Talk:David A. Stewart

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wikipedian
Rythm1 (talk · contribs) has edited Wikipedia apparently on behalf of David A. Stewart and/or Interscope Records.

Rationale for the above statement: Many of the fan sites have been proven to be registered by Interscope Records or do not seem to be entirely independent. Rythm1 spammed all the sites who are suspect in this edit: [1] Since those websites all contain the same material which has been proven to be false and there are other edits especially on Platinum Weird which are suspect, there is reason to believe that people are editing this page and other pages related to Platinum Weird on behalf of either David A. Stewart and/or Interscope Records. Any removal of sourced data or spreading of the misinformation should therefore be regarded as vandalism and dealt with accordingly.

Is the £3,600 auction price for the Bechstein piano correct? It seems like a very low price, even for a piano without this one's pedigree. Tom Duff 19:27, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Jack Talking (1990) and Heart of Stone (1994) should be the best known single from Dave A. Stewart. Don't you think it would be good to mention them? (details: e.g. http://www.discogs.com/artist/David+A.+Stewart?anv=Dave+Stewart)

[edit] Poor Dave Stewart

The Dave Stewart & The Spiritual Cowboys album was a masterpiece. Greetings From The Gutter, was quite good as well, but this poor guy just doesn't have the notoriety he deserves. Often when i speak of him, people are like, "dave who?". then when you bring up "The Eurythmics, they're like, "Oh ya ya." ... I gave a friend of mine some Dave Stewart stuff, and he returned, "Leonard Cohen's better" ... whatever.

[edit] Playing guitar for..

Alisha's Attic? this site [2] mentions him. or someone with the same name? Is this likely? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by -Anthony- (talkcontribs) 08:13, 8 March 2007 (UTC).

Absolutely, DAve actually helped Alisha's Attic get off the ground, and did a lot of photography for their single and album covers.

See www.eurythmics.me.uk in the discography for more details.

[edit] drug use

The page currently refers to Stewart as "taking copious amounts of recreational drugs". That sort of accusation needs to be sourced, and I am removing for now which is a pityCAVincent 08:10, 2 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Hoax

This article is full of incorrrect statments, repeatedly added by anonymous users. A bot prevents me from restoring the article to what seems to be a correct version. /92.254.216.231 (talk) 14:12, 28 May 2008 (UTC)

The Hoax tag is specifically for articles about non-existant subjects. David A. Stewart is really the guy from Eurhythmics, so this article is not a "hoax", per se. If you have problems with information in the article, register an account then (after the account is no longer "new") edit as usual. - Mdsummermsw (talk) 17:47, 29 May 2008 (UTC)
The Hoax template says "It is believed that some or all of its content might constitute a hoax." Anyone could see that most, rather than some, of the content of this article was more or less unverifiable nonsense. /Dewil (talk) 10:13, 31 May 2008 (UTC)
That tag places the article in [[Category:Suspected hoax articles]], which explains: "The purpose of this category is to list articles that may be hoaxes (prank, fake or joke articles). ... Articles that are not hoaxes but have content or sections of disputed accuracy can have the {{Accuracy}} or {{Disputed}} tag added in appropriate places in the article, which will to draw attention to the disputed content without tagging the entire article as a hoax." - Mdsummermsw (talk) 14:10, 2 June 2008 (UTC)
