free) source still seems to be rather illusive. Martinevans123 (talk) 21:53, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

message: I think his wonderful performance in "Start the Revolution Without Me" must be mentioned. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0066402/

replies: text: Thanks, now added. I think 31 films certainly warrants a proper list and not just a text paragraph. Martinevans123 (talk) 18:13, 12 May 2011 (UTC)

message: Texas Pete has a classic voice. Victor Spinetti died. But his voice is a legend. Hopefully, Jim Cummings will be new to do a voice of Texas Pete.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.132.114.79 (talk) 09:18, 2 August 2012 (UTC)

message: I am seeing:
"Partner(s)
 
Graham Curnow (1953 – 1997; his death)"
In a homosexual relationship, "his death" is made more difficult to understand.  We have to look at the article to see that it is not referring to Victor Spinetti's death.  Do you understand what I am saying?
I am going to change "his" to "partner's".  We can continue to use "his" and "her" for references to relationship between a man and a woman. It also occurs to me that Brian Epstein was gay, and I remember references to the effect that homosexuality was not an open subject at that time (Epstein died in 1967).
:Unsigned, anon ip, unfortunately Template:Infobox person gives no advice. I don't think "his" is really that ambiguous when the year of Spinetti's death is given, in the info box, only 12 lines above. I think "Curnow's death" might be better. But I'm more perturbed by that semi-colon - surely whatever phrase should just be in its own parentheses? Martinevans123 (talk) 20:05, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
