Patrick himself has said that he was born in St Thomas in South London. Look on YouTube!!! ALWAYS mentions it when doing gigs in London!
I read somewhere he made up that he was born in Ireland as he was getting bored with saying the same thing during some interviews during publicity for the "Wind In the Wires" album!  —Preceding unsigned comment added by IndieGinger (talk • contribs) 19:35, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

message: Ummm, There was no article for the album Lycanthropy, so i made one, but i'm not so good with the code so i didn't replace all the links in this article (the old ones took you to an article about mythology) but i did get the one with the pic of the album art, anyway... the article about the Album is under "Lycanthropy (Album)"

thread_title: Lycantrophy Album Article

message: I have just realised that there is one track of his in the Björk album Army of Me: Remixes and Covers. In this article it is linked to P. Wolf, but I am not really sure if that is him. So, if someone knows if he made the cover, could add it to this article or, if not, could cancel the link.--Nauki 17:46, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Wind in the wire.jpg

message: I realise there's a little bit about his sense of 'sexual ambiguity' at the bottom of the article but this doesn't equate to him saying he's gay or bisexual - he's just being coy, as always. I mean, plenty of people play with gender or camp/kitsch/glitz. Is he really LGBT let alone an 'LGBT musician'?

thread_title: LGBT?

message: The "Wolf plays many instruments" part is overkill.  The clavinet, harpsichord, piano, organ,  and clavichord are all keyboard instruments played in much the same way.  It's like saying Chris Martin from Coldplay can play the acoustic steel string guitar, the acoustic nylon string guitar, the electric Strat guitar, the electric Les Paul, the 3/4 guitar etc etc etc.  If you can play one, you can play them all, what is the point of listing them all?!    -- Mikenosilly 12:19, 5 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Piano/organ/harpsichord etc

message: Why is this detail in the first line of the article? It's fairly unremarkable, and certainly not unique, definitive or particularly significant - shouldn't it be move to later?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 213.106.168.209 (talk) 20:19, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks for pointing that out. I have moved it to later in the article, although I wonder if it significant enough even to be mentioned at all. --Paul Erik (talk)(contribs) 21:03, 15 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Isn't it about time an article was created for this? Most other albums have the article made several months, and in some cases years, before the album is released. There are plenty of sources for it, as well as a number of songs confirmed to appear on it. --A Chain Of Flowers (talk) 12:45, 21 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: "Battle" Album article

message: The list seems a bit bloated and, dare I say, a bit pretentious.
It seems like he can play KEYED instruments very well, and can play a few others. From experience, playing the piano/keyboard/harpsichord/clavinet etc is essentially the same process.
Would anyone object to the sentance, "Patrick utilises a wide variety of instruments in his music, most commonly the ukulele, piano and viola.", replacing it? --A Chain of Flowers (talk) 11:26, 21 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  The OTT list of instruments Patrick plays 

message: Wasn't he born in London (St. Thomas Hospital)? It is mentioned above and he also states it in this interview: http://www.blogotheque.net/Patrick-Wolf-interview-in-English . The article states he was born in Cork, Ireland. 92.117.178.18 (talk) 13:13, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

message: The Bloody Chamber Music article was proposed for deletion recently by an IP, who claimed that most of the information is already in this article. It isn't. The record label doesn't merit a standalone article, and a summary of the content there should be merged here, then the article on the label redirected to this one. --Michig (talk) 11:09, 2 July 2014 (UTC)
