[edit] John 'Tonkan' Macdonald
Scottish artist with assertions of popularity and notability but no references at all to back it up. There isn't even a basic discography listed. The only link on the page goes to a website where his music can be purchased. It's a choice between WP:MUSIC and WP:SPAM WebHamster 11:11, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
