[edit] Anno Birkin

Hello. I'm wondering why you replaced the childhood information that I cut from the Anno Birkin article. It's not relevant to the article and makes it sound more like an obituary than an encyclopedia entry. Rnb (talk) 15:53, 4 April 2008 (UTC)

Not sure if i'm doing this "talk" thing right, but i just learned. I added it again, because I thought it had been left out by me on accident. I see what you mean about it sounding like an obituary, but then again in reading wiki articles about other writers and muscians, their character is often mentioned, as that's a vital part to the work they've done. Just to be clear, I used official quotes from others, not my own opinion (i never met these people, much less Anno Birkin). (talk)

I understand your desire to add that kind of thing and it's reasonable to do so, but it seems like the article as is goes over the top with it. Just something to think about. Rnb (talk) 16:09, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
