I don't know how important the auto racer Justin Wilson is, but there is another Justin Wilson, a Cajun cookbook author and humourist who deserves a place in Wikipedia. Go see www.justinwilson.com

The driver, to me, deserves the primary disambig. violet/riga (t) 19:18, 19 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Where is he from?

I am unhappy that it says he is from Sheffield, as I am 99.9% sure he is from Rotherham. I cannot find anywhere that says this plainly, so this must be checked by someone else.

In the Q & A bit on his website he says he is from Woodall. It's got a Sheffield post code but it's really east of Sheffield and South of Rotherham. For the sake of clarity I'd suggest leaving it as Sheffield! http://www.justinwilson.co.uk/site.php?section=2&part=read&question=47

He may well have been born in Sheffield, as that is the place with the nearest maternity hospital, but his home village, Woodall, is definitely in the Metropolitan Borough of Rotherham - see Harthill, South Yorkshire (Most Rotherham areas have a Sheffield postcode) Jud 22:05, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
