message: Bones is a disambiguation page.  I'm not sure if this referes to the Swedish band or Bones Thugs-n-Harmony.  Can someone who does please update the link? --Selket 07:44, 29 January 2007 (UTC)

message: She appeared in a documentary entitled "House Cats" which aired on The Science Channel 9/27/2008.  She owns a three legged siamese cat. She thinks she can talk to her cats.Aaron (talk) 17:30, 27 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: She can (or could) talk to her cats. Any human can talk to any animal. Whether the animals understand is another matter.--Doris Kami (talk) 15:04, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: In 1998 she introduced here Battersea Cats:  (but presumably they talked for themselves). And in the 1990s she shared her Victorian mansion in north London "with a three-legged cat called Tripod":  Martinevans123 (talk) 16:01, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

message: I don't think we should be using this source for anything about her family background.   There have been multiple discussions over whether the Mail should be regarded as a reliable source at all, and even though it claims to be quoting her directly, we know from experience that it can misrepresent statements, and we also know that members of her family including her brother are alive and may not accept (I don't know) that she came from an "abusive" family.  Are there better sources for these allegations than the Mail?  Ghmyrtle (talk) 13:07, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: Probably. Just seemed a huge part of that story, and conspicuous by its absence here. I don't mind if you'd like it back that way. InedibleHulk (talk) 13:09, 12 October 2014 (UTC)

message: Where was de Paul born? Cricklewood or Southwark? The current source says Cricklewood. But some sources, such as The Stage, give Southwark:  Martinevans123 (talk) 12:36, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: The Stage also says she was born in 1950, so judge its reliability accordingly.   Ghmyrtle (talk) 12:57, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: Maybe other sources which say Southwark have just copied from The Stage. But I thought somone had suggested her birth was registered in Southwark?  In fact, IP86 above said: "Today I checked the microfiche for birth records and found the following: Lynsey M. Rubin birth listed on the September microfiche for 1948; her mother's maiden name is given as De Groot, born at Southwark." Martinevans123 (talk) 13:08, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: I have removed Cricklewood (see edit summary). ErikvanB (talk) 03:44, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
replies: text: But The Daily Telegraph is considered a WP:RS and says: "The daughter of a property developer, Lynsey de Paul was born Lynsey Monckton Rubin in Cricklewood, north London, on June 11 1948". Whereas trees.ancestry.co.uk is surely an open public site with no editoral oversight whatsoever? I have no reason to doubt MikeDalley484835, whoever he might be, and Guy's Hospital sounds perfectly reasonable. I'm just reminding about the general view of these two sources.

message: Is her name 'De Paul' or 'de Paul', because I've seen it spelt both ways in the article; also where would it come on an alphabetical list? RASAM (talk) 20:18, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
replies: text: Her name is/was Lynsey de Paul (as per the article name).  It would be spelt De Paul IF it was starting a sentence, otherwise it should always be rendered as de Paul. She is filed under 'P'. - Derek R Bullamore (talk) 21:13, 16 July 2023 (UTC)
thread_title: Her name again

message: There is a sketch in which Peter Cook plays a defendant accused of mass murder, and Terry Jones as the judge lists the victims, most of whom have funny names; among them "Viscount Lynsey de Paul".  I always wondered where that came from, and why it got a laugh, until I happened upon this article (from Eurovision 1977, which I happened to see live). —Tamfang (talk) 19:10, 18 April 2024 (UTC)
