Talk:Frank Farrell (musician)

Long article
This is a pretty long article for such a minor player. Why is wikipedia intent on making everything so wordy and detailed? 65.69.204.131 (talk) 16:46, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
 * Because this is an encyclopedia. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 12:14, 19 August 2011 (UTC)

Just because it's an encyclopedia doesn't mean you can't be concise and a little more selective of what information you decide to include. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.69.204.131 (talk) 20:10, 15 September 2011 (UTC)

Actually, a real encyclopedia is supposed to be concise. Wikipedia editors like to overdo everything. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.114.243.220 (talk) 00:23, 3 October 2014 (UTC)

Birmingham
I've removed the uncited line:

"Farrell was born and educated in the Shirley area of north-west Birmingham."

Shirley is not in Birmingham, and lies outside its southern border. Andy Mabbett ( Pigsonthewing ); Andy's talk; Andy's edits 12:13, 19 August 2011 (UTC)
