[edit] Updates

I've corrected a couple of bits of information. I hope that's okay. Feel free to fact check or delete if necessary - Tom Coates

Hey Tom -- there seems to be a fair bit here that needs verification (see WP:V). In addition, the reference to Comment is Free seems premature - you don't seem to show up yet on the list of contributors. I'd suggest that it should maybe be removed from Wikipedia until such time as it's true. Which I hope isn't too far away, as I look forward to reading what you have to say. -- Smatthewman 16:17, 25 May 2006 (UTC)
Yes, Tom. That's an issue. Where I put [citation needed], I think you need to show evidence. (Wikimachine 02:44, 3 October 2006 (UTC))
After other people's comments I'm going to stay away from editing this page. I'll leave it up to other people to decide whether the following are illustrative enough - otherwise feel free to put the page up for deletion.

I agree that the CiF entry is premature. It seems to be a fact that Tom Coates is NOT a contributor to CiF, although he heas contributed to The Guardian

[edit] Moving to the non-technologist section?

Should this page be moved to just 'Tom Coates' as the other Tom Coates on the disambiguation page has been removed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 209.131.62.115 (talk) 07:40, 8 April 2008 (UTC)
