Talk:Earl Okin

Notability
Thank you deb, I'm in the process of building this page and asserting importance/significance is one of my aims. The guy has 4LPs/2CDs and a Guinness Book of Records entry for the number of years he's appeared at the Edinburgh Fringe, he definitely qualifies as notable once I manage to put this information up.

Proposed deletion
I forgot about the article, I'll have another try at getting all the information together and expanding it. Earl Okin isn't insignificant though, he's been England's great Bossa Nova exponent for decades. Not having an article on him is like deciding to ignore Segovia, or having a book on Important Composers Of Popular Music From Liverpool and not including Lennon and Macartney. When it comes to English Bossa Nova Earl Okin isn't just a chapter, he's the subject. I'll be a bit more factual in the article, mind. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Cb6 (talk • contribs) 08:18, 22 August 2008 (UTC)


 * Please do work on it because right now it's still speedy eligible. You need to include the information and cite them to reliable sources. Am happy to help TravellingCari  14:10, 22 August 2008 (UTC)

Peacock template removed
I couldn't find anything I'd qualify as peacock language except a couple of extraneous words building up his role in the resurgence of variety shows. I've altered that statement to make it more neutral and removed the template. If anyone still sees the template as necessary, please respond here and I'll work more to fix it. Currently, I'm working under the assumption that the template was applied way back in the revisions, and was simply never removed along the way.
