Gay Icon Project

[edit]

In my effort to merge the now-deleted list from the article Gay icon to the Gay icons category, I have added this page to the category. I engaged in this effort as a "human script", adding everyone from the list to the category, bypassing the fact-checking stage. That is what I am relying on you to do. Please check the article Gay icon and make a judgment as to whether this person or group fits the category. By distributing this task from the regular editors of one article to the regular editors of several articles, I believe that the task of fact-checking this information can be expedited. Thank you very much. Philwelch 20:25, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Archie Fisher

[edit]

Archie Fisher gave Barbara her first recording break, so it seems perverse to write him out of the picture. I have restored him to the Barbara Dickson story. Ogg 13:57, 26 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have removed the reference to "Dolly Town" - I can find no evidence for this. Ogg (talk) 05:57, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Full Circle

[edit]

"Full Circle" was poorly reviewed, not well received. It is heavily influenced by classical music, and is remote from her pop hits. See http://www.folking.com/reviews/reviews/532.shtml Ogg (talk) 06:02, 21 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Once again someone had tried to present "Full Circle" as a success. I loved it, but it had exceptionally poor sales. It is far removed from her popular ballad style. "Mixed reception" is a diplomatic way of expressing it. Ogg (talk) 12:03, 19 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Albums

[edit]

How come three of her flop albums have been given a page each? Surely some of her more successful albums (like The Barbara Dickson Album or All for a Song) deserve one more (and my particular fave - You Know it's Me)?--Tuzapicabit (talk) 22:33, 8 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
