[edit] Personal Info

I removed the date that he immegrated to Canada since that date puts it before his birth... If anyone has a real date please enter it. Gordie 19:11, 19 April 2007 (UTC)

24.82.112.7 I re-entered that he emigrated to Canada in 1958. The info is there, in previous incarnations of the page.

[edit] Raffi Rules

Go Raffi!

[edit] "Child honouring"?

I'm really not sure what this term is supposed to mean exactly. Perhaps a more clear phrase could be used. BigSciZot 02:45, 14 October 2006 (UTC)

Yeah wtf is wrong with advertising to children? They should be treated like any other people.. I mean sure advertising is pointless, but how could it possibly be a harmful thing? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.122.63.142 (talk) 14:56, 18 April 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Internets

Anyone going to write about internet popularity?

[edit] advert tag

This article is written in a very positive tone and is full of external links. Pcu123456789 01:02, 25 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Raffi re-write

I've spoken to Raffi's representatives about the promotional bio that they had submitted. I've been retained to correct the bio and bring it closer into line with wikipedia's regulations. Just a heads up that I'm working on it and I have proposed the following changes to them:

• Standard bio template sidebar
• Sections on early life, career, etc
• Removal of market-speak and superlatives
• Reinstatement of previous article submissions (trivia, parodies), into the bio
• Sourcing proper copyright permissions for his current portrait. forwarded to OTRS

I plan to put up what I have when I get everything together properly, most likely starting Friday, March 9th. Hopefully this will give us a better "starter" article, and I appreciate any feedback or help from the community.
