[edit] Honorifics

We show him as both a CH and an AC. I don't believe he was ever awarded either of these honours, and they're not mentioned in the article. I've removed them unless someone can provide citations. JackofOz 13:10, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Excellent Speaker"

"Sinclair made an excellent Speaker..." NPOV? An unbiased quote would suffice, but as it stands it is a problem.

[edit] The computer book writer?

An Ian Sinclair (not this one; he was British) wrote enormous numbers of books about microcomputers during the 1980s computer boom. I believe Ian R. Sinclair is the same person - see this Amazon list. Does he have an article somewhere? (Ian R. Sinclair doesn't exist.) 86.143.48.9 01:54, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

This is not the best place to ask this question. List of people named Sinclair shows there's an article for a British writer named Iain Sinclair - he might be the one you're after. JackofOz 01:59, 4 April 2007 (UTC)
