"Burn before reading"
, would you care to comment on your edit? It removed a number of (ostensible) sources, and I don't understand the summary. -- Hoary (talk) 22:29, 19 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Also, in that edit Ceoil added that a book was "critically acclaimed" (and re-added it after I removed it), with only one source to support the claim — not enough for such a claim in my opinion — and removed a source which considered the book "offensive in its boringness". -Lopifalko (talk) 06:12, 20 July 2020 (UTC)


 * As you have not commented,, may I infer that you wouldn't object to having your edits reverted? -- Hoary (talk) 04:07, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
 * Hi Hoary, yes that's ok; intending to do an article on the book; might return then when have a fuller survey of its reception. Ceoil  (talk) 13:43, 25 July 2020 (UTC)
 * ps, Lopifalko, I was looking at the page as someone who was in shock in learning that Cavanagh had died. I didnt notice your considerable photography article work at the time. pps, the "offensive in its boringness" comes indirectly from Creation records boss Alan McGee, who is always drama focused, but also didn't liked all his bankruptcies being detailed. I think a quote from him on the sleeve was that the book was a view of the 1980s music scene from the POV of the accountants desk, ha ha. Anyway no hard feelings I hope.
