[edit] Accepteable references

While I understand Wikipedia doesn't like to use personal websites as a source, I'm struggling to find a profile of him online that doesn't just lift those facts straight from his website. For example, [1] or [2]. A Sydney Morning Herald article contains some facts [3] as does a brief profile of him as a nominee for Australian of the Year [4]. He is clearly notable enough being listed on Australian Living Treasures but what's listed on his website appears to be the basic facts about him. Crico 03:55, 16 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Clergyman

Would Rev. Crews not be best described as Bill Crews (Australian clergyman)? Reverend is an honorific but not a job description. Also, I question the use of the capital initial in 'Reverend', if it is meant as a job description. Eg, 'plumber' or 'scholar' would not be initialized.Alpheus (talk) 23:13, 20 December 2007 (UTC)

I don't have a problem with the proposed change. Crico (talk) 03:19, 21 December 2007 (UTC)
