Talk:Minstrel

[edit] Questionable edits

I think these uncited anonymous changes are basically wrong, but I don't really know the topic well enough to say. The notion of calling, say a 19th century (or later) street singer a "minstrel" in any but a metaphoric sense seems wrong to me. I'd appreciate if someone who knows more about the history of music would weigh in. I'm going to tag it with {{expert}}. -- Jmabel | Talk 01:49, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

I agree, though googling certainly doesn't confirm it. Tuf-Kat 02:05, 17 April 2006 (UTC)

Since this mostly plausible massive uncited unwikified anonymous addition also removes external links and interwikis and sneaks in the words "butt sex", I'm going to guess that it is plagiarised from somewhere and is basically vandalism, so I am reverting. - Jmabel | Talk 03:49, 11 December 2006 (UTC)

Ha! It was just rearranged paragraphs from this very article. - Jmabel | Talk 03:53, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
