thread_title: Copyright problem

message: Just a reminder note that Michael Holliday, Ruby Murray, Eddie Calvert, The Avons, Frankie Lymon, Gene Vincent, Ricky Valance, The Mudlarks, The Scaffold, Nana Mouskouri, Daliah Lavi and Max Bygraves could all be re-introduced if references could be found. Perhaps others too. Martinevans123 (talk) 19:15, 21 August 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Recording artists he produced 

message: I have removed an addition made by an IP editor 86.169.162.148. But they make a valid point, so I'm copying it here:
:"A shy, self-effacing man, Paramor was a highly respected musician and record producer, although he always referred to himself as "one of the backroom boys". Following his death, BBC Radio broadcast an hour long tribute to him and his music, EMI, placed a full page, blacked out sheet in the New Musical Express with the simple words "Thank you for the guidance, the inspiration and the music" and the Stars Organisation for Spastics organised a Memorial Concert at Fairfield Halls in Croydon, attended by HRS the Duchess of Kent, along with many of the artists Norrie had worked with and who also performed.  On 22nd September 1982, a posthumous award was presented to Joan Paramor by The Guinness Book of 500 Number One Hits, in recognition of Norrie Paramor having produced more of the First Numbers Ones than any other producer.  Perhaps not a household name now but at the time of his death he was still relatively well known.  Thus the statement below seems to be inaccurate and should be deleted or at least amended so as to be correct."
The statement in the article which in question is this one:
:"Despite his record of success as a producer, he died in relative obscurity without receiving any public recognition from any British institution."
Any views? Thanks. Martinevans123 (talk) 17:26, 6 September 2016 (UTC)

thread_title:  Public recognition 

message: See . Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 13:13, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: It seems to me that 's concerns have been addressed: no mention of Paramor's brief marriage to Gloria Brent, and the statement that he died in relative obscurity has been removed. If Carrieledingham wants other changes made it's probably best for her to post suggestions here on the talk page rather than editing the article directly because of her conflict of interest.

text: Quite agree. Being a child of the subject of an article confers no privilege here but, as Strawberry4Ever points out, can lead to a conflict of interest. Martinevans123 (talk) 15:11, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for the replies. It seems the problem may at least partly be outside WP. We seem to have a lot of "citation needed", could this  be a usable source? Gråbergs Gråa Sång (talk) 16:27, 10 September 2016 (UTC)
