Why was it that Rick Wagoner was such a bad manager?  Steven Rattner outlines this in his book Overhaul.

message: While expanding the article I also changed his official birth name. There is only one source for this, however it is a source that I've found to be well-researched about other people from Missouri and consistently proven correct. As oft the case with online sources, they tend to parrot each other on some basic data. "Stone" was/is more of a nickname than his official name. I've tried sources online in Texas to get a copy of his birth certificate, but so far no luck. Sector001 (talk) 19:15, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

Talk:Ricky Fataar

message: The article begins like this: Ricky Fataar (born 5 September 1952 in Durban, South Africa) is a South African musician who is primarily a drummer. The first sentence of the next paragraph is: He was originally part of The Flames, a band from his birthplace of Durban, South Africa that began in 1963. He joined the band at the age of nine years old. But if he joined The Flames at the age of 9 in 1963, he would have had to been born in 1954. If he joined The Flames later than 1963, his year of birth must also be pushed back correspondingly. http://hem.passagen.se/honga/database/f/fataarricky.html lists him as joining The Flames in 1965, making him EITHER born in 1956 (if he was 9 when he joined The Flames) OR he was 13 when he joined The Flames in 1965 - and this is, to me, more likely. At any rate, I will leave this matter to be decided by someone who actually cares about it. Hi There 15:10, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

message: Reliable sources in the past have given his birth year as 1939, but according to the BBC here he was 84 at the time of his death, so (assuming the same date of birth) he would have been born in 1936.  Obviously, it's commonplace for singers and so on, and their agents, to knock a few years off a performer's age, and the 1936 date fits better with all the things he is supposed to have done before starting his singing career - but, we need confirmation of one date or the other, and consistency in the article.
