Talk:Paxton Whitehead

[Untitled]
Hang on a sec... didn't this have a way fuller theatre credits section??? Adaircairell (talk) 22:02, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

Adaircairell,

I share your puzzlement and concern. I was extremely surprised that Paxton Whitehead's theater credits section was virtually non-existant. I reviewed the Paxton Whitehead article history and determined after looking at a few previous versions this articel that Mr. Whitehead has not received the credit that he truly deserves. The best single source that I have found for Mr. Whitehead is Paxton Whitehead Biography (1937-). I have been trying to find collaboraing sources for this website.--Dan Dassow (talk) 01:23, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

I have now added an info box, and theatre credits. enjoy!Adaircairell (talk) 15:31, 11 February 2008 (UTC)

Stage Productions in Need of Sourcing
This info in the article is not sourced. It has been tagged in the article saying Sources Needed - but if no one provides sources, it may be removed from the article, so keeping a back-up of this information here on the talk page in case that happens and someone wants to source it and move this info into article (please check first to see if it's still in article or if it has been sourced yet). Couldn't find sources for this info which someone else had added to article. There are IBDB links and such in article but that doesn't cover these UK stage productions. If you know of a source (or sources) that covers the below please add to article or comment below. Thank you.
