This article has been mentioned by a media organization:

Harriet Brewis (July 28, 2021). "Craig David's Wikipedia page keeps getting edited to make the same Olympics joke". Indy100. Retrieved July 28, 2021. The page has been corrected, but apparently if you check the Metadata for his Wiki entry you'll see fans have been rushing to change it back, as Twitter user Alan Bell has pointed out. Meanwhile, social media users are loving the edit, and are clearly keen to 'Re-Re-Load' it.

Bo' Selecta! stays[edit]

I've taken the initiative by adding back the deleted selection last seen in this revision of the article. Since there are now three reasonably reliable sources documenting his disdain towards Bo' Selecta!, there should be no reason for anyone (überfan or otherwise) to delete it again. Should it happen, however, I'll be sure to add it back straight away. Now that's proper bo, I tells thee! Righto, I'm off to feed Kes. Mac Dreamstate (talk) 22:03, 30 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Also, just in case anyone was wondering as to who exactly keeps removing all mentions of the show, it seems to be a sole user by the name of NickHSpurs, who has continuously only ever edited Craig David-related articles since 2007! So if you see any of his edits here, check them carefully as they will most likely be him simply objecting to content which is clearly relevant to the article. Can I get a reeeeeeewind? Mac Dreamstate (talk) 00:33, 31 May 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, it happened just as I predicted, so I did exactly what I promised and have promptly reinstated the section after it got nixed without explanation by the ever persistent NickHSpurs. What's even more interesting is that, not only is he an überfan, he also claims to be an official representative of David's promotional team, as stated here. Hence, clearly a WP:CONFLICT issue.

Orphaned references in Craig David[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Craig David's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 07:44, 10 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
