Talk:Stephen Lynch (musician)

message: In one of his songs he implies he is Jewish.
Was it just a part of the joke, or is he really Jewish?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.90.125.101 (talk) 20:18, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Is he really Jewish?

message: Everybody, just keep an eye on the article because this has been nonsensically changed several times, even though all sources state that Lynch lives in Brooklyn.  He also owns a house in Michigan, but last I checked he does not own anything in Manhattan and his primary residence is in Brooklyn, New York.  Thanks!

thread_title: Lynch Lives in Brooklyn, not Manhattan

message: Well, I consider it a major overhaul.  There wasn't much wrong with it, just thought it could use a little better organization.  I don't care for how I've set up the Discography/Videography, so if there is a better way to do it - go for it.  I think I'd be nice to keep album covers and basic info, maybe a different format (I just stole the template from some band).
I also added an album template to each album.  It'd be great if we could get more info for each album.  I still don't quite get all the citing and sources of anything, so if I need cites/sources somewhere, please add them.  I think the reference cleanup still needs to happen :).
Hope I've done well!  MorseMoose 01:14, 4 June 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Major Overhaul

message: "His second official album, Superhero, released in 2002, was also a live album, and generally received better reviews than the first, partly because of strong audience response."
Things like this need citation or need to be removed.  Encyclopedias are factual, and unless you can provide some references to show that the album was better received and why, you can't put things like that in the article.
"Considering himself a musician first and a comedian second "
source? these need to be cited in text. There are lots of references and such at the bottom, but they need to be paired up. 
"Family and friends prove to be an important influence on Lynch's work and career"
" He trusts so deeply in her taste that if she doesn't laugh at the initial concept, he will scrap the idea completely"
etc..etc.. Its a nice article, would make a great biography or column, as its written it doesn't have much encyclopedic value because nothing is sourced and there is some subjective writing. This needs massive clean-up.

replies: text: Looks good. I removed the cleanup tag.  This article is a lot more useful now. It wasn't a slight against the information, but a lot of it "sounded" unencyclopedic and when that is the case, we need these citations for reference. --Crossmr 16:18, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I went through all the references and changed them to Cite.php format. If you change them back, I will be quite upset. 66.229.160.94 23:42, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: References, cleanup

message: "It has recently been confirmed that Stephen Lynch has been dating Neil Patrick Harris for the past 5 years. Stephen Lynch is married however Stephen Lynch considers himself bi-sexual."
Is there any proof for this? Adam
:No way.  I'm a huge fan, so I'm 99.9% sure that it's vandalism (and the .1 only exists to avoid a lawsuit if I missed the boat and it's actually true--even though it's not. ;) ).

message: Does anyone know anything about this supposed divorce, as per a recent edit?  There's no source, his MySpace page still indicates that he's married, as does his IMDb page, and there's nothing that I can see on his official website.  A quick Google search brought up no articles.  Are we sure this actually happened? Layla12275 08:34, 13 August 2007 (UTC)
