message: Could the person who wishes to hide Ward's appearances at Butlins stop deleting this section everytime it is posted. Are you Shayne Ward's PR team or something? If it's a fact it's allowed on Wiki, so LEAVE IT ON.   —Preceding unsigned comment added by 212.155.238.154 (talk) 15:39, 24 October 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Removed opinions

message: Re: this piece of info which has been added: A young Shane can be seen in saturday swap shop alongside Noel Edmunds, as revealed earlier this year in a Sunday Times Interview (The Sunday Times 21st March 2006).  
Apart from the fact that the contributor has a) spelt both Shayne and Noel's names incorrectly, b) got the title of the programme wrong, and c) cited an interview which supposedly appeared in an issue of The Sunday Times published on a Tuesday, Multi-Coloured Swap Shop ceased broadcasting in 1982, two years before Shayne was even born, so I'd be surprised if he did in fact appear on it........

:Calm down. I have removed South Africa as it is unsourced. — AnemoneProjectors (zomg!) 16:38, 8 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  #1 in south Africa ? 

message: This whole article reads like it's a PR job by his management company.  No mention of his father's rape conviction?  Very odd in an article that's supposed to be encyclopedic.  It was a big deal in the papers at the time of the finals, so it's very odd it's not mentioned here.  Possibly because this article is being edited by people who don't want anything negative about Shayne or his family to appear?  Call me cynical ... 86.136.27.255 21:14, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It was mentioned before but was removed in December 2006 due to being unsourced controversial material. Nobody bothered to find a source for it so it was never restored, and was forgotten about. I've found a reliable source for it now and will re-add it to the article. anemone|projectors 22:34, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  Did anyone look for a source? --Vintagekits 13:11, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I added it with sources on 10 November. It was removed by User:Appleberry32 a few days later with no edit summary. I shall put it back. anemoneIprojectors 13:55, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: So add it to the article with the source and then you can add the category back. anemone|projectors 00:22, 8 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Hmmm, I'm not sure about a source like that. There's no mention of their supposed traveller descent on our articles on Rita Hayworth, Charlie Chaplin or Bob Hoskins, let alone Bill Clinton. You've got to love their "It is even claimed..." there; that never inspires confidence in a source. Furthermore, even if we decide to accept this doubtful source we would have to additionally agree that the inclusion of the category is relevant to the overall story we are telling in the article. I, frankly, don't think it is. --John (talk) 16:30, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text:  That's pretty much my take on it - the reference is very wooly and I'd like to see something better presented before we re-add that cat (and at best shouldn't he be "of stock" since he's not actually an Irish traveller anyway?) --Fredrick day (talk) 18:06, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry to bring this up again, but I was reviewing this again recently. It seems I was partly wrong above; there is mention in the articles on Charlie Chaplin and  Bob Hoskins of their Romani people ancestry, although not on Rita Hayworth or Bill Clinton. However, the information is integrated into the text with a reference, rather than being as a category. I suggest this might be the best way to proceed here as well. I would still like to see a better reference, and to agree here that the information is important enough to include at all. These ethnically based categories are a nightmare. --John (talk) 02:50, 26 January 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Shayne Ward is of Irish Traveller decent, but finding a reliable source may be difficult because of the lack of written records and secrecy among this community. Qwerta369 (talk) 20:22, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

replies: text:  Then there are multiple issues with this article.  Citation needed. Qwerta369 (talk) 07:20, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
replies: text:  Yes there are, feel free to remove anything unsourced. I have no interest or inclination to deal with them, I'm not even sure how this article ended up on my watchlist - all I do here is prevent additional unsourced information being added, someone else will have to weed the garden. --Cameron Scott (talk) 07:46, 28 April 2010 (UTC)
