[edit] Photo

I removed the huge photo of Gok with two randoms which was at the top of the page. It'd be nice to have a pic of him there but if you're the owner could you crop it and move it to an appropriate place please? Newartriot 19:13, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

An image can be found here: [1] Cipher (Talk to the hand) 21:35, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Very nice! I'm not familiar with placing images on pages, but I'm not sure we could use it on account of its copyright status? Newartriot 04:36, 3 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Personal life

I removed the section about his personal life as it was all opinion. ("Gok Wan is quite clearly a metrosexual male, combining great fashion sense with fashion knowledge.") Tuwile 19:14, 22 May 2007 (UTC)

I saw him kissing some guy at the Barfly in Camden last night Wafflecop 11:35, 24 June 2007 (UTC)

He definitely is gay, as he's said on Gordon Ramsey's f-word. Does this prevent him from being defined as metrosexual? --Tomathy 20:37, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

What prevents him being called metrosexual is that no one has provided any source which has defined him as such. -- zzuuzz (talk) 20:43, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Metrosexual means an urban straight man who has some characteristics associated with gay men. Gok Wan is gay. Sah10406 20:49, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Half-Chinese

im sure I heard him say "im half chinese but only human"

So? Main page clearly says "Anglo-Chinese"...doesn't that suggest half Chinese? 87.194.44.145 (talk) 13:01, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

Yeah he is, in an interview with Sunday Mirror's Celebs magazine he said his father is Chinese and mother English. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 78.149.210.11 (talk) 16:06, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Hanzi

It would be good to know his name in characters and whether he speaks Cantonese. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.141.103.184 (talk) 23:58, August 29, 2007 (UTC)

[edit] His name

He states what his name translates to on The Friday Night Project...is it worth mentioning on his page? 87.194.44.145 (talk) 13:01, 27 April 2008 (UTC)

He said it translated to "Big Noisy City" right? --LookingYourBest (talk) 13:10, 27 April 2008 (UTC)
